 Perhaps some of the staid old hotel men would be glad to see change along Broadway. They would hardly welcome prohibition just yet, but they would like, as some of them express it, ''to get back into the real hotel business" At present. they claim, they are not hotels--they are theatres, dance halls and amusement centers They must pay big sums for profess sional talent to entertain their guests and must also donate great space for dancing purposes. And to think that the hotel of other days was merely d place to sleep and eat makes some of the old-timers eager for change from present-day methods-and expense.
 Certainly no man in his sober senses would spend such sums as certain in dividuals claim to spend almost night ly on Broadway as a direct result of having their purse strings and heart strings tugged at strongly by the mocker and that which Is raging. But it Is useless to mention some figures I have heard of on good authority. Here in New York one gets all mixed up on figures. anyhow. and if one is not careful he gets the idea that he fas as much right as many Of these millionaires and multimillionaires to le. go what he may have garnered, accum- sulated and salted away.

But whethur he would have rellished the kiss under diffurent circumstances or not is be- side the issue--it is irrellevent and inmate riel, and should positively have no wait with the jury.

Now and then one hears something funny even at a cabaret show. The other evening a party of actors was enjoying food, drink and the cabaret at the Marl- borough -B1enheim, at Herald Square and Broadway. It seems that one of the party had steadily busied himself with something else as the checks for repeated imbibations were presented The others soon "got wise" and forced his atten- ton to the next check presented. An drew Mack, comedian, was the man who did so. The other actor paid and. ap- parently much hurt. immediately excused hims elf and walked out Just as he opened the door an automobile tire ex- ploded and Mack. turning to the rest of the party. said solemnly: Good Lord, he has shot hfmself!"
 The wilful ignorance of some New York CTS is astonishing. There are some of them who pass for averagely intelligent people who would be surprised beyond belief if you should tell them that there are some towns with electric lights south of the Mason and Dixon line
 On the other hand. don't get the idea that the average New Yorker knows his own city. There are many people who came here from elsewhere and learned more about New York if year than mary know who have lived here the greater part of an average lifetime. That might apply to people in the south as well however. I was 10 years in Nash villo before visited the Hermitage. and the New Yorker feels that the sights are here for him and will wait until he is good and ready to look them over.I

 on that great thoroughfare haps-something like that is going to come to pass-yea, even in the heart of Manhattan, the gayest of the gay, the naughtiest of the naughty and the most merciless of them all
 This is not an argument for or against prohibition but merely the statement of what the writer feels is a probability of the future, made for the purpose of deducing therefrom some of the results to Broadway. What effect would Alba Via feel? Why, rone-Broadway has no feeling; it would merely show results.
 Today the life of that thoroughfare centers around it's restaurants, big hC- tels and lobster palaces. Only this W eek note the, opening at Broadway and Forty eighth street of another lobster palace, which is to be known as "The Million Dollar Cafe" What about the theatres. you ask? True. they are to be counted into the gen. eral glitter, but the managers are of- fering many special Inducements to- Gay to get the people to enter them. Why spend an entire evening at a theatre when the lobster palace across the way. is offering about 28 big acts of various kinds? and in addition to gazing at the immense cabaret one may eat and drink, to say nothing of the joys of the dance to be had at all such places. ls.siT -

York has ever known. Where now the bright lights glitter there would be dark ness. But in many home where the golden light of morning strikes vainly against drawn curtains, there would be bright eyes to give back the suns bright welcome, and light hearts where now there are heavy hearts and eyes as well. How easy to get the preaching habit. But one sees so much here that can no longer appeal to sanity and, perhaps, mid de age. However, even those who know Broadway best are in their hearts aware of it's falsity and its dependence upon stimulant. There is George M. Cohan, for inslance, who Is known as "the press agent for Broadway and who has written net few plays around 1t. Yet he appears in print today stating. in sort of auto biogrs phical sketch that he aspires to write a story one day that will not deal w'ih the people who toddle along broad way"

Our future rites to protectsion is to be jepperdised by the cunning counsel for the defense who will adroitly introduse, the yung persun at the sycologgical momint to the jury and will ask them as man to man, if enny sane persun in his normal mind would raise holler if this yung lady weer to kiss him on the spur of the momint, also on the cheek. He will ask each one of them individually 2 and not for pubicasion if they air so lost to all admirasion for the artistick and the luvly, that they would not be willing to bor- row mummy rum persunnel frend to pay for blow out in sellebrasion of such con sumasion-and then he will try to turn the withuring finger of skorn and one thing and anuther on the man who actuelly wants to be reimbursed for such an experience
 No one can tell what petty jury will do but I am apprehensive. Much is at stake. If in moment of weakness the jury desides not to rebule the offendurs in this case, and thereby gives license to reck- less feemail persuns to roam at large kiss ing evvery good looking man they see, what is to becum of usg The importance of the mattur cannot be exaggurated.

 The foregoing simply had to come There was never rhymester who had not a rhyme to offer when spring came upon him. It is a sort of poets license-at least it is verse writer's excuse. And after all, hiding behind rhymes, one may now and then put bit more of feeling into his work. or feel bit more deeply himself, than he might care to confess in colder prose.
 It is, while l am confessing, an unde- niable fact that, at no season does the call from sunland come more strongly. Spring and New York were surely never made for each other. It is only in the open places. in the parks or where the ocean is visible. that some of us who still know spring at her best. can feel that we are able to draw deep and thorough ly satisfying breath. But you. for whom write. know all about that. while some of you are not supposed to know all about Broadway, and-oh. well. let's get back to it. suppose it has some interest for you. but there 8 a whole lot in that old thing about distance lending enchant- ment.

He was kissed against his will under protest, and aftur unnannimus consent had been denied, sum where in that theeatre, and little above and to the rite of his left eer This is sir cumstance, which may frequintly happen, and no doubt does frequintly happen, but not under the peeculier circumstances which surround this case The usuel pro- ceedure adopted in our best sircles for kiss ing a yung lady of the stage is, to do so without an audiense It is a matter which can be dun more effectively and artistical- ly in private No one wants the Nasionel Board of Censorship sticking round making rude comments when he IS engaged upon delicate task of this nature. Moreover, if is perticulerly desirabull when duty of this kind must de attended, to and when II demands the persunnel attension of a gentulman, not to have his wife in the i'm mediate vlclnnity, and also 1t is best-in the long run-to keep the matter frum hur.
