WOMEN TALK
WAITERS FAVORED. MEN HEAR AND FORGET. LONDON, December 3. “ Waitresses are admirable in tenshops. but- they do not agree with the atmosphere of banquets, because women talk too much,'’ says the ■"Caterer,” commenting on the fact that, waitresses were employed at the Institute ol British Architects’ dinner at the Guildhall, at which the Prince of Wales attended. The *' Caterer ” says it is part- of the country’s tradition to have waiters at any function of real importance. Ancient families would not dream of employing waitresses, because men do not feel at ease before women, and arc unable to speak freely. Waiters bear what yon want, and forget the test, whereas 99 par emit, of men diners dnot trust, waitresses’ discretion, and pave a dread lest talk beard at table will ha repeated outside.
