cry day in the year. His advantage is
partly due Co the efforts of a well known
lunchhouse promoter who has scattered
his open all night places in every big
city clear across the country, making
the pancake a staple in every one of
them. So industriously has he spread
the evangel of the pancake that go to
the business heart of any American city
from coast to coast, and you will hear
rise above the hoarse hum of traffic, just
at the MONDAY lunch hour, that appe-
tizing slogan:
Brown the buckwheats
In these establishments, variously
and irreverently called pie foundries''
and ''hash factories, - tons of pancakes
are cooked during the year. As an evil
dence of good faith that they are real
pancakes they are prepared in the broad
publicity of the front show window by
a white aproned, white capped cook,
who substitutes for the familiar grid
die a gas heated, steel table on which as
many as two dozen cakes can brown at
once. He is a picturesque figure as he
stands there, batter pitcher in hand, un
moved and unrufhed, while a score of
shrill voiced waiter girls Shrek with
hysterical JUNCTION such commands as:
Brown the bucksp' 1.-TWO to comeF'
''Three off the griddlep' MAKE 'em
twinsP' Draw two in the darkl''
"Pork and l'' Put on oneI"
But every country bred man knows
that the article turned out amid such
environments is not the true pancake,
not the buckwheat cake that mother
used to make. cannot describe just
how the genuine pancake should taste
or exactly how it should be served, for
no two pancake artists produce the same
kind of cake. Even the name is muta-
BILE. In some sections it is the flapjack,
in others the griddle cake, while pan
cake and buckwheat cake are its most
common designations.
How do you eat your pancakes? Do
you fancy butter and sugar, or does
your taste run in the direction of a
miniature flood of either sirup or mo-
lasses? Some courageous people who
defy dyspepsia take their pancakes in
a plate swimming with pork gravy,
with crisp sausage or two in cheerful
contiguity. Some finiclzy people eat
them with jelly or preserves, as the
French do their alleged pancakes, which
are not pancakes at all.
The cooking of the buckwheat is an
art in which most American women
and some men are past masters. When
the boys of 1861 went to the war, they
yearned for hapjacks- Most of them
knew little about cooking, but it was
cook or go hungry, and so they had tc
learn. Scattered through the country
today you will find many an old veteran
who can take frying pan, cover the
bottom with batter and, when it haf
reached Just the right point, give it g
dexterous Jerk which viii send the cake
