Humor in Slang.
j Same trine in the past five years.
Rinq W I.ardner, newspaper humor
ist gnd ixqiular short story writer,
] trod' qnietl.v on the necks of AA’iff
Rogers, 11. I. Phillips, Toto the Clown,
and similar American entertainers,
and ascended to the position of ac
claimed mate to Mark Twain, Dean
'.Swift and Heinrich Heine. Sunday
, newspaper readers were surprised
j when the defies came bustling from
I their place on the Heights with the
', newg that they being made to laugh •
] each week by the work of a Genius-^-1
they stressed the capital "G".
I Now, apparently as a kindly tap]
jof conservative recognition, the ven
erable house of Scribner has brought
I out his sixth book. “The Love Nest 1
. j and Otiier Short Stories.” under its
own seal.
, Each story in this collection is a
chronicle of the jieople. wn'tten by a
, connoisseur for himself. Tlie author j
has listened with a sensitive accuracy |
to the babbling of the multitudes i
about him, closely examined thin
conted lives, half revealed emotions;
* uncovered drama, horror, and humor
in slang—and written them into this
I book.
Two of the "Other Stories" are. I
believe, better than the title one. Tliey
are “Haircut” and “AA’ho Dealt?"
- Both of these stories are written with
. out the insertion of a single comma.
- and the language is tersely occurate.
. One is told by a barber and the other
i by a suburban bridge fiend. The nu- j
. keeps strictly out of them, he does
- not even midge in between the lines.
. They ate as artistically done, as sol
s idly complete, as anything that I
. have ever read.
i A friend of mine from Texas, whom
■ I shall call Clarence for short, re
i cently made his first trip to New
York anil wrote me the following viv
■ id. but lacking in objective, sketch of
his impressions of the city—with apol
ogies, incidentally, to O. O. Mclntyre, j
New York. Introspeciively. ,
The city of strange contrasts. The
homeless city. The ciipitol of the
world. That its New York.
Hebe hunger, there satiation. On
, one side dirt and filth, on th# other
shining cleanliness. (In one section
, abject . poverty and physical want—
in another wealth and riches.
Here you see millions of people with
no other sustenance than' the chaff
from the wheat consumed by the
luckier. There, are hundreds of peo
ple smugly contented with what they
have gotten out of life.
Life at is low ebb. Life in its
ideal. S ,
Fifth Avenue with its shops and
housing accommodations for the J
wealthy. Sixth Avenue with its in -
, sanitary stores and tenement houses
fi r tbpipoor.
Truly,’ a city of contrasts.
Subways, where men are men and
women are their equals. AVhere cour
tesy. chivalry, and innumerable other
virtues of the middle ages are forgot
ten. AA’here tahlo ds are read and.
unfortunately, believed. AA’liere the
byword is “Every man for himself,
and God help the hindmost.”
A city of foreigners is New York.
The Capitol of the world? Yes. but it
is not American. A conglomeration
of foreigners only slightly American
ized, who have built the greatest city
] iii tlie world.
’ Everyone talking through h’s nose.
The soft, throaty tone of the South
erner’s voice marks him as a stranger.
] The American New Yorker might
' talk with a nasal twang because of
his varied business contacts. But
’ that's not it. H« talks through his
nose because it requires less exertion,
and the New Yorker is a paradox—
| swift moving, but lazy.
Six millions of people, all of them
’ rushing about as though the very ex
’ istpnee of the world depended on their
speed. Everyone with something to
do that must be done in a hurry. Or
. at least, so they act. The motto is,
