By -WllUaattlTy, Correpanient of Th Joarnmi. Berlin, Aug. ... 20. It makes a good story. to dwell on the wild extra va of "gay Berlin;" and to show that millions or: marks, are being squandered- daily in riotous living by the people of a nation that' cannot par its debts. : After n that has been, written and printed on this sub. Ject. however, the traveler In search of woraty pleasure, is deeply, disappointed in the German subject i .. . i As a matter ; of - plain 'fact, .Berlin is possuiiy the dullest and deadest, capital in Europe today. Of " course there are war profiteers who made sudden fortunes ana who are. bent on dlssioatinr them. but . they are first of all relatively few. ana seconaty tney do not appear to know how to- go sbout oelng spendthrifts in true metropolitan fash ion. f TIGHT MFE? ,IS3fT f The visitor ; who "goes out to see', the cuy arter dark. the. scandalous -"night life"of Berlin, discovers first that te theatre begins at -7 o'clock, so as to close at 10. under the strict police regulations of the' city. These 'regulations -were or iginally s Intended ,-s a fuel-saving measure, . but have" survived the fuel shortage and are continued, no one knows exactly why. If the-tourist has toggea himself j out In evening dress,' he will as likely as not he disappointed tot find that he 4s the only person in the theater who has carried the festive soirit toi that degree. Instead . of the swallow-tailed. tophatted. monocled dandies of Paris and London., he sees. not. perhaps, sackcloth and ashes, but at any rate sack coats ana glasses.

Hardly enough rouge on the faces of the whole crowd to deck the lips of one Parisienne, scarcely enough powder . on all those shiny noses to whiten one little French nose at the bar of the Kolles Bereerel Oh. well, after all, perhaps it was a mis take to try the theatre, he beaux and beauties of this great, gay city are. prob ably at the--dancing places. So- thinks the -optimistic traveler. - So off to the Fledermaus, . or some other reputed haunt of unfettered high life. But alas ! Here again is disappoint ment. .The place is crowded with young and old who must have come on enter tainment "bent and resolved to have it at any price, but -what a crowd ! Seven eighths of the people are good bourgeois who have come for the eame purpose' as the foreign visitor, to see how the half-1! world amuses itself. The small minority constituting the remaining eighth- are ludicrous Imitation of their French and English prototypes. A stringed or chestra plays- rag and jazz with a heavy. sticky movement. As each tune strikes up, couples, meve out onto the floor and go stolidly through the' steps of a gen eration ago, or else,' if they are young and . bold, try to astonish the onlookers with1 'clumsy improvisations. ' Not one step, not a face nor a figure, not a gown or - slash of color - that is not : awkward and "that would not psoduce the. effect.

It is Just ' a collection of groups that happen to be sathered " under one roof. - x , . - , Then, some female: singer, .- probably from one of the theatres, rises .on her table as the music plays a- few -mournful bars. A chorus of "sh-h-h" from all corners of ' the hall. She sings a senti mental German ballad. Here at last a common note is struck, something that binds -all these people together Into one. Wild applause, another ballad, encore. encore U j . . A last dance, and then lights begin to go out. Waiters glide about hastily dis tributing bills for the evening's "enter tainment." It is eleven-thirty. -Police regulations. . : , v - ' ' , Oh, there.,, are , clandestine "night Joints" where police laws don't operate and where the curious may go on drink ing the . same stuff at still higher prices until dawn.

This is going to stop, partly through the action of French couturiers, and partly through the work of the leading dress artists of this country.
