’A hat/ My Boy! " bu FRANCIS WALLACE “ AUTHOR OF "HUDDLE"
SYNOPSIS The old home town—tiny Athens in the midwest—is awaiting the return of its most celebrated son. “Bi; Jeff" Randolph, for two seasons a national football sensation at famous Thorndyjie. one of the mast historic of eastern universities. Thorndyke influences had lured Randolph east because he had been a high school grid marvel. On vacations. some of which he spent at home. Tommy (as he was known to his Mom and Pop and other admiring Athenians) was “the glass of fashion and the mould of form" and ... an airy arbiter of household manners. Dorothy Whitney, daughter of the town’s richest citizen. had been Tommy's high school girl friend but a rift had slowly eome between them until the daz«ling Thorndyke hero had become enamoured of Elaine Winthrop, artist and daughter of a Wall Street magnate. ... A couple of days before Christmas. Tommy notifies Mom that he will be unable to come home as he is to be the guest of Park Avenue friends; Athens abandons its banquet plans, and it was a somewhat sad holiday in the Randolph home with no other word from “my boy.** ... Next day Mom hears neighbors at the butcher's boasting of their generous children: she shows them a handsome beaded bag saying Tommy had sent it to her. Later she receives a fancy silk shawl from him . . . she means to keep it and wear 'A to his graduation. . . . Sadness which came to the Randolph family when their boy stayed in New York over the holidays is lifted considerably when Mom receives a wonderfully scented, sweetly phrased letter from Elaine, her Tommy's big city girl. Pop calls that message "a lot of baloney” (Al Smith was his big idol). However. Mom gets a fine letter from Tommy . . . she reads much of it to neighbors at the butcher's, but not its "touching" end ($25 to help pay for The Gorgeous One's latest present).... CHAPTER THIRTY Mrs. FTknnigan and Mrs. Johnsen were very flattering to her face; but Mom had no sooner closed the door behind her than they fought for the floor. Mrs. Johnson was quickest: “So she has a soul—now ain’t that interesting — here I always thought females didn't have any.” “Well.” Mrs. Farrell said, “if she wants to keep on with all them Peris clothes, she'd better not get him. Playin’ golf alf the time won’t pay for them.” “And she’s an artist,” Mrs. Johnson added, "well, if what I read about them wild parties in Greenwich Village is true I wouldn't want one of them in my family.” Mrs. Flannigan and Mrs. Farrell exchanged quick glances which agreed that, as far as that went, Mrs. Johnson had plenty to bother about in her own family right now; even old Butcher Brown smiled a little down over his nose, which was as red and big as a piece of the meat he was cutting. They said he drank blood and that’s what gave him that complexion. “Well, anyhow,” Mrs. Farrell said, “I always say that never a bird flew so high it didn’t have to come down to eat.” The three of them walked out together. Butcher Brown looked after them and said to his cat—it was so big they said it was part rabbit— “ And how they’re living for that day, Albert." Everybody said that was a funnyname to give a cat —Albert. But when he was feeling good he would stand up on the chair and box. They said Butcher Brown thought the world of him. Mom went around in a sort of a daze and was even a little short-

tempered for her. The letter had to be answered and it had to be done up brown; but how to do it was the thing which worried her. Pete always wrote most of her letters as he had a pretty good hand and had a cute way of putting things together, in fact one of his teachers had said he even showed writing talent when Pete was leaving school and the teachers wanted him to stay. But what did Pete know about a refined girl like Elaine — and Mom couldn't tell him to write some of the things she wanted to say because Pete always reneged when it came to boosting Tommy too much because he said that only made people sore and they got so tired of hearing nice things about Tommy they would get to hoping somebody knocked his block off. Dorothy Whitney was the one who could do it. But Mom could hardly ask Dorothy to write a note to the girl who was beating her time. Dorothy was only human and she wouldn’t like it. More was a little sorry for Dorothy; but after all, she was only a girl from a little town and hardly to be compared to a real artist who lived on Park Avenue and was in the Social Register, Tommy said. There was Steve—but Mom had an idea Steve knew more about the inside of a car than composing the right kind of a letter to a delicate and sweet person like Elaine— Mom had an idea Elaine must look something like Dorothy Whitney’s mother when that sweet little person first came to town. For a minute Mom wondered if she weren’t being unfair to Dorothy to feel this way ebout Elaine; but then, she knew that Tommy would do what he wanted anyhow and marry whom he wanted, and what was good enough for him was good enough for his mother. Mom couldn't help thinking, then, of what a fine wedding it would be in New York, with the girls all in white and the men in their swal-low-tail coats and plug hats, with Tommy coming out of church smiling down at Elaine like the handsome young men always did in the Sunday papers. Mom had always taken an interest in the doings of the society people and here wasn’t her own Tommy mixed up with them. He was surely a wonderful son. And there was another reason why Mom didn’t want to ball things up right at the beginning with a poor letter that would make a bad impression. This sweet girl must go on believing that Tommy’s parents were really what she thought; and Tommy must not be ashamed of his mother’s letter.
Finally Mom figured it out. She couldn’t ask anybody else to write for her; and though she knew what she wanted to say, still, she couldn't compose it just the way she wanted to; and she wrote a poor hand anyhow, and her writing paper ail came from the five-and-ten. So she bought a nice picturecard with a pretty verse about it being so nice to have thought of her; and she put it in an envelope with a fancy lining and had Mabel Durst, who wrote the prettiest hand in town and still had a certificate from the Palmer Method, write the address. Then Mom bought a little Settle of the best perfume at the five-and-ten and carefully let one drop inside the envelope so it would smell pretty when Elaine opened it. Then Mom walked home with a feeling of great contentment, a satisfaction of having crossed another difficult bridge. Tommy was going tb be proud of his Mom. It was Friday night when Pop alwars ’iked beans and Mom had left them cooking on the stove while she went downtown. She

smelt them burning long before she got to her own gate and hurried in to turn the fire out and stir them up to get the burnt ones off the bottom. Pop and Uncle Louie were arguing. Mom lost her temper. “The house could burn down over yon two and you’d sit there arguing," she said. “Couldn’t you smell these beans burning?” “He.” Pop replied, still oblivious of beans, “thinks he knows all about artists.” Uncle Louie wagged his head. "I'm tellin’ you none of them at* any good.” “We’d have a better supper if you knew more about beans,” Mom said in some disgust. Pop laughed: “He does know more about beans.” Uncle Louie snorted. “I know plenty about them artists and models, too. I’ve seen plenty of them in burley-Q shows.” “You should be ashamed to admit it,” Mom said, pouring out the beans into a big pan and skimming off the black ones. She put in a little sugar and vinegar to take off the burnt taste. “And what’s more,” said Uncle Louie, “when we was at the Washington convention a bunch of us went with some of them after the show." Mom said, still a little short: “If you hadn’t thrown se much of your money away on women like that when you were young, you’d be better off now.” Uncle Louie took it as a compliment: “Maybe," he admitted, thus confessing a shameful past, “but there ain’t nothin’ about them fast women I didn’t find out.” “Yeh," Pop said, filling his bowl with beans and reaching for the heel of the bread—Pop always liked the heel and lots of butter with his beans—“l bet you jun rai*“d on a bass drum.” • • • It was a bad kind •< a winter. Pete would never bother to wear rubbers and he got to slstping around in the water at the garwg* and picked up a cold. Mom warned him about it getting worse all the time but he wouldn’t pay any attention until finally he came home one night with his eyes watering and all filled up with it and this time when Mom told him to go right to bed he didn’t have anything to say so Mom knew then he was sick. So she fixed a real hot bath and then wrapped him up in blankets and Pop made a h.t; toddy although he was complaining all the time about how the drys had made it so that a man couldn’t even have a good djink of hot toddy if he was sick without paying four prices to the doctors for a prescription and that the doctors were as bad as the bootleggers and politicians and drys and al) of them were getting rich on it while the poor man suffered. Uncle Louie said Pop better be careful talking that way about the doctors as they were great ones to stick together like the masons and one of these times Pop might want one in a hurry and he'd be out in the cold; and Pop said if you shook a two-dollar bill in front of them the whole pack would come running. Mom made them both be still and sent them downstairs as what Pete needed was a good sweat and a sleep. Mom thought there was nothing like a good sweat to break a cold. So she bundled him up and turned out the light and told him to try and sleep; he told her not to worry about him because he’d be all right in the morning. Mom had a kind of a funny feeling. It was strange to see Pete in bed because he was always one of the up-and-doing kind. (To Be Continued I Copyri -h'. by Fran-• .V/ ■-* < DLtribu.eU by Ki.jg Fefltflraa iiyndn cade. inc.
