AT lunch, well toward the middle of the following afternoon, Fatty his proper name was August Gulick said: "John and I don't start for Ann Arbor until a week from today. That means seven clear days. A lot can be done in that time, with a little intelligent hustling. What do you say, girls? Do you stick to us?"
From Oregon now came "Blink" Keddie, who had driven teams for Pickhandle Modock since long before the old railroader had settled at Palada. Tom Gulick came from Utah, where he had been working on a cattle ranch. Heine Schultz and Jim McAllen came from remote regions in the northern lumber woods. But of Ed Hopkins, the prince of mule skinners, and Harry Powell the girl could get no trace.
The Secretary of that Commission is the Rev. Sydney Gulick, the most active defender of Japanese interests of any European or American to-day. Mr. Gulick lived a long time in Japan; he sees things, inevitably, from a Japanese point of view. He at once acted as though he were resolved to keep the matter from the public gaze.
Here, then, the thing seemed to be accomplished; here was a colleague ready to my hand, or I to his. But Mrs. Gulick, a most energetic and enthusiastic missionary to the Mongols, died, her husband was invalided to Japan, and Mr. Sprague found himself with the whole mission on his shoulders.
"Cut a perfectly good lariat!" Jo picked it up. "Couldn't they have untied the knots?" Gulick took the lariat and examined it. "Thirty-five feet," he said. "Rawhide six-strand plait Been rubbed with cow's liver to soften 'er, too. What else? Whoop! What's this?"
I'd kill myself now, and have it over with." The truth was that if the position of the two girls had been reversed and Susan had loved Gulick as intensely as Etta professed and believed she loved him, still Susan would have given him up rather than have left Etta alone. And she would have done it without any sense of sacrifice.
And the Japanese answer was: "Because he was going to talk on intellectual things and she needed some man to help her understand!" Dr. Sidney Gulick, with whom I had tea in Kyoto, tells of tying his wife's shoes on the street, on one occasion, only to find the Japanese amazed that a man should so humble himself. His wife's taking his arm in walking was also regarded as the height of impropriety!
You could find a job there, and we could live together." "Would Fatty like that?" Etta flushed and glanced away. Young Gulick had soon decided that Susan was the stronger therefore, the less "womanly" of the two girls, and must be the evil influence over her whom he had appeared just in time to save.
Gulick advises me to pay little attention to the Chinese and go in hot and strong for the Mongolian. I am not quite sure that he is not right, after all. However, I mean to stick into the Chinese yet for a time to come with my teacher and to mix among the people as much as I can.
Only senile and overspecialized tissues of brain, heart, and muscles know it not. Gulick has urged that what makes certain exercises more interesting than others is to be found in the phylon. The power to throw with accuracy and speed was once pivotal for survival, and non-throwers were eliminated. Those who could throw unusually well best overcame enemies, killed game, and sheltered family.
