take q spin down the road"
"What do you mean2" Mr.. Gutz asked.
81 mean get out Of here. Beat 1t. Get the
air. You're too numerous. You're too many
and too much. Get away from here. DO
you want me to throw you and your car
over beyond the next hill. Step On it"
Mr.. Gutz with an alarmed expression
went away at thirty miles an hour. .

to know It, but once in a while you've got

Erskine had carpenters put up the plat
form for the tournament. Edith was AFRAID
the sound Of hammers would get AROUND
the neighbOrhOOd and cause inquiries, but
it didn't. She had been game for the pre-
liminaries, but Welshed on the finals. She
could not stay at home the day the little
boys were to haste each other.

frankly I'm q woman; II l saw some Doy

get up and stop It. So I'm going away fol

Mrs. Foster had two sons, Sid and Billy
She was president of the FOrtnightly
She received a notice Of an tmproviseC
meeting Of the %Fortnightly to be held OF
her lawn of a Tuesday afternoon at three
o'clock. The subject was Greek art. Th'
speaker was a Mr.. Gutz. She did not know
how this had been arranged and Shl
thought she might have been consulted
But she accepted the meeting.
Some Of the best things Of the Fortnight
ly had been eXtempOraneOus. When IN
Hindu pOet-Mrs. Foster never could re
member his name, but he spoke so NIGEL!
/ Of NirVana-had come out, it had beel
quite on the spur OF the moment. iC wa
the same way with ana IL wa
so lucky they had a snOwstOrm that after
noon. Also thus when Carl Sandburg an
Vachel Lindsay had danced their poems
Mrs. Foster liked the inspiration OF tn
eXtempOrlZed.
Tbis Inspiration was introducing a MI
, i Gutz to the FOTtnightly. He came to tai
Of Hellenic Lhysical culture and It's rela
ton to beauty. 1t was requested tina
/ mothers should bring their daughters.
Erskine came home at noon that Tuesda.
for the show at his house. A dozen Q
Sherry's beaux had ringside seats. Claud
was referee. He appointed Simpson and IN
to be in the corners with the water buckets
towels, n spOnges.
"I wonder if either Of you can squil
+, water through your teeth 2" he asked.
Neither of us could.
D eve read thai it's a part Of the tecl
nique,' he said. "Well, we cant expect I
D be altogether professional. Wen do til
? best we can, but I wish you could squil
water through yOur teeth. 1 hope you ca
flaD the towels"
KayO and Butch Miller, the real handler
who had to be SUPPRESSED behind the fict
e tiOus seconds, took each a wet towel an
:. glared at each other. KayO had been trytn
to get a fight out Of Butch by giving ava
fifteen pounds.
:. Only one dependable mother had bee
found. She was Mrs. ArChdeacon. She
the great nOncOnfOrmist of Harlow Hill
1t is probably a revolt against the nan
Of ArchdeacOn. She is rich and lovely.
She had a son on the card and 81
k wanted to see him smash, or if had to b
get smashed. She and Sherry were the on
/ ladies at the exposition and, with an Il
d stinet for the feminine sOftening or Dr.
tality, each had some needlewOrk and th'
sat in wicker chairs on the lawn.
We started off auspiciOusly. Claude 1
