The singers made an extensive tour
through Italy, during which Queen
Sophia of Greece heard them and
asked to meet them after the concert.
She was SO deeply impressed that she

That's a thing I'm not supposed

At the end of the cramped passage

reached the poorly furnished attic

weeks before. Lighting the gas, he
pulled down the window shade care

through the open window top trailed
a wire which ran to small box ana

When he had excluded himself from

ear. sat down to listen. What he
heard was apparently all-engrossing,
for he did not stir for an hour ex-
cept to lot down a note or two on the
writing pad which lay convenient to
his hand At the end of the hour he
took off his phones and, rising,
stretched himself.
