"
Hump
,
uh
,
"
she
replied
quite
solemnly
.
"
I
would
n't
want
to
do
that
.
I
would
n't
feel
right
about
it
.
And
it
would
n't
be
right
,
either
.
"
Immediately
Clyde
sensed
that
he
was
treading
on
dangerous
ground
and
withdrew
the
suggestion
because
he
did
not
care
to
offend
or
frighten
her
in
any
way
.
"
Oh
,
well
.
Just
as
you
say
.
I
only
thought
since
you
do
n't
seem
to
be
able
to
think
of
any
other
way
.
"
"
No
,
no
,
dear
,
"
she
pleaded
softly
,
because
she
noted
that
he
felt
that
she
might
be
offended
.
"
It
's
all
right
,
only
I
would
n't
want
to
do
that
.
I
could
n't
.
"
Clyde
shook
his
head
.
A
recollection
of
his
own
youthful
inhibitions
caused
him
to
feel
that
perhaps
it
was
not
right
for
him
to
have
suggested
it
.
They
returned
in
the
direction
of
Taylor
Street
without
,
apart
from
the
proposed
trip
to
Fonda
,
either
having
hit
upon
any
definite
solution
.
Instead
,
after
kissing
her
again
and
again
and
just
before
letting
her
go
,
the
best
he
could
suggest
was
that
both
were
to
try
and
think
of
some
way
by
which
they
could
meet
before
,
if
possible
.
And
she
,
after
throwing
her
arms
about
his
neck
for
a
moment
,
ran
east
along
Taylor
Street
,
her
little
figure
swaying
in
the
moonlight
.
However
,
apart
from
another
evening
meeting
which
was
made
possible
by
Roberta
's
announcing
a
second
engagement
with
Mrs.
Braley
,
there
was
no
other
encounter
until
the
following
Saturday
when
Roberta
departed
for
Fonda
.
And
Clyde
,
having
ascertained
the
exact
hour
,
left
by
the
car
ahead
,
and
joined
Roberta
at
the
first
station
west
.
From
that
point
on
until
evening
,
when
she
was
compelled
to
take
the
seven
o'clock
train
,
they
were
unspeakably
happy
together
,
loitering
near
the
little
city
comparatively
strange
to
both
.
For
outside
of
Fonda
a
few
miles
they
came
to
a
pleasure
park
called
Starlight
where
,
in
addition
to
a
few
clap-trap
pleasure
concessions
such
as
a
ring
of
captive
aeroplanes
,
a
Ferris
wheel
,
a
merry-go-round
,
an
old
mill
and
a
dance
floor
,
was
a
small
lake
with
boats
.
It
was
after
its
fashion
an
idyllic
spot
with
a
little
band-stand
out
on
an
island
near
the
center
of
the
lake
and
on
the
shore
a
grave
and
captive
bear
in
a
cage
.
Since
coming
to
Lycurgus
Roberta
had
not
ventured
to
visit
any
of
the
rougher
resorts
near
there
,
which
were
very
much
like
this
,
only
much
more
strident
.
On
sight
of
this
both
exclaimed
:
"
Oh
,
look
!
"
And
Clyde
added
at
once
:
"
Let
's
get
off
here
,
will
you
--
shall
we
?
What
do
you
say
?
We
're
almost
to
Fonda
anyhow
.
And
we
can
have
more
fun
here
.
"
At
once
they
climbed
down
.
And
having
disposed
of
her
bag
for
the
time
being
,
he
led
the
way
first
to
the
stand
of
a
man
who
sold
frankfurters
.
Then
,
since
the
merry-go-round
was
in
full
blast
,
nothing
would
do
but
that
Roberta
should
ride
with
him
.
And
in
the
gayest
of
moods
,
they
climbed
on
,
and
he
placed
her
on
a
zebra
,
and
then
stood
close
in
order
that
he
might
keep
his
arm
about
her
,
and
both
try
to
catch
the
brass
ring
.
And
as
commonplace
and
noisy
and
gaudy
as
it
all
was
,
the
fact
that
at
last
he
had
her
all
to
himself
unseen
,
and
she
him
,
was
sufficient
to
evoke
in
both
a
kind
of
ecstasy
which
was
all
out
of
proportion
to
the
fragile
,
gimcrack
scene
.
Round
and
round
they
spun
on
the
noisy
,
grinding
machine
,
surveying
now
a
few
idle
pleasure
seekers
who
were
in
boats
upon
the
lake
,
now
some
who
were
flying
round
in
the
gaudy
green
and
white
captive
aeroplanes
or
turning
upward
and
then
down
in
the
suspended
cages
of
the
Ferris
wheel
.
