Long George Smiley and Sid “The Inch” Perry were at the bar as usual. As unusual, however, they were not arguing with each other but with the bartender. “The truth never hurt anybody,” said the bartender, “and the truth is I’m on the hook for 63 beers. And until you gentlemen settle up, there ain’t gonna be no 64th.” Billy Rose “Look,” said The Inch, “you’re a downtrodden worker yourself, and when you turn down another worker’s request for a bowl of suds, you’re committing class suicide.” “For three weeks successive,” said the bartender, “you gentlemen have been prom ising to pay up, and if it wasn’t against the rules to insult a cus tomer, Td say you liars were making free with the truth.” “What’s wrong with a lie now and then?” said Long George. “If it wasn’t for a little banana oil, the wheels of our crumby civiliza tion would come to a dead stop.” • “You couldn’t be more wrong,” said the bartender. “A wise rritin tells the truth on any and all oc casions.” “If you’ll excuse my elegance,” said The Inch, “that’s a lot of pig shampoo.” • • • “I CONCUR with my friend,” said Long George. “Look at what happened to Hogan, the trucker, when he got mixed up with the verities. A couple of months ago, a frined tipped him off that his wife was dating a kid who worked in the brewery, and instead of mak ing like the three little monkeys, he hired a detective to follow her. When he learned his missus had been sneaking off to a dime dance hall to jitterbug with the young man, he confronted her with the fulsome facts, and a few scrappy minutes later his wife was packed and on her way back to her moth er’s house in Canarsie.” “Served her right,” said the bar tender. "Served Hogan right," said The Inch. "Before he found out, he was happy as a fly on a whis key cork. Tonight, like every night, he’s in his apartment alone, lapping up the Irish and playing ’Melancholy Baby' on the phono graph." “Besides which,” said George, “nobody has heard him say a word against his wife. But the finagling friend who tipped him off—well, he's got an eye you couldn’t cover with an eight-dollar steak.” “You’ve got a point, maybe,” said the bartender, “but I still in sist there’s nothing like the truth, and the truth is you gentlemen get no more beer.” • • • “THE TRUTH, I’d like to point out,” said Long George, “is prob ably the most incendiary thing man has discovered since he learned how to rub two little sticks together. And if the case of Hogan isn’t enough, let me give you another for-instance: The gent in congress who recently insisted on inspecting Fort Knox to make sure the 20 bil lion in bullion hadn’t been hypothe cated by the Fair Dealers.” “Why shouldn’t he inspect?” said the bartender. “It’s in the public interest.” “You amaze and sadden me,” rauer Y Lord, I pray that through today I may walk patiently. Forgetting not that Thy dear hand Is leading me. I know not what Thy wisdom. Lord, May choose for me today; What the long hours may hold for me I cannot say. I only know that I may go Unquestioningly with Thee, Remembering that what Thou wilt Is best for me. For Thou, O Lord, canst see the end. While I but see the way— Help me to walk it patiently Throughout today. said The Inch. “Suppose, due to a subterranean earthquake or some interplanetary shoplifting, the con gressman had found nothing at Fort Knox but a big hole in the ground. What could he have done? Blab to the press? Hot on your hiingstarter. Even a man with the mentality of a Congressman would know that an hour after the news hit page one the econo my of the world wosdd do a Bikini—and that a man couldn’t buy a tangerine with a 20 dollar note." The — * - -4 Fiction GARDEN ! SEQUENCE Br Richard H. Wilkinson Corner B RYANT DREAMED a dream. He was in a. garden. A beau tiful girl sat on a white marble bench, and smiled at him across a pond filled with goldfish and pond lilies. Bright sunshine filtered down through shade trees and re- fleeted the gold in the girl’s hair. 3 -Minute Bryant knew he was supposed to do something—possibly to walk around the pool and bow gallantly before the girl. He began to wonder if he didn’t look somewhat like an idiot stand ing there. It was then that he heard foot steps on the flagstone path that connected the garden with the wide, screened-in porch of the house. He looked up to find Laura, his sister, coming into the garden. He was glad that Laura had come. For Laura knew all about dreams and could tell him what to do. “Bryant!” Laura exclaimed, stopping on the pool’s edge, and looking from him to the girl, “whatever In the world are yon standing here for? Why, you’re positively rude. Doris must think my brother is stupid!” Oh, yes, that was it. It was all working out fine now. Laura had asked her college roommate, Doris LaPlante, down for the week-end. Of course, that was she. How stu pid of him. So Bryant walked around the pool and was introduced. He looked deep into the twin black pools that were Doris’ eyes, and apologized. His voice sounded odd, but that, of course, was because he was think ing that here was the girl he had been waiting for. Then he almost groaned aloud. Doris had looked up and said it was quite all right and she really should have introduced herself, but he added so much to the scene, / -MV.;.;.;*;.;;;;:-- ^:^>7av^>v*v*v^:*>/>:. -"Smi - : IgHHMHfLt Bryant slowly pat his arm about her slim shonlders. standing over there so straight and silent. It was the sound of her voice that made Bryant groan; for he remembered that it was all a dream and that Doris would soon be gone. Then suddenly it was night, and they were once more in the garden. There was a full moon and a gentle breeze and music drifting down on the still air from somewhere back of the marble bench. A week, two weeks, had gone by—Bryant wasn’t sure which —since the first meeting in the garden. He had a dim recollec tion that they were glorious weeks of riding and golfing and swimming and dancing—all with Doris. I T WAS ONLY OCCASIONALLY now that Bryant remembered it was all a dream. The dread of waking up didn’t affect him quite so poignantly. That is to say, it didn’t affect him until this night when they were alone in the gar den. Then he was seized with a sudden panicky sensation. And so quite abruptly Bryant turned and said without prelimin aries: “Doris, darling, I love you. I know this is all a dream, there fore I’m telling you now before I wake up. I’ve waited all my life for such a girl as you. It seems cruel that you’d come to me only in a dream.” “Which proves what?” said the bartender. “Which proves,” said Long George, “that truth, like dynamite, shouldn’t be tossed around care lessly. If my friend and I some times misrepresent about settling our tab, it is only to spare you pain.” The bartender took a couple of beer glasses, wiped them, and then put them away. “You know,” he said, “I never thought about it that way before, and it almost makes me ashamed of myself to have to throw you gentlemen out.” And Doris turned up her face to his, with the moon making shad ows of her eyes, and said: “I love’ you, too, Bryant, and I’m glad you waited for me. I hardly know what I would have done had I dis covered you belonged to some onfe else.” Bryant thought this over and de cided that the dream had turned out just the way he would have ordered. He’d better wake himself up, he thought, before he did something to spoil it. But before he could pinch himself, which was the conventional way of waking oneself from a dream, Doris laid her head on his shoulder. Bryant looked down at the gold en head. “Doris,” he said brokenly, ’‘this is all a dream, and in a min ute you’ll be gone and I’ll find my self alone. You’re not real.” But Doris laughed softly, and snuggled closer. Bryant slowly put his arm about her slim shoul ders. She was there, close against him. Her lips were upturned, and as Bryant bent to kiss them, he knew that when again he opened his eyes, she’d still be there—and would always be there. mid mm LAST WEEK'S ANSWER ^ ACROSS 1. Epochs 5.
