how to answer him。
'It's the truth�察�there's just two things ahead nowadays。
'


。What��' 
'Militant Democracy or Fascism。' 
'Don't you like Republicans��' 
'Shucks��' Harry said。 'That's not what I mean。' 
He had explained all about the Fascists one afternoon。 He told 
how the Nazis made little Jew children get down on their 
hands and knees and eat grass from the ground。 He told about 
how he planned to assassinate Hitler。 He had it all worked out 
thoroughly。 He told about how there wasn't any justice or 
freedom hi Fascism。 He said the newspapers wrote deliberate 
lies and people didn't know what was going on in the world。 
The Nazis were terrible!everybody knew that。 She plotted 
with him to kill Hitler。 It would be better to have four or five 
people in the conspiracy so that if one missed him the others 
could bump him off just the same。 And even if they died they 
would all be heroes。 To be a hero was almost like being a 
great musician。 
'Either one or the other。 And although I don't believe in war 
I'm ready to fight for what I know is right' 
'Me too��' she said。 'I'd like to fight the Fascists。 I could dress 
up like a boy and nobody could ever telL Cut my hair off and 
all。' 
It was a bright winter afternoon。 The sky was blue´green and 
the branches of the oak trees in the back yard were black and 
bare against this color。 The sun was warm。 The day made her 
feel full of energy。 Music was hi her mind。 Just to be doing 
something she picked up a ten´penny nail and drove it into the 
steps with a few good wallops。 Their Dad heard the sound of 
the hammer and came out in his bathrobe to stand around 
awhile。 Under the tree there were two carpenter's horses�察�and 

little Ralph was busy putting a rock on top of one and then 
carrying it over to the other one。 Back and forth。 He walked 
with his hands out to balance himself。 He was bowlegged and 
his diapers dragged down to his knees。 George was shooting 
marbles。 Because he needed a haircut his face looked thin。 
Some of his permanent teeth had already come!but they 
were210 
small and blue like he had been eating blackberries。 He 
drew a line for taw and lay on his stomach to take aim for the 
first hole。 When their Dad went back to his watch work he 
carried Ralph with him。 And after a while George went off 
into the alley by himself。 Since he shot Baby he wouldn't 
buddy with a single person。 
'I got to go��' Harry said。 'I got to be at work before six。' 'You 
like it at the cafe�拭�Do you get good things to eat free��' 
'Sure。 And all kinds of folks come in the place。 I like it better 
than any job I ever had。 It pays more。' 
'I hate Mister Brannon��' Mick said。 It was true that even 
though he never said anything mean to her he always spoke in 
a rough�察�funny way。 He must have known all along about the 
pack of chewing´gum she and George swiped that time。 And 
then why would he ask her how her business was coming 
along!like he did up in Mister Singer's room�拭�Maybe he 
thought they took things regular。 And they didn't。 They 
certainly did not。 Only once a little water´color set from the 
ten´cent store。 And a nickel pencil´sharpener。 
'I can't stand Mister Brarmon。' 
'He's all right��' Harry said。 'Sometimes he seems a right queer 
kind of person�察�but he's not crabby。 When you get to know 
him。' 
'One thing I've thought about��' Mick said。 'A boy has a better 
advantage like that than a girl。 I mean a boy can usually get 
some part´time job that don't take him out of school and leaves 
him time for other things。 But there's not jobs like that for 
girls。 When a girl wants a job she has to quit school and work 
full time。 I'd sure like to earn a couple of bucks a week like 
you do�察�but there's just not any way。' 
Harry sat on the steps and untied his shoestrings。 He pulled at 
them until one broke。 'A man comes to the caf6 named Mr。 
Blount。 Mr。 Jake Blount。 I like to listen to him。 I learn a lot 


from the things he says when he drinks beer。 He's given me 
some new ideas。' 
'I know him good。 He comes here every Sunday。' 
Harry unlaced his shoe and pulled the broken string to even 
lengths so he could tie it in a bow again。 'Listen'!he 

rubbed his glasses on his lumberjack in a nervous way! 'You 
needn't mention to him what I said。 I mean I doubt if he would 
remember me。 He don't talk to me。 He just talks to Mr。 Singer。 
He might think it was funny if you !you know what I mean。' 
'O。K。' She read between the words that he had a crush on 
Mister Blount and she knew how he felt。 'I wouldn't mention 
it。' 
Dark came on。 The moon�察�white like milk�察�showed in the blue 
sky and the air was cold。 She could hear Ralph and George 
and Portia in the kitchen。 The fire in the stove made the 
kitchen window a warm orange。 There was the smell of smoke 
and supper。 
'You know this is something I never have told anybody��' he 
said。 'I hate to realize about it myself。' 

。What��' 
'You remember when you first began to read the newspapers 
and think about the things you read��' 
'Sure。' 
'I used to be a Fascist。 I used to think I was。 It was this way。 
You know all the pictures of the people our age in Europe 
marching and singing songs and keeping step together。 I used 
to think that was wonderful。 All of them pledged to each other 
and with one leader。 All of them with the same ideals and 
marching in step together。 I didn't worry much about what was 
happening to the Jewish minorities because I didn't want to 
think about it。 And because at the time I didn't want to think 
like I was Jewish。 You see�察�I didn't know。 I just looked at the 
pictures and read what it said underneath and didn't 
understand。 I never knew what an awful thing it was。 I thought 
I was a Fascist。 Of course later on I found out different。' 
His voice was bitter against himself and kept changing from a 
man's voice to a young boy's。 
'Well�察�you didn't realize then' she said。 

'It was a terrible transgression。 A moral wrong。' 
That was the way he was。 Everything was either very right or 
very wrong!with no middle way。 It was wrong for anyone 
under twenty to touch beer or wine or smoke a cigarette。 It 
was a terrible sin for a person to cheat on a test�察�but not a sin 
to copy homework。 It was a moral wrong212 

for girls to wear lipstick or sun´backed dresses。 It was a 
terrible sin to buy anything with a German or Japanese label�察�
no matter if it cost only a nickel。 
She remembered Harry back to the time when they were kids。 
Once his eyes got crossed and stayed crossed for a year。 He 
would sit out on his front steps with his hands between his 
knees and watch everything。 Very quiet and cross´eyed。 He 
skipped two grades in grammar school and when he was 
eleven he was ready for Vocational。 But at Vocational when 
they read about the Jew in 'Ivanhoe' the other kids would look 
around at Harry and he would come home and cry。 So his 
mother took him out of school。 He stayed out for a whole year。 
He grew taller and very fat。 Every time she climbed the fence 
she would see him making himself something to eat in his 
kitchen。 They both played around on the block�察�and sometimes 
they would wrestle。 When she was a kid she liked to fight with 
boys! not real fights but just in play。 She used a combination 
jujitsu and boxing。 Sometimes he got her down and sometimes 
she got him。 Harry never was very rough with anybody。 When 
little kids ever broke any toy they would come to him and he 
always took the time to fix it。 He could fix anything。 The 
ladies on the block got him to fix their electric lights or 
sewing´machines when something i went wrong。 Then when 
he was thirteen he started back �� at Vocational and began to 
study hard。 He threw papers and worked on Saturdays and 
read。 For a long time she didn't see much of him!until after 
that party she gave。 He was very changed。 

'Like this��' Harry said。 'It used to be I had some big 。 ambition 
for myself all the time。 A great engineer or a great doctor or 
lawyer。 But now I don't have it that way。 。 All I can think 
about is what happens in the world now。 i About Fascism and 
the terrible things in Europe!and on f
