Time Was When— A few years ago a girl would re fuse to enter a lunchttiom and sit on a stool at the counter unless she was young and anxious for some new prank. Some lunch rooms sre equipped with nothing but counter stools. There are no tables to bring up a question of the proper thing to do. Lunchroom attendants report that the Jfc // girls do not hesitate to enter where ths men are hurriedly eating lunch.
