SEVEN ARTS, 12 1/2 West Delaware Place

Here is bohemia — if you must have it. This is a typical Tower Town forum, located on the second floor of an old stable at the rear of a garden. Lectures are held here on Saturday and Sunday nights. Anybody may go — if he pays the small admission charge. But the point that concerns us is that food is served here — mostly sandwiches, salads, and coffee or tea. We mention the Seven Arts in case you want to eat in a truly bohemian atmosphere.
