But the people of Dryden are eviden- tly more than willing to entrust the conduct of their municipal affairs to a man for whom Dame Fortune has shown such kindly partiality. No man in the district is more discussed or more criticised. His intense personality often incurs the accusation of irrepressible egotism.

Somebody telephones Peter--perhaps the mayor of a rising western city. The talk is about some slip-up on a meeting. Peter says "You're a liar." Then 'he listens, and in a minute $ays, "Excuse me, Gerry, it's myself that's the liar." And beth ends of the wire are content.
