years ago, John* Drew shaved off his
moustache, thereby ’greatly chang
ing his appearance. Shortly after
wards he met Max Beerbolm in the
lobby of a London theatre, but
could not then just recall who the
latter was. Mr.' Beerbohm’s mem
ory was better. "Oh, Mr. Diew,”
he said, "I’m afraid you don’t know
me without your moustache.”
