fortunate note Of alarm. In an instant
the gray haired banker, whose dignity
gave tone TO his whole section, is walking

Some accumulated rubbish began TO
snolder, and a volume OF smoke poured
into the auditorium About half the audi
ence sitting there knew that the stage had
an enormous square opening direct upon
