conscience can be salved a bit when
only feathers are used, but when the
whole bird is in ones hand it makes
one uncomfortable.
Those that are made only of feath-
ers possess much of the beauty OF the
old-fashioned fans. with an added
smartness of their own. They are
smaller than usual. and are not made
Of ostrich tips. but of a smoother
