"One OF the results Of the late strike
of the hotel employees in Chicago"
said Mr.. A. NJ Rice Of that city. at the
Elks. has been the Organization OF
antttipping leagues. Men who have
had their epicurean pleasures rudely
interrupted because Of the walkout OF
the walters have got together and in
their heat Of indignation vowed that
henceforth no more change would be
left on the tray.
The movement is > natural one but
doubt how far il will be supported
even by those who are quickest to ad-
yocate lt. Custom is hard thing TO
reverse, and the tipping habit is so
thoroughly intrenched that It may be
styled a permanent institution.
Besides. when the present dificul-
ty blows over and the walters get back
their old time hauteur and superiority
TO the folks they serve. II will go hard
with that section Of the public that
dares TO withhold the usual subsidy.
