Juat thla morning on Thlrty-elghth

We uaed to co, camping on Raccoon

had Invited eome nelghbora to dinner
and tha piny. He (Uncovered that he
could not aecura aeata for any of tha
big hlta. And ao Inatead of taking
fsople. Tha breach now la too wide
between art and life.
At luncheon a few daya ago I eat
next to a man who uaed to grubataka
with ma on I'ark How. Wa wera al-
waya about ona jump ahead of tha
aherlff. Wa amoked eurh other'a clga

Ha waa talking with a bob haired
girl who wora hoot owl glaaaea. Bin

one knowa her anyway. It doean't

My friend of tha old daya waa aay

He got no further. I aaked him to

minded him of the time we got put

There la a yniinsr producer In town
who came out of Kansas an earnest,

know what has happened, but he has

If a young man or young woman

There la a young man In particular.
He waa once a breezy, tine fellow. Sue

who goes to the mpvles is only half
educated and fiuarter-cultivated,
Chinese porcelains are beautiful. I
know as much about them a the puz

The Kang-She or the Bam-Lee periods
may mean a lot to some folks, but
they are less than nothing in my life.'
Recause I am not versed In Chinese
porcelains thpre is no reason why I
should be the object of stony stores

I can do a match trick that one

Over His Head.
Expressionism in the theater, too,
Is something thSt Is way over my
head. I have never felt the Impulse
to reach beyond the limits of realism.
A stage Irishman in green whiskers
who slaps his flapping pantalooned
partner over the head with a blad
