LTD NEXT N.B. _ IN THE OCTAGON brancti Shop; Duke’s Bldgs. Cargill's Crnr An up-to-date New York restaurant is searching for waitresses with red hair ae an additional attraction for its customers, and girls with the right Titiah hue command a higher weekly salary. Another catering firm running a chain of restaurants expects its waitresses to possess " Ziegfeld legs," and will engage only those who might do honour to a first-class musical comedy chorus. In these cafes stockings are not permitted to hide elegant ankles. This search for pulchritude on the part of restaurant owners has angered older waitresses, who declare sarcastically that beauty has usurped the place of brains in their profession. In the pld days a waitress could remember six orders at a time, but nowadays girls are supplied with pencil and paper, or the customer is obliged to write down his own order. The elder women are wondering what will their future be now that restaurants will not have waitresses over 30 or weighing more than 9st.
