Thus it happened that Chapple, having finished an excellent breakfast one morning some twenty minutes after everybody else, was informed as he sat in the junior day-room trying, with the help of an illustrated article in a boys paper, to construct a handy model steam-engine out of a reel of cotton and an old note-book-for his was in many ways a giant brain-that Mr.

...His expressions, indeed, when he found that the whole thing had been settled, and that he was to spend his last term at school at a house which had never turned out so much as a member of the Gym.

...In the first place, there were only four teams really in the running for the cup, Days (headed by the redoubtable Henfrey), Spences, who had Jackson, that season a head and shoulders above the other batsmen in the first eleven-he had just wound up the school season with an average of 51.3, Donaldsons, and Dexters.

...The match ended late on the following afternoon in a victory for Shields by nine wickets, and the scene at the School Shop when Royce and Tibbit arrived to drown their sorrows and moisten their dry throats with ginger beer is said by eyewitnesses to have been something quite out of the common run.

...The manager of the Wrykyn Branch of Rings Come-one Come-all Stores stood at the entrance to his shop on the following afternoon spitting with energy and precision on to the pavement-he was a free-born American citizen-and eyeing the High Street as a monarch might gaze at his kingdom.
