Walter gets more than that Not quite
enough to get married on, and not quite
little enough to starve on. He buys
good clothes, knows the latest popular
songs, sings them far from badly and
likes dancing. He gets half an hour for
lunch.
He is far from stupid. One day a
kindly old gentleman, passing in front
of the building at noontime, where Wal
ter and several others were chewing
toothpicks, inquired benignly, looking
the place over, How many people work
in this place, young man." To which
Walter promptly replied, "Oh, about
half He is New Yorker, no doubt
about that whatever.
His girl, however, lives in Bayonne.
SO when he goes to a dance he takes his
evening clothes down to business and
dresses there. (They have a dressing
room for employees. You won't find
that in small towns) On these occa-
sions, when he has seen Alice home. he

that she found herself on it one time

at the mattcrof-fact way in which the

Those Magic
Words

felt horribly guilty when first got
here and noticed the awe and respect
inspired when told people l was "from
New York. They wrote me up in their
local paper and the magic words ''New
York played a prominent part in the
article. 1t seemed so absurd, when I
considered that several million people,
including the bootblack, the newsboy
who handed me my evening paper as !
passed up Maiden Lane on my way
home every night, and countless other
odds and ends of humanity who do not
figure in the social register could have
claimed the same glorious privilege.
For of course I don't figure in the social
register either.
Which brings me right down to the
point. Being from New York"
might tlst as we'll be from nowhere at

and acquaintances behind me. 7 have

A Yorkvilian may feel that he is at

any inhabitant Of Second Avenue to

he and his ancestors for generations be
born and bred on Second Avenue, in
the wonder city Of New York.
Why not be frank about it? Stop
