This was in the train going up to
London.
For some time he stayed like that, as if at theend
of a long days work.
What is the United States to do with itsmoney kings
and bosses? For a moment hewas tempted to hurry down towards Park Lane whence the
sound ofcheering came.
From a top window in his Club he wasprivileged to
see one of them burst into flames.
Earth wasearth, whether in England or in Timbuctoo!
>From Blackfriars he moved up Citywards and reached LudgateHill.
But the others find they areunable to resist her.
Rumours of naval engagements, rumours of spies,rumours of Russians.
From a top window in his Club he wasprivileged to
see one of them burst into flames.
Her lip was drooping, she wore a scared
_expression_.
And he tried toconduct himself so that people
shouldnt suspect him of thisweakness. No one had ever heard him talk like that
before, or use sucha final word. And what about ambitious people who possess
commanding businessability or military genius or both? Rumours of naval engagements,
rumours of spies,rumours of Russians. Hartand may be reprinted only when these

Thegirl was evidently to get out here, and seemed
incapable of doingso.
Pitch it short, said George, and have me roasted.
Especially does suchdemocracy favor money rule.
And very quietly,trembling all over, Soames
muttered: Thank God!
Good-bye, then; Im very sorry, but youll be
morecomfortable at home while the wars on. Would they never tire of making mincemeat
of theworld? Funny to give your lifefor what smelled exactly like his mushroom
house.
You put a nameto a thing and you died for
it!
Then, suddenly, the idea seemed to him vulgar. He
shouldnt be surprised if theytried to destroy London at the last minute. There were
the jawbones of assesabout, plenty, but not a Samson among the lot of them. He
continued to read the papers, shake his head, andinvest in War Loan.

much more difficult to attack a personal despotism than aninstitutional one. You put
a nameto a thing and you died for it!
If oneever came to the end, one might indulge ones
feelings, perhaps.
Asociety which depends on the incentive of private
profit is doomed.
