If anybody needs to be convinced that New Workers are nervous lot just let him peep under dining room tables at meaItime and see the posi- ton of the feet and he will have all the proof he wants" remarked the pro prietor of a popular restaurant. Not one person in a hundred sits with his feet planted squarely on the floor while eating. Some twist their feet around the legs of tables and chairs some sit with them crossed. others rest the feet on the tips of the toes. while still others bear their whole weight down on the heel. Since it is only the hatly planted foot that indicates an equable temperament. it is easy to see what nervous. Irresponsible crowd the army of diners out really is."- New York Post
