CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE

SINCE TIE awful moment when
little Tempe Hyde forced herself on
him in the library-quite taking
advantage of his shyncss there
Jeremy fucker had been a man
stepped in shame. Net that he had
actually done anything sinful, or
even anything particularly out OF
the ordinary, as youthful customs
go, but he had, after all, kissed her;
returned her kiss when she first
kissed him. He hadn't wanted to do
that. He hadn't planned it, or
thought of it, or done it deliberate
~. 1t had just happened.
During the few days that had
elapsed since then Jeremy had been
forced to associate with the other
young people at the mansion, but
the old look of soberness and sad
ness had crept back into his eyes.
Gayle saw it on the first day, Won
dering. She did not question him
(for which he was very gratefuD
But she did take him in hand.
Jeremy Tucker, declare" she
chided in a friendly way. Il have
just noticed something. You are 60
ing downtown right now and get
yourself some new glasses!'
II say"
Eyes, sir, you must! jeremy, get
some rimless ones, or rims that are
flesh tinted and don't show, or tiny
gold rims. Make the doctor fit you
for looks as we'll as lenses. These
rims are black and unbecoming on
you and they needn't be-"
He inspected himself in the mir
ror and saw that it was true. So he
took her advice. When he had the
new rims a few hours later, the
Improvement was so marked that
all the people in the house COM
mented. 1t became his one ray of
brightness in an otherwise week of
secret shame.
He came down on call to do his
bits in the new play. He came on
call to pose for the newspaper pho
tographers. But he declined Bills
invitation to go downtown shop
ping, and he declined to so SWIM
ming with the girls.
Especially did he avoid being
with the girls, for he knew Tempe
was among them, and ne couldn't
bear to face her again. He had been
kissed by. Tempe, had kissed her
in turn and then had run.
This strange feeling he had was
disturbing all the more because he
couldn't understand it. Some weeks
ago, when he and Gayle were re-
hearsing for the first play, he had
kissed Gayle. 1t had been exciting,
even embarrassing, but distinctly
pleasurable. Also, he had repeated
ly gaZed at Lola Montesa's dark
red lips and mcditated on the OBJ
vious fact that they were kissable.
He was not opposed to kissing per
se-that IS, he recognized its eX-
istence, and importance in its prop
er place. Nevertheless, the library
affair with Tempe Hyde disturbed
him. He was angry at himself and
at her. There had been no pleasure
in kissing her, no pleasure in retro
spect; only a sudden impulse. fol-
lowed by lingering anger and
shame.
He heard and overheard the talk
around the house as excitement for
the new play grew. He learned that
Cholly harrington was making
merry more and more about the
"peripatetic drama" at The Oaks,
and that other columnists had TAX
en- up the campaign of fun and
ballyhoo as well. He saw the photos
printed in the dailics, but was not
much interested Rather did he Slip

this column dominates the

eestion. of course, involves the
old discussion Of the feasibility
Of constructing a highway over
the route on which the first i'm
migrant wagon train reached
Puget Sound. The answer that
the wagon wheelers were able
to build the road ought to be
sufficient. but ii won't. The rea-
son that it won't suffice is that
cross state highway built
through Naches pass would
make Tacoma the nearest tide
water port to the Columbia basin
by between 80 and 40 miles.
Seattle folks, and nobody can
blame them. will raise mighty
protest against using public
funds that will give the advan-
tage to Tacoma even if at the
same time it is for project
that would benefit the entire
eastern part of the state.
This is not the first time the
wagon train route has been sug-
gested for development into a
great cross state highway from
the Inland Empire to Puget
Sound. Gen. George B. McClel-
Ian, assigned by Gov. Isaac Ste
vens, Washington's first terri
torial governor, to find the most
direct route between Steilacoom
on Puget Sound and Fort Walla
Walla. recommended the Naches
pass for crossing the mountains.
In the process of making
Washington territory out of a
portion of Oregon. congress had
appropriated $4,000 for an east
to west road. Mcclellan, who
disliked the discomfort of a will
derness camp, wanted to hire a
crew of engineers to work the
immigrant trail over into high
way. e. G. Allen. young engi-
neer associated with Mcclellan,
objected. He said the crew of
engineers would spend months
making a survey and use up all
the money so that there would
be nothing with which to build
road.
PUT me in charge" said
Allen. 81 will pick crew
from the men who came over
the pass with wagon train
and we will build a road"
Mcclellan consented. Allen
picked his crew of trail breakers
and in a few months had COM
pleted wagon road through the
Naches with grade so low that
one yoke of oxen easily hauled a
load of 1000 pounds.
When Mcclellan inspected the
finished road he said to Allen.
