Ridgeway 9325 -- This is Elaine Pringle -- What Tupper am I speaking to? Oh, Ella, hello! -- I hope you haven't finished your dinner -- We had a party arranged here and the last moment everybody's been dropping out -- the blizzard -- Can't you flock your family around the corner and eat with us? Mother and I thought we knew you well enough to call you like this at the seventh hour. You would? Oh! fine! Six more plates, Dunham. (In the telephone) What? -- Oh -- well -- but -- (She muffles the telephone) Dunham, get Mother quick. (In the telephone as DUNHAM hurries out of the room) Yes -- yes -- of course, love it -- why certainly -- yes, my dear -- all right. (She hangs up the receiver and puts her hand to her head in dismay) Great Caesar, now what have I done?
