We're going to make a real Western picture, Lite, you and I. Lee and Gil and all the rest will be in it, of course; but we're going to put in the real West. And we're going to put in the ranch, the REAL Lazy A, Lite. Not these dinky little sets that Burns has toggled up with bits of the bluff showing for background, but the ranch just as it it used to be."
All letters except the one from His Majesty's impatient Surveyor of Taxes, who threatens to take proceedings "in the district in which you reside," are read and re-read, from "My dearest Bill" to "Yours as ever." Every scrap of news from home has tremendous value. Winkle, the dinky Persian with a penchant for night life, has presented the family with five kittens. Splendid!

He looked like a fashion plate himself and he swung a pair of dinky glasses on a cord as he listened to me and looked me over. Then he turned me down flat! "I told Bill about it. Bill was kind of tied up just then himself. That was before he made his big strike. But he was a different fellow from me.
It seemed to him that Jimmy missed the main point. "Didn't I tell you there was nothing doing when you wanted to take those things the other day?" Spike's face cleared. As he had suspected, Jimmy had missed the point. "Why, say, boss, yes. Sure! But dose was little, dinky t'ings. Of course, youse wouldn't stand fer swipin' chicken-feed like dem. But dese is different. Dese di'monds is boids.
"You was told distinctively we wanted it two lofts, not one, and here you come back with a one-loft proposition." Henochstein rose to leave.

He opened the show-room door.
"The Pinky Dinky for all his fun and levity has a clean mind." "A thoroughly clean mind. Not like Esmeer's the Pig!" "If once he began to think about sex, how could he be comfortable at croquet?" "It's their Damned Modesty," said Hatherleigh suddenly, "that's what's the matter with the Pinky Dinky. It's Mental Cowardice dressed up as a virtue and taking the poor dears in.

"The Dude who shindys 'round with those things in pictures, wears a damn, dinky, little pleated coat!" "Lots of fish down in the brook, All you need is a rod, and a line, and a hook,"

"Cheer, cheer, Darby," said he. "We may pull through yet." "Don't think so," I insisted. "It's us for pushing up the daisies. Good luck if we don't meet again!"
