A college course in hotel manage- ment will seem novel to those who have been inclined vaguely to group hotel-men with old-fashioned tavern keepers. But the bar, which was once the principal source of revenue of the ordinary hotel, is gone and at {the same time the pressure of trav cl has enormously expanded the hotel business, which is .now one of the largest industries in the‘country in" point of capital invested, the number of workers engaged and the gross volume of business. It needs edu- cated young men. and women who can meet patrons on an equal foot- ing and also know how to handle a million-dollar investment. At their convention, recently held, the beggars in ConstantinOple voted not to accept aims of less than ten paras. They- gave the high cost “of living as the reason for their action. If people offer them less than ten iparas, their only recourse will be to strike; which somehow reminds us of the remark of the old lady who had just learned that the then recent discovery of petroleum would prob- ably put an end to the whaling husi- ; mess. “Dear! Dear!” she said, "‘wl'iat will the poor whales do now?” centuries for (30011633, paLCk‘aihithfilé and wheelbarrows into ' automobile highways is a different matter.
