In no other spot in this big world are people #0 quick to appreciate and applaud an achievement as are those of New York. When there arises a great and real need for something and wome one with quick understanding, genius, push and ideas gets yp and does the real thing he has cut a high- way up to his front door that all of Manhattan is going to travel. This is exactly the situation in witch George D. Grundy of the Danc- ing} Carnival and other amusements at the Grand Central Pi finds himself, He discovered some- thing that this big town wanted, and without waiting for any advice, any counsel or any preliminary debating pinned his faith to his own beliet. threw all of his big personality and ceaseless activity into the idea and| m “ @ great big success out of the a problem, that would family at th ne time and all w one roof amid attractive surroundings absolutely free from viciousness and dissipation, He that in- nocent amusements Still more, he proved it necessary ell liquor to make a to profit out of pl v dle-aged and old people gathered to e a good time, He not only demon- ted thia, but he made a big, profit- able success out of his undertaking, and in doing this he gave to New York in his Dancing Carnival and three rings of real amusements an inatitu- tion worthy of a biessing.

Grundy a benefactor. Like most men who put their ear to the ground and who have good sense Mr. Grundy discovered that he had idea and one that the biggest floor space in New York would soon be needed for. So he took all of the room he could get in the big Grand Central Palace and made it a place of beauty. He will tell you himself that he never danced a step in his life, but he knew that nearly all of |the reat of the world loved to dance and | was willing to pay the piper. So he fit- ted up the largest dancing area tn the world and he has six bands going half the day and haif the night for those | Whe want to dance. And just how many they are can be gained by a glance at his figures. He not only created the place for young people, and all people, to dance, but he gave it a clean and healthful osphere. You can dance all you t at the Dancing Carnival, and can always get a partner if you are properly introduced, and you can \have all of the dances and steps that New York is having. But when you | @nd. your partner get out of the mazes elody you cannot have beer, ct anything that ts alcoholic: can have everything else. w is more, everybody has found it sociable, homelike and comfortable, The young person who wants to dance at Mr. Grundy’s first of all under- tands that to have a real good time here one must be a lady or a gentle- B.F.KEITH L..

Then the proximity tc the Grand Cen- tral Station has brought an inno- vation. People have learned not to wait and fret for a train. They just step around the corner and dance un- til the train is ready. If you do not know how to dance the Dancing Carnival more than wel- comes you, for its dancing classes are another of its features. There are more than @ hundred instructors for the beginner, the person who knows but the ancient waltz and wants to know all the new dances. What he has done for dancing Mr. Grundy has accomplished for other amusements, and with the same sut roundings and with the same non-fm- toxicating refreshments, He has bill- jard and pool parlors which for 44 pointments and equipments are with- out equal in the whofe country. As a novelty lad encouraged to learn the game. Equally well is the Carnival suppiled with bowling alleys. The recent mest of the association of bowlers, which took place at the Palace, brought forth nothing but praise from the most expert ball rollers of the ¢oun- try for the fine alleys. Mr, Grundy has put his alleys in the brighteat of surroundings, where there is plenty of fresh air night and day, lots of sunshine and the best of illuminating equipment at night. If he has n successful in getting the ladies to play billiards he has done the same with bowling. Still another feature Is the roller skating, where there ts a prairie-like stretch of space and the best of skates furnished. F also instructors are supplied. And just to make everybody feol at home there is a well appointed restaurant. In other words, Mr. Grundy, at his ideally conducted Dancing Carnival, has the only place in the world where the whole fam n find entertain- ment. Father c owl, mother and older daughter can play billiards tf they choose, younger sister and her young man can tango, children can kate and then they can all sit down and have dinner together. sf To this is a a fine management, |a splendid ch: nage and direction, And if you ¢ think there are Aa ein the world who want a good time and know where and ‘Now to have it, just go over to the Palace some evening and see for yourself ’s E and No Personality stly for the Palace Cents Continuous 11.30 P, M.
