The 48th edition of the Social
Register, exhibit "A" of those listed,
and cpnveniently hidden in bottom
dresser drawers of social climbers,
has Just been isfcued. It shows that
many of the socially elect are stay
ing in their country homes for the
winter rather than making the cus
tomary migration to town. The
reason isn't stated—preference or
financial necessity?

ice bar shining up a new shipment
of wine and liqueur glasses. With
a broad smile he remarked, "Haven't
got used to these yet. And cocktails?

so it is with every restaurant in
town that hasn't retained the bar
men of old or drawn on ihe former
employees of the most high-priced
speakeasies. New York is going in

drinking.

Saturday afternoon seems to be
the busiest part of the week for the
street vendors who call themselves
"pitch men" and for shoe shine men.
Back of the Metropolitan Opera
building on Seventh avenue we
counted 16 shine men in a single
block and across the street in the
same block there were 12 pitch men
and two sandwich men.
A string of restaurants specializ
ing in Italian foods go under the
name of Caruso. The waiters are
Italian for the most part, but the
manager's name is Bloom! . . . And
the cashiers? . . .
Roland Young collects penguins—
in onyx, carnelian, ivory, china, jade,
alabaster, and a stuffed one. Says
these seri-comic birds give him the
right slant on the human race and
a saving sense of humor.
Sally, the three year old daugh
ter of a South American was im
prisoned after five months of petty
at Pier 7 on the Hudson Riv-
Ir. \Among other charges against
her Were the theft of many ham
mers fend screwdrivers, the break
age of almost a dozen 200 watt
lamps, theft of a night watch
man's lunch basket, snatching his
alarm throwing it at him.
Three men who have been trying to
capture her for. a month have had
great difficulties> for Sally was ex
tremely agile, they say—even for
monkey.
