SCATTERING Another Legend.

We now know that William Tell did not
shoot the apple from his sons head; that
Washington did not throw a silver dol
lar across the Potomac; that DR.. Cook
did not discover the north pole; that
the dying words of few famous men
are correctly handed down TO history.
But, alas, another of our tender beliefs
has been ruthlessly torn asunder by the
iconoclasts. We are now informed that
the giants Of Olden days were not larger
than the side show giants" Of to-day.
Alas and alack, That the time should
ever come when kindergartens think it a
crime 10 teach the babies that there is a
Santa Claus! We need Santa 70 arouse
the imagination; we need the giant TO
give meaning 10 The words terrible" and
"feroci0u5."
Now comes the anthropoIogist to assure
us that we are as large and as handsome
as any previous race since history began.
That is f1attering. but IL leaves a sting.
We often compIacently looked about and
prlded ourselves on being pygmies. phys
ically. compared with our forbears, but
giants intellectually. About this time
along comes a savant and tells US that
we are not one whit better poets than
Homer and Virgil, and that the Greek
philosophers had the science Of inductive
and deductive reasoning developed as far
as the moderns have. We know that
art has made no progress since then.
Our ancestors Of the stone age were
no larger than ourselves, but they had
TO battle with animals larger than any
now in the jungles Of Africa This again
is a cause for chagrin. We have not
progressed. but our enemies have de-
Perforated. And so #. goes. Unless sci
entists and historians can arrive at con-
illusions more pleasing 10 our vanity.
they should be boycotted. Why this ef-
fort at realism, when it is not realism and
truth that we want?

The Disappearing Buckwheat Cake.

A melancholy observer of events and
things has marked the passing of the

The New District Board.

Their nominations having been duly con-
frmed by the Senate. Mr.. Cuno H. Ru-

prepared to qualify and enter upon their
work as Commissioners Of the District of
Columbia. The community's best wishes
are assured as they take up official duties
and assume the responsibilities and bur-
dens necessarily attached to the positions.
Membership on the Board which exc
cutes the will OF Congress as 20 the gov

high honor, has acquired additional pres

We have raised our voice high in pro-
test against the un-American system of
tips; We have tried TO show that hard
boiled eggs do not run all over the plate
and soil napkins: we have often ex-
patIated on the fact that a weIl-done steak
should not be served rare and have on
divers other subjects shown walters the
error Of their ways
Our ACCOMPLISHMENTS may have been
fraught with only modicum Of success.
Notwithstanding this, our duty lies before
us. and again We enter into the fray. This
time we are not sinsle-hauded for We
have the good right arm OF F. p. y, Of
the New York Nail. 10 support us.
We are inalienabIy a free people. except
when We are in a restaurant Then there
IS one like unto Speaker Cannon at our
elbow. We do not object to the waiter
forcing US TO take a chair which faces
the rear of the room rather than the
entrance. we do not protest when he
swishes a napkin in our face. or forgets
10 fill our glass with water All this we
have endured from time immemoriaI. and
we no longer utter a protest. But we do
want to declare our most earnest protesta-
ton against the waiter seizing the bill of
fare after it has been in our possession
for less than two and a half minutes and
carrying it of TO some other table.
Is it that the proprietors fail to have
enough menu cards printed? Is it possible
that the walter fears we win find some
dainty listed which is meant only to make
the bill look impressive? Is it done n
show US that we are parvenus. and have
not the science of ordering a dinner well
mastered? BE it what it may, there is
a just criticism which will remain a burn
ing question until It is settled right We
do not like TO provoke discussion but
having buckied on the armor. we stand
ready TO die for the martyrs cause We
do not hastily defy the Walters Union
or fly in the face of the Hotel Managers
Association, yet we seek enlightenment

mand for bin of fare that will remain

something. to amuse ourselves. Conversa-
ton IS all right, but il can be carried on
more readily If We can have something
TO twirl in our fingers. What IS more an
propr!ate than the bin OF fare? Again we
say, let US declare our emancipation from
the slavery Of obsequiousness to the Iordlv
waiter
