As the result of pondering with his brain and manipulating with his pen, he succeeded in evolving a draft of a programme as mixed and varied as might be expected from the all-star company gathered together at short notice for a benefit or testimonial for some popular unfortunate player with several loopholes for such changes, alterations, additions, subtractions, multiplications, and divisions as might suggest themselves or be forced upon him later on.

"We'll go in and meet the others your fellow stars for this is an all-star aggregation." Over the broad entrance to the cabin was a chintz curtain strung upon a wire. Burlingham drew this aside.
