The Broadway Crowd.

Simeon Strunsky, in the Atlantic
The crowd on lower Broadway is
alert and well set up. Yes, though one
hates to do it. 1 must say clean cut"
The men on the sidewalk are young,
timber, sh~arp-faced, almost insolent
young men. There are not very man
old men in the crowd, though I see any
number of gray-haired young men.
Seldom do you detect the traditional
signs of age, the sagging lines of the
face, the relaxed abdominal contour,
the tanned spirit. The young, the
yound-old. the old-young. but rare
ly quite the old. I am speaking
only of e~Nternals. Cleancut, eager
faces are very frequently disap-
pointing. A very ordinary mind
sweep of brow and nose and chin. I
have known the shock of young men
h look like kings of Wall street and
speak like shoe clerks. They are shoe
clerks. But the appearance is there,
that athletic carriage which is helped
out by u triumphant, ready made
clothing. / suppose 1 ought to detest
the tatlor's tricks. which iron out all
age and all stations into a uniformity
OF padded shoulders and trim waist
lines and hips. 1 imagine 1 ought to
despise our habit of wearing elegant
shoddy where the European chooses
honest clumsy woolens. But / am
concerned only with eXternals, and in,
outward appearances a Broadway
crowd beats the world.
