Right Ho, Jeeves
·
P. G. Wodehouse

“No,
sir,
but----”
“It
is
high
time,
in
my
opinion,
that
this
question
of
what
young
Gussie
really
is
was
threshed
out
and
cleared
up.
He
seems
to
think
he
is
a
male
newt,
and
you
now
appear
to
suggest
that
he
is
a
parrot.
The
truth
of
the
matter
being
that
he
is
just
a
plain,
ordinary
poop
and
needs
a
snootful
as
badly
as
ever
man
did.
So
no
more
discussion,
Jeeves.
My
mind
is
made
up.
There
is
only
one
way
of
handling
this
difficult
case,
and
that
is
the
way
I
have
outlined.”
“Very
good,
sir.”
“Right
ho,
Jeeves.
So
much
for
that,
then.
Now
here’s
something
else:
You
noticed
that
I
said
I
was
going
to
put
this
project
through
tomorrow,
and
no
doubt
you
wondered
why
I
said
tomorrow.
Why
did
I,
Jeeves?”
“Because
you
feel
that
if
it
were
done
when
’tis
done,
then
’twere
well
it
were
done
quickly,
sir?”
“Partly,
Jeeves,
but
not
altogether.
My
chief
reason
for
fixing
the
date
as
specified
is
that
tomorrow,
though
you
have
doubtless
forgotten,
is
the
day
of
the
distribution
of
prizes
at
Market
Snodsbury
Grammar
School,
at
which,
as
you
know,
Gussie
is
to
be
the
male
star
and
master
of
the
revels.
So
you
see
we
shall,
by
lacing
that
juice,
not
only
embolden
him
to
propose
to
Miss
Bassett,
but
also
put
him
so
into
shape
that
he
will
hold
that
Market
Snodsbury
audience
spellbound.”
“In
fact,
you
will
be
killing
two
birds
with
one
stone,
sir.”
