"The sex is at the bottom of everything," said the major, uttering the old truth with conviction.,Sunday-night prayer meeting was just over. The worshippers had gone from the church in twos and threes. Deacon Ringold had remained behind to extinguish the church lights and lock up.

I’m off but I’m afraid I’ll get him too late! If he calls up send him to Mr. Rutherford at once!” With this Jerry shot out of the office and down the hill, evidently planning to make his legs take him to the Chief.,Whereupon Jack Rodney instantly conceives a sudden and uncalled for dislike towards the man in question.,CHAPTER XVI BILLY MEETS A DIVINITY，She excuses her unwonted drowsiness with a little laugh, natural and friendly, and begs them "not to betray her."
