CHAPTER 13
"The Iron Claw"
AND
Jack Pickford and Louise Huff
IN
Somewhere I ran across this little
verse:
Where can I find '
Two wives who sit
And do not gossip
Just a bit?
Where can I find
A taxi bloke
Whom I can hire
And not go broke ?
I presume the answer is nowhere.
A Michigan girl got a pin in her
throat. Everyone got busy. Some
one told her to eat bread, another
to call a doctor. She started sing
ing ragtime and the pin came out.
Ragtime is some use somewhere.
It's a fine thing to be able to find
a blanket to sleep under these nights.
I see that some one is to publish a
book of Francois Villon's. I have
never read but one poem of Francois
Villon's and that told how the priest
came to shrive him before he was
hanged and he told the father in
little poem that ho regretted nothing
of his life as a vagabond, except tne
following:
"O bubbles of the vanished wine
To which my lips were never set.
0 ruby lips, which dimpled close to
mine,
Whose ruddy warmth I never met,
Father but trifles these
Yet these are the thing that I re
gret."
If all his poems are like this they
'might be worth reading.
