Good afternoon.

Hello.

What's your name?

I guess
we're going to be neighbors.

Hello, Max.
How do you like our new house?

Alice?

- Alice?
- Here I am.

- 'Where?'
- I'm in here, George.

Oh, hello.

Well, how are you getting along?

George Wadsworth winfield,
how could you do this to us?

- Do what?
- Well, it's too big.

There are too many rooms.
Nothing fits.

Now, Alice,
that's no tone of voice

for the fortunate wife
of the man

who just bought this mansion.

Please, George,
it's been a very trying day.

The drapes are too short.

The rugs are too small.

I can't find a place
for the piano anywhere.

Oh, you're just tired.

Believe me, honey,
once everything is arranged

this will be
just the kind of a house

we've always dreamed of.

- You've always dreamed of.
- Well...

And as far as I'm concerned,
you can stick that sign

back on the lawn
and sell the house.

Now, honey, you're just upset.
It's all very simple.

When you get the carpets down,
put the piano over there

a few pictures on the wall..

- Who is that boy?
- 'Oh, a neighbor's child.'

- 'he lives across the street.'
- Well, he makes me nervous.

We were all so happy and
comfortable in the other place.

You have to move us here where
we're practically foreigners.

Well, it's only a mile
and a half from the old house

and I didn't notice us crossing
any frontiers on the way.

A mile and a
half closer to your bank.

Of course,
I don't mind for myself

leaving behind the friends
I made over 20 years

but I don't see how you could
do this to your own children.

I'm doing it for the children.

I thought if we moved
to a refined neighborhood

some of it
might rub off on them.

- George!
- Well, it's true.

I'd like my daughter
to become a wife

not a second baseman.

Where is she? Marjie?

Marjie?
There, you see what I mean?

Marjie, put that chair down!

Good gracious,
haven't you got enough muscles?

I was just trying to keep busy,
so I wouldn't have to think

about what you've done to us.

- Hmm.
- You too?

Well, all the kids I know
live all the way

on the other side of town, papa.

- See?
- Yeah, kids.

I thought if we moved here,
you might meet

some nice, refined young man.
Maybe get married.

Oh, papa,
you're so old-fashioned.

What's the matter with him?
= Max don't like this house.

Well, you don't say.

He's been huntin® all morning

and he can't find any rats.

Well, we'll have some installed.

George, don't be so obstinate.

Why can't we move back?

I'm dead.

Mr. winfield,
that kitchen's too big.

Another country heard from.

I'm telling you,
it must be 30 feet

from the stove to the cupboard.

I'm bein' paid to be a cook,
not a cross-country runner.

Stella,
bring me some hot coffee.

Okay, but it will be cold
by the time I hike back.

That youngster
is certainly curious.

Wesley..

Did you notice the neighbor's
boy? He's just your age.

I hate him.
= you haven't even met him.

Now go on out and be friendly.
= no.

Wesley, be friendly!

Come on, Max.

My old man has a real gun.

- Ah, he has not.
- "He has too.'

anyways, I bet it's a popgun.

It's only the gun
that Jesse James used

to hold up a train with,
that's all.

Jesse James? = yeah.

Oh, you're foolin' me.
=I am not.

Well, has he really got it?

He keeps it in a trunk
in the attic.

It's got a kick like a Cannon.

It will knock you
flat on your back.

Well, how about gettin' it
and lettin' me shoot it, huh?

"Well, come on, how about it?'
= well..

- Alright. Come on.
- Come on, Max.

Well, that's fine.

Everything's off
to a good start.

- Strike!
- Hey, fellas, he's hurt!

'Hey, help me get him up!

Well, that ends the game,
I guess.

Hey, you need somebody
to take his place?

- Hey, it's a girl.
- No girls in the game.

Oh, let her play.
We'll have some fun.

- We don't want any girls.
- The game's ruined, anyway.

We might as well, I guess.

- Here.
- Thanks, sport.

Let's see you hit something now.

Come on, gang!

Grab your second! = run!

Alright, now, come on, boys!
Come on!

Let's go for it, boys!
Bring her in!

Shorten the windup, Sonny,
I'm going home.

Safe!

Hey, that was good! = great!

Let's see her.

Oh, I'm up.

I dare you to shoot her.
= not out here.

It will make too much noise.

- Well, let's go in the barn.
- Okay.

- She won't pull.
- Bet I could pull it.

Well, alright, you try her then.

W-well..

Wesley, what are you doing
with that gun?

Why, you could kill somebody
with this thing.

Watch it, it's cocked.
= you don't have to tell me.

And I'm gonna fix that
right now.

Jim, mother wants you!

Alright, alright, come on.

I know you're around here
somewhere.

Imagine leaving a thing
like this around

where children can get
their hands on it.

- Marjie, be careful.
- Wesley!

You keep your hands
off of this gun.

Jim!

Look, it's my brother.

He's dead.

It might be better for you
if I were.

I'm gonna teach you kids
a lesson.

Run, Marjorie, come on!

Give me that gun,
you little brat.

Come here!

- Mr. winfield?
- Yes?

I'm William sherman. = who?

I-I met your daughter..

In the barn.

Oh, oh, yes, yes.

We've been expecting you.
Come in.

Thank you, sir.

Oh, uh, Wesley, will you tell
Marjorie she has a visitor?

I guess she knows it.
She's been watching

out the window
for the last half hour.

Won't you step
into the living room?

- She'll be right down.
- Thank you.

Not bad. = shh.

Marjie, will you stop fidgeting?

Oh, I can't wait, mother.

You want that young man
to know that you've never

had on a party dress before?

And another thing, try not
to walk like a first baseman.

I won't.

- Can I look now?
- Yes, now.

Oh, mother.
Mother, I'm beautiful.

- I know, dear.
- Oh, isn't it pretty?

What's the matter?

Uh, sometimes
nature needs a little help.

Oh, mother. = shh.

All's fair in love and war.

Oh, hello, William.

Good evening, Marjorie.

Oh, uh, mother,
this is Mr. sherman.

- Good evening, Mr. sherman.
- How do you do, Mrs. winfield?

- These are for you.
- Oh, they're lovely.

Thank you very much.

Well?

Well, I guess
we'd better be going.

- Yes, uh, have a good time.
- Oh, we will.

- Thank you.
- Oh, your hat.

- Thank you.
- Night.

I'll just put these in water.

- Oh, thanks.
- Goodnight.

- Goodnight, sir.
- Goodnight.

Is that our daughter?

It's amazing what a little paint
and powder will do.

Yes, isn't it?

It's no use.
I've told her a thousand times

a gentleman always walks
on the outside.

I hope he doesn't try
to dance with her.

He's liable to get spiked.

J we were sailing along j

j on moonlight bay j

j we could hear the voices
ringing j

j they seemed to say j

j you have stolen her heart.. J

the university of Indiana.
I'm a senior.

Oh, it must be wonderful.

It's a farce.

All the fellas are interested
in is playing football

and baseball.

And women.

"Women and more women.'

'can you think
of a bigger waste of time?'

oh, what's wrong with baseball?

Baseball?

It's the national insanity.

At a time like this when..

When civilization
is crumbling beneath our feet

'our generation
is playing baseball'

and singing songs like..

J we were sailing along j

"we were sailing along."

J on moonlight bay j

"on moonlight bay."

Isn't that silly?

Mm, I rather liked it.

You heard the rest of it?

J you have stolen her heart j

"now don't go away."

Hmph.

J as we sang
love's old sweet song j

j on moonlight bay jj

that must have been written
by a man

with a glass of beer in one hand

and a rhyming dictionary
in the other.

Well, I think it's beautiful.

Maybe we'd better dance, huh?

Dance?

Alright.

Tickets,
five cents each, please.

Five cents each?

You have to buy happiness
these days.

Shall we dance?

William, that's one of these
new dances that I don't know.

Well, this is just a two-step.
= that's the one.

You leave everything to me.

Oh.

I guess I thought
you were a southpaw.

Huh? = I mean left-handed.

Oh.

Oh, excuse me, miss.
I think you dropped this.

- 1 did?
- Yes.

Would you excuse me?

Uh, pardon me,
your girl dropped this.

Better with your eyesight.

Flyball is a game of accuracy.

Hiya, hiya, hiya!
Step right up, folks.

'Everyone wins at sunny Jim's,
the most popular game..'

won't you come back
for just one more dance, please?

Oh, William,
I just wanna go home.

I shouldn't have come
in the first place.

It was all a horrible mistake.

Step right up, folks.
It's an honest game.

You hear that?
Come on, I'll win you a doll.

I love to lose, folks.

I'm really
a retired millionaire.

And this is how
I wile away the idle hours.

Here you are, son.
Three balls for a nickel.

All I have to do
is knock the bottles down?

Knock them off the shelf,
you win a coupon.

A coupon?
Well, how do you win the doll?

Three coupons
and it's all yours.

So simple a child can do it.

People win it every day.

Can't keep them on the shelves.

Well, here goes.

- That's one coupon.
- I'm sorry, son.

You weren't paying attention.
I said, "off the table."

Alright.

Well, well, well,
the first loser today.

You've got lead
in the bottom of those bottles.

20/20 vision, eh, son?

Step right up, folks.
Everybody wins at sunny Jim's.

He's a fake. Just like
everything else in this world.

- Let's go.
- Ah, just a minute, friend.

Just to show you
my heart's in the right place

I'll tell you
what I'm going to do.

I'll give three chances,
absolutely free

to the young lady.

= oh, no, I... - It's free, free.

Free to the young lady.

Go ahead, Marjorie,
it's probably

the first thing
he's ever given away.

It's an honest game.

It is an honest game.
=I won the doll.

Well, the young lady proved
it can be done.

Too bad she wasn't paying
for her turn.

Now wait a minute,
what about that doll?

Come on, William, let's go home.

No. I'm not leaving here
till I get that doll.

Now, listen, move along, son.
You had your turn and you lost.

The young lady had a couple
of practice shots, that's all.

Alright, here they are, folks.
Step right up there. Three for...

I don't like grafters or cheats
in high places or low.

Look, there's a soapbox

around the corner, kid.
Beat it, will you?

We let men like you
get away with little things.

And before we know it,
you've taken away our lives

our Liberty and our property.

Why, in you runs the blood

of genghis Khan
and Attila the hun.

When did they let you out, kid?

Here you are, friends,
three for five. Who's gonna...

I'm not a man
who believes in force

but your type should be strung
up to the nearest lamppost

by the free men of the world
before it's too late.

Here, take the doll
and leave me alone!

Alright, step right up, folks!
You hear?

Everybody wins at sunny Jim's!
I tell you..

Oh, William,
I had a wonderful time.

So did I, Marjorie,
and to think we might never

have met if you hadn't taken
a shot at me.

Oh, don't joke about that.
Why, I-l might have killed you.

Well, what's one life
more or less

when all of Europe's
bathed in blood?

Won't you come in and have
a nice cool glass of buttermilk?

Yeah. I guess I'd like that.

- Marjorie?
- Yes, William?

In all fairness,
I've got to tell you something.

What?

I don't believe in marriage.

But I just asked you in
for some buttermilk.

Well, I, I didn't wanna drink it
under false pretenses.

Well, my goodness.

Maybe I don't believe
in marriage either.

Now, please, don't be angry,
Marjorie.

It's nothing personal.
It's just that..

Well, I think that marriage
is slavery for the woman

and, and prison for the man.

I think that if two people
are truly in love

they needn't be bound
by convention.

Well, my goodness. So do I.

- Marjorie, I..
- Yes, William?

What happened?

Oh, that's the new power plant.

It breaks down regularly.
Every night.

Oh, my.

How long do the lights stay off?

Sometimes for hours.

Maybe I better light a match.

Well, I, I guess
you better show me to the door.

Yes. I guess I better.

Marjorie, I'd like
to call on you again.

When?

Would, uh, tomorrow morning
be too soon?

Oh, no.

I, I guess you better light
another match.

Marjorie, I think
you're the most beautiful

and the most feminine girl
I've ever met.

Oh, thank you, William.
Thank you very much.

Well, goodnight.

Goodnight.

I, I guess you better light
another match.

I-I don't have any more.

We don't really have
any buttermilk either.

Doesn't he ever go home? = shh.

Alice, can't you get her
in here to finish her lunch?

Oh, let her be, George.

Ha, I never thought
I'd see the day.

She's sitting cow-eyed
in the swing

and he's playing records
for her.

I'll have to ask that young man
his intentions.

Oh, George.

Oh, I'll do it very discreetly

but it has to be done.

Marjorie's young
and very inexperienced.

All she knows about men
is their batting averages.

In case you're interested,
this one's battin' a thousand.

Let's play the other side,
huh, William?

Alright, Marjorie.

- "Cuddle up a little closer?”
- Yeah, I like that.

J cuddle up a little closer j

j lovey mine j

j cuddle up
and be my little clinging vine j

j clinging vine j

j like to feel your cheek
so rosy j

j rosy j

j like to.. J -

it's Wesley.

The lattice at the front
of the porch is loose

and he crawls under
and comes out all bugs.

J lovey mine j

j cuddle up a little closer j

j cuddle up a little closer j

j lovey mine j j love.. J.J

Wesley, you come out of there
right now!

I said come out of there!

What are you trying to do?
Choke a person to death?

I may have to sit here
for the next half hour

just trying to catch my breath.

Here, Wesley.

'Maybe this will make you
breathe a little easier.'

gee, thanks.

I feel fine now.

J cuddle up a little closer j

j lovey mine j

j cuddle up and be my little j

j clinging vine j

j like to feel your cheek
so rosy j

j like to make you comfy cozy j

j 'cause I love
from head to toesie j

j lovey mine j

j cuddle up a little closer j

j lovey mine j

j cuddle up and be my little j

j clinging vine... jj

I'm not
interrupting anything, am I?

Oh, why, father, I thought
you'd gone back to town.

No, I thought I'd like to have
a little talk with William

before he leaves for college
and his studies of, uh, law?

No, sir, not law.

Oh, then it must be medicine.

Well, a doctor these days
can support

a wife and a family very nicely.

Father.

- I major in english literature.
- Oh, I see.

Well, we can find something else
for you.

What do you think of banking?

Well, frankly, sir,
I feel that every bank

in the country
should be blown up.

Tea?
Would anyone care for some tea?

- Iced tea, father?
- What did you say, young man?

Well, I didn't mean it
literally, sir.

It's just that every
thinking person knows that banks

are completely unproductive
and-and unnecessary.

Why, they're parasites
on society.

I'd like some tea.
Wouldn't you, William?

Unnecessary and unproductive?

- And I can prove it.
- Oh, you can?

- Yes, sir, I can.
- Lemon or cream?

Do you have some money?

Yes.

Fine. A $5 bill.

This is the commodity
in which the banks deal.

Money, the root of all evil.

Now suppose
it were all destroyed.

Has anything really been lost?

Is there any less clothing,
less food

less love in the world now?

Young man...

William,
father is vice president

of the first national bank.

Huh?

Holy cow. Did I do this?

- Marjorie, get in the house.
- Father, it's nothing serious.

It's just something
they teach William at college.

Well, until they teach him
how to support a wife

I suggest you find yourself
another young man.

J tell me j

j why nights are lonesome j

j tell me j

j why days are blue j

j tell me why all the sunshine j

j comes just that one time [j

j when I'm with you j

j why do I hate j

j to go dear j

j to say goodbye? J

j now somehow j

j it's always so dear j

j and if you know dear j

j please tell me why? J

jmmmm mmm mmmmmmm j

j mmm la-da da-de j

j now somehow j

j it's always so dear j

j and if you know dear j

j please tell me j

j why? Jj

Seems to me a person
wouldn't sing so loud in the morning

when they know another person's
got a sick headache.

Seems to me a person always gets
a sick headache on school days.

Well, you wouldn't care
if I went to the hospital

and had to be operated on,
I suppose.

How many times
do I have to call you?

Miss Marjorie,
your breakfast is ready.

Alright, Stella. I just want
to finish this letter.

Finish it later. We're not
serving a la carte, you know.

Alright.

You too. You're gonna
be late for school.

You eat every bit
of that cereal.

You're a growing boy
and you need it.

I hate it.

Stella, dust off the piano.

Hubert wakely
is coming to call again.

Men have been buzzing
around here like flies

ever since you gave up baseball.

This place is beginning
to look like the ymca

on a rainy afternoon.

Your father seems to think
very highly of Mr. wakely.

Why wouldn't he?
Hubert is steady, reliable

has a fine job teaching music

and he's just as stuffy
as father.

- Marjie.
- Well, he is.

- 'Hey, Wesley!"
- I gotta go.

You haven't finished
your breakfast.

You wouldn't want me to be late
for school, would you?

Excuse me.

I wonder what you get
for manslaughter in this state.

Hi, Jim.

- You got your letter?
- What letter's that?

You know what
old miss Stevens said.

"A model letter to a friend

on a subject
of general interest."

Oh, no.

Well, she'll only keep you
in after school

two or three hours, I guess.

Oh, no, she won't.
I just remembered.

I got a letter all written out.

'Wait for me, Jim!
I'll be right out.'

Excuse me.

Stella!

Now, children, it is time
for english composition.

I know how hard
you all must have worked

on your letters for this morning

so I have a little surprise
for you.

I'm going to let you read
some of them aloud

before you hand them in.

Now, won't that be nice?

Cora claypool,
you may read yours.

Yes, ma'am.

"Dear cousin Sadie'

"I thought
I would write you today

"on some subject
of general interest

"and so I thought
I would tell you

"about the subject
of our courthouse.

“It is a very fine building'

"situated
in the center of the city'

"and a visit to the building
after school'

“well repays for the visit.'

"upon entrance,
we find upon our left'

"the office of the county clerk'

"and upon our right,
a humber of windows'

"affording a view
of the street.'

"and so we proceed
finding on both sides'

"much of general interest.'

"the building was begun
in 1886 ad'

"and it was through in 1887 ad.'

"it is four stories high
and made of stone'

"pressed brick, wood and tiles'

“with a tower or cupola'

"127 feet 7 inches
from the ground.'

"among subjects of general
interest told by the janitor'

"we learned that
this architect of the building'

'was a man named flanner
and the foundation..."

Wesley winfield,
you may read your letter.

- Ma'am?
- You may read your letter.

Yessum.

- 'Have you prepared one?'
- Yessum.

But, uh,
you're going to find out

that you forgot to bring it,
aren't you?

No, ma'am, I got it.

Well, we'll listen to what
you found time to prepare

for once.

"Dear friend,
you call me beautiful

"but I'm really not beautiful

"and at times,
I doubt if I'm even pretty.

"Though my hair may be beautiful
and even if it's true

that my eyes are like
the blue stars in heaven...”

Go on.

- Oh, no.
- '"Proceed.'

“"a-a treemor thrills my being

"when I recall your last words
to me

that last, that last..”

Go on.

"That, that last evening
in the moonlight

when you, you.."

Wesley, you will go on.

And you will stop
that stammering.

"You-you kissed my shoulder

"and, and said that
you would like to love me

forever and ever and..."

'Wesley.'

"and-and-and that
if you believed in marriage

"you would want me to.

Yours respectfully,
Wesley winfield.”

- May I leave the room?
- Bring me that letter.

You will sit there
until no more treemors

thrill your being.

J then like my dreams
they fade and die j

j fortune's always hiding j

j I've looked everywhere j

j I'm forever blowing bubbles [

j pretty bubbles in the air jj

oh, that was wonderful, Hubert.

Just wonderful.

You must come again soon.

Oh, I'm in no hurry, Princess.

As Shakespeare once said

"ah, if music be the food
of love, play on."

- Did Shakespeare say that?
- Yes, Princess.

I have an idea.
Let's sing something together.

Oh, I-l would like to
very much, Hubert

but, um, I-l have an appointment
a-at the dentist.

J love ya love ya honey j

j ooh if you only knew j

j when I'm with you honey [j

j all my days are sunny j

j love to kiss ya honey j

j ooh if you only knew j

j oh my daddy sang
this songtoma j

j way back way back when [

j and I knew the moment
I met you j

j I'd sing that song again j

j love ya love ya honey j

j ooh if you only knew j

j ooh if you only knew
pum pum jj

hey, Wesley!

How's your beautiful hair?

Wesley.

You stay out of the living room.

Your sister
is entertaining a caller.

Is he telling her
her eyes are like

the blue stars in heaven?

Now where did you pick that up?

I've been around.

Well, just the same, you stay
out of that living room.

I'll get even on that Marjorie.

Why don't you get even
on her then?

Alright, I will get even on her.

Miss winfield, would you care
for another apple?

Mmm, no, thanks.
Hubert, really, I'm...

Uh, miss winfield,
when I look into your eyes

I recall those immortal words
of Tennyson...

"Anybody seen Max?'

- who?
- Max, my dog.

You seen him around here
anywhere?

We haven't seen him.

That's funny.

Well, I guess there's no use
looking for him.

He isn't anywheres around.

Guess I'll sit down.

'Kind of tired of standing up,
anyway.'

Wesley, I-I just remembered.

I was looking out of the window
a minute ago

and I saw a dog run across
the street and turn the corner.

- Little or big?
- Well, Max is a little dog.

Of course, if it was a little
dog, it must have been Max.

I-it was little.
It was a little bit of a dog.

No, it couldn't have been Max.

Max is, he's kind of
a middle-sized dog.

- By George!
- Do you have to go, Hubert?

No, no, it isn't that,
but by the way

it seems a pity
to be missing the fine weather.

'I wonder if I could persuade
you to take a little walk.'

no, Hubert, really, I...

One can talk better

out in the open,
don't you think?

Alright. I have to get my hat.

I'll get mine too.

- Ready, Hubert?
- Yes, but better hurry.

I think
we've given him the slip.

What kept you?

Oh, no.

My, it's a brisk day, isn't it?

Oh, it's lovely.

I believe
this is our first walk together.

Oh, is it?

- Do you like walking fast?
- Oh, yes.

You set the pace.
I think I can keep up with you.

Say, what's the rush?

We going to a fire or somethin'?

Your dog is going home.

Don't you think
you should look after him?

Why worry about him?
He's smarter than we are.

Miss winfield, keep your head up
and breathe through your nose.

Oh, is that how it's done?

Hubert, I really enjoyed
that little walk.

Didn't you?

Won't you come in?

Oh, no.

I think I'd better go h-home.

Home? What's the matter?

You tired or something?

Come on. Let's go around
the block again, huh?

Would you like to, Hubert?

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.

Middle-sized.

You're an angel.

'One, two, three.
Waltz, two, three.'

one, two, three.
Waltz, two, three.

Dip, two, three.
Dip, two, three.

One, two, glide.
One, two, glide.

'One, two, three.
Waltz, two, three.'

'one, two, three. One, two..'

My dear Mr. winfield

young gentlemen in society
do not scratch their backs

when they are dancing
with a young lady.

Nobody else is itching.
I do not itch.

'I cannot continue with
the dance if you must itch.'

in heaven's name,
why must you always itch?

Piano, please.

Now, everybody,
take a deep breath.

Inhale.

One, two, three.
One, two, three.

One, two, three.
One, two, three.

One, two, three.

Class dismissed.

- Come on, Marjorie.
- Wesley, you hurry on home now.

Why? Aren't you comin'?

Wesley, I have to stay here

and talk to professor barson
about something.

Again? = shh.

Now you go on.
I'l be home later.

Professor, I'm all ready now.

Marjie, you must love that boy
very much

to come here every Friday
for a month

to dance with an old man.

Am I doing any better?

Oh, much better.

- Well, what's left for today?
- The Turkey trot.

Mmm, the Turkey trot.

Such a dance I don't blame you
for wanting to learn in secret.

Better I teach you
a beautiful schottische

or viennese waltz, hmm?

But, professor,
nobody waltzes anymore.

And if I'm asking a young man
to come all the way from college

to take me to the charity ball,
oh, I wanna be sure

that I can dance
whatever the orchestra plays.

Such dances they play now.

The grizzly bear. The bunny hug.

The kangaroo dip.

Am I a dance teacher
or an animal trainer?

Oh, alright.

Adolf, you should excuse
the expression.

The Turkey trot.

You start with your right foot.

Jmmmm mmm mmmmmmm j

jmmmm mmmmmmm jd

yay, Marjorie!

One, two, three, glide.
One, two, three, glide.

Old marjie can't find
no dancing partner.

Come on, hit her.

Yay, Marjorie!

'One, two, three, glide.
One, two, three, glide.'

oh.

My leg. Oh, my leg.

But, Marjorie, you haven't
given me one sensible reason.

Quiet, fellas. Long distance.

But why don't you want me
to come?

You're not going
with anybody else, are you?

Oh, no, William.

I-it's just that I don't feel
like dancing with anyone

while all of Europe
is in flames.

'What's Europe
got to do with us?'

'anyway, it's a charity ball.'

it's for war relief, so
you don't have to feel guilty.

I'll be there Christmas Eve.

Gosh, Marjorie,
after all the trouble I went to

to square things
with your father.

But I-l just don't think
it's right, William

with-with poor little Belgium
and all, and..

So you might as well stay
where you are because..

Because I'm not gonna dance
with anybody.

Goodbye.

- Give me your arm.
- Will you, please, hold still?

Now where's his head?

- Give me your arm...
- You're not trying, Wesley...

I am!

Here? Oh.

Now tie it up
nice and tight, marjie.

- Just wait one second.
- It's gonna be long enough.

Hey, you're chokin' me.

I will in a minute
if you don't hold still.

Now turn around for mother.

Ouch! What are you trying to do?
Stab a person to death?

Just stand still, Wesley.

Well, hurry up.
I wanna go to the picture show.

You wait
until we get this fitted

and then you can take it off
and go to your picture show.

What kind of thing
you got on me?

Exactly what all the other
children in Hubert wakely's

group of little Christmas
carolers will be wearing.

Well, let old wakely
stand out in the snow

and sing Christmas Carols,
not me.

- Here's Mr. Wesley's wings.
- Oh, they're fine, Stella.

Yeah. Careful,
the gluing's still wet.

Uh-huh. Look, they just fit.

There.

Now hold real still.

Oh, I don't know.

Seems almost a sacrilege

dressing Wesley as an angel.

Somehow, I think
he'd look more natural

with horns and a tail.

Stella!
He looks wonderful in this.

There's something
almost spiritual about him.

Oh, it is.
It's a beautiful costume.

Look, mother.

You'd never know
it was our Wesley.

Darling, you're the picture
of angelic beauty.

Come on,
take a look at yourself.

Marjorie's old petticoat!

You've got me
in Marjorie's old petticoat!

Shh. No one will recognize...

Well, everybody in town
will know

it's Marjorie's old petticoat.

- You can't make me wear it!
- Oh, Wesley.

Stop yelling
Marjorie's old petticoat.

Do you want all the neighbors
to hear it?

Marjorie's old petticoat!
I won't wear it!

- Wait, your wings!
- Stella, grab him.

Throw some water on him!
Get him!

I'll get him. I'll get him.

I'll get him! I'll get him!
I got him!

No!

I wouldn't be an angel
if you kill me.

Wesley,
you've broken your wings.

Stella,
see if you can find his halo.

Halo?
How about a straightjacket?

Now do you know the difference

between a proper
and an improper fraction?

Mm, sometimes.

Wesley,
if you don't pay attention

you'll never learn.

Wesley winfield,
you come down here this instant.

You hear me?

Come down here.
Come down here right..

Well, if you don't come down,
I'll get you down.

Wesley! Wesley.

Wesley winfield.

Wesley. Wesley winfield.

Wesley winfield!

Oh, my goodness.
Can't you keep still

for a minute, you old crow?

What did you say?

What did you say?

Wh-what did I say?

You know very well
what you said.

Now stand up.

March.

Wesley, what excuse
do you have to offer

before I report your case
to the principal?

Well, I-l was just thinkin'.

That won't do, Wesley winfield.

If that is your only excuse

I shall report your case
this instant.

- Now come with me.
- Well, I have got an excuse.

Well, what is it?

Well, it's 'cause I didn't
get any sleep last night.

Were you ill?

No, ma'am. It wasn't illness.

It was lots worse
than bein' sick.

It was, it was just awful.

What was?

It's about father.
= your father?

And mother. But the trouble
was mainly father.

Now, Wesley, I've never heard

any such rumors
about your family.

I've heard them
about plenty of others, but..

Well, your father
has always struck me

as a, a quiet and charming man.

Well, he was until last year

when he took to runnin'
with them travelin' men.

What?

I don't want to hear
another word of this.

Continue.

Yessum.
That was what started it.

At first,
he was a good, kind husband

but those travelin" men
had coaxed him into a saloon

on his way home from work

and they started him
drinking beer

and then ales, and wines

and liquors, and cigars.

Wesley. = ma'am?

I don't want to hear any further

about your family's
private affairs.

Now I'm asking you
if you have anything to say

that could possibly excuse...

That's just what I'm trying
to tell you, miss Stevens

if you'd just only let me.

You see,
after we bandaged Marjorie...

- Bandaged Marjorie?
- 'Yessum.'

you see, her leg
was all bruised up and mauled

where he'd been hitting her
with his cane.

I knew
Marjorie had hurt her ankle

but I didn't know
your father had...

Yessum.
So I had to sit up with her.

And mother. She had
some pretty big bruises too.

But, well, why didn't you
send for the doctor?

Oh, they didn't want any doctor.

We don't want anybody
to hear about it.

You see, father might reform,
and then where would he be

if everybody knew
he'd been a drunkard

and whipped his wife
and daughter?

Oh!

'You see, he used to be
as upright as anyone.'

- it all begun...
- It began, Wesley.

Yessum. It all commenced
from the first day

he let them travelin' men
coax him into that saloon.

'And I said, "why,
mother, what's the use'

'in taking on so about it?™

'and I said,
"all the crying in the world'

'won't help matters any.” and..'

she'd catch hold of me
and kind of sob and holler and..

I'd say to
her, "mother, don't cry.

Please don't cry.”

Wesley, now I understand.

And you were thinking of all
those dreadful things so hard

that you forgot where you were.

I was thinking
how to save father.

Oh!

You brave little boy.

Oh, I know how upset you are.

Why don't you take
the afternoon off

and forget
about the whole thing?

Thank you, ma'am.

Alright, Hubert,
I'll tell him. Bye.

That was Hubert wakely
on the phone.

The carolers
are waiting for Wesley.

Let them wait.

I wouldn't put on
that old petticoat

if you paid me.

Well, since it's most unlikely

you'd be paid
for such a performance

you'll go to bed
right after dinner.

Aw!

Eat your soup. It's good.

Marjorie, have you talked
to Mary Stevens lately?

- You mean Wesley's teacher?
- Yes.

'Do you think she's, um'

'a little queer these days?'

'no. What makes you say that?'

'well, she's
acquired a very odd manner.'

at least she seemed odd to me.

I met her in the store
this afternoon

and after we'd said
how do you do to each other

she kept hold of my hand

and looked as though
she were going to cry.

Are you alright? = fine.

I don't think it's so odd,
mother.

I think
she's just very emotional.

You know, she has relations
living in england.

And what with the war and...
= wait.

She stood there
squeezing my hand

and struggling to get her voice.

Really, I was embarrassed.

And then finally she said

in a kind of a tearful whisper

"be of good cheer.
This trial will pass.”

- How queer.
- Maybe she'd been drinking.

Wait. After that,
she said something even queerer

'and put her handkerchief
to her eyes and hurried away.'

well? What was the other thing
she said?

She said, "I know that Wesley

is a great, great comfort
to you."

- 'I'm afraid she's a goner.'
- 'Crazy as a bedbug.'

- 'did she say anything else?'
- 'No, that's all she said.'

'every word.'

Stella, more soup.

- William sherman.
- How do you do, miss Stevens?

Well, what are you doing
in town?

Jim said you were staying at
the university this Christmas.

Well, I came down to take
Marjorie to the charity ball.

It's a surprise.

- Marjorie winfield?
- Yes.

Oh, you poor, poor boy.

What's the matter, miss Stevens?

You mean she didn't write you
about... her father?

No. What about her father?

You come with me.
Come on. Come on.

Oh, Stella, that's cold.

Nothing like an alcohol rub.

Keeps the circulation going.

George.

He's sleeping like a baby.

He's been working
too hard lately.

Is the light
shining in his eyes, mother?

Oh? Oh, I'll fix that.

Oh, isn't this cozy?

A perfect Christmas Eve.

Somebody wants in.

Merry Christmas, Christmas.

Marjorie! = bill!

Oh!

Oh, bill,
I'm so glad to see you.

- It's true.
- What?

Look what he's done to you.
That monster.

'Marjorie, I'll take you away
from all this.'

William,
will you, please, be quiet?

Don't you worry, Mrs. winfield.

I'm not afraid of him.
= William!

So this is what the institution
of marriage has done.

Forced you to live
with that drunken beast.

What?

Why, this place
reeks with alcohol.

Oh, that's rubbing alcohol.

Oh, no.

How low can a man sink?

What's the matter with you?

Look at him.
Lying there in a drunken stupor.

I'll sober him up.
= oh, William!

Ah! = no!

And if you ever lay

a little finger
on either of them again, I'll...

What finger?
Take your hands off of me!

- Have you gone crazy?
- You don't deserve a family...

- How did he get in here?
- Coming in here.

- Get him out of here!
- Are you out of your mind?

- 'Stella? Stella?'
- 'Coming.'

'get this madman
out of this house.'

William sherman,
I never wanna see you again

as long as I live.

I'm sorry, marjie, but they said

he'd taken to drink
and was beating you.

Who's they?

Miss Stevens, Wesley's teacher.

'I met her at the station."

How could you believe
for one minute that my...

Young man, never step foot
inside this door again.

But, sir, she said that
Wesley said that, that..

I knew it was a mistake
moving into this neighborhood.

Papa, I've never seen him
like this before.

Maybe he's been studying
too hard.

'His mind must have snapped.'

what was that he was sayin'
about Mr. Wesley?

Wesley!

Oh, my goodness.

Oh.

William! William!

- "William!
- Wesley?

Wesley.

Oh.

Oh, William, I'm awfully sorry.

If only I had told you
how I sprained my ankle.

- I'm not interested.
- William, please listen to me.

I was throwing snowballs
and I fell

and, and I didn't want
to tell you because..

Cause you think I'm so feminine.

There's nothing I wanted more

than to go to the dance
with you.

I even practiced
the grizzly bear

and the crab step
and all those dances.

Won't you, please, come back?

I only make a fool of myself
once a night.

Why, you pompous old..

Well, your little son
is not in his room

or any place else in the house.

Oh, I hope he's alright.

So do I, because I want him

to be in good condition
when I catch up with him.

Wesley.

Wesley!

you know,
it just occurred to me that

after today,
I won't belong here anymore.

Why, William sherman

I didn't know that
college meant so much to you.

You used to laugh at it,
you know.

I was just
going through a phase.

Were you going through one
about me too?

No, that wasn't a phase.

Oh, bill, we're gonna have
a wonderful time this summer.

What's wrong?

Marjie, there's something
very important

I've got to tell you.

What's wrong?

Come on, bill.
You want to graduate, don't you?

Or do you wanna wait
till next year?

Holy smokes, I've gotta
make a speech. Come on.

But what were you gonna tell me?

You'll know soon enough.

During our four years at college

many of us
have changed our ideas

as often as our wardrobe

and I think it's a wise thing.

A good student should have

an open and inquiring mind.

As freshmen, we were radicals.

As sophomores,
we were freethinkers.

As juniors,
we were intellectuals.

In those years past

it had become fashionable for us

to sneer
at established institutions.

But now we must outgrow
our callow philosophies

'and face the realities of
a troubled and changing world.'

doesn't William
look distinguished

in his cap and gown?

Someday Wesley will look
just as distinguished.

Yeah, but it will take more
than a cap and gown.

I say to you that we must awaken
to our responsibilities..

As students and citizens

'and remember
that we are men and women"

not dreamers in an ivory tower.

"These are the times
that try men's soul.”

"The summer soldier
and the sunshine patriot'

'must do everything
in their power.'

'well, we are not
summer soldiers'

'or sunshine patriots.'

many of you have come
to think of college students

as frivolous young men
and women.

A fine boy.

A little erratic,
but he's straightening out.

Uh, now that he's graduating

I suppose
you've made your plans.

Plans for what, father?

Well, marriage.
What else is there?

Bill doesn't believe
in marriage.

Oh, something else
they've taught him at college.

But you'll bring him around.

Oh, he's convinced me
that he's right.

What? = shh.

Bill says that
marriage is a remnant

of a decadent civilization.

Well, this decadent family has..

Has believed in
it for a good many years

and I've never seen any cause
to regret it until today.

I am taking you away from him
before it's too late.

Recognize our responsibility

'to our generation.'

'it may come as a surprise
to many and a shock to some

'but we realized
individually and collectively'

that we had no other course
but to face reality

and our duty to our country.

I am very proud to be a member
of this graduating class.

Bill.

I told you
it was too hot for soup.

Why, at least you'd think

it would cool off
in the evening.

George, why don't you take off
your jacket?

I think I will.

It seems to be getting warmer
every year.

It's 7:30.

She's probably mooning around
somewhere.

She has been
since you-know-what.

Someday, Marjorie's going
to thank me for what I've done.

I was talking to Hubert wakely.

She doesn't like him, George.

And why not? I'd like to know.

He's reliable, settled,
makes a good living

and he won't have to go
into the army.

This morning he told me
he had a punctured eardrum.

I punctured it last night.

Stella.

Hey, Wesley!

"Wesley!"

- You comin'?
- Be right there.

Mom, I'm not hungry.

- Can I go with Jim?
- Where you going, dear?

Well, there's a troop train
comin' in and we thought

we'd go down to the station
'cause bill's gonna be on it.

Sit down and eat your dinner,
young man.

You're not going anywhere.

Seems to me if marjie can go,
I ought to be able to.

Marjie knows better
than to do anything like that.

Well, she was packin' her bag.

When I asked her
where she was going...

Packing her bag?

George!

Well, I'll take care of this.

Well, it's a little too hot
for dessert, wasn't it?

Psst.

Psst.

Hey, what are they handing out
on this side of the train?

You gotta help me get on.

Wouldn't it be simpler
if I got off?

Please.
I'm looking for a soldier.

You came to the right store.
= thanks.

Hey, uh, how do I know
you're not a German spy?

Oh, I'm not.

Well, maybe I'd better
search you

for secret papers.

Hey, Joe, wait till I tell you
about the dream I just had.

J pack up your troubles
in your old kitbag j

j and smile smile smile j

j while you've a Lucifer
to light your fag

j smile boys that's the style j

j what's the use of worrying? J

j it never was worthwhile j

bill!

J pack up your troubles
in your old kitbag j

j and smile smile smile j'j

Marjorie!
What are you doing here?

- I'm going with you.
- But this is a troop train.

I don't care what it is
or where it's going

just so we can be together.

Oh, it's gonna be mighty crowded

in that pup tent.

We're pulling out any minute.

You've got to get off.

I'm not leaving you.

Until you ship out,
I'm never going to be

any farther away from you
than this.

Hey, maybe this is that bonus

that congress has been
promising us.

You've got to get out of here.

Say, bill,
uh, see if she's got a friend.

Will you, kid?
= I wouldn't mind too.

All figured out. You get off...

But I may never see you again.
And if there's any way that I...

Young lady,
will you listen to me?

Please, William,
I know what I'm doing.

I've thought about this
for a long...

Will you marry me?

I can get a place to stay
near the camp and...

I'm asking you to be my wife.

Your married wife?

Oh, bill.

Bill.

But you don't believe
in marriage.

Right this minute,
I don't know anything

I believe in more.

Now, look, marjie.

You get the next train.
I'll meet you in Chicago.

We'll be married
as soon as you get there.

Marjorie winfield,
you get off of this train.

Father.

And, as for you, young man

I ought to have you
thrown in prison.

- Oh, father.
- But, Mr. winfield..

But, Mr. winfield,
I just asked marjie to marry me.

Yes, I expected you to say that.

Now, you're coming home
to grow up.

But, father.

Running away with a soldier.

How you could let him influence
you into doing such a thing.

But it was all my idea.

Oh, why didn't you stick
to baseball?

Marjie?

Marjie?

Yes, Wesley?

I'm sorry.

It was a secret
about you going to the train

and I told.

It's alright.

Well, no, it isn't.

Hey, I'm gonna be
12 years old tomorrow

and I'm acting like
I was a child.

We all act like we're children
sometimes, Wesley.

Gee, it must be tough
being a girl.

- Hello, miss robertson.
- Hello, Stella.

Well, it's good to see you.
Here, let me help you.

If I needed any help,
I wouldn't have come.

Aunt Martha.

Wesley, aunt Martha's here!

Oh, it's good to see you.

You're looking younger
every day.

Well, I feel younger every day.

- Hello, aunt Martha.
- Wesley!

My, how you've grown.

Why, I hardly know you
with your face all washed

and your hair combed.

Yessum.

Well, can't we all go inside?

No, I'll only stay
a few minutes.

I just came to bring Wesley
some cookies

and give him
his birthday present.

I guess that's all
you're interested in.

- Isn't it, Wesley?
- Yessum.

'Well, I hear that George
really made a spectacle of himself'

'last night
at the railway station.'

- 'shh.'
- 'Oh, shush yourself, Alice.'

one prude in the family
is enough.

Marjorie wants to get married.
Why doesn't he let her?

Well, George feels
the boy isn't Sincere.

You see, William doesn't believe
in the institution of marriage.

Fiddlesticks.

No man believes in marriage

until a woman traps him into it.

Remember how you got George?
= oh.

Well, Wesley,
how you making out?

- Just fine.
- Happy birthday.

Gee, thanks, aunt Martha.

Oh, no, aunt Martha, not that.

Oh, let him keep it.

I suppose he will do
something horrible with it.

I'd be disappointed
if he didn't.

Wesley, be careful.
You'll cut yourself.

And here's something else.

Gee, thanks again.

That isn't for you,
but go ahead and open it.

I want you to give it back
to your father.

I think it's time.

"You tell him I sent it to him"

'because I believe
I can trust him with it now.'

I took that contraption away
from your father 35 years ago

one day after he'd killed
my best hen with it.

- Accidentally.
- Father?

'I think if
you give him that from me'

he'll remember.

You look like your father,
Wesley.

He was anything
but a handsome boy.

He'll grow out of it,
aunt Martha.

There's one more cookie left.

Aren't you going to eat it?

Well, I guess I'd better.

Go ahead and stuff yourself.

You're 12 years old today

and you ought to be happy
if you're nothing else.

It's taken over 1900 years
of christianity

and some hundreds
of thousands of years

of other things to produce you

and there you sit.

M ' am?

'It'll be your turn to struggle'

and muss things up
for the betterment

- Behind you.

Oh, we're not ready
for the cake yet.

Mr. wakely's still singing.

Thought if I took it in,
he'd stop.

thank you. Thank you.

I know you would like me
to go on and on

but I really must stop.

'And now, if the little
gentlemen will take'

'the little ladies by the hand'

"we shall put a record
on the phonograph'

and you may all trip
the light fantastic.

Wesley,
why are you sitting here?

Why aren't you dancing?
=I don't wanna dance.

It's my birthday,
so I don't have to.

- Wesley.
- Well, whose party is this?

- Hubert wakely's or mine?
- "Why, it's yours, dear.'

well, then why doesn't he
stop singing and go home?

May I have this dance?

- No, thank you, Hubert...
- Oh, come, come now.

This is no time to be coy.

Look, he's trying to make
marjie dance with him.

Why doesn't he leave her alone?

Shh. Don't worry about it.

Your father and I
had a long talk last night

and with your approval,
it's full steam ahead.

Excuse me, but Marjorie promised
this dance to me.

1 did? = sure.

Guess I can dance
with my own sister

at my own birthday party,
can't I?

Oh, but, Princess..

Well, I guess I can dance
with my own brother.

Would you excuse us, Hubert?

Stella,
you should be more careful.

Careful.

Well, it looks like I'm not
such a bad father after all.

Wesley's behaving
like a perfect little gentleman.

Even Marjorie seems to be
enjoying herself.

Everything is calm once more.

Cyclone weather.

Stella, answer that.

I hope it's the ice cream.

Pretty.

It ain't the ice cream.

Come right in.

Mr. winfield,
I've got to talk to you.

I thought
we were well rid of you.

I have a 24-hour pass

and the only train back
leaves in a half an hour.

Sir, I'm in love
with your daughter

and I wanna marry her.

And how long would that last?

Until you get
some other crackpot ideas?

- Bill.
- Marjorie.

Oh, hold me tight.

Don't let me go this time.

I don't want to..

But it's up to your father.

You're making it very difficult
for me, young man

but I am sure in the long run
you'll realize I'm right.

Now I'll thank you
to leave my house.

George.

Father, bill and I are going

to be married right now

and you couldn't stop us

with an act of congress.

- I'll get my things.
- Wait a minute, Marjorie.

Let's be sensible about this.

I couldn't ask you
to give up your family

for, for one week with a soldier
who's shipping out.

It wouldn't be fair to you.

But how can you be sensible
at a time like this?

One of us has to be.

It may be a long time
before I get back.

You're gonna have to live
with them, not with me.

So I guess we'd better wait.

Is it alright
if I walk him to the gate?

Certainly you can, darling.

You go right ahead.

Sometimes
I don't understand you.

Well, what did you
want me to do?

Let my daughter
become a camp follower?

George Wadsworth winfield,
you listen to me.

And I'll write you every day
I'm gone.

And I'll knit you some socks.

I can't knit,
but I'll knit you some socks.

Well, if I can get my shoes on
over them, I'll wear them.

Oh, I know I'm supposed
to be brave, William

but you're gonna be so far away.

Oh, come on,
it's not as bad as all that.

"Smile the while
I kiss you fond adieu."

"Sad adieu.”

- "When the clouds roll by.."
- "I'll come to you."

J then the skies will seem j

j more blue j

j down in lovers' Lane j

j my dearie j

j wedding bells will ring j

j so merrily j

j every tear will be j

j a memory j

j so wait and pray j

j each night for me [j

j till we meet j

j again j

j wedding bells will ring j

j so merrily j

j every tear will be j

j a memory j

j so wait and pray j

j each night for me [j

j till we meet j

j again jj

Marjie?

Don't take it so seriously.

She'll get over it.

George,
were you ever a young man?

I can't even remember. = Alice.

After all, no man
really wants to get married.

William is just more honest
than most.

Now I suppose I didn't want
to get married to you.

Of course, you didn't.
If you had any idea

of the lengths I had to go
to force you to propose..

Wh-what do you mean?

You know, it's hard to realize

you once were exactly
like William sherman.

I was not.

Oh, George.

You remember the day
we got engaged?

You took me for a walk
in the woods

near aunt Martha's farm.

We got lost.

Oh, it was hours
before we got back.

You knew the way home
all the time.

How can you say such a thing?

Because I knew it too.

I don't recall
the incident at all.

Of course, you don't.

Because you refuse
to remember anything

that indicates
you might have human failings.

But they're the reasons
I married you.

Wesley!

See what you did to that window?

You incorrigible brat.

I don't know
what we're going to do with you.

What do you mean?
Just ten minutes ago

I was telling your mother
how proud I was of you

and you had to go throw a rock
at me through the window.

I didn't.
I was shooting at a bird and..

Well, the sun got in my eyes
and the sling broke.

What sling?

This one.

Where did you get
this devilish thing?

'Haven't I told you
a thousand times... '

it isn't mine, it's yours.

- What?
- Yes, sir.

Aunt Martha gave it to me.

She told me
to give it back to you.

She said she took it away
from you 35 years ago.

You killed her best hen
with it, she said.

She told me some more
to tell you, but I forgot.

Sorry, pop.

It's alright, son.

Forget all about it.

A broken window
isn't too important, anyway.

Tell him it's the neighbor

who just remembered
he was young once too.

Here's your hat.

Keep your head up
