You
are
true
savages
.
Already
has
begun
the
custom
of
wearing
human
teeth
.
In
another
generation
you
will
be
perforating
your
noses
and
ears
and
wearing
ornaments
of
bone
and
shell
.
I
know
.
The
human
race
is
doomed
to
sink
back
farther
and
farther
into
the
primitive
night
ere
again
it
begins
its
bloody
climb
upward
to
civilization
.
When
we
increase
and
feel
the
lack
of
room
,
we
will
proceed
to
kill
one
another
.
And
then
I
suppose
you
will
wear
human
scalp-locks
at
your
waist
,
as
well
--
as
you
,
Edwin
,
who
are
the
gentlest
of
my
grandsons
,
have
already
begun
with
that
vile
pigtail
.
Throw
it
away
,
Edwin
,
boy
;
throw
it
away
.

"
What
a
gabble
the
old
geezer
makes
,
"
Hare-Lip
remarked
,
when
,
the
teeth
all
extracted
,
they
began
an
attempt
at
equal
division
.
They
were
very
quick
and
abrupt
in
their
actions
,
and
their
speech
,
in
moments
of
hot
discussion
over
the
allotment
of
the
choicer
teeth
,
was
truly
a
gabble
.
They
spoke
in
monosyllables
and
short
jerky
sentences
that
was
more
a
gibberish
than
a
language
.
And
yet
,
through
it
ran
hints
of
grammatical
construction
,
and
appeared
vestiges
of
the
conjugation
of
some
superior
culture
.
Even
the
speech
of
Granser
was
so
corrupt
that
were
it
put
down
literally
it
would
be
almost
so
much
nonsense
to
the
reader
.
This
,
however
,
was
when
he
talked
with
the
boys
.
When
he
got
into
the
full
swing
of
babbling
to
himself
,
it
slowly
purged
itself
into
pure
English
.
The
sentences
grew
longer
and
were
enunciated
with
a
rhythm
and
ease
that
was
reminiscent
of
the
lecture
platform
.
"
Tell
us
about
the
Red
Death
,
Granser
,
"
Hare-Lip
demanded
,
when
the
teeth
affair
had
been
satisfactorily
concluded
.
"
The
Scarlet
Death
,
"
Edwin
corrected
.
"
An
'
do
n't
work
all
that
funny
lingo
on
us
,
"
Hare-Lip
went
on
.
"
Talk
sensible
,
Granser
,
like
a
Santa
Rosan
ought
to
talk
.
Other
Santa
Rosans
do
n't
talk
like
you
.
"
The
old
man
showed
pleasure
in
being
thus
called
upon
.
He
cleared
his
throat
and
began
.
"
Twenty
or
thirty
years
ago
my
story
was
in
great
demand
.
But
in
these
days
nobody
seems
interested
