GAY NIGHT LIFE
DOESHOTEXIST
Pleasure :Seeker in German Capi
tal Finds Quest for Gaiety a
- Futile Pursuit.
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.

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.

Oh. well, after all, perhaps it was a mis

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

and English prototypes. A stringed or

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

each taMe. The crowd does not know

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

A cloak and suit house tends a buyer
to Paris. The buyer purchases -10 to
12 models and flits back on the next

served by the cloak and suit house sre
turning out thousands and thousands of
"models" stolen from the French styles,
and American shop girls are parading In
$39.50 imitations of $400 Rue de la Palx
gowns and dresses.
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. The first
step toward accomplishing the divorce
between French and - American styles
was the' appointment by the famous
Paris firm of ' Poiret of an American
agent who. will handle French importa
tions exclusively.
BOOST FRESCH COSTUMES . .
This to to be followed, they say on. the
avenue.-by a system by. which all the
French designers will Join in advertis
ing, boosting and marketing rrencn co
tumes in this country, and that, in -turn,
will prevent American firms from plagi
arising French dress, and force them into
doing a IHtle original designing? of. their
own. Thereafter the American woman
will choose between the two mooes ana.
they say In dress circles, there Is little
doubt as to which she will choose. The
fundamental difference between French
and American .styles is purely one of
pyschology. . '
If the American woman adopted the
short skirt after the French girl took a
reef in the nether garment, it was not
