written for us by his wife "Well, Baby," he caught my arm and sort of swung me around as if we'd had good news, "here's where Seeley and Fields start from scratch again. Watch us grow, ladies and gentlemen. Watch us grow!" That's the thing about that man of mine that makes him — well, that makes him just that. Here were the savings we had been thinking meant security and a care-free future swept away. And he could make a joke of it ! There are so many swell things about Benny. His generosity, his loyalty, his good sportsmanship. They're the things that make his friends love him. But it's the other things in him, the silly, foolish, tender things, that would make me pick up and follow him to the ends of the world. I knew it was going to be like that, the first time I ever laid eyes on him. It was in Chicago, fifteen years ago, and I was looking for a partner. Somebody told me about Benny, who was entertaining in a night club out there, and so I stopped in one night to look over his act. There were two other fellows working with him. Jack Salisbury, who's retired to his own farm now, and Benny Davis, whom you all know now as a song writer. But Benny Fields was the one who stopped me. He wasn't so smooth then as he is to-day. But the talent and ability were all there. {Cont'd on page 76)
