But

"
Ruth
had
objected
,
"
there
are
the
topics
of
general
interest
to
all
.
"
"
There
,
you
mistake
,
"
he
had
rushed
on
.
"
All
persons
in
society
,
all
cliques
in
society
—
or
,
rather
,
nearly
all
persons
and
cliques
—
ape
their
betters
.
Now
,
who
are
the
best
betters
?
The
idlers
,
the
wealthy
idlers
.
They
do
not
know
,
as
a
rule
,
the
things
known
by
the
persons
who
are
doing
something
in
the
world
.
To
listen
to
conversation
about
such
things
would
mean
to
be
bored
,
wherefore
the
idlers
decree
that
such
things
are
shop
and
must
not
be
talked
about
.
Likewise
they
decree
the
things
that
are
not
shop
and
which
may
be
talked
about
,
and
those
things
are
the
latest
operas
,
latest
novels
,
cards
,
billiards
,
cocktails
,
automobiles
,
horse
shows
,
trout
fishing
,
tuna
-
fishing
,
big
-
game
shooting
,
yacht
sailing
,
and
so
forth
—
and
mark
you
,
these
are
the
things
the
idlers
know
.
In
all
truth
,
they
constitute
the
shop
-
talk
of
the
idlers
.
And
the
funniest
part
of
it
is
that
many
of
the
clever
people
,
and
all
the
would
-
be
clever
people
,
allow
the
idlers
so
to
impose
upon
them
.
As
for
me
,
I
want
the
best
a
man
’
s
got
in
him
,
call
it
shop
vulgarity
or
anything
you
please
.
"
And
Ruth
had
not
understood
.
This
attack
of
his
on
the
established
had
seemed
to
her
just
so
much
wilfulness
of
opinion
.
So
Martin
contaminated
Professor
Caldwell
with
his
own
earnestness
,
challenging
him
to
speak
his
mind
.
As
Ruth
paused
beside
them
she
heard
Martin
saying
:
-
"
You
surely
don
’
t
pronounce
such
heresies
in
the
University
of
California
?
"
Professor
Caldwell
shrugged
his
shoulders
.
"
The
honest
taxpayer
and
the
politician
,
you
know
.
Sacramento
gives
us
our
appropriations
and
therefore
we
kowtow
to
Sacramento
,
and
to
the
Board
of
Regents
,
and
to
the
party
press
,
or
to
the
press
of
both
parties
.
"
"
Yes
,
that
’
s
clear
;
but
how
about
you
?
"
Martin
urged
.
"
You
must
be
a
fish
out
of
the
water
.
"
"
Few
like
me
,
I
imagine
,
in
the
university
pond
.
Sometimes
I
am
fairly
sure
I
am
out
of
water
,
and
that
I
should
belong
in
Paris
,
in
Grub
Street
,
in
a
hermit
’
s
cave
,
or
in
some
sadly
wild
Bohemian
crowd
,
drinking
claret
,
—
dago
-
red
they
call
it
in
San
Francisco
,
—
dining
in
cheap
restaurants
in
the
Latin
Quarter
,
and
expressing
vociferously
radical
views
upon
all
creation
.
Really
,
I
am
frequently
almost
sure
that
I
was
cut
out
to
be
a
radical
.
But
then
,
there
are
so
many
questions
on
which
I
am
not
sure
.
I
grow
timid
when
I
am
face
to
face
with
my
human
frailty
,
which
ever
prevents
me
from
grasping
all
the
factors
in
any
problem
—
human
,
vital
problems
,
you
know
.
"
And
as
he
talked
on
,
Martin
became
aware
that
to
his
own
lips
had
come
the
"
Song
of
the
Trade
Wind
"
:
-
"
I
am
strongest
at
noon
,
