Then comes the matinee when

I stand there and go through the

First thing I know I find myself
lookin' down at that audience.
You know, it's funny, but that's
the first time I ever saw the peo-
pie in an audience. 1t amt an octo-
pus any more. It's fellows and
girls and women that look like
the woman that runs the restau-
rant where I eat, or the one who
sits across the way on the bus.
And what do you think l see.
Why, right there in the front row
is Vingie. With a grin all the way
across her little pink face. And
clear in the back is Marge, and
she's watchin' me SO hard her eyes
are round and shiny.

lips unfreeze. In a minute I'm

Boy, is that a swell feeling!-Like

I'm still feeling like a bird on the

Marge comes back. She rushes
right over to me, Joe" she says
first time she's ever called me
Joe. Joe, you were wonderful. I
knew you could do it." And she
takes my arm and hugs it to her.

Fright behind her is Vingie and
she's saying, II saw you, saw
you," and dancing around and clap
ping her hands.
Well, if I'm still a bird, I'm a
dead one. All that swell feeling is
gone.
One thing I've never done is lie.
I've been told I'm too dumb to lie.
Well, maybe. But still I don't lie.
Only so help me if I didn't want to
then. But I said, at wasn't me,
Honey. Charley was playing from

So tell her how it all was.
She looks at me and her eyes get

sounded like it does when she talks
to Vingie just before Vingie goes to

she says.

Just then Charley goes by.
Hello, Charley" Marge says, and
turns her back on him, plain as

I'm beginning to see how much

hands above his head and grins
and keeps going.
And Marge just says, Come on,
Vingie," and holds out her hand.
Vingie frowns a little. Cant ]
walk on the other side and hold
Joe's hand?"
So she does.
That night Marge put her hands
on my shoulders and says: Joe, l

she leans against me and puts her

wi lows in the orchestra call me
Bunny. They're nice fellows all
right and they don't do it to hurt
my feelings, but I'm scared of audi
ences, see, and every time l get
up in front of one my mouth starts
to twitch and it makes my nose
wiggle-like a rabbits. I've seen
myself in a mirror and got to adj
NIT if I was one of the fellows I'd
be calling me Bunny too. You get
what mean.
Nine years I've been in Jake
Little's orchestra playing the sax
and the bassoon. First we went all
over the country but now we've
got neat little spot in Hollywood.
Jake likes me and he thinks play
the sweetest sax he ever heard, but
long time ago he quit passing me
solo parts because sure as I ever
got up where l faced an audience
I'd get nervous and my darned
mouth would start twitching and
well, there l was.
I've had to sit back and watch
plenty of other fellows come and
go, getting the solos, getting the
hands, getting the raises in pay,
and getting new and bigger con-
tracts some place else. Now it's
Charley WEIGH.
l play better'n he does-oh, that
amt bragging-even Charley'n tell
you that. Only Charley's got the
personality. And he's good looking.
And Marge likes him. That's the
rub.
Marge is head usher here at the
Zenobia. One of those cute little
fashy-eyed girls in the satin uni
forms. You've seen EN-. Brass
buttons down the front and swallow
tails over their tight blue satin
pants. You wouldn't think to look
at Marge that she's like she is.
Practical and hard working.
She's had a tough time, see.
She's twenty-five but you'd never
guess it. And she's got a kid five
years old. The cutest little trick
you ever saw. Vingie. Vingie likes
me too. why do they call you
Bunny" she says to me, and she
looks at my ears like she thinks
maybe they'll grow up out of my
hair.
Because I'm rabbit, see,"
tell her. Only I'm looking at her
mother.
Marge frowns and then she says,
"That's what makes me so mad at
you. Why do you let yourself be a
rabbit"
Marge is like that. What she
don't want to be, she won't let her
self be. Marge got married when
she was sixteen to some rich folks
kid He run out on her before
Vingie was born and ever since
Marge has taken care of herself.
She's got a nice little apartment
and she dresses Vingie up clean
and cute. Oh I tell you, Marge is
smart.
She's too good for me. She ought
to have a fellow that could do a
lot for her. She says to me, "If you
were only the sort who'd ever gel
ahead" And she looks at me
cross. II like you, Bunny" she'll
say, better than any fellow I ever
knew, but I don't want to get mar.
ried to backseat sax player who'll
never be anything else"
Charley WEIGH has been making
a play for Marge. l like Charley
only he's the darnedest guy about
getting to work on time. Always
the last one. Skating across the
stage and freezing into position the
very second the curtain starts up
We've kept telling him some time
he'll miss it. He laughs and says
he'll commence starting earlier
But he never does.
"Charley's fun," Marge says tc
me. "And he'll get ahead too"

Address

Sword swallowing, well known
Hindu practice, is ritual also per-
formed by the Zuni and other
southwestern Indians. To them,
swallowing a feather sword is 4
sacred religious expression.
Since time immemorial the
sword-swallower's dance has been
regarded by these Indians as just
as essential in raising successful
crops as soil preparation and irri-
cation are to our way of farming.
