In the Brill building, an old man
is employed as janitor. Never
theless, he is one of the towns
busiest music critics. He is a close
friend of the composers and arrang-
ers of Ray Blocks staff and when
new song or an arrangement is
completed, it is rushed to him. If,
after looking it over carefully, he
declares it will click, it does and if
he says it won't, it doesn't. At least
that is the report. But the funny
part Of the whole thing is that the
old man can't read a note Of music.

r. AROUND
wv THE HOUSE

Fresh Orange Juice.-It is best
to squeeze the orange juice just
before breakfast rather than the
night before so that the air won't
have a chance to attack the vita
min in the juice and also change
the flavor.
Tasty Baked Potatoes. - After
baked potatoes are "done," gently
crush the potato open and then
return it to the oven to dry out for
a few minutes.
Cleaning Parchment Shades
Wipe off parchment lamp shades
with a cloth dampened with olive
oil. 1t will remove all soil and will
restore the former freshness.
Delicious Meat Loaf.-Try plac-
ing two-inch layer of meat loaf
mixture in shallow pan. Add a
thin layer Of sliced, hard-cooked
eggs, chilli sauce and minced cell
cry. Cover with the rest Of the
meat mixture, bake in the usual
way, then unmold and slice.
Add Acid to Milk.-To help pre-
vent curdling when acid and milk
are combined, add the acid to the
milk rather than the milk to- the
acid.
Softening ShOes.-Shoes or boots
that have become hardened from
q bad wetting will soften if rubbed

LIGHT, o}Newor
BY L. [. STEVENSON


Various attempts have been made
to solve the problem of New York's
many late theater corners. Cur
tains advertised to 60 up at $40 are
held until $3.50 or even 9 o'clock and
still the tardy ones, usually with
seats in the center Of a row, come
struggling in to the vast annoyance
of those already in their places.
Now, according to Variety, manag-
ers of legitimate houses are contem-
plating going into a huddle with the
Broadway association to see if there
isn't some remedy for the nuisance.
The idea in mind is the $3.50 or 10
o'clock curtain. To make up for the
lost time and to bring the final cur
tain near the usual hour, the plays
would be "streamlined' by shorten
ing or doing away with intermis-
sionS.
Two main causes for theater tar
diness are given. One is the in
creasing habit of late dining. More
and more New Workers are taking
to the habit Of eating in the CONT
mental fashion. That is, leisurely.
the result is they do not think about
the theater until the first act is well
under way, or is at an end. Ere
quently the movies are a conpro-
mise, the late shows in various mid
town houses, especially Radio City
Music hall, attracting white-tie and
|ermine audiences. The other main
cause for lateness is traffic con-
|gestion. The theaters are mostly
west Of Broadway or very close to
Broadway. The smart dining
places are on the East Side. At
theater hour, cross-town traffic Is
series Of jerks with long waits in
between.
In a number Of establishments,
"theater dinners" are served. The
head waiter is notified as to what
play is to be visited. From his
timetable, he ascertains the curtain
time and then connives with the chef
to get the diners out in due season.
In number Of midtown establish
ments, curtain timetables are dis
played. But all that entails hurry
and New Workers, when dining,
don't like to hurry no matter what
their habits may be on other occa-
sions. So the move for the late cur
tains. And If they do 60 into ef-
feet, the usual number Of show-offs
will continue to stumble over feet
and seats in the middle Of the act.
At least, that's my guess.
New York kitchens contain many
gadgets despite their small size.
There are electrical appliances Of
various kinds, from orange juicers
to clocks, of course. The latest I've
noted is two-door vegetable bin.
When l was youngster, the vege-
table bin was in the cellar and it
was my spring job to 60 down there
and sprout and sort the potatoes.
But New Workers don't have cellar
storage space except for trunks, etc.
Also, New Workers move frequently
and like to take their belongings
with them. That applies to vege.
table bins as we'll as suction ven
tilators for kitchen windows.
One thing I've never been able to
understand is why New York land.
