his fingers. and wafted towards the

"Well, they must feel pretty proud
of you back in the old home town,

"Well, you know, when the White-
man band made a European tour

--beer, fine wines, and sausage! I
weighed 230 pounds when I went
back to Berlin that night."
"Aw, now, Hank, that's a bit thick.
You couldn't gain 50, 60 pounds like
that in one night, even if Whiteman
lost that much in several weeks," I
interrupted quickly.
"Ah, but you don't know me," he
assured me.

strong. I can't say as I believe it."
