Absalom Skiggs has taken his pen in hand to drop us a line to say that #g0. Absalom points out what we knew anyhow, that “volume” and “sol- emn” won't stand hitched. Well, Absalom, we didn't rhyme -those three words. We knew the mo- ment that they were penned that they did not rhyme and that they never will rthyme, not even by the aid of a revision of the conmstitution or an en- abling act of congress. We had no Intention or desire to rhyme them. It we could, we would make “once” rhyme with “month,” buc we know we can’t and therefore we turn our attention to something else. The world is fortunately not crewd- ed with Ablasom Skiggses. Once in a while you run across one of this family, but luckily they are few and far between. What is an Absalom Skiggs? Gentle reader, an Absalom Skiggs is a critic who can't criticise. He is the gimlet-eyed, shoe-button- nosed, ingrowing-chinned, @rags-hair- ed person who watches everything you do. He never misses a stroke of your hammer or a sweep of your brush or & quaver of your voice or a step of your feet or a turn of your head. And he never says a word so long as you do fairly well. But the moment he thinks you have made a mistake ne jumps up with an “Aha! You've made a mistake!” That is all he looks for—mistakes. Why, any meas- 1y individual can sit down and com- pile an Encyclopedia Brittanica of mistakes any day in the week. Ab- salom Skiggs, however, picks out the ones that don’t matter. Still, it is well that we have the Absalom Skiggses; they make the rest of us loom up by contrast. No Soon Cver. “I love to hear you play,” he sald, “My reasons?
