AMT NATURE WONDERFUL
Banqdets, Etc.
The word banquet used to mean a
feast. Probably it did when mankind
was just learning to talk and. couldn't
do anything else at banquet but eat.
But as mankind grew older they de-
Veloped meanness, hence banquet
speakers.
With these banquet speakers no
one ever should be afraid of swallow
ing a hot potato or getting food down
Che windpipe, You don't get a
chance. You do penance by listen
ing to the speaker. You have to ap-
plaud his speech because American
flags are always on display at ban
quets.
They soak you 5. or 10 dollars a
plate at a banquet. Plate is right,
although a $40 plate isn't any more
nutritious than 5 and 1O-cent store
plate and besides you can take the 5
and 1O-cent store plate home. These
diet squaders think they are starting
something new but they copied their
act from banqUets.
The words a banquet speaker says
that always strike home and make
a hit with the unfortunates are,
Gentlemen, I thank you" Then the
banquet is all over and the banquet
ers awake, smoke awhile, then go
home for something to eat.
Banqueters never suffer from in
digestion or insomnia.

CRITICS REFUSE TO
RECOGNIZE MOVIES
Reviewers Far Slower Than
Public to Realize Import
ance Of Silent Drama.
(By HERBERT BRENON)

1t is strange fact yet none tho
less true, that altho the public has
taken the motion picture drama most
seriously, the dramatic critic will not.
Altho he will see thousands of people
walking into beautiful theater for an
opening night of a .dignified photo
play, he Will consider II beneath his
dignity to witness and criticize it. lie
will assign to it a newspaper reporter
without an analytical or critical brain.
