 abroad this summer as anybody in
 America. He couldn't book pass age until he had arranged for
 someone to take care of his 30

 Cincinnati. His sister finally con- sented to care for them during
 his absence. So he has just sailed from here for Athens to finish an- other book.

 hoven constantly. speaks Japa-
 nese, has lectured in an insane
 asylum, is accused of preferring
 mice, cats. pigeons, turtles, canar-

 his best writing with his 30 ca-
 naries singing, and his macow on
 his shoulder. He can't bear to kill
 even a fly!
