Miss Haw Tecllned at half length In ths Turkish Corner and asked the piker what he thought of Stenklewlca. The Piker knew that he had heard that name aprung somewhere before, but If he hud tried to Pronounce It he Would have gone to the Rug. However, he was not to be flopped. He knew the kind of Conversational Parsley n Inthat la needed to garnish a tellectual Vacuum, and he passed some of It to Henrietta.

Tea, but ft didnt get Into me the way Vogner does," replied the Tall Party, This waa the Cue for the Piker to Insert his speech on Vogner. He said he preferred Vogner any day In the Week on account of the distinct Appeal to the Intellectual Side and the Atmosphere of Mysticism, whatever that waa He said hs couldq t listen to Vogner without going Into a Cold Sweat and Chewing the Buttons off Jits Gloves, particularly If the Interpretation waa made with a Broad and Comprehensive Virtuosity and such Mastery of Technique as to abolish all suggestion of the Intermediary and bring one Into direct Communion with the Then the Tall Man would know Just as much about It as the Piker did.

She loved to hear the Piker cut loose about the Cubist v Even when he got In over his M?ad she was right there swimming along after him and never missing a stroke. Mrs Wigley was stuck on his Conversation because he said so many things that could be Thought About later on. Nearly everyone who heard him went Home and Thought about what he had said and Wondered what 'he had been Duvlng at Mrs Wigley had aTheory that an Artist who Is any Good at nil should be able to suggest through the Medium of Colors all that he or ahe felt and suffered during the Throes of Execution.
