The less they know about a thing, the more they give their fancy wing, and with their souding rigmaroles they shoot the welkin full of holes. It's sad when men in public prance, pa- rading woeful ignorance; they think their carnival of sound betrays a culture most profound. The talker never is a bore who knows his sub- Ject aft and fore; however humble be his theme, his words are a refreshing stream, for men are always glad to learn, no useful knowledge will they spurn, They will not jeer the earnest gent who knows just how to make a tent, who's spent a lifetime at the trade, who's seen a million good ones made. If he talks tents we'll hear his spiel, for facts will make a stay- ing meal, and we desire to hear the truth about all mundane things, in sooth. “Here speaks the master of his trade,” we say, “his words are wise and weighed; the man who's skillful with his hands and talks of things he understands is bound to shed some glowing rays upon the minds of human fays.” But he who's skilled in making tents won't talk of that, for fifteen cents.
