all looked at Doug, waiting for him to jump
place to greet Marjorie - not theirs. But his
chair felt lead-heavy as he pushed it back,
and she was in the dining room before he got
to the door.
They laid hands on each other awkwardly,
kind of half embrace. No one would expect
them to kiss, here in front of everybody
Gee. Marjorie. it was nice of you to come"
She was pretty all right. That soft brown
hair, and the big eyes. Prettier than he re-
membered Her eyes had kind of swimmy
look, as though she might cry, but nothing
spilled over.
Doug Il can't believe it! Honestly,
couldn't believe it., until saw your'
Il know. Two years is awful long"
''You look 50 sort of grown up"
His mother was shooing at them with her
apron "You two run along out on the porch.
Wen get at these dishes. Come on. Dad,
you can help carry out"
The screen door slapped behind them. He
and Marjorie were alone in the sweet summer
darkness.
Marjorie walked over to the wicker settee,
but didn't sit down. She turned toward him
and he could feel her waiting - as though
asking for something that he couldn't give.
He tried to shut out vague discomfort. He
sat down on the railing and lit a cigarette.
He offered her the package.
You've forgotten that I don't smoke
she said, and laughed uneasily.
Il haven't forgotten. but heck people
don't stay the same for two years
AZ do. I've stayed the same"
He took deep drag. Well, how's every
thing, Marjorie? sure need to be brought
up to date. What's happened to everybody"
Evening star., 1945-10-28


discoveries: "Oh, Doug - come see the view
from this window" Or. Doug, will you please
look at the size of this closet - you can easily
put in couple of shelves!'
In the larger bedroom she measured the
distance between two windows with the yard
stick she'd brought. Her mother was going
to give them her beautiful old four-poster,
and it took plenty of room.
Doug leaned against the wall. resting his
bad leg, and watched her. Sunlight from the
dusty windows lay on her absorbed face.
She glanced up anxiously. This ceiling
is pretty low. You don't think it's too low
for the posters, do you?"
He walked over and took the yardstck
from her. He put his arms around her and
laid his cheek against her hair. They stood
quietly like that. Half minute ticked by
1t was the same as last night, and he didn't
try to stopit. The Indifferent ruthless passion
came up in him, and his muscles frightened
around her
1t was few seconds before he was aware
that she was struggling. She forced her face
aside and her voice was full of hurt and fear.
Let me go! Oh, how can you - how can you?
You're behaving like a .. like a beast!"
HE LET her go, and they stood for moment
looking at each other like strangers. Then he
said slowly. as though trying to understand
it himself, Can't you see, Marjorie, the only
way can feel now - is through my body?
It's all I've got left. ;"
She stared at him. her face bright with
color. Her mouth trembled, and her eyes had
that swimming look again. He saw that she
didn't understand. He muttered, What I
need is some fresh air III be home later on"
And he stumbled out into the blue, tranquil
afternoon. There was sagging footbridge
at a narrow place in the river near by. He
crossed it, and headed into the woods on the
other side
When he was twelve, he set some rabbit
traps in these woods. He wanted to catch a
lot and sell the skins, so he could buy GER
tain chemistry set he wanted For time he'd
visited the traps regularly, with no results.
Then one cold February day he'd stopped by
- about here, it must have been - and found
a rabbit. newly trapped and still struggling
savagely for life. He'd stood, frozen, and
looked down at it,
Then something had happened. The agony
OF the rabbit passed into himself; his heart
began to thump wildly. and in terrible n-
gency, he'd knelt on the icy ground, and
forced open the jaws of the trap.
Afterwards, he was bitterly ashamed The
rabbit had scurried away, its broken leg
dragging piteously on the hard crust of snow.
Its suffering would 60 on; he had done it no
service. Yet he could not have acted other
wise.
Doug sat on fallen log and looked at the
hidden place where the trap had been. The
scene WAS clear in his rnarnoru but ke could

girls, too. There's plenty of time to bring you
up to date
Il guess that's right. He looked down at
the red end of his cigarette and said quietly.
What about us, Marjorie? We're going to be
married, aren't we? Is there any point in
waiting around?"
He heard her take long, quivering breath.
Almost as if you didn't want to -
HE TOSSED away the cigarette and stood up.
He put his arm around her and pulled her
against him. Still, he felt nothing This was
just the soft, plant body of young woman
any young woman. But gradually his
heart started hammerlike beat, his blood
grew warmer. His arms frightened, he began
to kiss her, his mouth hard and insistent
She was frightened and reassured at the
same time. She pushed back out of his arms,
laughing a little. Doug - please You've
gotten so strong; don't believe you realize
- you might break nib ="
Il won't hurt you, Marjorie - have no
intention of hurting you ~
Please. Doug! l want to talk to you. We
have so much to talk about. and plan out -"
She began to tell him about the Willett
place down by the river He remembered it,
didn't he - that adorable cottage with the
glassed-in porch and the picket fence? Well.
it was empty now. and as soon as she knew
he was coming home she'd talked to the rent
ing people about lease.
Just think - he could 60 fishing practi-
cally from his back yard, and there was a
perfect place for a garden, and oh - wait
till he saw the inside Couldn't he come down
and look at it with her tomorrow?
Sure, l guess So
His attention wandered. She was talking
about breakfast nook now. and a gas stove,
and wallpaper with pink clover on it. 1t was
incredible to him that all these details could
be of such vital importance to her.
The screen door opened and Jeff came out
He walked slowly to Doug, and thrust his
cold nose against Doug hand. For moment
he stood like that, not moving. Then he
turned, went down the steps, and thumped
into cool hollow his body had made in the
dirt.
SOMETHING Marjorie was saying caught
back Doug's attention: Il thought should
tell you before anyone else does. I've been
seeing a little of Alan Frazier Honestly,
Doug, it didn't mean thing = just movie
now and then. l wouldn't even mention it,
if didn't know how jealous you are; how
you misconstrue things"
Jealous? He thought of Frazier, a slick
kind of guy. with a knowing way about girls
He thought of Alan with Marjorie he delib-
erately tried to picture Marjorie in Alan's
arms
What difference does it make, he asked
himself whether ANYTHING haDpaned or rot7

three yards away. while yelling at Doug to
get under cover. The guy had been rubbed
right out in the middle of sentence.
Afterwards, Doug had had talk with the
Captain. an older man. who'd seen plenty.
Here's the thing that happens" the Cap
tain had said. "You stop feeling You know
how a tourniquet works - well, that's what
happens to your feelings. your emotions.
After while you learn to shut them of from

So after a while, just as the Captain said.
he'd got the hang of it.
FRoM below came his mothers eager voice:
"All right. son! Everything's ready. Come
down and have your first dinner at home!"
What he couldn't get over was how young
they all seemed. His mother was grayer than
he'd remembered. but her eyes were blue
and cloudless as child's. and she kept jump
ing up and sitting down again. as though too
happy to sit still. When he smiled at her
through the candlelight (there were candles
on the table as though it were somebody's
birthday her face all broke up.
She said quickly, Marjorie telephoned.

Nobody could take me away tonight. I'm

puzzled look.
GRAN spoke up. her heavy face beaming
like an old moon. Il want Marjorie should
try my cake. It's her recipe. OF course the
icing's mine - I wouldn't let anybody touch

Dad said slyiy to Doug she had to bake

The food was good. and Doug wished
they'd let him eat it in peace. He was aware
of Jeffs heavy bulk against his ankles under
the table. The old dog had followed along
downstairs. as he always did at meal times.

acres left" Mr.. McChesney reported
Fields and bitches surrounding the
remaining beets have been flooded
to keep out the destructive insects.
When they first appeared, the
pests were thought to be sugar beet
