At Hotel and Restaurant

OF all the news which we received
this week regarding the hotels. restau-
rants and cabarets. none so greatly
intrigued our fancy, as every one is
saying now, as this bi. from the Com
modore:
For the committee who would dance
after the theatre the Commodore Grill
is safety zone. It is even nearer 70
the tracks than the Grand Central Sta
ton, and at its doors there is an in
cline to the lower level, where the
local trains depart" Easy to sprint
over) Fear Of missing the train, how
ever, has often curtailed a dance. so
George ". Sweeney has under con-
sideration a suggestion that train
announcer be installed at the door Of
the grill room. The man who made
the suggestion lives In Pelham, and
he missed his train tho other night
because Natzy's Orchestra happened to
playing an irresistible fox tro. as the
1890 local pulled out.
We humbly suggest some formula
like the following for the announcer:
Come, all ye jazzers who love to
step and shake your little foot. shake
your little foot, for this is the last
chance Tat arv Of you'll get, the train
am a-leaving for Stamford. Yea. DO,
a dreamy waltz, Who'll come to Mount
Kisco? The 1910 local Ia leaving in
five minutes more; in FIVE minutes
more. Come, climb aboard with me-
Also the orchestra must pledge itself
to respect no encores three minutes be-
fore train time.

Club and the Montmartre and go up to
the Circle and visit Sophie in her
paradise. We did Miss Tucker or
somebody cruel injustice. The night
that she opened her room in Reisen-
weber's we were there and had per-
fectly grand party. and then we went
away and wrote that we had been en-
tertained by Sophie Tucker and her
six kings Of syncopation." And the
kings wrote a pathetic letter saying.
Dear Miss Cnderhill, we are seven"
SO now we shall trail to make amends
there are seven kings. though four
Is as many as we ever saw before
Can't think how we came to make the
mistake. particularly as gone are the
days. when six kings might look like
twelve along toward the end OF the
evening.
