ut amt as funny as Uncle Toms
Cabin" vouchsafed Comrade Pix
Henwether to the slide-trombonist,
but we won't let them know we think
SO. That's a durn pretty woman-the
one that's in love with the fat fellow"
was getting ready to go out and
break the big drum over his head when
a number of his fellow veterans made
him subside by placing their hands
over his mouth.
They kept him quiet, too, until the
beginning to the second act, when the
curtain went up on me standing on the
pedestal where the statue had been.
Comrade Henwether took one look and
exploded into merriment.
/ nearly burned up with anger. If it
hadn't been for the play / would have
jumped across the foot-light and
choked the old fool. I tried to assure
myself that it was all for the best ;
that I had to stand there because
otherwise I would probably have had
to appear in court for assault and
battery the next morning; but it
was difficult to do.
"You can't fool me-" said Hen
wether in the tone of subdued fog
horn. "That amt no statute. That's
the fat fellow that sat next to me at
dinner. l like him. He's funny. I'm
glad they've got clown in this show"
We had to hold the performance
while they put him out, protesting. He
delivered a Parthian shot at the
door.
"Ha! You'll be sorry you didn't let
me stay. Wait until you want to play
another piece. Where'll your band be
without me to play the bass-drum? Be-
sides, thought something like this
would happen so / hid all the music !"
Chuckling, he was yanked through
the doors.
We picked up the threads of the
story and tried to go ahead. ! stood
there with hands appraised and eyes
fixed upon the spot where Maryella
'ould enter. 1t was hard pose to hold
even for a few minutes, owing to
the interruption / had been obliged to
tand there in that strained position for
considerable time. My arms began to
feel like leaden weights and a spot on
my shin started to itch. 1t seemed as
if couldn't possibly keep from bend
ing over and scratching it. 1t was
maddeningi
This is all for the best; it's all for
the best" kept repeating. "If i,
didn't itch wouldn't know it was
alive"
But that didn't stop it. 1t seems a:
If it would take forever for Maryells
to make her entrance and lmeel at the
foot of the pedestal. How eagerly
waited for the words:
IT'S my dearest svish that my beau
ItifsI statue should come to life"
/ tried to think how it would b,
possible to make il plausible for thu
first move of a transformed statue tt
be that of scratching the shin.
| At last she crossed the stage. She
kuelt. She looked up at me. Sh.
