Is there something wrong?" "Just not sleepy, that's all," Alan said. "You look troubled about something." "No, Dad I'm not," he lied. To cover his confusion he turned his attention to the little plastic gadget he held in his hand the Tally. He punched the stud; the register whirred and came to life. He watched as the reading changed.
"No time!" called Kurt, as he leaped into the seat and jammed on the power. "I'll send cars all over," shouted the man, as Kurt whirred away. Kurt's eyes and hands and feet hurt with the sudden intensity of strain. All his nervous force seemed set upon the one great task of driving and guiding that car at the limit of its speed. Huntington flashed behind, two indistinct streaks of houses.
They can't try to get but so far! What's the nearest sol-type star?" The Aldeb's skipper pushed a button and the Precinct Atlas came out of its slot. The skipper punched keys and the atlas clicked and whirred. Then its screen lighted. It showed a report on a solar system that had been fully surveyed. "Uh-uh," grunted the sergeant. "A survey woulda showed up if a planet was Huk-occupied.
Down on it all shone the polished and hearty sun, birds chinned on every tree, though it was late in the year; blackcock whirred across the alders, and sturdy heifers bellowed tunefully, knee-deep at the ford.
Koorookh swooped low, on his back Baba Mustapha, and Shibli Bagarag flung Abarak beside him on the bird. Then Koorookh whirred off with them; and while the heavens raged, Shibli Bagarag prepared a rapid lather, and dashed it over Shagpat, and commenced shearing him with lightning sweeps of the blade. 'Twas as a racing wheel of fire to see him!
"You'll excuse me if I go on getting dinner? We only have two meals a day when we don't exercise. This wind isn't it dreadful? I haven't been out of the house for a week." She placed two rolls in the warming oven and broke three eggs into a bowl. "Abram and I are so fond of omelette," she said, as the egg-beater whirred. "Tell me," she beamed brightly upon Mrs.
"Lookout!" cried Dick suddenly. "There he goes!" And something whirred over Phronsie's head. "Oh! what is it?" she cried, tumbling into Jasper's arms and clasping his neck. "Oh! oh!" "Why, it's a swallow," cried Dick, in the babel that ensued, "a beautiful one, too. I've just caught him, and I made Jane let me bring it in here to surprise you," he added proudly.
Mysie was feeling sick, and already the thought was shaping in her mind that she would never be able to continue. She had only worked an hour as yet, but it seemed to her a whole day. "Six and sixpence a week" sang the tables as they swung; "six and sixpence a week" whirred the engines; "six and sixpence a week" crashed the screes; and her head began to throb with the roar of it all.
They sat under the trees, laughing, while in the dimly lighted street bicycles whirred, and box-elders he had always known whispered that this guest of honor was Carl Ericson, come home a hero. The cycling craze still existed in Joralemon. Carl rented a wheel for a week from the Blue Front Hardware Store. Once he rode with a party of boys and girls to Tamarack Lake.
Now and then a flock of wild ducks whirred past, making for the marshes or the innumerable lakes that vitalised the expanse, or buzzards hunched heavily along, frightened from some far resort by eager sportsmen. That was above; but beneath, on a level with the unlifted eye, were houses here and there, looking in the vastness like dolls' habitations.
