There has been a great deal written
in the eastern papers lately about the
phi1anthrOpic bee that is buzzing in
the bonnet of Miss Ann Morgan. the
daughter Of ]. Pierpont Morgan. She
has opened a tea room, with a dance
hall in connection with it, where the
working girls of New York can eat
and dance. The luncheon is operated
on the cafeteria plan.
A Topeka girl, Miss Dorothy Mon
roe. is studying cookery and kindred
sciences in Columbia university this
winter. So from the students desire
to see how the much heralded tea
room was managed, she made visit
to the lunch room, while the charac-
teristic quirk in her disposition that
a situation, is responsible for the fol-
lowing lines that she has written to
home friend about it:
II went to luncheon today at the
new tea room which is the institution
managed by Ann Morgan. (She is the
manager, not the cook, you under
stand.) Considering who is at the
head Of the enterprise, all the social
climbers are rushing down there for a
meal. They do not know at all, to
be sure. and cannot guess. how to be-
have at a cafeteria, and they think it
is so funny to have to get a tray,
doncher knOw-cannct get used to the
idea Of not having the meal served in
courses. 1t is all SO quaint and inter-
esting to see how the poor girls really
do eat, how the other half actually
lives, you know. So they have to have
the director stand by and tell them
just how to take up a tray and put the
silver on it. and they must be shown
how one gets the tray to a table with
the food on it. Our merriment over
their pretended ignorance might have
been heard by them if the music had
not been SO loud. 1t is SO sweet of
Ann, they think, to do something for
the unfortunate working girls. that
our set. you know. ought to help it
with our patronage"
