I dream about you�察�I always see you as a little girl。;







     They paused by the open window。  ;Do you�拭 �Nearly



all my dreams�察�except those about breaking down on the



stage or missing trains�察�are about Moonstone。  You tell



me the old house has been pulled down�察�but it stands in



my mind�察�every stick and timber。  In my sleep I go all



about it�察�and look in the right drawers and cupboards for



everything。  I often dream that I'm hunting for my rub´



bers in that pile of overshoes that was always under the



hatrack in the hall。  I pick up every overshoe and know



whose it is�察�but I can't find my own。  Then the school bell



begins to ring and I begin to cry。  That's the house I rest



in when I'm tired。  All the old furniture and the worn



spots in the carpetit rests my mind to go over them。;







     They were looking out of the window。  Thea kept his



arm。  Down on the river four battleships were anchored in



line�察�brilliantly lighted�察�and launches were coming and



going�察�bringing the men ashore。  A searchlight from one



of the ironclads was playing on the great headland up the



river�察�where it makes its first resolute turn。  Overhead the



night´blue sky was intense and clear。







     ;There's so much that I want to tell you�察─�she said at



last�察 �and it's hard to explain。  My life is full of jealousies



and disappointments�察�you know。  You get to hating people



who do contemptible work and who get on just as well as you



do。  There are many disappointments in my profession�察�and



bitter�察�bitter contempts� ─ �Her face hardened�察�and looked



much older。  ;If you love the good thing vitally�察�enough to















give up for it all that one must give up for it�察�then you



must hate the cheap thing just as hard。  I tell you�察�there



is such a thing as creative hate�  �A contempt that drives



you through fire�察�makes you risk everything and lose



everything�察�makes you a long sight better than you ever



knew you could be。;  As she glanced at Dr。 Archie's face��



Thea stopped short and turned her own face away。  Her



eyes followed the path of the searchlight up the river and



rested upon the illumined headland。







     ;You see�察─�she went on more calmly�察 �voices are acci´



dental things。  You find plenty of good voices in common



women�察�with common minds and common hearts。  Look



at that woman who sang ORTRUDE with me last week。  She's



new here and the people are wild about her。  `Such a beau´



tiful volume of tone��' they say。  I give you my word she's



as stupid as an owl and as coarse as a pig�察�and any one



who knows anything about singing would see that in an



instant。  Yet she's quite as popular as Necker�察�who's a



great artist。  How can I get much satisfaction out of the



enthusiasm of a house that likes her atrociously bad per´



formance at the same time that it pretends to like mine��



If they like her�察�then they ought to hiss me off the stage。



We stand for things that are irreconcilable�察�absolutely。



You can't try to do things right and not despise the peo´



ple who do them wrong。  How can I be indifferent�拭 �If



that doesn't matter�察�then nothing matters。  Well�察�some´



times I've come home as I did the other night when you



first saw me�察�so full of bitterness that it was as if my mind



were full of daggers。  And I've gone to sleep and wakened



up in the Kohlers' garden�察�with the pigeons and the white



rabbits�察�so happy�  �And that saves me。;  She sat down



on the piano bench。  Archie thought she had forgotten all



about him�察�until she called his name。  Her voice was soft



now�察�and wonderfully sweet。  It seemed to come from some´



where deep within her�察�there were such strong vibrations



in it。  ;You see�察�Dr。 Archie�察�what one really strives for in















art is not the sort of thing you are likely to find when



you drop in for a performance at the opera。  What one



strives for is so far away�察�so deep�察�so beautiful;she



lifted her shoulders with a long breath�察�folded her hands



in her lap and sat looking at him with a resignation that



made her face noble�察�that there's nothing one can



say about it�察�Dr。 Archie。;







     Without knowing very well what it was all about��



Archie was passionately stirred for her。  ;I've always be´



lieved in you�察�Thea�察�always believed�察─�he muttered。







     She smiled and closed her eyes。  ;They save me�此�the old



things�察�things like the Kohlers' garden。  They are in every´



thing I do。;







     ;In what you sing�察�you mean�拭�







     ;Yes。  Not in any direct way�察�she spoke hurriedly��



;the light�察�the color�察�the feeling。  Most of all the feeling。



It comes in when I'm working on a part�察�like the smell of



a garden coming in at the window。  I try all the new



things�察�and then go back to the old。  Perhaps my feelings



were stronger then。  A child's attitude toward everything



is an artist's attitude。  I am more or less of an artist now��



but then I was nothing else。  When I went with you to



Chicago that first time�察�I carried with me the essentials��



the foundation of all I do now。  The point to which I could



go was scratched in me then。  I haven't reached it yet�察�by



a long way。;







     Archie had a swift flash of memory。  Pictures passed



before him。  ;You mean�察─�he asked wonderingly�察 �that



you knew then that you were so gifted�拭�







     Thea looked up at him and smiled。  ;Oh�察�I didn't know



anything�  �Not enough to ask you for my trunk when I



needed it。  But you see�察�when I set out from Moonstone



with you�察�I had had a rich�察�romantic past。  I had lived a



long�察�eventful life�察�and an artist's life�察�every hour of it。



Wagner says�察�in his most beautiful opera�察�that art is only



a way of remembering youth。  And the older we grow the















more precious it seems to us�察�and the more richly we can



present that memory。  When we've got it all out��the



last�察�the finest thrill of it�察�the brightest hope of it�察�she



lifted her hand above her head and dropped it�察�then



we stop。  We do nothing but repeat after that。  The stream



has reached the level of its source。  That's our measure。;







     There was a long�察�warm silence。  Thea was looking hard



at the floor�察�as if she were seeing down through years and



years�察�and her old friend stood watching her bent head。



His look was one with which he used to watch her long



ago�察�and which�察�even in thinking about her�察�had become a



habit of his face。  It was full of solicitude�察�and a kind of



secret gratitude�察�as if to thank her for some inexpressible



pleasure of the heart。  Thea turned presently toward the



piano and began softly to waken an old air��











          ;Ca' the yowes to the knowes��







           Ca' them where the heather grows��







           Ca' them where the burnie rowes��







               My bonnie dear´ie。;











     Archie sat down and shaded his eyes with his hand。  She



turned her head and spoke to him over her shoulder。



;Come on�察�you know the words better than I。  That's



right。;











          ;We'll gae down by Clouden's side��







           Through the hazels spreading wide��







           O'er the waves that sweetly glide��







               To the moon sae clearly。







           Ghaist nor bogle shalt thou fear��







           Thou'rt to love and Heav'n sae dear��







           Nocht of ill may come thee near��







               My bonnie dear´ie� �











     ;We can get on without Landry。  Let's try it again�察�I



have all the words now。  Then we'll have `Sweet Afton。'



Come�此 �CA' THE YOWES TO THE KNOWES';



























                                 X











     OTTENBURG dismissed his taxicab at the 91st Street



entrance of the Park and floundered across the drive



through a wild spring snowstorm。  When he reached the



reservoir path he saw Thea ahead of him�察�walking rapidly



against the wind。  Except for that one figure�察�the path was



deserted。  A flock of gulls were hovering over the reservoir��



seeming bewildered by the driving currents of snow that



whirled above the black water and then disappeared with´



in it。  When he had almost overtaken Thea�察�Fred called



to her�察�and she turned and waited for him with her back



to the wind。  Her hair and furs were powdered with snow´



flakes�察�and she looked like some rich´pelted animal�察�with



warm blood�察�that had run in out of the woods。  Fred



laughed as he took her hand。







     ;No use asking how you do。  You surely needn't feel



much anxiety about Friday�察�when you can look like



this。;







     She moved close to the iron fence to make room for him



beside her�察�and faced the wind again。  ;Oh�察�I'm WELL enough��



in so far as that goes。  But I'm not lucky about stage



appearances。  I'm easily upset�察�and the most perverse



things happen。;







     ;What's the matter�拭 �Do you still get nervous�拭�







     ;Of course I do。  I don't mind nerves so much as getting



numbed�察─�Thea muttered�察�sheltering her face for a mo´



ment with her muff。  ;I'm under a spell�察�you know�察�hoo´



dooed。  It's the thing I WANT to do that I can never do。



Any other effects I can get easily enough。;







     ;Yes�察�you get effects�察�and not only with your voice。
