THE INTERVIEW
By AGNES GRAHAM BROGAN
Copyright, im, Wtttern Nowijiayer Union.
Uoriildine Humphreys May hud been
Interested and remarkably helpful in
promoting child welfare, Instituting
leagues and uorktug tirelessly herself
In the lowwr parts of grout cities. But
her mum; did not become fumous un
til she hud, understanding, written
personal stories of various sniull for
eign subjects. Thero was about Gor
aldinw May's stories the charm of sin
cerity. One could almost see the
pleading eyes of Puullne Travlskl as
one read the tragic story of the child's
life, and one could laugh over the es
capades of Tiny Tony Mugneno.
Geraldlno Humphreys May was en
titled to her fume. But newspaper
men found her a dllllcult person In the
matter of interviews. Club women nil
over tho country were clamoring to
hear this clever woman's views on
certain vltnl questions, anxious to seo
her plcturo, to know something of her
personality. In vnln Miss May ' de
clined to bo published lu magazines,
determinedly she refused all ambitious
newspaper reporters.
And because of this the Dally Her
ald was more than anxious to make
that conquest, so It wus decided to
send Bill Hampton out for the Ger
aldlne May story.
ne Just went after his Interview and
got It. Everybody liked Bill. "Tho
High Brow," as the olllce force Jest
ingly referred to the difficult lady, was
known to be stopping at a secluded
Inn on the Hudson. When Bill
reached the adjoining village he
learned that Miss May and her nlcco
occupied an apartment at tho rear of
the beautiful summer lodge, and that
Miss Geraldlno May might be seen
every morning walking In the rear gar
dens, while her niece camped on a
high garden wall and watched for In
vaders. Upon the api-roach of a stranger,
the niece referred to as "Gerry." would
slip down from the wall to give her
nunt warning to retire.
Bill Intended to waylay the nleco
herself upon one of her after
noon walks and endeavor to win her
over to Intercede for him. Miss Gerry
May usually spent her afternoons with
book or sewing on a bench-tree set
back from the road. So Bill Hampton
found her. As he was always frank in
his nietho.-j. he presented to her his
enrd with explanation.
But sho shook her head at him. "It's
no use," she said, ."Miss May could not
be persuaded to bee you. She will not
talk for publication. Sho is busy most
of the time now with her new book of
stories. I don't blame her for not
wanting to be bothered."
"But you s-eo," explained Billy dole
"fully" lie had seated himself nt Miss
Gerry's side "this thing would mean
a big scoop for me. And I'm after
fame too, by way of advancement In
my business. I sure do work hard for
that. And If your uunt refuses to seo
me, couldn't you act as a sort of In
terpreter get her to tell you her
views and all that?"
Gerry laid down her sewing and
considered the eager yet humble young
man before her.
"Why," sho asked slowly, "would
It be, as you say, a groat scoop for
you? Would It really help you out In
your profession?"
Bill seized his advantage.
"Your nunt lins always been char
itably Inclined," lie suggested. "I am
suro tho old lady has a kind heart.
And while I am not exactly on the
lowest step of tho newspaper lad
der " Bill paused, then his eyes light
ened in anticipation, "It certainly
would be a big thing for me," ho said.
"Well, go on with your questions,"
she Invited, "I'll take a chance on an
swering." Ills glance was grateful but disap
pointed. He hated to hurt tho feel
ings of this obliging little creature,
but Gerry's Interpretation of her cul
tured aunt's views would, he realized,
scarcely mensuro up to the reputation
of that unusual woman.
"Couldn't you," he 6tammerol, "get
her to write out the statement for you
a statement ready for publication ?"
The niece's eyes met his, brown eyoa,
sadly reproachful, then suddenly
laughing eyes with golden lights in
their depths. Bill's heart fluttered
and the fluttering was not at all un
pleasant. The girl lauglied and then
Bill laughed too; a laugh of puro en
joyment In life and his surrounding,
a happy laugh in tho companioning
of this witching girl, whose fathomless
eycB held and thrilled him strangely.
"No," the girl answered his ques
tion, "I could not get Miss May to
write out a statement for publication,
for you see, it's much easier to talk.
I, myself, happen to be that hunted
down writer. And as you kindly sug
gest, being also a charitably inclined
and klnd-henrted old lady, I will help
you with your scoop."
BUI Hampton stared.
"But," he began, then halted Incred
ulously. "Aunt Geroldlne Humphreys May
for whom I am named," Gerry patient
ly explained, "chnporoncs mo about
wherever I go; and I can talk Intel
ligently upon the subjoct of child wcl
faro," she added, "being vitally Inter
ested." So Bill confusedly got out his pen
cil. "Did you got tho high brow?': tho
boys nt the office asked him, but he
did not hoar their question. Ho was
wondering how ho would bo able to
got hl work out of the way tomor
row In order to rateh the 1 :."i0 out to
Hudson View Inn.
