sANTAL. BY Ronald Firbar& London,
"A FEW weeks back curious
~ spectacle encountered nv in
~ curing gaze as entered
Forty-seventh Street from
the west side Of Fifth Avenue. A
strangely hectic atmosphere permeatcd
that tranquil block so assiduously and
increasingly devoted to the traffic in
literary masterpieces At first /
thought perhap. the cohorts OF the
Ku- h lux klan and the American
Legion. under the leadership of Pro-
fessors Brander Matthews and John
Erskine, had descended upon the pub
fishers of american Civilization"
with intent to Kill the native contrib
utors and deport the aliens whose
musings make up that affecting tome
But as looked more closely at the
surging crowd l noticed that it was
largely feminine, and I realized nv
error. for it is inconceivable that any
body OF American women could be Sc
riousy troubled about American civil
izatlon. Moreover, the average age of
this crowd was between eighteen and
twenty-five, and its objective was the
Holiday Book Shop. Evidently some
nobler enterprise was afoot.
1t was impossible to reach the steps
Of the Book Shop, for up and down
there swarmed an excited queue of
young women. those in the outgoing
stream bearing q parcel away with
smiles Of triumph and anticipation, The
others still struggling toward their
mecca had that expression of strain,
Of ruthless determination, which is
seen on the countenances of older
women as they storm the bargain
counters of the department stores.
A moment later the mystery was ex-
planned. The Holiday Book Shop had
just received its weekly supply of Ron
aid Firbank. The cuties | had seen
descending the steps had secured their
rations; the struggling crowd had
come together from the three corner.
of Manhattan, their famished instincts
aroused by the glad tidings: Firbank
is here
My eyes fingered over this inspiring
sight, and I retired across the street
to loiter among a medley Of decadent
stone lions, fin de steele stone orna-
ments and bizarre shapes apparently
intended to grace the dwellings of
more ingenious art lovers than those
in search of Firbankery. Suddenly
Mephistophelian laugh sounded in my
ear, sinister, mirthless chuckle. 1t
was Carl Van Vechten come to feast
his feline imagination upon the
shame Of these Marguerites in three
piece fapper suits, seduced by his in
sidious prose in the first article to
appear in America on Ronald Firbank,
o. perchance by his verbal propaganda
for the latest "Pierrot of the Minute"
more irresiatible by reason of textual
citation The casket of jewels, precious
stones of perversity, had tempted them.
