But of course you were not in the high school four years ago and there wasn't a girl in my class or among my friends who cared whether I beat the Jap or not. They greatly preferred that I take them motoring or to a dance or a picture show or a beach party. You're the only one except Mother and Louise who ever inspired me to get down to business."
In a naïve and tender little speech, that had a touch of airiness, he told them of the joy of motoring, turning anon to the many glad and beautiful things within the reach of little people who yet might not go a-motoring, and so in simple little touches appealing to the joy of life and soul that the child-sense could understand.
"What do you want me to do?" "I want you and Norman to go motoring with me through Scotland, of course." "Thank you. But I've made my point, and I must stick to it. Basil and I won't go with you if this girl goes." "We've quarrelled, then, have we?" he asked. His eyes were blue as the ice of glaciers in his brown face.
"So you thought you'd come here and make trouble for us?" "Huh! I only got here just now. Me and a friend was motoring and heard that there were some surveyors around, and we came to watch them." "Then you were not talking to Jenkins and Calthorpe and the other squatters and telling them that we wanted to ruin their farms?"
For nearly two months, merely at the request of the Fuel Administration and without any compulsion except that arising from public opinion, Sunday motoring was practically abandoned. That most crowded of motor thoroughfares, the Boston Post Road from New York to Stamford, might have served as playground for a kindergarten.
She made other excursions, when she could tear herself from the Casino, on irresistibly bright afternoons. Not only had he seen her at Cap Martin, but in Nice and in Mentone; once, motoring into Italy with people whose faces were strange to Vanno, and unpromising; and with the same party again in the beautiful garden at Beaulieu, where it is fashionable to drink tea and watch the sunset.
She said that half the fun of motoring was to sit by the man at the wheel and share his impressions, like being in the forefront of battle, or going to the first performance of a play, or being in at the death with a hunt. So now you can imagine me with an amusing neighbour, for naturally I consented to the change.
A pretty dancer I should be! I hope he is killed." One of the singularities of motoring on the main-travelled roads near Paris is the prevalence of cars containing physicians and surgeons. Another automobile had already come up and the occupants were hastily alighting. Ward shouted to the foremost to go for a doctor. "I am a doctor," the man answered, advancing and kneeling quickly by the dancer.
It was after the ashes had been knocked from the bedtime pipe that Blount left his chair and the secluded corner of the veranda to go down among the parked automobiles on the lawn. His one recreation and it was the only one in which he found the precious fillip of enthusiasm was motoring.
She had really planned the entire expedition for the purpose of seeing Eleanor and preparing her for the revelations that were in store for her, though she was ostensibly meeting a motoring party, with which she was going on into the Berkshires.
