Everyone was very uncomfortable, looking stolidly on the ground or staring straight in front of them. At last Easton broke the silence by suggesting that it would not be a bad plan if someone was to make a motion that a Beano be held.
"I'm always coming to have a look round at your wonderful flower-bed," said Richard, "and some Sunday morning, during church hours, I will do so; but you know how busy we all are in August. And I don't want no flowers; but I want the run of your four-stall stable. There's a 'beano' coming over from Lyme and I'm full up already." "Never no need to ask," she answered.
"Our people are all very pleased. They're going to have a kind of beano over the supper. You'll come along, Mr. Bloxford; they'll want you." "All right," said Mr. Bloxford. "But it seems to me that you're the popular man of this crowd. Oh, I don't walk about in my sleep, young man. I can see as far as a blind horse.
And he got quite a different set of clothes out of his bundles, and put them on. And that was the greatest fun of all. "Now, then," he said, "we're a-goin' to lay low 'ere all d'y, we are. And then come evening we're a-goin' to 'ave our beano.
Stephen, a further reason for holiday-making. Talking of holidays in Prague, I came across one such fixed for August 9th, and seriously described by a sound old writer on the manners and customs of Bohemia. This feast was observed, I cannot say religiously, but with great enthusiasm, by the students of the University. It was called quite simply Beano.
"Or your gentleman 'ere might." "But I didn't. Send for the Police at once." "I wouldn't do that, lydy. They're only fruit pickers on a beano. They aren't particular where they sleep." "D'you mean they've been sleeping there? I only had it cleaned last week. Get them out." "Oh, if you say so, we'll 'ave 'em out of it in two twos. Alf, fetch me the spare swingle-bar." "Don't!
The man scratched his head and hesitated. Then he looked up at the sky and then down at the road they were resting on a heap of stones. At last he said, "You're a sharp lad, you are bloomin' sharp. Well, I won't deceive you, matey. I want company. Tramping alone ain't no beano to me.
There is a rather impressive beano in progress in the dining-room, and they are waiting for supplies." Endorsement was given to this statement by a sudden shout from the apartment named. I recognized as who would not Aunt Dahlia's voice: "Glossop!" "Hullo?" "Hurry up with that stuff." "Coming, coming." "Well, come, then. Yoicks! Hard for-rard!" "Tallyho, not to mention tantivy.
At the close of the speech he muttered to Hozier: "Wish I'd ha' known wot sort of beano I was comin' to. Dam if I ain't meltin'." This ordeal ended, déjeuner was served. The President took in Iris and the Dona Pondillo. They were the only ladies present. The three sailors, some staff officers, and a few local celebrities, made up the rest of the company.
We'll have a regular beano. We both need it." In the seclusion of her room that night Esther took out her best new evening gown, bought in Paris, and examined it with satisfaction. She had worn it only once; it had been a present from Miss Ferriss. Layers of filmy chiffon, peach-coloured, it presented a delectable picture as she spread it out on the bed.
