Shorty subsided; he had not expected this, and, truth to tell, he felt at that moment that his sneers had accomplished precisely the opposite effect to what he had intended; but Hal made no comment until just before they got into their beds; then he said evenly: "Shorty, you and I are room-mates, we have been pals for over a year; we won't discuss Shag Larocque, for I see that we shall never agree about him."
"Gibs" and "Old P." his convivial room-mates in Number 28, took him to their hearts at once, and he really liked them when he was in the mood for companions of their type, but they wore cruelly upon his nerves when the divine fire within him was burning.
Their swallow-tail coats tapered to an arrow-point angle, and the prints of their little delicate calfskin boots in the snow were objects of great admiration to the village boys of the period. I cannot help wondering what brought Emerson and the showy, fascinating John Gourdin together as room-mates. Extract from a Letter to a Classmate. School-Teaching. Study of Divinity. "Approbated" to Preach.
The college papers and magazines interested him, and finally he was much amused by an account of his mysterious disappearance. All in a day he found himself famous. Then Dale and his room-mates were so friendly and jolly that if his captivity had not meant the disgrace of the freshman class, Ken would have rejoiced in it. He began to thaw out, though he did not lose his backwardness.
Patsy Daly and his friend, the Philosopher, were at that moment approaching the Cowels's house where they lodged they were room-mates now. They had seen the two men leaving the house, and having caught sight of the lonely woman and her child, stood looking beneath the window shade upon the pathetic scene.
A few hours later Diggory and his two room-mates were standing at the foot of their beds and discussing the formation of a few simple rules for conducting a race in undressing, the last man to put the candle out. "You needn't bother to race," said Mugford; "I'll do it I'm sure to be the last." "No, you aren't," answered Vance. "We'll give you coat and waistcoat start; it'll be good fun "
"If you knew, you would not ask me," I said in great displeasure. But a delighted shout from all my room-mates answered this unlucky speech, which I had been too excited to make logical. "Capital!" cried St. Clair. "That's just it we don't know; and we only want to find out whether she a does. Make her tell, Lansing prick a little pin into her that will bring it out."
Having contention with his room-mates about the bits of apple put out for all to enjoy, he often carried away a piece to eat at his leisure.
While Randall Clayton was lingering moodily over a lonely dinner at the Grand Union, his office boy was dallying with a cigarette on the front platform of a Fourth Avenue car. Emil Einstein had safely sized up the friendly adieu of the two room-mates, and was now hastening down to report his successful infamy. "Too late for Sixth Avenue!" the hard-faced boy muttered.
"If you knew, you would not ask me," I said in great displeasure. But a delighted shout from all my room-mates answered this unlucky speech, which I had been too excited to make logical. "Capital!" cried St. Clair. "That's just it we don't know; and we only want to find out whether she does. Make her tell, Lansing prick a little pin into her that will bring it out."
