Forty The Spectator Soft through the shadows of purplish hue Gently the music comes stealing on wings Of light. The tone grew deep and warm With life and breath. The artist's bow O'erdrew the stringsg the sound was rich And full, still lingered vibrantly Although no morethe master played. Each gentle curve, the smooth dark wood, The chin rest cool, the graceful bow Enhanced the eye, and soothed the mind. The full, sweet notes awoke the sense Of sound, unused, and quickened it To pulsing beat. The gleaming eye, The wondering look, all swept along With beauty's urging power. The sound Increased, the bow crashed down then Upward swept, again it fell And this time stayed to rest beside Its master's quiet form. The light Grew dim, then faded into dark. The purple turned to blackg the notes No more were heard, and silence deep As death sank over all. Blind Bob vu Old Blind Bob died the other day, just went to bed and never woke up. All the school kids are going to chip in and put up a statue to him. I guess it will be one of the first statues ever put up to a man who never done anything great but was just great in him- self. He must have been pretty old, 'cause Pa knew him when he was a boy. Every recess, Pa said, he'd come around to the school and talk to the kids. Pa said that he knew every boy and girl in the city of Montgomery by name. I didn't know him very well, but every summer I went to visit Bennie, he would pass by, blowing his trumpet and peddling his candy, stuff his wife made. It surely was good too, especially the sugar taffy. Everytime I'd hear his trumpet I'd run out to buy some. He didn't know who I was, but he always had something nice to say. One day weihad a long talk about the Italians and the Ethiopians, and he made me feel like he really liked me. I guess that's why everyone liked him so much, because he was so friendly. Anyway it surely was a shock when old Blind Bob died. A '

Forty-two The Spectator The Parasite HWELL, I declare. Do you mean to tell me you invited that- Eggy Sanford, Mom. Yes, that Eggy boy home again for dinner without asking my permission? And the maid's night out at that! Oh, Johnnie, how could you be so thoughtless. Why you know he'1l think we can't afford a servant. Every time he comes she's either sick or has some excuse for being absent. Besides, this will be the fifth time he's been here and you've been there exactly twice. Three times, Mom. Don't contradict. You certainly don't expect me to count the time you went over there and had cold ham and potato, do you? Your poor old Mother! While you sit in English Class doing Algebra home- work, which, incidentally, your father got a note from the principal about, and spend the night out at football practice, I stay home wash- ing and mending. A lot of gratitude you have. Johnnie, how many times have I told you not to wash your filthy hands in the kitchen sink. Well, Katie's been in the bath tub ever since I got home. Kindly relate what the special occasion is. Don't be impudent, young man. .She's going out with that lovely new boy down the street. You mean that Sidney Farbs, thing? Oh, Mom, have a heart, he's the biggest sissy in Central High. Think of the poor girl's repu- tation! That's exactly what I am doing. Just for your information I think he's one of the nicest boys either of you know. Besides, Kather- ine must associate with as many people as possible. Don't forget, he went to the Simmons School for Young Gentlemen, and he can in- troduce her to all his friends. Once she gets that ball rolling . . . Aw, listen mom, speaking from a m.an's point of view, I'll see your mind at ease right now. You're not going to have a bit of trouble pawning sis off, she's strictly O.K. John Horace Wimple, 'I have a mind to-oh, here's your father, good evening, Michael. Did you have a hard day at the office? You can't imagine what's been going on here. The boiler broke and some- one stole the gate in the back yard, the club meets here tomorrow and- Which club, dear? Oh, the 'Anti-War, You Women of America! But, let me tell you what's really the matter.
