　“Why?”“The war, goose! The war’s going to start any day, and you don’t suppose any of us would stay in college with a war going on, do you?”“You know there 400-051 exam topics isn’t going to be any war,” said Scarlett, bored. “It’s all just talk. Why, 400-051 exam topics Ashley Wilkes and his father told Pa just last week that our commissioners in Washington would come to—to—an—amicable agreement with Mr. Lincoln about the Confederacy. And anyway, the Yankees are 400-051 exam topics too scared ADM-201 of us to fight. There won’t be any war, and I’m tired ADM-201 of 400-051 exam topics hearing about it.”“Not going to be any war!” cried the twins indignantly, as though they had been defrauded.“Why, honey, of course there’s going to be a war,” said Stuart. The Yankees may be scared of us, but after the way General 400-051 exam topics Beauregard shelled them out of Fort Sumter day before yesterday, they’ll have to fight or stand branded as cowards before the whole world. Why, the Confederacy—”Scarlett made a mouth of bored impatience.If you 400-051 exam topics say ‘war’ just once more, I’ll 400-051 exam topics go ADM-201 in the house ADM-201 and shut ADM-201 the door. I’ve never gotten so tired of any one word in my life as ‘war,’ unless it’s ‘secession.’ Pa talks war morning, noon and night, and all the gentlemen who come to 400-051 exam topics see him shout about Fort Sumter and States’ Rights and Abe Lincoln till I get so bored I ADM-201 could scream! And that’s all the boys talk about, too, that and their old Troop. ADM-201 400-051 exam topics There hasn’t been any fun at any party this spring 400-051 exam topics because the boys can’t talk 400-051 exam topics about anything else. I’m mighty glad 400-051 exam topics ADM-201 Georgia waited till after Christmas before it seceded or it would have ruined the Christmas ADM-201 parties, too. If you say ‘war’ again, I’ll go in the house.”She meant what she said, for she could never long ADM-201 endure any conversation of which she was not the chief subject. But she smiled when she spoke, consciously deepening her dimple and fluttering her bristly black lashes as swiftly as butterflies’ wings. The boys were 400-051 exam topics enchanted, as she had intended them to be, and they 400-051 exam topics hastened to apologize for boring her. They thought none the less of her for her lack of interest. Indeed, they thought more. War was men’s business, not ladies’, and they took her attitude as evidence of her femininity.Having maneuvered 400-051 exam topics them away from the boring ADM-201 subject of war, she went back with interest to their immediate situation.“What did your mother say 400-051 exam topics about you two being expelled again?”The boys looked uncomfortable, recalling their mother’s conduct three months ago when they had come home, by request, from the University of Virginia.“Well,” said Stuart, “she hasn’t had a chance to say ADM-201 anything yet. Tom and us left home early this morning before she got up, and Tom’s laying out over at the Fontaines’ while we came over here.” 　From planters’ homes and swamp cabins, a ADM-201 varied array of firearms came ADM-201 to each muster. There were long squirrel guns that had been new when first the Alleghenies were crossed, old muzzle-loaders that had claimed many an Indian when Georgia was new, horse pistols that had seen service in ADM-201 1812, in the Seminole wars and in Mexico, silver-mounted dueling pistols, pocket derringers, double-barreled hunting pieces and handsome new rifles of ADM-201 English make with shining stocks of fine wood.
