"Why, you haven't had a liqueur yet," cried Heineman. "No...but where can I meet you people later?" "Cafe de Rohan at five...opposite the Palais Royal." "You'll never find it." "Yes I will," said Andrews. "Palais Royal metro station," they shouted after him as he dashed out of the door. He hurried into the gardens. Many people sat on benches in the frail sunlight.
Heineman picked up a glass and waved it in the air before drinking it off. Several people got up and filled it up from their bottles with white wine and red. The French soldier at the next table pulled an army canteen from under his chair and hung it round Heineman's neck.
Andrews caught the girl's eye and they both started laughing convulsively again. Andrews noticed how erect and supple she walked as his eyes followed her to the door. Andrews's party followed soon after. "We've got to hurry if we want to get to the Lapin Agile before closing...and I've got to have a drink," said Heineman, still talking in his stagey Shakespearean voice.
Daniel Heineman, Millard Shaler, and William Hulse. He also had the very effective help of his First Secretary of Legation, Mr. Hugh Gibson, now our Minister to Poland. These men were able to arrange the financial difficulties of the fleeing Americans despite closed banks, disappearing currency, and general financial paralysis.
"If I can get hold of a piano and some lessons and the concerts keep up you won't be able to get me away from Paris with wild horses. No, sir, I want to see what Paris is like.... It's going to my head so it'll be weeks before I know what I think about it." "Don't think about it.... Drink," growled Heineman, scowling savagely.
"God I hate people who don't drink," cried Heineman, pouring out wine. "A man who don't drink just cumbers the earth." "How are you going to take it in America when they have prohibition?" "Don't talk about it; here's le Guy. I wouldn't have him know I belong to a nation that prohibits good liquor.... Monsieur le Guy, Monsieur Henslowe et Monsieur Andrews," he continued getting up ceremoniously.
Heineman, his face crimson, bowed to all sides, more like a Chinese porcelain figure than ever, and started singing in all solemnity this time. "Hulas and hulas would pucker up their lips, He fell for their ball-bearing hips For they were pips ..." His chunky body swayed to the ragtime. The woman in the corner kept time with long white arms raised above her head.
Heineman burst into the restaurant at that moment, slamming the door behind him so that the glass rang, and the fat woman and the hairy man started violently in their chairs. He tumbled into a place, grinning broadly. "And what have you done to Walters?" Heineman wiped his glasses meticulously.
"But just think of it," said Aubrey, "that means world revolution with the United States at the head of it. What do you think of that?" "Moki doesn't think so," said Heineman. "And Moki knows." "She just knows what a lot of reactionary warlords tell her," said Aubrey. "This man I was talking with at the Crillon I wish I could tell you his name heard it directly from...Well, you know who."
"For Heaven's sake let's beat it from here.... Gives me a pain this place does." Heineman beat his fist on the table. "All right," said Andrews, getting up with a yawn. Henslowe and Andrews walked off, leaving Walters to follow them with Heineman. "We're going to dine at Le Rat qui Danse," said Henslowe, "an awfully funny place.... We just have time to walk there comfortably with an appetite."
