But the spirit of Max roamed far
and wide. Never have l seen so
OmniyOrous a reader of the news.
Not one, but three papers a day,
not to mention occasioal Extras.
He read them all. And his
boundless, unfailing delight was
to hear what money can give, the
marvellous ways in which these
Americans spend money.
'Dey don't care vot dey
spend!' This sentence l have
heard him utter over and over,
with all kinds of changing in
Elections; now softly chuckling,
bending far over the paper
spread out on his white aproned
knees; now musingly, between
pntfs on his cigarette; now ex-
plosiyely, pounding the table
with his fist; and again YEARLY
leaning back, his round sides
aching from laughter.
The bakery walls we're a
gallery of extravaganza, with
glaring prints from the Sunday
editions; on one wall steamed a
great ocean liner equipped with
cafe and palm garden; the
Twentieth Century train rushed
by on the opposite side; and
beneath, a two-million,G ollar
hotel, a charity ball and a New
port fete c%hampetre; while on
the third wall, superb climax to
the whole panorama-the great
Waldorf kitchen at the dinner
hour. 1t was here that his son
Herman was already a rising
young chef, a specialist, a soup
%virtuoso. 1t was from this son
and his alee e famous dinners
and suppers that Max took his
ideas of America.
'Dey don't care vot dey
spend!' 1t was amazing the
ecstacy of delight and pride
which he threw into this com
ment, recounting how other
people eat dinners"
