A. canteens and this idea was car- ried out by Miss Eleanor Sheldon, who appeared in her uniform, by the familiar signs and especially by the dining room, which represented a Y. M. C. A. canteen where the guests were served coffee and doughnuts, while cider was to be had in the sun- parlor. "Ascenseur derange" was the sign on the elevator which caused men to smile in reminiscence.
