Tllustrious Potentate l.. Whiting
Estes says he is becoming more learned
in Shrine lore every day. Following
recent dinner of Shriners at the Com
mercial Club, the potentate on leaving
the club found that not only his car
but his chauffeur had vanished. He
phoned,to his home, to the garage and
to several other points in search of
the missing entourage and finally. in
desperation. to the police. An hour
later both car and chauffeur were found
on their way to pick up the potentate.
The chauffedrs explanation was that
two persons with Turkish buttons in
their buttonholes had borrowed the
car, saying the potentate had so or
dered. They had appropriated car,
chauffeur and all. and when confronted
by the potentate coolly informed him
he was "forgetful- thereupon the
penalty of the ritual for a Thought
less" shriner was inflicted upon the
doubly injured potentate, whose only
redress is 10 get even with the next
class of initiates" Henry Lansburgh
and Capt. Louis G. Wilson of the pa
troll showed the potentate the clause
in the ritual that covered the case
Mistakes like that of the illustsious
potentate are said to be costly-some-
times.
