Psychology is the dominant keynote
in the organization of the gambling
rooms of the modern casion. No
possible FACTOR which can aid the
.'house" at the expense Of the play
ers Is overlooked, and the various
ca sino directors in Monte Carlo,
belgium, Italy. Switzerland, and
France continually compare notes
and trade new ideas on ways and
means to increase playing and in
cidentally to increase profits.
First and foremost 1t was discov-
cred a score OF years ago at Monte
Carlo that the gaming rooms must
be kept red-hot. The player DE-
comes flushed and uncertain in the
heat, all his blood mounts to his
,.ead. and he loses the elearness ana
quickness of thinking, the rapidity
OF sizing up a situation. and QUICK
ness of Judgment as to what his ac-
tion should be, in the close, vitiated
atmosphere. Directors of summer
casinos did not believe they would
oe able to follow the tip learned by
the winter resort, but they have
done SO. and windows in casinos are
kept tightly shut in July and Au-
Nyust, as they are on the Riviera in
January and February.
Everybody Smokes.
i Every one-men and women alke
smokes continually and furioHsly
while in the gaming rooms. And,
Incidentally, don't ever think that
there would be a match safe in any
casino in all Europe. Plenty OF ash
trays, and all sorts Of high priced
cigarettes for sale. but not match
ar a box of matches obtainable.. Be
cause without matches one must ask
.i.e attendants for lights, and every
time an attendant produces a little
| re he must have a tip.
The floors of the casinos are COW
