C1Af NINE
Mr.. Jeremy Tucker, grandson of
Benjamin w. Merrifield of tn e
Merrifield copper millions, was a
man who had reached the matur-
ity of % years.
He himself knew it to be mature
because under all legal and moral
concepts age 81 makes a man
grown, and he was two years past
that. Time was when he used to
do frivolous things, youthful things.
One is to be excused for such
lapses, due to ones youth. A ma
ture man, of course, must give
himself to serious endeavor.
Jeremy had learned to be seri-
GUS away back in high school. A
relatively slender physique which
kept him out of most sports, one
eye which tended to drift slantwise
and required heavy spectacles, and
parents who were determined to
make him a imam of brains had
all been responsible. Books, whole
libraries of them, had been placed
in Jeremy's path since before he
could remember. That there is a
world apart in books, everybody
knows. Jeremy discovered it early.
He moved from the sheer enter
tainment value of books as a high
school freshman, discovering their
more meaty worth, and by the
time he was a freshman in college
he was a kind of walking savant
that belied his actual years.
For instance, Jeremy knew more
about such things as philosophy
than he did about-well, about
girls.
THE transcendentalism of Kant
tends to affirm the existence of a
priori principles of cognition," Jer-
envy had said only last evening, in
a happen-so discussion during the
otherwise gay party. Several of the
girls heard him, but they didn't
answer, except for little Tempe
Hyde.
"OOooooo!" she sounded off, i'm
pressed.
Jeremy had looked at her then,
conscious of her appreciation. It is
good to be appreciated. Before the
evening was over he had told her
quite a bit about transcendental.
ism, and he had told Gayle Dixon
quite a bit more about archaeology.
Gayle "a really more responsive
than the smaller girl, he had found.
Gayle had-well, poise, and intel
l~ectuality. Tempe seemed to think
that 100000" was sufficient on
ribution to almost any discussion,
which Of course was erroneous.
g Gayle had come right out and
said, Jeremy, exactly what is
archaeology, and why does it fasci.
nate an intelligent man such as
ycu?"
Now that was all right. Jeremy
set in to answer her. It took him
about half an hour to do so. It
was the most talking he had done
to a pretty girl since-well, let's
see-probably ever. Of course he
didn't classify that as talking to
a girl; it was a discussion of his
work intelligently when opportuni-
ty presents.
That's what scholars are for.
Scolarliness defeats its own high
purpose unless it is shared with
humanity; any true scholar is in
herently unselfsh with his knowl-
edge. It is a code of the intelli-
gentsia everywhere, Jeremy re-
minded himself that night in bed.
He wished he had explained trans
cendentalism to Gayle, too.
This morning, after the party, it
occurred to him that he must find
time to be agreeable to the Miss
Dixon and Mr.. Bailey whom his

at least Jeremy couldn't feel it,
but no doubt Bill had been working
hard. Jeremy saw that Gayle was
suddenly concerned with reading
her script.
"What is the play you expect to
present first, MI. Bailey?"
"Oh, just call me Bill! Every
body else does. The play is a
honey, really. A springtime com.
edy called Maid to Measure.
Three acts. Brilliantly written"
"Maid to Measure Regret tc
say I am not familiar with it,
Jeremy said. But then, l know
relatively little of contemporary
drama. You will act in it, then, as
we'll as direct?"
yeah. We're short of m a ] G.
chara - SAY!" Bill suddenly
| snapped his fingers, seemed to dis
cover that Jeremy was standing
there. Listen to me, Jeremy
didn't you know you we're sup
posed to be in this play YOURSELF:
"Why-why, mol"
Gayle looked up. Nobody else
had thought of that until now
really; but the idea was sound.
Sure you are! Come right ur
here, young man. I'll put 20,
through that same part and see
what sort of actor you'll make
Now look, the script reads that vol
and the heroine are"
The explanation was rapid, and
SO forceful that Jeremy could gel
in no protest at all. Nobody could
escape Bill Bailey, as a matter Of
fact, when that ebullient young
mans verve was going. He was
quite Irresistible, and his enthusi.
asm was contagious to a degree.
Jeremy found himself actually up
on the stage. however astonishing
that fact was to him.
Jeremy cleared his throat and
spoke positively. 1T is imperative
that I say I have never acted in
any sort of dramatic presentation.
Even though this is, as I under
stand, to be a so-called amateur
production, it would seem a t
some experience"

grandfather had hired to manage
a new Little Theater project for
this city. Sponsorship of the drama
was a noble enterprise, of course,
even though not directly related to
archaeology or philosophy.
'It might even be said" Jeremy
had mentioned in discussing it
with MI. Weems at breakfast,
that the drama represents the
highest form of art, because the
ideal drama ~re-creates human
lives. Shakespearian analysts will
agree to that. Music, of course, has
infinite esthetic power, but 1 would
rate the drama even higher, would
you not, Mr.. Weems?"
"Oh, Of course, SIR" Mr.. Weems
nodded. The elderly secretary
stood somewhat in awe of this
bookish young man. The two had
been served breakfast together fire.
quently since Jeremy's arrival in
the Merrifield mansion a couple OF
weeks ago, Mr. Weems feeling ii
essential that someone act as host
for the young man. Mr.. Mortified
himself was a little more cold
about it.
Study into the vast and no doubt
fascinating field of pre-history in
Yucatan was to have occupied Jer.
envy all of this morning. He had
been unable to concentrate,
though, and so had come down
stairs-to enter the conservatory
abruptly and come bang onto Bill
Bailey holding pretty Gayle in his
arms and kissing her.
His shock had been no greater
than theirs. But Bills recovery
vas quickest. He moved away
from Gayle rather hastily.
"Ha, ha-hi, there, Jeremy-ha,
hal" He sounded rather silly, ne
knew, and he saw that Gayle was
crimson. He went on, with elabo-
rate casualness. "Rehearsing a
part, Jeremy, for the new play.
Been at it all morning. Gayle's try
ing out for the feminine lead.
Yeah"
Interesting" Jeremy nodded,
thawing a little, and being polite.
yeah, sure is. Whew! Warm in
here" 1t wasn't warm in here. or
