‘AIRY STORY—Once there was a Californian who would rather have lived in New York. i \ ~~ A Jirat [ational Picture sS67 He did his noble best, but it took all he could drag off and away from his encounters to keep the palace (which she had picked out as theirs) going. His armor grew thin in spots. Finally, he came to after one severe joust, and found that he was minus his mount and that his armor had been sold to a passing junkman. Then the Dean of the College of Heraldry, to whom a knight-errant is only a conditioned student of chivalry, sent him the official raspberry, gules, with third or final notice. Thus disbarred, the once knight- errant started a bang-up little forge by a busy highway, where he maintained a service-station for battle-scarred paladins, He beat a nasty rivet. But the yokelry resented his obvious superiority. His customers felt, like- wise, that a smith who presumed to approximate their own haughty level was a presumptuous caitiff. The maiden said she was a fool to have thought he was a fairy Prince at all. He told her it was too con- founded bad that she hadn't known it in the first place. And they fought about it for days and days. Henry William Hanemann, Twenty Years After IX 1906 the automobile was merely a vehicle.
