eyes over her wrinkled nose, and
Master Jarr burst into a loud guffaw.

Then she darted an indignant glance
at the head of the table.
"A right kind of father wouldn't sit

how the children act, and you en-

Willie! Emma!" rasped Mr.. Jarr
for he wanted to strengthen the

In one fat, white hand rested Tyre,
in the other a stilus and tablet, ready
for dictation,
Lovely female slaves lounged around
on rugs and pillows, humming in low,
musical voices the latest song hits;
thus creating musical atmosphere
for Nero to compose his lyrics on the
Tyre.
Suddenly at the appointed hour,

single solitary rocket shot into the
air and dropped down reflections and
little sparks into the Tiger.

Then some more red and yellow
flames flared up and licked the sky.
Multitudes of people and men were

Nero laughed.
Horses and cattle stamped the
streets-pigs jumped overboard--all.
ALL these thrillers Nero lamped from

plagiarism and composed these words

tHere Nero and his inspiration got
hot, and with perspiration he had to
lay off,
