NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-9Green-
wich Village the Greenwich VU-
lage which was . a i remnant :of old
New: York, .which was a link, with
the Old Wotld' where the cus
toms.4 jnanners 'and liberties of an
easier-golng.-elTiUzation proiidert
a haren for refugees from the hus
tle and bustle of modern America
has gone:y:'y.''vt -r' : ;i
New ; York, has1 been, robbed of
its Latin Quarter, its artists' col
ony has been; disbanded by Broad
way, Brooklyn, - and. the: v Bronx,
aided by prohibition and a housing
crisis. Th6 onslaught-was begun
during the ' war, when the rest of
the country poured Into the Vil
lage, young and old thirsting f of
Urea of art and liberty, and it has'
today overcome the last barriers'.
Gone- are the - Villagers, and . with
them - the spaghetti "raeccas," the
"chip-in" sketch classes, and the
"open-boua?; studios that only a
short time! ago made the locality i
famous. ' - i. t, -;j
" . Time was -when painters', play
wrights, writers, musicians . arid
artists of no particular profession;
roregathered . in the headquarters
which hare now, disappeared. Tbe
rule was work hard and'play hard.
There were thoae who seemed not
to work at all. But that was no
one's1 business. It the Idler was a
witif he lored the beauty, the
workers tried to create, jhft was re
ceiTBd with, open arms. But the
interloper, the seeker after atmos
phere, was Quickly frozen out and
seni packing. " ' .
Tie war. sent .many, of- theVil
lagers tfr foreign 1 fields; many
never came . back. .Most -of those
who - served- in ' France . returned
there after the war, having, found
that Pari offered' what 1 ihe YMt
lag had once had. Others
aehieved the npperTrag, of ;the
ladders of their dreams. Still
others, merely- disappeared. A11
are gone from the old haunts."
In the place of the chean studios
and flats hewn out . of buildings
hoary with age, apartment houses
as splendid and as1 expensive as
those ofPark Avenue have prog
ressively reared their ten or IS
stories ?from 14th Street down" to
Eighth,1 and hundreds of nlctnr-
esque old houses have been renor
rated Into similar apartments to
contribute to . - the real l - estate
agents' paradise. , k U-W--.-.
The pleasant Italian and French
table dhotes where once one dined
in old-world fashion : for - a ". small
sum, now offer food as an, acces
sory to their red wine. The closed
blinds hide from passing police
men groups of men and women
who seek their amusement with as
much efficiency as they; put Into
meir caorea in the skyscrapers of
workaday New Yorfc v,. . ,
The 'younger generation la in
charge in the tea-rooms. The
flapper and her mate, tha .niior
iate:(who Is more often a clerk),
aance and drink and bask In the
knowledge that ther ara emanci
pated.
; - In' striking contrast are the seri
ous' minded ' men And wnm An
young-' and mlddleaged, who hare
come to the' Tillage to dwell and
work, among the artists'.' They
live .for-the -most nart alona. hmu
against hope for the great success
ror which their people are wait
ing, and write glowing letters of
progress bak home'
