They bring no liquCr with them, nor is it served to them there, yet the phenomenon persists.
 Here's how it is: After an all-night party it's considered the smart thing to do to drop in at this shop for break fast just before sunrise. No matter if the brave men and fair women have been disporting themselves in alec holic aquariums downtown the partys flop if it doesn't begin to taper off over the bacon and eggs in this es tablshment.
 So a. m. finds the merry-makers speech-making, wearing tissue caps, singing and passing back and forth song and quip, with not a drop in sight.
 l It's an all-night place and strange ly, male walters do net succeed the waitresses at late hour, as is the case in most places employing women for that purpose in daylight hours However, the management has it's prettiest girls on duty in the after noon and early evening, but after the midnight hours waitresses whom rounders call lady blacksmiths be- cause of their proportions and hostile demeanor hand out black Java for shaky heads. They permit no one to get fresh
 The younger element of Chicago has introduced other innovations. Just now it's favorite dance rendezvous is in a place called "The Stables" sit uated on the Chicago Rivers banks and sandwiched in between factories, ! tenements and warehouses. It just reeks with atmosphere.

 This city is so dance-made that ] money once invested in theaters now is put into bathrooms all over the town. North Side and South Side alike have many of these places. Each tries to outdo the other in furnishings, luxuries and entertainment. There are only few downtown and in the near-downtown. Most of them draw their patronage from surrounding neighborhood sections. Their popu- larity is so great that lamentations from downtown theatrical producers fill pages in national weeklies devoted to the show business. It is notable
