A favorite stunt is to give the suck er the idea thfft the bost?ss will let him see her home. . . . While actually it is against the law and usually the host-ess slips out the ^ back way. . . . "Dancing t?n a *T4tme" is the term applied tQ the spots where the hostesses allow ; the customers to hold them rather ! closely. . . . Some males are lur- 1 >d Into the places by the signs "Dancing Lessons In Private Rooms." ... Some of the places; liave no private rooms and the ones that do usually have a male instructor. ... A good looking girl who knows how to "milk" her customer usually makes from $40 to (45 a week. . . . The average girl stays two and a half years in j tie racket while eight to ten years i seems to be about the limit that > the veterans stay in the game. . . . Less than a third of the lasses 1 are married. . . . Many are from I ehow business, some "be&ween en gagements." others that frankly j tell you that they can make more dancing with the out-of-town buy er. .. . College boys patronise one of these taxi dance shops. . . . Several have married the girls they met there. ... At least one of these marriages was quite successful, so far. . . . From the same dance hall came a girl that is now on many magazine covers. . . . There's only one animal that a dance hall proprietor hates worse than a newspaperman ? that's a cop. ... If you walk in to some of the places the girls will openly ? and quite loudly ? ?solicit you to dance with them. ... If and when you do so they will invite you to buy them a beer (liquor is not allowed). . . J If and when you do so, you keep on paying for the dances that you are not dancing. . . . Somebody ought tq re-write that "Ten Cents A Dance'' song ? the words are in reverse. Wine Hoax Because of troubled European conditions, particularly in Spam, much of the wine arriving from the other side is actually Ameri can vine which has been shipped across the sea and returned with a foreign label. Times Square Every so often your correspond ent is moved to write about Times Square. Because of his hurried steps as he rushes from his hotel to the office he sometimes crosses the Square without realizing it. Other times the traffic cacophony of Manhattan's mad vortex, slows bis pace and he pauses to wonder at this modern Arabian Night Dream. Times Square begins at 42nd street and converges triangularly until it reaches 47th street. In cluded in this small area are all examples of mans' search for pleasure. Hotels, restaurants, cafes, cinemas, shops, theatres ? oife next) to the other and each vieing for patronage. Blazing multi-colored electric and neon lights, turn night into day. On chilly nights as you pass the theatres, the heat, that eman ates from lights under the mar quees, gives a pleasant warmth. Endless streams of people ? young and old. Some hurrying to an objective, others aimlessly strolling ? seeing the sights. Boot blacks with portable stands ? dod ging policemen in the best Oliver Twist manner. Chorus girls ? scurrying into cross t-own streets. Blind beggars. College boys initiat ing a pledge. Taxis, buses, trams ? in a chain-like procession. Touts, Broadway's "smart money" characters, some of whom live as kings bat with no ostensible oc cupation. A1J here assembled in this crowded Square which is really a triangle.

Timely Farm* Questions Answered at State College QUESTION: How long must a hog be kept from feed before killing? ANSWER: Do not give the ani mals any feed at all for 24 hours before killing, but they should have plenty of water at all times. It is easier to get a good bl?ed when the system is not gorged with food and the meat always cures better when the small blood i vessels are fre from food par- 1 tides and blood.
