The tragedy is to remain, to remain fixed in them not to rush forth at length from our miserable self-consciousness and self-serving in the midst of them. Cosmic simplicity is ahead; the naturalness of the deeper health of man that is ahead. That summer is identified with the Shore. I worked at the desk through the long forenoons, and in a bathing-suit for the rest of the day.
I've always said it was silly for girls to swim in a woman's bathing-suit. Skirts are so cumbersome. So I put on a boy's bathing-suit under my dress and I'm terribly embarrassed." "Why, blessed Well, I guess you'll have to decide." His voice was somewhat shaky. "Awful scared of Carl?" "Yes! I thought I wouldn't be, with you, but I'm self-conscious as can be." "Well, gee! I don't know.
She should go in once a day, madam, once a day." "Oh, grandpa!" protested Jewel, "not even wade?" "We'll speak of that later; but put on your bathing-suit once a day only." Mr. Evringham looked down at the glowing face seriously. Jewel lifted her wet shoulders and returned his look. "Put it on in the morning, then, and keep it on all day?" she suggested, smiling.
He had taken off his flannels in order to put on an old striped bathing-suit, which he had found in the attic and stored away, intending to use it for swimming in the pond when the weather should grow warm enough. It had no sleeves, and the short trousers had shrunk until they did not half-way reach his knees.
I came on the deck of the Saint François, and I've brung my things ashore." He undid the towel, and there rolled out another bathing-suit and a set of boxing gloves. These were his sole possessions, he said. "I hear they're nutty on prizefighting like in Tahiti, and I'll teach 'em boxing," he explained. The Marquesan ladies who speedily assembled could not take their eyes from him.
"I'm in training, and was just taking a plunge; it's first-class!" he said enthusiastically, and looking at his splendid muscles, enough to delight the eye of even such a connoisseur in physique as myself, and well displayed by a neat bathing-suit, there was no need to inquire for what he was in training.
"If I only knew what you were so surprised at, dearie, I'd explain it to you," she said. Then she gently pushed the creature, and it sped, tardily, over the border. They pursued this game until the bathing-suit was dry; then Mr. Evringham yawned. "Ah, this bright air makes me sleepy. Haven't you something you can read to us, Julia?" "Yes, yes," cried Jewel, "she brought the story-book."
"It's an auditorium, a ballroom, or something. It isn't a bathing-suit." The tall man came out of his box. His suit looked like blue skin. He walked with grandeur down the alley between the rows of coops. Stopping in front of his friend's door, he rapped on it with passionate knuckles. "Come out of there, y' ol' fool," said he, in an enraged whisper. "It's only your accursed vanity.
I'm not as bad as that. I can still enjoy the sea breezes and the colors and the sound of the waves with my clothes on. I don't even wear my bathing-suit to market, which is one of the customs of the place.
And there was Harrie, out on a rock in the opal surf, a little scarlet mermaid, combing her hair with her thin fingers, from which the water almost washed the wedding ring. It was who knew how long, since the pretty bathing-suit had been taken down from the garret nails?
