Lasker:

At Christmastime. In fact, there were about fifteen people more than could hold. I don't know whether it's amusing to have the guest list of that or not, but it shows who my friends are.

Q:

Yes, I think that would be useful to have.

Lasker:

It's sort of fun -- sometimes because it shows what people do in an era.

(pause in recording)

Last summer, Mary Lawrence loaned her beautiful house, to us for five days. Deeda Blair and I went to Venice and met Mr. William Blair.

SIDE 2

Q:

You were talking about the trip last summer to Europe.

Lasker:

I was in France, in the south of France. Mary Lawrence loaned us her house and her servants, and we had a marvelous five days.

Q:

That's right on the Mediterranean, isn't it?

Lasker:

Oh, it's marvelously beautiful. I have pictures of it. I'll show them to you. Did I ever show you pictures of it?
