"I congratulate you warmly, Mr. Gerald. Doubtless you purpose to celebrate the occasion in the appro- priate manner."
"I do, Hawkins, and in a big way. Turn out the cellar while I go to the phone and beat up a few of the lads. Let there be enough festivity to float a battleship.* "Very good, Mr. Gerald,”
