to keep it there. 1t has more lions,
more MODS, more soldiers, more up-

we are concerned, however, they might
turn loose all the lions in ali the ZOOS,
including the Scandinavian, they might
hire all the extras from all the mob
kings in the world and build oil of their

not please us half az much as a simple

there is something lacking in US which
refuses to thrill at the proper moment,
the proper moment being when the
lions are turned loose in the hippo
drone filed with people, or when the
whole City of Byantiunl rises up in the
year 545 and demands the head of the
king or the throne Of the Caesars.
The love story Of Theodore and An

seemed a pity that such a fine and
shapely youth (clean limbed he would
have been in the twentieth century,
should have had such hard luck. just
as he was about to have his head cut
off by order of the King he was saved
by the Queen. Then he was attacked

finally poisoned by his own sweet
heart, Theodore. This was mistake,
of course. The draft was intended
