The one in question is an equestrian statue, in bronze, of a man astride a horse, mounted on a granite pedestal, set In a grassy circle. Many tourists look it over, and occasionally some- body comes along and registers a complaint. This timge it was a man with a woman, presumably his wife. “Wonder why they put that sort of man on that sort of horse?” “Can’t you read?’ The inquiry snap- ped like a mouse trap. “Oh, I can read, all right. The thing I'm wanting to know is why they put a soldier on a race horse?" “It isn’t @ race horse and you know it. It's a war steed. I should think you'd have a little regard for a gen- eral who——" “Oh, let up, can't you, I'm just talking about the foolishness of "the sculptor putting a big chunk of a fellow on a slim mount that calls for a jockey." if you're so smart, why don't you make a better statue right now, You are forever finding fault do and never 88-Note Mahogany Player-Piano Extra Special at $285 Arthur Jordan Piano Co.

He had to. “I didn’t say it, and what's more I'm not going back on what I did say. What I told you was that the bronze balls with the long points that we saw in the case were used as weapons of defense by the Amazons. and that they doubtless were the originals of the hatpins your mother used to wear, meaning anybody’s mother who wore hatpins.” “For goodness sake, keep quiet and come on.” The man shut up and went on. And a lone, lorn soul who had been skirt- ing the circle near enough for the; skirmish tried to see if the woman wore a wedding ring.
