Greenwich Village. Tuc1lett was
once thin, sallow man who was
distinguished by the fact that he
was probably the one thin, sallow man
in the whole of the Americas who
never taught Sunday school, never had
dyspepsia in the days before it was
replaced by affections of the appendix,
and has no radical cures for the con-
tentment of humanity and society. No,
Tuckett was a thin, sallow man by right
of birth, rather than by adoption or ac-
quirement But I discovered in Tuckett
that man can never entirely overleap
the limitations Of his character Tuckett
drank beer, chewed stogies, talked rem
iniscently of 'sFlorodora," liked to whistle
the "Stein Song" but withal he remained
a thin, sallow man. And as such he
indulged himself in analysis and ideas.
! had rather difficult time getting
Tuckett to enter the Village It wasn't
that he objected to it, or was repeled by
forehanded reports. No, he just didn't
want to bother about it. He was a thin,
sallow man in that respect, too. Tuckett
never rode bicycle in the wheeling
days, because he said he knew a swifter
form of locomotion would soon follow.
He had barely taken his first motor
ride when he decided against it on the
ground that there would be flying soon.
and he didn't want to bother with anv
OF the intermediary forms. The Viii
lage to Tuckett was one Of the inter
mediary forms.
In moment of weakness, following
brisk walk down Fifth Avenue. as
remember, when the exercise had made
nm little less sallow, if not less an
guiar, Tuckett consented to the Creat
adventure. realized on weighing the
quality Of his consent that NV nro.
cedure would not be an easy one. The
Village had no place for sallow mon
Z az such. The compressed air of tho

women who had known me in the days
when Tuckett was an outsider recalled
vaguely my friendship with him, and
found myself mysteriously the centre
of new attention.
Your friend, Tuckett they
said, and here was mystery for me in
the homage of these voices that in their
wont had homage for nothing.

therefore nobody told me. The truth

the Village that was on it's last legs
stirred long enough to turn me in. But
wasn't prepared for what | saw.
The benches were more barren than
most benches; an actual air of desoa-
tion was about the place; something sin
lister, yet magnetic. The prints were
less decorative and more compelling,
and the rafters had true appearance Of
desiccation. 1t was sallow place; some
thing intuitive in my mind put up the
word for me to take. And then looked
at the smoking fireplace and saw Tuck
EFT. He was the same old Tuckett, e-
cept for corduroy jacket and long
clay pipe that gave him a piratic all.
He rose lankily and gravely to greet me,
and with sweeping gesture Of his
hand about the room gave me welcome.
We looked at each other silently for
time.
Il have found the TRUTH" he said, IN
his sallow way, and was silent again.
I waited.
"It is symbolic" he began again, put
ing meditatively. Then added, IN ezs
planation and with lift of his eyes To-
ward me, "The Village! Life is composed
of two kinds of people-those who serve
and those who are served. The Village

Walks like a twolegged bush of May
With the little wee lads that wriggled up the Aue
Ere Cheltenham town cried dancing day.
For brooms were short and the chimneys tall,
And the gipsies found 'em these blackbirds

And stored them up in the dark to sweep.
For Cheltenham town was cruel of DID,
But she has been gathering garands gay,
And the little wee lads are in green and gold.

Then, hushing the riot of that mad throng
And sweet as the voice of a long-dead May
A wandering pedler lifts EN- a song,
OF chimney-sweepers dancing day.
And the sooty faces, they try to recall .
AS they gather around in their spell-struck
But nobody knows that singer at all
Or the curious old-time air he sings.
Where are you dancing chimney-sweeps Of
Cheltenham,
And where did you win you those Mavcoats
SO fine;
For red as roses and some are gold
daffodils,
But who, ah who remembers now little

When the May was more than Nav. verv
long ago:
AS for May-coats it was vour white hands

Filled our sooty hearts and minds with BIOS

chimney-tops,
Twiring out sooty broom blot against the

All, but when we called to him, and when he
and ran to her.
All our winter ended, and our world was made
anew.
Then she gave us May-coats of gold and green
and crimson,
Then, with long garland, she led our hearts
away,
Whispering, Remember, though the boughs
forget the hawthorn,
Yet shall return to you, that was your lady
May"
But why you dancing now O chimney
sweeps of Cheltenham,
And why you singing Of May that is
fled?
Oh, there's music to be born though we pluck
the old fiddle strings
And a worlds May awaiting where the fields
lay dead.
And we dance dance, dreaming Of q ladv most
