...Fellow feels hurt speaking this way. Thou wert right, Horace: Painters have licence in everything. But do artists? One bit called, "Odalisque", a young girl reclining on a coach looks more like Steig's stuff, but no, it's another of Borges. Utrillo's contribution had best be called "four big hips going to grub" than "Auberge". And, gentle readers, if you see the "Magnetic Cultivation of Planets," in Paul Klee's little brain child then please come to the Vagabond's Tower. Rare souls are always welcome...

Shick, city inspector; ranked first among the boys in his class and was local president of the class, captain of the state championship debating team, and winner of the annual Rotary Club of Louisville award...
...Wert states, "The accelerating effect of temperature on age-hardening is assumedly the result of an increase in the diffusion rate with increase in temperature. Is it not conceivable that pressure's decelerating effect on aging comes about through interference with the diffusion process? High hydrostatic pressures, as we know, compress the metal lattice, in this case, the solvent metal lattice; conceivably the 'viscosity' of, and the difficulty of atomic movement within, the solid solution is proportionately increased, Diffusion then becomes slower and the progress of age-hardening retarded...
Since lead is the most compressible of the three metals, and iron the least, Dr. Wert notes that this relative compressibility might be thought to explain the nature of his results although "one would hardly anticipate from their comparative values that the lead alloy would be many times as sensitive to pressure effects as are the aluminum alloys or that the iron nitrogen alloy would show,--if, indeed, it shows anything,--a sensitivity so small as to escape detection by the usual Rockwell hardness tester...
