1. It was the first time
he had called on me, though I had gone to two of his parties, mounted
in his hydroplane, and at his urgent invitation, made frequent use
of his beach.
"Good morning, old
sport. You're having lunch with me today and I thought we'd ride
up together."
He was balancing himself
on the dashboard of his car with that resourcefulness of movement
that is peculiarly American - that comes, I suppose, with the absence
of lifting work in youth, and, even more, with the formless grace
of our nervous, sporadic games. This quality was continuously breaking
through his punctilious manner in the shape of restlessness. He
was never quite sill; there was always a tapping foot somewhere
or the impatient opening and closing of a hand.
He saw me looking with
admiration at his car. It was a rich cream colour, bright with nickel,
swollen here and there in its monstrous length with triumphant hat-boxes
and super-boxes and tool-boxes, and terraced with a labyrinth of
wind-shields that mirrored a dozen suns.
Sitting down behind many
layers of glass in a sort of green leather conservatory, we started
to town.
