8/18 I believe I mentioned one or two such. The Bryan appetite, as I remarked to the doctor, is one of the chief landmarks of Mr.Bryan's home city of Lincoln, Nebraska. They take the sight-seeing tourists around to have a look at it, the first thing. A double order of cantaloupes on the half shell, a derby hat full of oatmeal, a rosary of sausages, and about as many flapjacks as would be required to tessellate the floor of a fair-sized reception hall is nothing at all for him. And when he has concluded his meal he gets briskly up and strolls around to the convention hall and makes a better speech and a longer one and a louder pile than anybody. |
