Show Spoiled His Banquet. I am sure my most embarrassing moment was at a banquet I attended some time ago in honor of a visiting celebrity whom I had never seen. The guest of honor was late in arriving ar-riving and while we waited I became thirsty and looked around for a waiter to bring me another glass of water. A dignified man in a dress suit was hurrying up toward the head of the table and I beckoned to him. He stopped stop-ped by my place and I made known my want quietly enough, but as 1 look back at it it seems as though 1 might as well have shouted it through a megaphone. For he wns the guest of honor, hurrying hur-rying to his place. Chicago Tribune. |
