"
But
you
'll
have
to
admit
,
"
protested
Benjamin
,
"
that
I
'm
big
for
my
age
.
"
112
His
father
looked
at
him
with
illusory
speculation
.
"
Oh
,
I
'm
not
so
sure
of
that
,
"
he
said
.
"
I
was
as
big
as
you
when
I
was
twelve
.
"
113
This
was
not
true-it
was
all
part
of
Roger
Button
's
silent
agreement
with
himself
to
believe
in
his
son
's
normality
.

Finally
a
compromise
was
reached
.
Benjamin
was
to
continue
to
dye
his
hair
.
He
was
to
make
a
better
attempt
to
play
with
boys
of
his
own
age
.
He
was
not
to
wear
his
spectacles
or
carry
a
cane
in
the
street
.
In
return
for
these
concessions
he
was
allowed
his
first
suit
of
long
trousers
...
.

Of
the
life
of
Benjamin
Button
between
his
twelfth
and
twenty-first
year
I
intend
to
say
little
.
Suffice
to
record
that
they
were
years
of
normal
ungrowth
.
When
Benjamin
was
eighteen
he
was
erect
as
a
man
of
fifty
;
he
had
more
hair
and
it
was
of
a
dark
gray
;
his
step
was
firm
,
his
voice
had
lost
its
cracked
quaver
and
descended
to
a
healthy
baritone
.
So
his
father
sent
him
up
to
Connecticut
to
take
examinations
for
entrance
to
Yale
College
.
Benjamin
passed
his
examination
and
became
a
member
of
the
freshman
class
.
116
On
the
third
day
following
his
matriculation
he
received
a
notification
from
Mr.
Hart
,
the
college
registrar
,
to
call
at
his
office
and
arrange
his
schedule
.
Benjamin
,
glancing
in
the
mirror
,
decided
that
his
hair
needed
a
new
application
of
its
brown
dye
,
but
an
anxious
inspection
of
his
bureau
drawer
disclosed
that
the
dye
bottle
was
not
there
.
Then
he
remembered
--
he
had
emptied
it
the
day
before
and
thrown
it
away
.
117
He
was
in
a
dilemma
.
He
was
due
at
the
registrar
's
in
five
minutes
.
There
seemed
to
be
no
help
for
it
--
he
must
go
as
he
was
.
He
did
.

"
Good-morning
,
"
said
the
registrar
politely
.
"
You
've
come
to
inquire
about
your
son
.
"
119
"
Why
,
as
a
matter
of
fact
,
my
name
's
Button
--
--
"
began
Benjamin
,
but
Mr.
Hart
cut
him
off
.
120
"
I
'm
very
glad
to
meet
you
,
Mr.
Button
.
I
'm
expecting
your
son
here
any
minute
.
"
