pace is likely to become commonplace

now the quick-lunch business amounts
to considerably more than two billions

Feminine Influence
DINGNEss has disappeared gener-

walls are still tiled in white but tiling
is giving way to landscapes, elaborate

the feminine influence. Ten years ago
four-fifths of the patronage was mas

With dinginess and smelliness. bad
cookery and inferior foods went into

business in this country.

AS our defense program widens, that

eateries are on the wane; quiet effi-
cheney is an asset, the quieter The
better.
Every year more than four thou
sand new luncheries get underway,
but they must be good to survive.
Yet they keep growing faster than the
population. And they are depression
proof. Their number increased faster
when times got harder.
A prevailing sense of pressure and
hustle has made the quick lunch pop
ular. Then there have been tiny
apartments, greater number OF
women in business, smaller families
and the servant problem. In New
York nearly half the meals are eaten
outside the home In San Francisco
and Los Angeles the average is one
third, in Chicago and Washington
more than one-fourth.
Yet cities don't have monopoly
on the quick lunch. In the whole land
more than one-fifth of all lunches are
eaten in a hurry. In the tranquil
village where l live, from which $50
persons commute to work in New
York, a restaurant, two diners and
three drugstores do thriving noon
time business with those who are left
behind. Thursday - the maids after
noon out - is the boom day.
In small towns drugstores and
diners do most of the business. All
told there are nearly $4,000 drug
stores with fountains, and the foun-
tains sell more sandwiches than ice
cream sodas. Many pharmacist
would go under if it weren't for this
business.
But the diners that dot our corner
lots by the thousands are more dis
tinctive product of Americas eating
habits. So named because of a some
what remote resemblance to the rail
road dining car. they have done their
bit to spread the quick-lunch habit.
They are in lineal descent from the
night owls on wheels that made
their appearance in New York toward
the middle OF the last century, where
men in toppers, on their way home
from parties. ate beside laborers on
their way to work.
Stripped of wheels and set on a
solid commercial basis. they multi
piled amazingly. Near one of our
Eastern universities there is lalla-
paloosa eighty-four feet long - twice
the usual length - which cost $25,-
600 and seats a hundred undergrad
yates at clip.
Modern refrigeration makes it pos
sible for the diner. whether in a big
city, a small town or on the roadside,
to offer a varied bill. Many of them
get their meats frozen. and their vege-
tables, too.

Loo Goblin millionaire

DoLLED up and disguised, diners
are known by other names. California
gave birth to a chain of concrete
structures on steel frames that we're
known as Log Cabins, and spawned
other chains of White Towers and
White Castles. The originator of
Log Cabins, who started out in 1880
with $4,000 working capital, per-
ceived the advantages of quality and
of quiet, and is now multimiIlion-
aire.
About half of all run-of-the-mill
diners are turned out by a man in
Elizabeth, New Jersey. A former hotel
manager, he got into the business back
in 1913, with the idea of bigger and
better product. In his first year he
took in 81 $50. but fifteen years later
his gross was million and half. He
sends out diners complete with pots
and pans, refrigerators, steam tables,
menu signs and dishes. plus plentyof
free advice. And he credits the advice
for the high rate of success among the
dentists, mechanics, statesmen and
clerks who buy his output on a three
year installment plan. Slices of pie
should be generous, never skinny;
plenty of Bermuda onion with the
hamburgers; offer mouth-watering
blue-plate combinations, such as pork
chops and sweet potatoes, he advises.
Hamburge-s make up half the
business of the diners, and White
Castles, lit of them, sell thirty-seven
million in year.
Frankfurters and hamburgers COM
bined, however, are not the end-all
of the quick lunch by any means.
New York has had its spaghetteria
and Los Angeles its chowmeinery.
And in the Others, the food fads which
sweep the country are reflected on the
bill of fare. More and more people
are asking for whole-wheat bread now.
