Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from What Can We Do With Aunt Sally? A Comedy in Two Acts (Mrs. Hastings stylishly-dressed, matronly, discovered fluttering nervously about room, rearranging magazines, adjusting shades; Mr. Hastings, light summer suit, reads newspaper near table; Betty, in pretty voille, plays softly at piano.) Mrs. Hastings - (nervously) Everet, since you must have read that paper through three times already, perhaps you will be good enough to start for the Professor. It would be fine hospitality to make him wait in our little countryside station. Mr. Hastings - (laying down paper; speaks easily) Now, calm yourself, mother. I have already met the milk train to please you, and there is but one other, due in fifteen minutes. It only takes five to reach the station. Mrs. H. - (with sigh) I know; but you always insist upon having engine trouble, when anyone is dying or the errand is very important. You should give yourself extra time. Mr. H. - (calmly) Well, I will leap out of the car, if it fails me, and meet him on foot. There is plenty of time left for that. I do not suppose the train operators have run a special, even to accommodate the Great High Mogul of a bird specialist your club has raked up. Mrs. H. - (scornfully) Raked up, indeed! We had to fight as hard to get him as one does over a piece of real lace at a bargain sale. (Enter Jean, door-rear; speaks to Mrs. H.)Is there any other extras you wish done, ma´am, before I get my mind completely on the dinner? I ain´t got much time left to spare.
