cant ones by the couple themselves. Those
people picked out their own table-shows
they're not all reserved
The Headwaiter looks down from his
eminence upon the couple thus addressing
him. Such look! 1t is a masterpiece OF
a look. Only a King whose ancestors
would have refused to humiliate them
selves by playing golf even with Solomon
could accomplish such a look. The dis.
rival about to be poisoned; the hauteur
with which Cleopatra gazed upon the
Prime Minister who dared suggest to her
that perhaps Mark was too much of a
luxury; the contempt with which the In
quisitors were wont to watch the Writings
OF the heretics - all these historic looks
combined could not evolve the look OF the
Headwaiter down upon this audacious
couple

waiter brushes them aside brusquely to

and khaki was mingled with business suits
naturally.
1t was the same in England, and France.
Everywhere the dinner jacket was pro-
NOTED to formality and the rule that a
woman deserved full dress was abrogated.
AS was said above, there are places in
New York, as in other Eastern cities,
where full dress at dinner seems to be a
voluntary impulse. But they are of the
elect, and few. They are places where the
Headwaiter still is a Duke, or a Prince,
or Baron, perhaps, but not yet King.
The revival Of the dress suit as proper
adjunct to might out" in New York is
one of the marks of new phase Of night
life, just reaching it's splendor born of
prohibition Dancing, losing somewhat
of it's social favor, still is the night life
cocktail-replacing the liquid cocktail Of
memory.
But the gay restaurants, the tea places"
and the night clubs, need more than dane
ing. They need an exhilaration. The
dress suit has supplied this. 1t is human
nature to want to go where it is difficult
to go--where every one else can't go. And

at his position where he can look over
the heads of the other grades waiting
patiently for admittance to the dining
room, seems to see them at once. First
graders, secure in the assurance of their
immaculateness and the imposing correct
ness of their feminine companions, have
only to give the King nod and the white
gloved bands of the headwaiting royalty
motion to the pages, the ropes drop, the
other graders stand aside in awe and the
favored pair, thus set apart as true lady
and gentleman, pass haughtily within the
roped off portals and choose the vacant
table that appeals most to their desires.
When he seats them the assistant King
removes the little card Reserved from
its nickel-silver stand.
OF course some of the second graders
and even on off nights the third graders
must be admitted. The King must see to
it that every table has been occupied at
now and then, the white gloved hands mo.

graders are ushered to tables far away
from the dance floor or the orchestra-if
there is no dance floor there is an orchestra
anyway--along the wall. Third graders

tables they get.
All Of which marks the renaissance Of
the dress suit. II was granted dispen-
sations during the war. Fifth avenue did
not require them in the days when there
we're more important things than dressing
for dinner in public places. In the homes,
of course, the evening garb was prevalent
as a matter of course-and habit. But the

maybe you'll be a lady and a gentleman
too and well unreserve table for you"
It's really very simple, the way the Head
waiter does it.
First, there is the cardinal rule Of his
kingdom. The gentleman dimes only, after
{ o'clock in such places, in full evening
clothes. And as he always has femi-
nine companion at these places, she too
will be in evening dress.
But there are many grades Of gentlemen.
First, second, third and so on. The King
grades them by their dress suits.
First grade, class A: Secret sign from
has checked top hat Of the current sea-
son. White gloves, kid, not undertakers'
cotton or Broadway silk. Wing collar with
white cravat One pearl in shirt front.
Pearl links. Companion with at least a
satisfactory supply of jewels, diamonds
preferable, since they shine more. Decol
lete. The King doesn't know the details
of what will complete the first gradeness
OF the gown, but does require that 1t look
swell"
Then, there is second grade which, II
there are several tables vacant and first
graders are not so numerous, may succeed
in getting under-or by, that is--the ropes.
Two pearls in the shirt front instead Of
one means second grade. Three means
tenth grade and impossible. Regular hat

~ IRCUS society has its smart set, its
social climbers, it's clubmen, its
submerged tenth, just like any
other human group, according to Publicity
Director Norwood of the Ringing Brothers
Barnum and Bailey Company.
There is caste system quite highly de-
veoped," he said. "The Fifth avenue set
of the circus is the equestrian group;
Riverside Drive, the aerials: the West
Seventies, the gymnasts and acrobats, and
Twenty-third street, the clowns The side
show freaks are, of cou Sc, in a class by
themselves and do not fraternize with the
rest. They have their separate car while
the show is on the road and during the
winter live in hotels for freaks"
Notwithstanding the fact that there are
castles, however, there is a great deal of the
pan-circus spirit in the company. An
equestrian Is always ready to aid an aero
bat with his act, first class aerial may be
seen helping with the apparatus OF gym
mast.
THE social life of the circus citizen isn't
as meager as outsiders suppose" stated Mr.
Norwood. There are large number OF clubs
Ia tennis club, which holds an annual
tournament; sewing circles for the women
and the clowns Puff Club (the title cele
brating that essential property of clowns
as well as women, the powder puH).

it is human nature, too, to go more freely
into the pockets of dress suit on spend
thrift impulse than into the pockets of
the business suit 1t seems to be prob
lem of psychology
The Headwaiter wants money spent at
each of his tables, and he knows that the
harder it is to reach these tables the more
clamor there will be for them. And he
knows the diner in dress suit will order
remain longer If for no other reason than
to get the worth out Of the evening clothes.

hopes that day will arrive before he is
drafted for the commonplace job Of being
President. Any sensible page would rather
be king than President-its so much less
democratic.
Beyond the ropes there are many, many
catch the glints from the amber lights.
In the kingdom of the headwaiters lights
always are amber. They got the idea from
the stage, which also is where so many
diners obtained the impression that every
dress suit must have a key chain.
Some Of these tables beyond the ropes
for quite a few more diners. But outside
the ropes the crowd of patiently waiting
couples increases The pages look them
over but do not see them. Pages are not
raised to see things before the king sees
them.
At the top of the steps, il there are
steps, stands the King-the august Head
waiter himself. Immaculate, naughty,
cynical amused-but keen. So keen that
he fails utterly to observe or hear the
couple that stands at his very toes-they
have waited an hour and have stood aside
countless times to allow other couples to
pass within the ropes-stood aside in awe
as the king unbent to greet these other
couples as IL they were OF rank almost
equal to his own. No real King could
bestow royal favor with more grace.
Il say what's the chances OF getting in
there now Old Top?" proposes the mascu-
line portion OF the couple standing close
to the Kings toes, as he notices with what
ease the Headwaiters first assistant pilots
