How about him, eh?--the two-spot of clubs in billiard cloth and buttons at the door. There's no tellin' what the Studio'll have next--maybe a sidewalk canopy and a carriage caller. Swifty Joe's gettin' ambitious. Me gettin' mixed up with that Newport push has gone to Swifty's head like a four-line notice does to the pompadour of a second row chorus girl. First off he says it's a shame I don't have a valet.
