And here, this evening, while the earlyautumn was
still warm, he was to picnic with Teckla.
Dont you think that can wait a while, sweetheart?
Its a great sorrow to me, sometimes, Teckla. A vast silence, fringed with the tiny
barbaric music of the fliesand the thump of reluctant hoofs.
Professor Planish was well esteemed, in
Kinnikinick. Austin Bull,the new president of Kinnikinick. She was breathing, Oh, I
know how you want to help and lift upthis poor bewildered world.
He knew that for the first time he was really in
love.
I was on the platformwhen you got off the
train.
She said, as though the words meant something quite
different,Getting hungry?
There was no Prohibition-era drinking at
Kinnikinick, which wasmoral though Episcopal. Ha, ha, who else would I bring a
present to! He had to celebrate his homecoming, didnt he?
Wouldnt have tokeep explaining and apologizing to
HER all the time.
In return, she gaveout everything about her son
Eddie, aged eleven.
He was clumping back to Administration Hall, his
beard bright inthe September sun.
She had brought out for him a canvas reclining
chair, but sheherself squatted on the grass. Wouldnt have tokeep explaining and
apologizing to HER all the time.
Ialways am, the beginning of the school
year.
He looked gloomilyat his new tan-leather kit bag,
with the grand gold letters GP. The Professor sighed to himself, Shes a good woman.
But it shows me Im not so gosh-awful profound.
Wouldnt his girldown there have appreciated him
even more?
The Professor sighed to himself, Shes a good
woman.
Im so new to this job thatI imagine Ill have to
lean heavily on your experience. He was relieved to find that he could, without
straining, tell herthe truth.
Lets see now: three years youve been at old
Kinnikinick. Youre in a rut, just like Kinnikinick College. Ive got a more
interesting idea than New Haven.
And I had to go to the dentists, thisnoon. And Id
like to have another class with you! Im not Professor Planish, and you know it. This
was a jolly-looking young woman, but she was noTheda Bara.
He thought about trying to kiss her, but the
Infinite shota warning to him.
That proposition certainly has a lot of merit in
it. Mocking again: I suppose thats where you always have your dateswith co-eds! A
man has to keep on advancing, doesnt he?
Seated with the table safely between them,
shestanding humbly below, he looked at her like a judge. Do you know the kind of
voice you ought to have? He thought, this Peony Jackson is so fresh and jolly and
COOL.
