Excerpt from A Toast to Tomorrow
The servant''s long wrinkled face assumed exactly the expression of a pained bloodhound, and he slid out of the room leaving the door ajar and admitting an icy draught. Now I''ve annoyed him, Franz always leaves the door Open when his feelings are hurt.
Franz came back with a tall jug, put it on the table and prepared to leave, but his master said, Just a moment, took two glasses from the cupboard, filled them both and handed him one.
Drink success to The'' Radio Operator, Franz, he said. This is a great moment, when one hears one''s first play being performed for the first time.
Franz'' s ugly face lit up. It must be, sir. Prosit! The Radio Operator.
They drank with. Appropriate solemnity, and Franz put his glass down.
