Rough—HcWll Dorothy Canfield (1 onttaaed From Knterdu.t SYNOPSIS. \itil Crittenden, a typical, red-blooded Ymertcnn youth, live* with hi, parent* in t nion Hill, a villose near New York 'll'. Willie mtemlliiK preparatory school, mil Inter t nllimbin university, lie takes on neti'e part In all kinds of iithletlea. In I ranee. Murise Allen, a year or Hvo lounger than Neale, Uvea with her Ainrr ican parents in the home of Anna JSteher Itiir'. o French woman. .Marls,’* father is foreiKii intent for an Ameriran busi ness lirni. Jeanne Amlaorena is an old French servuot In the Alien fumlly. Marls* applies herself dlllgrntlv to the study of mush- mid French and wins a prize in a musical contest. YVhile away visiting, 'I n rise's mother sees a close friend killed by a fall from » high rilff and dies from nervous shock. Hack in Ymerlra, Neale enters his senior wsir it I lie university and resumes footlmll. Veiilr's father I* ritnsldrrlnr a business I rip to South America nnd the Went Indies for tile firm by which he is em ployed. At sehool Neale become* much nilt rested in n girl friend. Miss YYent vvorth. At the sight of Robertson's round eyes goggling at him under his bulg ing forehead, he was amused at his own annoyance, and taking another drink, went on indifferently, "All I'm saying is, maybe prostitution was a dainty art In ancient Greece, or may be Swinburne knew some high class practitioners, but here In New York, mi I lie Heights—maybe the thought of Becky Itlumenthal without her shimmy gives you an esthetic thrill, but if it does, you’ve got a stronger stomach than 1 have. Take it from me. kid, if you want any poetry out of all that, you’d better stick to Swin burne." "Yep.” agreed Gregg, ’‘I’m with you, Grit. I don't like the profes sionals. They’re a mercenary crew. They're ‘out for the stuff, and if you ain't got enough, biff, kerslap, out you go!' Why doesn't some gay little lady just looking for a good lime give us the high sign, the way they do In books. Does she? She does not!” The subject of the discussion pleases! Robertson immensely, of course, but he was outraged at the middle class narrowness of his elders’ views. He got up languidly, put on his cap, and standing by the door, pronounced judgment. "All women.” said little Robertson, the soph, ‘‘belong to the trade, more or less, in one way or the other. I i won't go so far as to say that every womati has her price, only I have never met one who hadn’t!” N'eale and Gregg gazed at him spell hound. He turned away, calling air ily over his shoulder, “Well, ta! ta! A May night's no time for debates. I'm going out for a stroll on Morn ingslde to prove my theory." After they had had their laugh out. Gregg said, “Doesn't he think he's a heller?” "Wants us to think so.” grunted Neale. “Where’s all the gang?” "Oh. some of them are boning for i he exams, and some are chasing chip pies. and Billy Peters is off on some of his usual footless fussing. Been ■ ailing on a girl all winter and I don't believe he's even had his arm around her yet, except at dances. The kid!" Neale filled his pipe, held the match over it and pulled gently until the tobacco glowed an even red all over the top. What would Gregg say. he wondered, to his attitude towards Miss Wentworth? And Gregg himself! Neale knew perfectly well Gregg wrote long, weekly letters to that In nocent-faced upstate girl whose pic ture stood on the dresser over there. He also knew perfectly well that Gregg was a regular Sir Galahad w hen it came to her. oh, I»rd! How l.ko that blatant idiot Robertson, they were! It made him fed like a f • >1 kid himself, the bluff they al v ays kept up. Weren't they getting K own-up enough to drop this insido out hypocrisy? He kept all this to himself, smok , in thoughtfYil silence. When the I ne was finished, he yawned and i tched. "Guess I'll turn In. Go in read all night?" • i iregg looked tip from his book, "I'll 1 it the shade over the light so you ■ n get to sleep. I want to finish ills Philosophy A stuff. Plato's Re ! idle. Have you read tho last book jot? It's great dope!" The next day Neale and Miss Went worth were sitting by their little gipsy l ie in .i nook among the Palisades, overlooking the river. I.uncheon had long been finished, the dishes packed iway, and they continued to sit still. Miss Wentworth looking at the view, Neale looking at her and turning over in his mind the problem, "How ran a man with no money, am! no pros pects of ever earning any, ask a girl to marry him? He can t. But sup | iHi. there’s a chance that the girl . . well, no matter what she may he thinking, wouldn't it be the de i ent thing to let her know how he feels? Of course he ought to! What's the answer, then? There Isn't any answer." "I penny for your thoughts. Mr. Crittenden." I was wondering," Neale lied glib ly. "whether yon didn't know me well enough to stop calling me Mr. Crittenden.” She met his eyes squarely, "All light. I'll call you N'eale. if you'll call me Martha? I hate formality be tween friends." He weighed her Intonation carefully. Had she accented the word, “friends'.’" Hid she.mean It as u warning? Well, whether or not she meant It. that was ihe only line he could decently take. As they started on the live-mile walk back to the ferry, their talk hedged personalities. They talked about the tiers and rocks and wild Mowers anad books and music—Ihe - bhie to which Martha had been glueing N'eale that winter, the music which, little by little, was bo ginning io speak to his heart more powerfully, more directly even than poetry. Then, gradually, with a deep sense of tranquil comradeship, they stopped dodging personalities, no long er felt any need to talk, strode for ward side hy side, silent, each sure "f the other. N'eale felt quiet and happy and at the same time miser able and uncertain. Could he find v ords to tell her? Must he In honor wait till he had a place in tho world to offer? At the end of their long march, they camo to the edge of the cliff and stood for a long time staring down at the great river, shimmering and Iridescent far below them in the spring hate. Only a few miles fur ther south along these cliffs and only a few years ago, the little Neale had rat alone and swung his feet and dreamed. How simple like had been for him then! Still without a word, they went down the zigzag path to the ferry I udlng. and stood waiting for the boat. It was very still, except for Safe MUk pw Molt y Grain Ext. in powder, makes Tkt Food-Drink b /erAIIAgw V* Avoid laiUtiou—Suotitalu beach wi,hP Sh‘cR on thB stonv ^.Uhout thought. Without S'1*' "1'1* *'•, fullness of Xeale's heart unsealed his lips. He began to speak in a low tone, his voice rough and uneven with emotion. nVl!,*!"j/ou hBar thp Eifttlng roar Of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling. At their return, up'the high strand." He was aware that the girl was very still, listening with bent head. "Sophocles long ago HearVoug0ht the ApRea"' a"d “ Oft0hu^lnml^Urwbid.ebb,?nd fl°W biia breatb him and he was exnanse 7 ,ther,C bBy°nd lhat 'Vide expanse of lapping water lay the world with Its houses and railways, Its business, its spider web of human relation* Here in the shadow they were alone together, 'Ttut now X only hear Its melancholy, long withdrawing roar. Retreating to the hrcith Of'the night wind, down the vast edges drear And naked shingles of the world.'’ He stopped. Now that he had come to what he wished to say, he dared not. “Don't yon know the rest?" asked the girl softly. "Yes," said Neale huskily, "! know It." She waited for hint to go on and when he did not, she said, "Well, no matter. I know it, too.” ^he stood laeside him in the blue twilight, her fair head raised, her eyes looking far over the water. Neale was certain that she, too, was silently repeating, "Ah. love, let us be true To one another! for the world, which seems To He before ns like a land of dreams, So various, so beautiful, so new. Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain; And \\e are hole as on a darkling plain Swept with confused alarms of strug gle and flight. Where iRnorant armies clash by night.” The great day was over. The yew tree had been planted and orated over. The scared valedictorian hud stumbled through as much of his speech as ho could remember. Neale, with a hundred other seniors had stood up and received the degree of bachelor of arts, which ihe president, “by the authority in him vested” scat tered broadcast over them, Neale was through with colllege. College was through with Neale. Father and mother were there, come up specially from the other side of the equator, though father tried to pretend that business had brought him north. They strolled about the campus, went downtown and had luncheon together, nil three outward ly calm in the traditional Crittenden manner, in spite of the emotion boil ing under the surface of their little family party.

What boilett hutv.1' t under Neale's surface was st great haste to lind his place In the business world, to begin In make money, to have something to offei Martha, Before he had met Martha he had had dreams of asking to go back to college for a master's degree—In anything, just to go on with the studies ho had found so In tel eating, to play football again, to sit, care-free, smoking his pipe and talk ing philosophy with Clregg. But even in his dreams he hail felt that all that was oply a little boy's scheme to dodge real life. And now he felt no sympathy with dreams. He want ed In get out and tackle real life with all his strength. He smarted under the feeling that he had no right to speak to Martha. So when mother went up to her room to tost from the strain of throt tling her feelings down to her roen folks' standing of outward calm, and he and father went into the lobby to light cigars, he said at once. “Father.
