i London must have heard about the
Topeka newspaper man who started
Il crusade against men walters. The
smart thing at an entertainment in
London nowadays when a caterer
provides the tea or supper served is
to have mattresses instead of walters.
Even at large dinners the caterers
find that many persons prefer to have
! mattresses.
Questioned as to the reason of the
fashion, caterer attributed it to the
dainty appearance of the mattresses
in their black frocks and white caps
and aprons. and to the fact that they
gave the entertainment a homelike
air that hostesses like. He said:
Perhaps the simple life craze has
had something to do with the eleva-
ton of the waitress to her high pin
nacle of repute. Certainly she looks
less ostentatious in a house than the
average waiter does"
