  • See all the tired workingmen herded in the hotel corral. Little do they ask of life—a morsel of food, maybe a drop of drink, to keep them alive so they can work some more. And see the two ladies who have finished their lunch and begun another fifteen-minute Niagara of conversation. By departing at once they could help repay mankind for all the unsung years during which males gave females their seats in trolley cars. But men have now broken themselves of this habit—also they are pretty good luncheon lingerers themselves—so let’s drop the subject. Artist George Hughes thinks the hungering herd should go around the corner to the hoagie bar. That’s an idea; while waiting for seats there, they could organize a luncheon club—for men only.
