The parade Of extreme models rep
resents several types OF social life.
Girls from good homes, girls from no
homes at all, and young women who
probably preside over their W homes
they all look a great deal alike. The
only difference perhaps will be in the
amour Of makeup on their faces. "
The welfare worker claims that the
young impressionah'e si~l. whatever
her standing. will copy the N
whom she considers successful social
ly. Some Of her ideas she gets from
the movies, probably. In her lack Of
judgment and understanding she
meets difficulties and temptations,
through her mode OF dressing, and
her actions, that older and better es-
tab!ished women are equipped to cop,

craving for excitement unquestionably
do leave their effects upon a good

late and never Trip himself up.
He had attended couple of Con-
certs and at one time boarded with
a Lady who played the Autoharp.
One Evening when he was out
with a few People who were such
Thorough Musicians that they
seemed Sour about something all
the time, Tall Man with Low
Collar asked him if he had heard
that latest Thing by Tschaikow-
sky.
If he had made it Irving Berlin,
1he Piker might have been with
him. But he never turned a Hair.
Impressive, isn't it," he said,
having learned how to Spar for
Wind, without leaving an Open
ayes, but it didn't get into me
the way Vogner does,' replied the
Tall Party.
This was the Cue for the Piker
to insert his Speech on Vogner.
He said he preferred Vogner any
day in the Week on account OF the
distinct Appeal to the Intellectual
Side and the Atmosphere OF Mys-
ticism, whatever that was. He
said he couldn't listen to Vogner
without going into Cold Sweat
and Chewing the Buttons of his
Gloves, particularly il the Inter-
probation was made with a Broad
and Comprehensive Virtuosity and
such Mastery of Technique as to
abolish all suggestion Of the In
termediary and bring one into d.
rect Communion with the Soul
Moods.
Then the Tall Man would know
lust as much about it az the Piker
did.
Among the Acquaintances was
a Lady named Wigley, who was
Crazy about Art. In her Parlor
she had one Of her own Works
entitled Sunset on the Little Mi
ami River" with a Frame that
cost $26.
II was Miss Wigley who read the
Paper before the Raphael Subur-
banites, setting forth that the
Highest Effects could not be OBJ
tanned by the Use Of Crayon.
She loved to hear the Piker cut
loose about the Cubists. Even
when he got In over his head, she
was right there swimming along
after him and never missing
stroke.
Mrs. wigley was struck on his
Conversation because he said so
many things that could be Thought
About later on. Nearly every one
who heard him went Home and

Once there was a man who wore
a Six Hat and had a Bean shaped
like an Egg Plant. He had not
found time to sit down and alb
sorb Culture. Sometimes he found
himself in the Front Room where
every one was expected to discuss
Literature, Art, Music and the
Difficulty of getting good Kitchen
Help.
This Man was Glug In a good
many Respects, but he was Wise
to his own Shortcomings, which
is the next thing to, being Smart
Guy. s.- E.
This Man was what our Profess
'sor OF Theology would call con-
niving Piker. A Piker is one who
gets into the Game on a 81 Bill
and Let's On to be holding back
Federal Reserve. A Piker is usu-
ally Safe when he sagatiates
among the Well-Bred because
they are too Polite to call his
Hand.
A Piker always has his entire
Stock of Goods on the Sidewalk.
When It came to Music, the
Piker did not know the difference
between a Fugue and a Cantata.
Such knowledge of Literature as
he could boast was picked up by
reading the Posters in front of
Bookstores. The average Katy
Did had about az much Art Edu-
cation as he could have Spread
had II come to a Showdown. Yet
he managed to cut Figure Fights
over the Thin Ice and he had the
name of being one'of the Brainiest
Gentlemen that ever accepted an
Invitation to the Evening session
of the Olympian Circle of Hens.
The Piker knew the Value of
the Stock Phrase. And the way
he could raise Dust and dodge
out Of a Tight Place was little
Bit of All Right.
One evening the Piker went to
call on Mrs. Hester Kazam, author
of many unpublished Poems, and
the boss Diana of the Tuft-Hunt-
ers. At the Kazam Home, which
is rugged up with Red Blankets
and Green Lamps so as to be ORR
entail, he bumped into Henrietta
Hunter Haw, who will be remem-
bered as the Young Lady who pour
ed at the Afternoon Reception to
Blasco Ibanez
Miss Haw reclined at half length
in the Turkish Corner and asked
the Pikcr what he thought Of
Sienl;iewicz. The piker knew that
no had heard that name sprung
somewhere before, but II he bad

met the Really and Truly Gazip.
The Piker unreeled little more
of the same kind. He said that
the Elaboration of Incident showed
a certain Modicum of Skill, but
there was not enough Plus Human
Sympathy in the Coloring Of the
Subtle Motives. When the Piker
got rid of this he was ALWAYS re-
lieved for it is an Awful Thing
to Memorize. and carry around with
you.
Afterward Miss Haw went out
and told her Girl Friends that the
Piker was Terrible Deep.
When they brought up Music,
