William Lyon Phelps, professor of English literature at Yale. declares he gets credit for only p per cent of the after dinner speeches he actually makes.
 Every time I accept an invitation to speak I really make four addresses, - he says First is the speech I prepare in advance That is pretty good. Second is the speech I really make. Third is the speech I make on the way home, which is the best of all, and fourth is the speech the newspaper next morning say I made, which. bears no relation to any of the others. - Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph.
