~— THE EVENING WORLD, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1921, HARODERTS BACK | WALLSTREET A TRUST HEAD Elected President of the Metro- | politan—P. D, Armour on Directorate. | Samuel McRoberts resigned from fhe Vice Presidency of the National City Bank when his friend, Frank Vanderlip, got out to make room for James A. Stillman, and everybody in Wall Street predicted then that he would come back to Wall ‘Street at the head of an important financial institution and that the Armours would be associated with him. That prediction came true yester- day when Gen. McRoberts—he was a| Brigadier General in France during) the World War—was elected Presi- dent of the Metropolitan Trust Com- pany. Philip D. Arniour of Armour! & Co, was made a director. | Besides Gen. McRoberts and Mr. Armour the following directors asso- | elated with him were added to the board: Earl D. Babst, President of the American Sugar Refining Com- pany; Van Lear Black, President of | the Fidelity Trust Company of Mary- land; William B. Joyce, President of | the National Surety Company; C. G. Smith, President of the Great Ameri- | can Insuran Company, and C. W. Watson, President or the Consolida- tion Coal Company. At the meeting yesterday of the directors, William H, Maxwell jr. was elected Vice. Presi- dent.

By Roger Batchelder Australians like music, dancing and liquor, but they cannot legally like them all at the same time. That's the extent of the blue laws in the antipodes, according to C. F. Tyler, manager of the Australia Hotel in Sydney, who is at the McAlpin, Mr. Tyler is visiting the principal hotels in the United States and Canada, studying innovations and our meth- ods of operation. , “No hotel or r liquor license music tures,” taurant having a permitted to offer and dancing as added fea- said Mr. Tyler, “and con- versely, no dance hall is allowed to sell Hquor. However, the law does not prevent a hotel or restaurant from building a ballroom adjoining the main structure. A few steps between the doorways of the two buildings quickly solves the problem of the thirsty dancer. “The wartime law closing bars at 6 o'clock is still in operation, but a registered guest in a hotel may order as much as he wants at any time. This closing law has made the flask almost as popular in Australia as it is in America.” Mr. Tyler sald that travel to and from Australia has been light during 1921. “Before the war,” he said, “one large steamer a week arrived at Sydney but now about one a month is the average. .8 8 DRY PARTS OF CANADA WET AND MERRY.

They are permitted to issue 160 prescriptions a month, and one prescription is as | good as long as it can be read, some- times longer. Nobody who ‘eally wants ‘it’ worries much or waits long. A good part of the male population is apparently composed of chronic in- valids, and the annual health report will probably cause a rush of young Medical men to the district. But the more doctors, the merrier it will be. Si is Prohibition in the great North- west.” w E'LL BET ON NEW YORK’S, ANYWAY. | “It is the duty of the hotel clerk to keep himself posted on the points of interest in his city and locality, so that he can answer intelligently all inquiries,” asserts Edward T. Maples, San Francisco publisher, who is at the Belmont “Furthermore, it's up to} the hotel manager to see that his, clerks know those things. An evening paper on the Pacific Coast recently ,sent a reporter from hotel to hotel to inquire how to reach certain points of interest in the State. The clerks did not know much about ‘cither city or State, it was found, and the cha- grin of the managers was considerable when they saw the results in type.” eo * “AS OTHERS SEE US.” “Most striking of my impressions of New York is the courtesy I have received from your policemen,” sald Miss Anna G. Barnes of Los Angeles, who if at the Astor, “New York is a world in itself,” she continued, “and your picturesque Hudson fascinates me beyond expression. Our rivers are more like creeks, which overflow when the snow melts. I also notice that dry goods in particular are cheaper here than they are on the Coast. Hotels and restaurants seem to maintain standard prices every- where, but I have found wearing ap- parel cheaper in New York.” Wiles Ly Special FARTHEST FROM HOME.
