A Vanishing American
I noticed in the papers the
other day that the bartenders'
union and the W.C.T.U. had un
fortunately chosen the same week
and the same San Francisco hotel
for their respective national con
ventions. An intolerable situa
tion almost developed, but the
bartenders proved gentlemen to
a man and gracefully postponed
their engagement.
I consider this move of the
barkeeps very generous. Certain
ly if both the unions had held
their fishfries at the same time
there would inevitably be a con
siderable amount of blight cast
ing and pall throwing going on, if
not worse.
And great as is my respect for
the W.C.T.U., I still think there
is nobody who can take the place
of the bartender, a patient soul
and one of infinite variety. He
listens to more palaver a day
than any other living being. He
listens to bad jokes by the score
and is master of the hollow
laugh. He knows all about base
ball, politics, and the habits of
the boll weevil.
This generous gesture of the
bartenders in San Francisco is
just one more example of the
gradual decline of the profession,
a decline attributable without
question to the influx of women
into the drinking business.
In the first place they don't
know what to do with their feet,
being totally incapable of nego
tiating that brass rail which is
such a necessary adjunct to ev
ery potation depot. Draping the
pedal extremity over the footrail
is a prerogative of man's alone,
and has reached its present form
of polished technique from gen
erations. of careful stepping over
door sills when in a jingled con
dition. A woman leaning on a
bar looks like a spavined camel
who, in a preoccupied moment,
has stepped into the Great Tar
Pit of Utah. No profession can
operate under conditions like
this.
Furthermore, women in bars
eat all the peanuts and order
drinks like Pink Ladies and sloe
gin Ella Booles. Instead of en
gaging in standard conversation
about the technicalities of the
infield fly or the wonders of the
human foot, they gibber among
themselves of a girdle sale at the

matter, a woman In a bar sol
emnly believes that every man in
the place has evil designs on her
and is contemplating a daring
abduction on a milk-white horse.
If they don't believe it, they hope
it.
When I consider all these
things, I feel very badly about
the future of the barkeep. I am
overcome by nostalgia, and I

is barely discernible.
