with the Amusement tnat he viii be In
structed without knowing IT, The real
after-dinner speaker knows how 10 do
this; the conventional after-dinner speak
er fails TO comprehend It. What is the
remedy? Perhaps there Is no effective
one. but the situation can be improved
by not asking men TO speak who do not
know how.
II q new window cord be needed at
home. one does not send for the plumber.
so II what is desired be a good speech
the first step should be 10 get a speaker.
The fact that the honorable Epaml-
nondas Pipps is a prominent statesman, a
great educator, or a noted scholar fur
nishes no reason WIZ he should be en-
gagged 10 make an after-dinner speech
any more than that he should be en-
Ployed 10 put up q lightning rod. He IS
unlikely 70 make more Of a success Of
one than Of the other. Epaminondas
should be left 70 do what he knows how
to do, and not be asked to do something
he knows nothing about. OF course.
Epaminondas is battered by the invita-
ton. and imagines he is a speaker. Were
he asked to sing. he would doubtless
imagine himself q singer.
After-dinner speaking IS an art. not
lost art. perhaps. but a rare art. Few
possess It. Many think they do. Conse-
ouently the diners suffer.
What OF the future Of dinners and
diners? Perhaps vaudeville or paid
amusement OF some sort These have
been introduced at private dinners. where
the brains of host and guests are IN
equal TO interesting each other after din
ner. Until this shall come. however, let
US pray TO be delivered from bores, and
! let the bores themselves confne their
plautudes within the narrowest possible
/ limits.
After-dlnner speakers. like poets. are
born. not made. That some may speed
ily be born and quickly grow up Is the
only hope Of those who, having survived
! the dinners Of the season Of 1sOs-lO. are
/ looking forward with patience bordering
on despair TO what may be in store for
them during the coming winter.
The Washington herald., 1910-08-04
PUBLIC DINNERS IN REVIEW.
And the Rare Art of After-dinner
Speaking

From the Philadelphia Press.
The season for what may be called
public dinners is now over Il may not
be amiss. therefore, 10 make some OBJ
servations thereon. From October TO
June annual dinners OF countless organi-
cations. testimonial dinners 10 important
or unimportant persons. are continually
being given. or. 10 use the conventional
word. rendered"
These vary greatly in cost Of food, but
little IN the character Of what is euphe-
mistically called the entertainment The
dinner itself. always at least half an
hour late, is disposed Of in about an hour
and half The food provision Is lighter
than IN the olden time. This IS well.
Very heavy and elaborate food IS no
longer the correct thing. Less wine is
consumed This IS well also. The repast
being concluded. speechmaking begins
Three-score years ago Philadelphia
gave a testimonial dinner TO Daniel
Webster. His speech was between three
and four hours long. We have improved
on that But the speeches at the average
dinner are really little less than a public
nuisance. Why IS this 500 There are
several reasons. IN the first place. the
demand for after-dinner speakers far ex-
ceeds the supply. which at once raises
the question as to what constitutes a
good after-dinner speech. First OF all,
undoubtedly wit. and wit does not con
sist In telling a string Of stale stories.
! The really witty man uses stories % en-
phasize his own wit. but the average
| speaker thinks he is witty because he
/ tells stories The diners laugh because
they are expected to laugh: could they
! follow their inclinations. they would CRY.
They are not amused; they are bored.
Wit in these days must be original.
spontaneous. or it is no wit at all. Il is
/ then because few men are witty that
/ after dinner speeches are so dull. Again.
| nothing is doue TO limit the time OF such
! speeches. hence number one will talk
for an hour, and by the time number
/ four (who may really have something 10
say is reached the guests are both weary
/ and sleepy Every speaker should be
/ limited 20 fifteen minutes. II man can
not make a good speech at a dinner in
fifteen minutes. he ought not to be given
an hour in which to make a poor one.
The man with a manuscript should be
assassinated on the spot. one who reads
a speech at a dinner has no appreciation
whatever either OF the occasion or OF
what the occasion demands.
The average diner wants to be amused
not instructed, or II TO be Instructed, the
instruction must be so deity turned II

From the Wide World Magazine
One Of the most remarkable creatures
known to natural history is the bower
bird, which builds a miniature cabin
made Of small sticks and surrounds it
with a perfectly kept ring or circus. com
posed of twigs and moss. studded with
brilliantly colored flowers fruits, and in
sects AS the curious ornaments become
faded they are constantly replaced by
fresh ones, so that scientists are inclined
to credit the bird with possession Of the
artistic sense. In these decorated play
grounds the males meet and pay their
court to the female. the bower being
used purely for the purposes of recrea-
ton and not as a nesting place. These
birds are chiefly found in the owen
