THE REAL LOBSTER PALACE

versation is supposed to consist of a big
blue-eyed baby stare terminating with high
kick that sends somebody's silk hat kiting
toward the ceiling.
Although what George Ade has termed
waldorf finance (that is. the capitaliza-
ton of the gold-mine ideas that come with
the fourth highbalD unquestionably figures
to some extent in the table conversation of
the lobster palace | cannot but help be-
lieve from long experience, observation,
hearing, and participation that the talk one
hears in the lobster palace is much the
same as the talk one hears in the lobby of
hotel in, say, Dayton, Ohio, on the veranda
of summer hotel at Asbury Park, or in the
dining room of any hotel in any city above
thirty thousand anywhere IN the United
States. The only difference is that in the
lobster palace you hear more of it.
A T one table in the "lobster palace on any
night you may hear man and his wife
talk coolly and calmly of the price of food
or the lovely house they are planning to buy
for ten dollars down and ten dollars month
at Evergreen the Trolley-Line. At an
other, you may hear group of men discuss
ing the pitching record of A1athewson, the
fine shirts you can buy at So-andSo's this
week at half price, good cure for cold IN
the head, or the sorrowful fact that Ronald
BozenhauSers little son has the measles.
And at still another table where a somewhat
less conventional coterie of men and women
are enjoying good meal you may overhear
staccato and mixed chattering having to do
with what beautiful girl Mary Umhumhum
is, and how bad it is she's going to marry
that awful young Freddy Slouchsky, or what
a shame it is that Mrs. o-and-So is becoming
SO fat, and how bald her husband is getting
lately.
1t is not to be denied that stranger, en-
tering "lobSter palace for the first time in
his life, is duly impressed. He IS, however,
impressed not SO much with what he sees as
what he believes he sees He hears the band
playing lively tune, he observes crowd of
people eating and drinking, he is jostled by a
waiter in his flight, and he says to himself,
3Ah! here is life!'
Let him go back to his home light all the
lights, ask his daughter to play THAT Melo-
dious Rag loudly on the piano in the next
room, and sit down to a midnight supper
with his wife-and in reality he will be in in
trinsicallv the same atmosphere; that IS,
deep down at the bottom. What he sees in
the lobster palace generally speaking, IS
only the home scene multiplied by five hun
dred. There is more of the music, more of
the lights, more of a crowd, more color, more
food, more drink. more noise; but way
down deep it's all much the same. You
don't believe me- Then remember analo-
gously that three-ring circus is only one
ring circus multiplied by three, and that in
trinsically, one is just like the other; that a
lobster palace is to restaurant in, say,
Louisville, Kentucky, what New York is to
Louisville. 1t is the size that makes the diff
ference, the size and the crowd. A ball is
simply you and your best girl dancing
waltz multiplied by one hundred.
The crowd fools you. 1t takes you off your
