Now is the Time for All Good Men
By:Nancy Ford,Gretchen Cryer
Published on 1967 by Samuel French, Inc.
The kindly townspeople, good-hearted as the come, overlook Herbert's shotgun shenanigans and nominate him for Man of the Century in the coming Centennial Celebration. Tommy just can't see his old man as |having influenced the entire population of Bloomdale| (Of course he doesn't know him the way other people do.) So Tommy nominates Mike Butler. Herbert finds this upsetting (|I'll tan your hide, boy.) and calls Mike a pantywaist. There is to be a mock wedding at the Centennial, Sarah as mock-bride, Albert McKinney as mock-groom. But Albert comes to Sarah and proposes. He offers a real wedding, in Civil War costume, horse-drawn vehicles, a shivaree, and then a simple life thereafter. (It's just that the Centennial seemed the perfect time--and it only comes every 100 years.|) Sarah demurs. She's in love with Mike. Tommy has a real campaign going to elect Mike the Man of the Century. If Mike were elected, maybe he could even get rid of that smell from the canning factory. Tommy's father reacts by nudging Tommy toward enlistment in the Army. He wants his boy to be an athlete, a hero or, at the very least, a star on the memorial monument.
