A popular young actor is about to
come up before the board of governors
of conservative club on upper Fifth
avenue. He is the first of his profession
ever to seek admission there, and is.
moreover. the first with sufficient ac-
quaintanceS in the organization to think
of doing SO. 1t is difficult to say just
now who is more nervous over the i'm
pending electiOn-the youthful actor or
his friends in the club who persuaded
him to allow them to put mp his name.
Under ordinary circumstances there
could lie no question as to the outcome
of his application, as he fills every re-
quirement of eligibility. But his profess
SION is not yet represented in the club.
and the propriety of making such an in
nOyation is puzzling the committee on
admissions.
In cosmopolitan New York almost cv-
cry style and variety of restaurant cook
ing-French. English, German, Hunga-
rian, Italian, Russian. Spanish. Bone
mian.negro and New England-is known
Besides, there are the Chinese restau-
rants. But there is no restaurant in New
York devoted to or making any special
feature of Polish cooking. though for
centuries the Poles have had their dis
tinctive styles of cooking, and reStau-
rants perpetuating it are known i'll some
other cities of the United States. In the
days of Polish affluence and prosperity
the feasts prepared for Polish mobiles,
either on their estates at home or when
abroad, were well known, and into the
menu certain distinctive articles entered
largely. of which some few are recalled
by gourmets.
The Cnuui of safety and the despair Of
want go hand in hand in New York.
