The military conscription lavs and
the demand Tor laborers al wages < on
siderably higher than can be paid for
waiting on table gradually made im
possible the obtaining of experienced
men waiters in tin- mess halls and in
the lunch room. and. after fruitless
efforts to maintain the service with
elderly men and boys, recourse final

strong enough to wait on table was

man s pay at some other position
