The other slim, blond, graceful—like a girl on a magazine covet. In the ‘corner a cymbalom, played by a squatty, thick-museled wrestler with a face like a gargoyle. A clari- net player, aged before his time, his face pale as a mask of death. Gaudy paintings and trappings in hideous combination of colors. Men sitting about wire-legged tables, all wearing their caps and hats. The music starts in a mad frenzy. The girls beat tambourines, The cymbalom player throws back his head and. bays, like a hound at the moon, He splutters and spits and twists his features into imbecilic grimaces. Two young fellows arise from a table. They toss a dollar bill to the cymbalom player and he shuts up, beginning to play in a new frenzy. They beckon to two of the fat girls who come down to dance. The men take handkerchiefs from their pockets and twist one end about their forefingers, The girls hold the other end. They walk about a small dancing space. They follow no pat- tern of steps. They walk, walk, walk. The man follows the girl at two paces. They reverse and the girl fol- lows the man. Their steps seem to be entirely independent of the tempo of the music. The cymbalom player and the clarinetist grow weak. The gargoyle face opens to emit his crazy sounds. One of the dancers throws him an- other dollar bill. It passes along to stuffs it into a cigar box. The vol- ume of music increases again, Again the same old steps. It is very much like the childish game of ring-around-the-rosy—only not so pretty. The dancers stop. A waiter hands them demi-tasses of mastigo, a sweet- ish drink of anisette. He points out the patrons who have bought it.

We can eat just so much—1400 pounds of solids a year and about the same amount of liquids. If you have just an average appetite, every year you eat 1400 pounds of solid food and almost as much liquids. water that forms a natural Celery, for instance, is In a lifetime you eat enough food to fill a train of freight So estimates a scientist. Mother, who carries the heavy the estimate is too low. There was a time when people ate what they could get. In primitive days food was largely a matter of chance. The iprowler in the jungle or forest might kill a wild turkey one day and a cave bear the next. He might find berries, again it would be roots or leaves. There was no telling in advance what the day would bring forth in the matter of food. In time, man learned to domesticate animals and culti- vate the soil. The element of chance grew less. Diet became more certain. He could grow the things he liked best. Then men began to specialize. Food raising was left to a definite part of the population. Families had a wider choice. ‘They could buy what they preferred—and get variety. Came the age of advertising. Publicity has been applied strenuously to foodstuffs, inducing people to buy certain their minds instead of leaving the choice entirely to the eater. method—propaganda to entice people into using certain specific foods in preference to Thus the raisin growers unite in an advertising campaign to increase their sales by educating people to a knowledge that they need iron, found in raisins.

Two other young blades arise and join them. One is slim. His hair is jet black, greasy and eight inches long. They all hold handkerchiefs. All remove their coats, Two have their sleeves caught with bright blue garters. The long-haired youth is the cracker on the whip. He swirls to the floor, like a whirling dervish, swiveling on the handkerchief held by one of the others. He springs like an acrobat on the stage, but his motions are not in rhythm to the music. On they go, drinks, crazy yelps from the cymbalom player, dollars tossed to the musicians till the cigar box is stuffed. The audience seems the big fat lady on the end and she] 9 ‘apathetic. Only the drunken dancers are having a good time. The girls with ankles and torsoes like the Colossus of Rhodes remain impassive. When they dance their interest in their partners is entirel; impersonal. There is no contact of bodies, no insinuating motions. No moralist could find fault with the dancing except for the heavy toll the dancers pay for their fiddling. Art? The classics of Greece? An- cient worship of perfect form?
