Last week at a dinner party, the hostess asked me to sit next to Mrs.Rumbold. Mrs.Rumbold was a large, unsmiling lady in a tight black dress.She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her. Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating. I tried to make conversation.'A new play is coming to "The Globe" soon,' I said.'Will be seeing it?''No,' she answered.'Will you be spending your holidays abroad this year?' I asked.'No,' she answered.'Will you be staying in England?' I asked.'No,'she answered.In despair, I asked her whether she was enjoying her dinner.'Young man,'she answered,'if you ate more and talked less, we would both enjoy our dinner!'
