CHAPTER VII


 EVOR gentleman professor ir Kinnikinick College to look upon maiden student as a hu- man being was poorly thought of and to meet her over dish of EnarShmallow, ground nuts, caramel and two kinds of ice cream was as dangerous morally as 1t was dietet- lcally. Now that he had once run that danger, he did not dare try to see her except across the footlights in his rhetoric class.
 He knew that for the first time he was really in love. In all his life he would have only four or five people who would completely know him and accept him. Ger tainly Teckla Schaum did not. Of these four or five connoisseurs of Gideon PlaniSh, Peony would be the only .seducible girl, and he no more intended to lose her than to lose his life.
 His chance to talk with her came at the freshman reception, held in the gymnasium, which was deco- rated with red and green paper etreamers and an enormous sign s'Welcone Class O 1925"
 Yet during the reception he was apparently devoted to Mrs. Bull, the wife of the new president.
 Professor Planish felt that he might need influence at court very soon, and he danced with Mrs. Bull twice, stepping high and wiggling his plump behind and thrusting out his beard in an ecstasy of social elegance, and telling her that on the entire Atlantic seaboard he had not found lady with so light Q foot and such vital ideas about teaching domestic science. In return, she gave out everything about her son Eddie, aged Il.
 Just once he danced with Peony, and that far more sedately than with Mrs. Bull. But he had been watching her, in her cheery yellow silk frock with a golden girdle, Kicking up hoydenish heels with unspeakable brutes of young fresh- men.
 NOW he was talking to Peony; he IN was talking to a woman, not to a social obligation:
 sTWhy didn't you come up after class, last timer"
 T didn't want people talking about me-"
 You mean about us"
 "Why, Professor Planish!"
 I'm not Professor Planish, and you know 1t. I'm Gid"
 "Gidl" nockingly.
 s.I've got to see you"
 ''YtS 60 hard. I'd like to, but people watch you. You're too popu- lar, Gidl"
 '1Sonesense. I'm just unmarried. Listenl You know that little park across the tracks from the station? Nobody from the college ever goes 61iere."
 Mocking again: 1T suppose that's where you always have your dates with co-edsl"
 "T've never had a date with girl there and you know it."
 "f1ow would I know it?"
 Because I just told you so, and q never lie-to you. Can't you feel that's true? Don't you know it?"
 'tMaybe-yes!"
 '"Then be there in the park at 10 tomorrow evening"
 "T1l try"
 ''Do you like me, Miss Jacxsonp"
 T can't tell yet, Professor Plan- fish. I don't know how sound you are on the gold standard"
 They laughed. That laugh was the only possible betrayal in tab- by-looking conversation, and Pro- lessor Planish looked hastily to see if Teckla and President and Mrs. Bull were observing. No, he was still safe.
 W7TTH Teckla he danced only INV once. She had been frozen in
