...piano. In no time Juanin began a heel-stomping dance; Doctor Jaime handed around glasses of sweet Malaga wine while keeping time with a multicolored duster (a present from Uncle Pablo); Doña Lola swayed happily to the rhythm, urging the dancers on with shouts of "Ole!" To show off the Picasso pictures, the family cheerfully struck matches to give Editor Bernier a first tantalizing peek.

But Jack is proud of his gun and his badge; he loves to crank up the siren on the state police car, and his noblest ambition used...
