We are sightseeing, not ‘‘rubber-necking.” for that is a thing of the past We are visiting New York, two of us from Chicago, three from Johns- town, a handful from the suburbs. We are from cvervwhere except New York, and in three hou of us will know more of dow New York than those who have i here fifty v First roof of the bus is rolled back view of the skyscrapers Kid McCoy's One Hotel “—to your left the Hotel Nor- mandy, once owned and operated by the one and only Kid McCoy." The stout man across the aisle marks his map of New York at Thirty-ninth and Broadway.

Widest Cross-Town Street “_and now we are on Fourteenth strest, the widest cross town street and once the center of business.” The barker meanwhile has won s crowd. Some of his jokes were on the vaudeville stage twen! ago, but his repartee us goes over. Before the trip is completed he will have established himself as a rare humorlst with the visitors. “_and now, Ladeez and Gentle- men, behold Fifth avenue, the old aristocratic street, the home of the near-millionaires, where apartments have nine rooms and seven baths.” There are audible gasps as he names the fabulous rentals asked for places, and the bus passes the house once occupled by Samuel Clemons and turns into Washington Square— “Bec-u-ti-ful” Girls Parade “—where the greatest artists malntain thelr studios and where the most bee-u-ti-ful girls parade at ning.” And in a confidential tone e seen 'em myself.” Then through the wholesale dis- tricts. with ench business segregated in its own quarter, and into the financial district “Trinity church ond oldest in New York. at t of Wall street; sce it, that there between the skyscrapers. street with a Chu at ene end and a river at the other.” But that went over t heads.

He has been doing eighteen vears. The Aquarium be “dome” in five minutes if we walk fast: we have our pictures taken on the sidewalk, buy twenty- five views of New York for twenty- five cents, and the lean gentleman who has never cracked a throws a handful of pennys group of ragged urchins. The teen minutes have passed.
