HOTEL NOTES.
Hotel Walters Of the Northwest are
Being CIassed as the Best.

Hotel Walters of the Northwest are
Being cIassed as the Best.
The walters of the Twin Cities are
doing more good for the rest of the
craft, than they are credited with,
and are willing to let the outer world
know that they are class of men,
who demand good treatment and get
it. Their managers and superior Of
ficers are men, who seem to value
good servants and good service.
The majority of our walters are not
the past masters, or globe trotters,
who have served everywhere, every
thing and everybody, but are the real
walters of today, those who please
the guests" This is the secret of
service. Give the man who buys what
he wants. The Twin Cities today get
some of all of the people of the world.
and our walters here are to a stand
ard which meets the demands of the
travelling public. We admit that most
of them are not equipped for the high
class service that is the standard of
some of our Eastern cities, but they
know its fundamental principles.
Among these are men who own their
homes and have respectable families
in fair circumstances.
The best waiter of today, is the
most intelligent. His diplomacy is his
most valuable asset. He Is the sales
man of the food department, whether
in dining car, club, cafe or hotel. His
service either commends or condemns.
The public will not stand for anw de-
ception. They are reasonable. They
do not wish "UncIe Remus" stories
or "dining room vaudeville" Yet
there are a few of the guests whose
familiarity becomes contemplate.
But If waiter will stay waiter, and
not an information bureau, he will al
ways be in a position to secure work
which will afford the most comfort
able living today. Be what you seem
to be!
