full back, Johnny Seel is expected to
play right half back and Booz will

An American Cafe.

From the Chicago Post.
THE name is everywhere. unused one

turned from Europe to Chicago. land the
reality nowhere" He was referring to
the cafe. Like nearly everybody else who
has been In Europe. he had been charmed
with the habit Of sitting at table on the
sidewalk while he slipped his drink and
watched the people pass. 1t seemed so
much more human and social than to re-
tire behind shutters and into cubbyholes.
The cafe makes drinking diversion, the
young man reflected. while the saloon
makes 1t vice.
1t is perhaps true that the attitude OF
the American people toward the drinking
of alcoholic liquors will make II impossi-
BILE to bring American drinking out Of
doors. But we have a particularly innoc-
uous field OF drinking-namely. that Of
ice cream sodas into which 1t seems that
the cafe principle might be introduced
1t would have an even wider appeal could
it be extended to take in those who like
the gentle rite of afternoon tea-or coffee
or chocolate. All of which are Partisan.
The cafe principle is that the passing
crowd is more interesting to look at than
marble and nickel fixtures" 1t is
principle SO attractive. SO convincing. SO
human. that it would not be surprising
