would enjoy it to see his son break his

"What are you talking nonsense

exclaimed.
"a scaffold is just as dangerous"
Zapp went on. Yesterday / am seeing

"You got the wrong idea, Zapp,'
Birsky said. "AIaikafer's boy would
be not a house painter but a picture
painter"
"a picture painter!" Zapp cried
"And 1 thought Max Maikafer was a
business man. Why don't he learn the
boy a trade where he could make real
big money, like buttonhOle maker OF
