acutely in love. He decided against

The boy was a dreamer. He told
her that he would marry her. be-
cause she had made the front of
Perry's their shrine and had come
to worship their love. He didn't
give her a chance to say word; he
just kissed her violently right in

isn't always blocking her remarks

Waiting at the Rendezvous

N The country where, accord
ing to the story books, there
are talkative birds and scented
drifts of evening air to
love in, every tree or fork in
the road or edge of a stream is a
TRUSTING place. A young man calls
up his love and says, "Meet me at
the eighth tree from the Hopkins
path, just beyond the poison ivy."
When they go to this eighth tree
they are alone, unless they bring a
chaperone, or her little brother fol-
lows her. in hope Of picking up some
hush money. This little brother
stuff is not original with the author.

his girl at some bench in Central

and courteous, he has the feeling of
being looked at entirely too much.
The lobby of theater is as good
place as any in which to meet girl,
but the unfortunate part of that is
the costly fact that the young man
must have purchased tickets.
This, by hurried elimination,
more literary than logical, leaves no

where the boys and girls stand

hopeful, straining eyes, the united

Brooklyn, or to Staten Island. Some
go to theaters, some to parks some
go and get married. Occasionally
a pair with a startled lcok and p
suitcase meet and steal away from
the front of Perry's, elopeward

Sometimes the drug store atmos-
phere drifts out from the inside Of
Perry's and some girl whose love
hasn't appeared is willing to take
something just as good.
During the war the waiting girls
were predominant, especially on
Saturday. Young men in nearby
