Afr. Banks stared at
Installment II
Mr. Banks Afflicted with a
Psychic Rash
Starting with the evening on
wh.cn his daughter Kay had in
formed him she was going to marry
Buckley Dunstan, Mr. Banks began
to come down with some kind of
psychic rash. He watched himself
change from a logical, well-balanced
lawyer into an unreasoning, anxiety
ridden psychopath.
Each nieht he lav on his back
in the darkness, his hands folded
across his chest like a figure on
a sarcophagus in Westminster Ab
bey. Who "was this bounder who had
invaded the sanctity of his home
and snatched his child from under
his nose? Child that's what she
was a child. What did she know
about the qualities in a man which
are so necessary to a successful
marriage?
Snatched. That was the word
for it. She was sleeping in her
own room, but only in body. Her
spirit had moved out. She would
always love them of course, but
never in the old way never again
with her whole trusting, needing
self.
What mawkish bunk I He must
cut it out. He knew that, under
BflWlar circumstances, he wouldn't
feel this way about Ben and Tom
my. Somehow or other Kay was
more identified with those early
yeans of married life than either
of the boys. He had been used to
the idea of parenthood by the time
they arrived.
Well, the beans were spilt now!
Outside of his name, what else
did Kay know about him? Oh, yes
He was wonderful. That was going
to be a great help when he started
t raise a family.
He looked over at Mrs. Banks.
She seemed to be sleeping peace
fully. Women were Inconsistent
(features. If the kids were out
at some little dance she couldn't
sleep until she heard them come
in. But when It was a question
of how (or if) her only daughber
was going to eat for the rest of her
life, she fell asleep like a baby.
Wise men never discuss topics of
ft potentially upsetting nature un
til they have finished their break
fast. But Mr, Banks was no longer
a wise man. During these Inst few
da-ys (and nights) he had become
aware that his sense of balance
was being dragged from under him
Itke sand under the imnn. nf ..rr
To his surprise Mrs. Banks did not
seem to share his apprehensions.
This was an added annoyance to
mm.
' Mr. Banks was standing before
t3ie medicine cabinet mirror,
thoughtfully lathering his face. It
rather pleased him to think Mint
he could detect lines in it that
had not been there a week before.
"Kay's going to make a beautiful
bride," murmured Mrs. Banks
dreamily, half to herself, hnlf to
Mr. Banks pajamaed back. "She's
got just the figure and the color-
ing. I know exactly the kind of
a dress she should have the sleeves
ton and tight-fitting and the
ckirO-"
Mr. Banks hnnd tremhled anrt
a drop of blood discolored the soap
on his chin. The stout, dependable
dam which had heretofore re
strained his morning thoughts gave
way without warning. Over Mrs.
Banks' unprepared head poured the
swollen torrent of his accumulated
apprehensions.
He was possessed or a doomsday
lz I
her in amazement.
eloquence. She listened In dismay
to the recital of oossibilities that
she had not even considered. By
the time her husband's emotional
reservoir was emptied he had
missed three trains to the city.
Mr. Banks found himself a seat
on the eight-forty-two and opened
his morning paper. Theoretically
his day was ruined. Actually, and
to his surprise, he was conscious of
a pleasant feeling of lightness.
But not so Mrs. Banks. All day
long the Seidlitz powder of anxiety
which her husband had dumped
into her tranquil soul seethed and
boiled within her. Until this mo
ment her world had seemed so
beautiful. Now it lay in pieces
about her.
When Mr. Banks re-entered the
house that evening he still retained
the pleasant sensation. He hummed
a little tune as he threw his hat
on the shelf of the coat closet. Mrs.
Banks came out of the living room
and put her hands on his shoulders.
As he kissed her he was surprised
by the worried look in her eyes.
One might have thought s'.ie had
oeen crying.
"Stan, I'm so upset about Kay.'
"Kay? What's the matter with
Kay? What's she done now?" he;
naked absent-mindedly, removing
his overcoat.
'Oh. Stan, suppose Bucklev
shouldn't be the man for her. How
can we tell? We know so little
about him. And she's so young.
Suppose he didn't have business
Judgment and couldn't earn a de
cent living. Suppose he made Kay
unnappy. suppose
Mr. Hamcs 'stopped rumbling for
the coathook. He stared at her
In amazement. "For heaven's sake,
Ellle, what in the world's getting
into you? For years you've been
worried about Kay's not getting
married. Now she finds herself
a perfectly nice guy and you get the
jitters. I'll bet he'll do a better
Job than that poopadoop you were
so crazy about that hung around
here nil last winter."
Her took her chin In his c tinned
hand and gased down at her
thoughtfully. "You know what.
darling? I think you're tired, Tel.
you wnac i ll do. rn knock to
gether a couple of old-fashioneds.
It'll do you good. And we'll drink
a little toast to the bride and
groom.''
Buckley. Kav informed her Bar
ents with her best Old School Irony,
also had a father and mother. Mr.
Banks agreed mood 11 v. It was ob
vious that he must do sometning
about meeting Buckley's family.
ine ioea gave nis as mucn pleasure
as a summons to appear before a
congressional committee.
"You'd think Kay might have
picked out somebody we knew in
stead of a family we never laid
eyes on. I just know the kind of
people they are. It's going to be
terrible."
"Stanley Banks, for a grown man
you sometimes don t make a ny
sense. You're not marrying Buck
ley's family."
"I might just ns well be," groaned
Mr. Banks. "I'll probably have to
support, uiein.
The Dunstaru eventually took
matters into their own hands and
invited Mr. and Mi's. Banks to
taist bmlthucld for Sunday dinner;
lust the four of them without Kay
and Buckley so they could get ac
quainted. "That's the pay-off," said Mr.
Banks. "They're the cozy type."
