On Thursday I was at Panola-Harrison paying my electric bill during the Marshall Rotary Club meeting. Marshall Chamber of Commerce Past President Ray Lawson was making his presentation on the upcoming Chamber Banquet. A member of the audience asked a question concerning a statement on the Chamber's pricing schedule for the event. :
"Tickets are $35 per person, $400 for a business table of 10"
This sharp individual asked the question:
"If one can buy 10 individual tickets for $350 dollar, why would anyone want to purchase a table for $400?"
Mr. Lawson immediately responded, "If you buy a table you can sit with people you like."
