Two men, one with thin black hair and the other with luxurious red mop, stood side by side, like day and night. The red was smiling ready to see the funny
side of danger, the black, with his wry face and triangle eyebrows, was the embodiment of despair.

Some of these idle, shallow writings belong to fuzzy French dreamers, some to pushing American wheeler-dealers.

1. The world'Was insane, and I no longer wished
to have anything to do with it.
2. There was a further knock on the front door,
then silence, and I raged at the stupidity of the
country police.
3. Very soon afterwards there was a concerned official
face staring at me through the jagged hole in
the glass of the kitchen door.

4. As soon as he cut me free, he insisted on provid
ing the immemorial English answer to all the major
crises of the existence and motherly watched me down two cups of his dark brown tea.
5. I had to disillusion him as to the lengths to which
the literary London will go in pursuing me for
my "ungainly" book.
6. I understand the commune was subsequently
raided, but nothing more incriminating was
found than the inevitable cannabis.
7. I spent a month of misery, I suppose, in some
thing veiy like a profound sulk.
8. A carbon of the first three typed-out chapters
had remained in London.
9. I have tried my best, but I may have exagge
rated, especially in the attempts to transcribe
my persecutor's dialogue.
10. I have a small vice, I am rather fond of watching football matches, the sight of so much mindless energy devoted to the modern equivalent of the Roman circus.

What I like most about England is the civilised quality of living there, the comfort and convenience of the public transport, the English pubs, and the milk and the newspapers delivered to your door. I still remember roast Angus, and a wine bar in the Strand where we used to go every Wednesday to eat Stilton. There are values which must be preserved if England becomes continental and this is quite likely, when we get our cooking from Paris, our politics from Moscow, and our morals
from Cairo. As soon as we stop to cite John Ruskin, to tune Lennon and McCartney, to role-play Shakespeare and to trust in Time, we are the lost nation on the way to nowhere.
: the Smithsonian . .
The Smithsonian Institution brings to life the American cultural, social, scientific, and artistic treasures and heritage. It was bora from the generous legacy of James Smithson, a wealthy English scientist, and created by an act of Congress in 1846 to carry out the terms of Smithson's will. Today the Smithsonian has become the largest complex of museums, art galleries, and research facilities in the world. The Smithsonian includes 14 museums from the National Air and Space Museum to the National Zoological Park. About 20 million visitors come to the museums each year, and millions more share in the Smithsonian through travelling exhibitions displayed across the United States and abroad, magazines and educational programmes. It took the Smithsonian 5 years (1978-1983) to complete the first comprehensive inventory of its collections. The collections continue to grow, and only a tiny percentage of them is on display in the Smithsonian museums at any one time. In addition, the Smithsonian has a number of special research facilities,, such as an animal conservation and research centre near Front Royal, Virginia; a marine station at Fort Pierce, Florida; and an astrophysical station near Tucson, Arizona. Smithsonian research, now well into its second century, is still just beginning.
