CHARLIE. That's good.
CLAV. Yes. What I came to show you was this. (Taking paper from an envelope from his inside pocket.) It's simply gorgeous.
CHARLIE. What is it?
CLAV. Well, I've a friend on the London Morning News, and I got Mitchell to see he had a copy of the book.
CHARLIE. Yes?
CLAV. (handing him the proof). He sent me a proof of his review by this morning's post. That's it. He's done us well.
CHARLIE. By Jove. That's luck.
CLAV. Yes. It's a storming notice.
CHARLIE. Things are going to move a bit now the book's coming out. It'll waken people up to a realization of the kind of thing that's done in the name of profit.
CLAV. (impatiently). Yes. I haven't time to stay now. I must get on with my round.
