I knew there was something here Jim wanted me to see. He donated $250,000 to the museum last year. He said they’d bought some old animal with it.
Mrs. Van Dyke
I can’t say I admire his taste. I thought he went in for horses.
Mrs. Morrow
Of course, it’s Jim’s own money; but it does seem a bit extravagant to turn all that money into old bones.
Mrs. Van Dyke
Yes; when he might buy so many nicer things you could wear.
Mrs. Morrow
Jim’s been awfully generous to me; though, of course, now that the war’s over we’ve got to hold in a bit. He hasn’t any more army contracts, you know. (Sighing) It certainly was wonderful while it lasted.
