Good morning, Mister, Sir o r Count, " W h a t w i l l it be to-day ! And Frank awaits the deft reply : " The same as yesterday." The noise o f liquor, ice and shake; A kingly mixing knack; A sandwich, almond o r a chip, Then " bottoms-up " and " smack ! That's pretty good ! " says he t o Frank, I guess I'll shoot one more! " Right, Mister, Sir o r Count," says Frank, " The morning's rather r a w ! " A Rose ", Martini sec " o r " Bronx ", They're all the same t o Frank! A call for you er- Mr. Smith, You're wanted at the Bank." Er- thank you, Frank, have you seen Jones ? H e said he'd meet me here." H e just stepped o u t the Cambon side, He's had his morning beer." U n Porto flip pour vous, Vicomte ? Vite la, petit, du lait! " You're looking better, Mr. Brown, Is this your first today ? " And so it goes from m o r n till night And always you go back, For never is your name forgot By Frank the " Cracker Jack ".

FOREWORD
Though Frank Meier's primary object is t o expound the a r t o f mixing drinks which he has studied and practised so long, I feel that some mention should be made in the book regarding the institution o f the American bar and the rare qualities which the man behind it should possess. W h a t Europeans call an American bar is in fact international in its t r u e sense. Visitors from all countries expect, and can have, their o w n special drinks and whilst cocktails are perhaps the main raison d'Etre " this institution has various other points. It is in a way a meeting-place where acquaintanceship and introductions are easy and where, in consequence, the barriers o f many inhibitions and shyness disappear without great formality. This definition is not intended t o accuse American bars o f democracy, o r t o deny the merits o f " pubs ", " bistros " o r weinstuben ". Many readers undoubtedly have their pet pub o r beer garden t o back against any bar. Few people realize that the mood o f the man when having his d r i n k is o f the greatest importance; i f the drink, the atmosphere o f the place, and the barman's smile and amiability are conducive t o putting its patron in the right frame o f mind, the success of such a place is certain. The successful barman must be a chemist, a physiologist and a psychologist o f the first order, in other words the t r u e mixologist is a man o f science. Furthermore, he requires an understanding o f humanity, and ability t o sympathize w i t h his patrons'

real o r fancied troubles, and laugh when they repeat a story which he had t o l d them the day before. H e must be able and t o advise on almost any subject from the proper diet for pet dogs o r goldfish t o selection o f a restaurant o r theatre which would please their aunts o r their business associates. He must see that they are served promptly and w i t h good drinks, and remember their individual preferences. H e must develop some o f the qualities o f the chameleon, yet retain a personality o f his own. Tact is essential, as misunderstandings have a way o f arising after the ...n t h drink. A good barman really requires everything a diplomat should have and something more, genuine knowledge o f food and drink. Frank Meier's book enables one t o enjoy at home o r elsewhere the various drinks which he has made and served t o a world-wide clientele. His many friends and admirers w i l l welcome his work, which gives the secret formulas. Once more, even though absent, they w i l l have those delicious drinks which Frank alone can serve. One element however w i l l be lacking : the personality o f the author and his proficiency.

INTRODUCTION

Many w i l l ask what is the origin o f Cocktails. In compiling this book on the art o f mixing drinks I have recently had t h e occasion t o investigate the origin o f the name I 6 Cocktails ". The inventor o f this boon t o mankind w i l l perhaps always remain unknown. But, in going through some old documents, I find the following story, which, authentic o r not, may please many : In 1779, Betsy Flanagan set up a "Tavern" near Yorktown where the American and French officers o f the Revolutionary A r m y met and enjoyed a new sort of drink compounded by Betsy which became very popular and was called a " Bracer ". In the neighbourhood an Englishman kept splendid poultry imported from his mother-country. Betsy Flanagan was fiercely hostile t o this gentleman and was always promising t o feed the American and French officers w i t h a fine fowl that was in the loyalist's grounds. From time t o time they would tease her about the delay in carrying her promises into effect. One night, when there was an unusual attendance of these officers at the tavern, she invited them i n t o her dining room where was spread a bountiful feast o f chicken. T h e Englishman's chicken coop had been raided. W h e n the chicken banquet was over, Betsy invited the guests i n t o the bar, and w i t h great pride pointed t o the chicken tails

spread gracefully around bottles o f Bracers ". The surprise was complete and the event recognized by three hearty cheers for Betsy Flanagan, the cause o f the Colonists and confusion t o the English. The " Bracers " came off those shelves in a great h u r r y and the remainder o f the night was passed in the bar-room amidst the " Cocks' Tails " and the inspiring " Bracers ". l 6 Give us some more o f those Cocktails '," was the frequent order; Vive la Cocktail," shouted a French officer. This was the keynote t o the now celebrated name. It stuck ". The above narration may be t r u t h o r fiction; what still remains a fact that has been known for over three generations throughout the civilized w o r l d is that, by using the finest ingredients, and mixed w i t h care and precision, the Cocktail w i l l always be the d r i n k o f good-fellowship. More and more they are becoming popular, thousands of people on every part o f the globe d r i n k them, but few have acquired the a r t o f mixing a perfect drink. The Cocktail should always be perfect: there is no reason ever t o d r i n k a bad one. Almost any o f the ingredients o f which Cocktails are composed might better be consumed " straight " rather than just carelessly poured together.

Indications of Measures for Cocktails

fluid ounces 2 drams = 6 centilitres ; fluid ounce 1 dram = 3 centilitres ; drams 112 = 1 centilitre 112 ; drams = 1 centilitre ; drams 114 = 75 millilitres or 1 teaspoon ; teaspoon = 6 dashes ; dash = about 12 drops.

N o standard size of glass has so far been adopted. The measures given o f the amount o f liquid used t o make a normal

sized Cocktail are o f six centilitres, o r o f t w o fluid ounces t w o drams; divided into halves. fourths, eighths. etc ... O n e eighth equals one teaspoon o r six dashes, o r about seventy drops. The Gigger " i n use i n America is a very practical double measure : the bigger size holds one ounce t w o and a half drams, o r three and a half centilitres; the small size about half o f the above-mentioned amount. The G i l l ", an English measure, holds five fluid ounces and

can be divided, when mixing Cocktails, in halves, thirds, fourths. fifths, sixths, eighths, etc... Great care should always be taken when mixing drinks: a l i t t l e t o o much o r n o t quite enough o f the proportions indicated often changes the entire taste, thereby spoiling the result expected. T o have a perfect blend and smoothness use only the finest ingredients in making your drinks. A Cocktail is one o f the a t words in the artistry of mixing ". Follow closely the formulas given herein and always refer t o the pages o f advertisements when replenishing your supplies. Aged whiskeys i n Manhattans, " t h a t supreme Gin", which is " The Heart o f a good Cocktail ", in Martinis and Bronx, and specially selected Vermouths in both. M i x w i t h infinite care and the result w i l l be the Miracle-Cocktail which has made the Ritz Bar famous. My book would not be complete w i t h o u t a w o r d t o the younger generation. Now, as in the past, the a r t o f rational drinking is an accomplishment as indispensable as dancing o r bridge, and a fair knowledge o f wines and liqueurs, t h e i r provenance, characteristics, best years, etc., etc., forms part o f a gentleman's culture. The passing generation o f Englishmen knew wines, and it is m y sincere hope that this knowledge be increased, throughout the world.

Any young man who can convince me that his lips w i l l never touch alcohol need not follow my required course in drinks and drinking. T o know how t o d r i n k i s as essential as t o know how t o swim, and one should be at home in both these closely related elements. Each man reacts differently t o alcohol; he should k n o w before the time when. according t o custom, he indulges in his first collegiate binge", whether liquor affects his head, his legs o r his morals; whether he sings, fights, weeps, climbs lamp-posts o r behaves w i t h excessive affection toward the opposite sex; whether. in short, it makes him a jovial companion o r a social pest. A knowledge o f these weaknesses w i l l help t o overcome them. " K n o w your capacity and stay within limits." One can drink sensibly, i f one knows what a chaos a mixture o f liquors can produce. In vino veritas", so often quoted, does not mean that a man w i l l tell the t r u t h when in drink, but w i l l reveal the hidden side of his character.

Grapes will g r o w wherever there is a little sun. Since Caesar and the early Christian fathers discovered that the climate and soil o f France produced superlatively fine wine, the French have made the best o f ideal conditions until pure wine-making has become an art i n which they excel. They have proved that " years " are real tests o f quality. N o people more than the wine growers o f Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne would like t o have all years " great years The next best thing t o annual "great years " is p u r i t y and naturalness. This is what French wine producers insist on. A good wine merchant, a good wine-butler o r a good barman w i l l always recommend real French wine.

T o know wine, how t o serve it and h o w t o order a meal is and should be considered an art. Very few people, I am sorry t o say. realize this. The above explanation " H o w t o serve Wines " is very elaborate; much simpler ways exist t o lunch and dine well. just one sort o f wine (white Burgundies for lunch and Clarets for dinner in preference) can be served without being exposed t o criticism. For smart dinners Champagne can be served from start t o finish, and hosts o f people, who have a knowledge o f savoir vivre ", do it. It simplifies matters, and by offering expensive and fine wine like Champagne one can avoid the pitfalls o f the uninitiated in wine law.

The town of Bordeaux has given its name t o the world's most famous wine growing region. This fortunate district of more than 300,000 acres with its broad plains and sunny slopes produces some of the finest white and red wines (the latter also known as clarets), which can be called, without fear of contradiction, the aristocrats of the dinner table.

Although not officially classified like t h e Bordeaux wines, the Burgundies have always been considered as the kings o f a wines. The Cote de Dijon, the Cote de Nuits and Cote de Beaune (Cote d 1 0 r o r Golden Hills) and the Cote Chalonnaise produce in an average good year about 300,000,000 bottles, and without any exaggeration fully ten times that amount o f wine i s sold throughout the w o r l d as Burgundy from France. The Rhone Valley (Cotes du Rhone) also produces excellent red and white wines. The outstanding brands are Cote Rotie, Hermitage, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Chateau Griilet, and Tavel (couleur roske).

CHAMPAGNE

The vines imported i n t o the Champagne region by the Romans at the beginning of the Ill century were cultivated and improved by t h e religious orders, w h o immediately recognized that wine was a source o f progress, o f activity and of health: it was therefore under the protection o f the monasteries that most of t h e vineyards rose t o prosperity.

a
[El

Iq Fa
About the X I V century vineyards covered the whole district and from that time onwards the wine was proudly offered t o the Kings o f France when they came t o be crowned at Rheims. Champagne was then looked upon as the greatest treasure in the cellars o f the Kings and nobles; good King Henri I V delighted in bedecking himself w i t h the title o f " Lord o f A y ". The most consummate tasters at the C o u r t o f Louis XIV, who instituted the Order o f the Hillsides ", made the reputation o f Champagne. Spare no expense," wrote Saint Evremond t o the Count o f Olonne, " t o get some Champagne; no district supplies better wine for all seasons." A t the end o f the XVII century a Benedictine monk, belonging t o the Abbey o f Hautvilers near Epernay, discovered the method o f bottling the wine at the right season and making i t retain its sparkling qualities, together w i t h perfect limpidity and a pale colour ... hitherto unknown.

This discovery led t o a great development o f the renown o f Champagne, and the memory o f D o m Perignon, who is buried at Hautvillers, is duly honoured in the country. W h i l e the gathering o f the grapes is in full swing on the hills, carts go t o and f r o between the vineyards and the press houses; the presses are worked day and night, and thousands o f barrels o f the precious " must " are carried off t o the merchants' establishments. The fermentation, due t o ferments which are naturally present in the juice, begins at once in the barrels; the " m u s t " appears t o be in a state o f ebullition and swells and hisses under the influence of the changes which are taking place in its composition. Little by little everything calms down, and the miracle o f fermentation i s accomplished. W h a t was only sweet grape juice is now magnificent wine. T o the wine, in order t o facilitate the fermentation, a very small quantity o f pure candy sugar is added, and the bottles are securely corked and lowered t o the cellars. The bottles are placed in holes in a board, in a sloping position

w i t h the cork downwards; after several years of this treatment, the whole of the deposit collects close t o the cork. The cork is removed by the pressure from natural gas. it is actually driven out and the sediment w i t h it. The wine is perfectly limpid now and before recorking the bottle the necessary sweetening i s effected by adding s t i l l more pure candy sugar dissolved in Champagne o f the best quality. The object o f this is t o meet the taste of the consumer, who, according t o different countries, may prefer wines more o r less sweetened. Before shipping, the bottle i s " dressed " w i t h a capsule and label bearing the name o f the firm and the word Champagne " which is a legal guarantee of i t s origin. The district which the French law has authorized t o give the name of Champagne t o i t s wine is small compared w i t h other wine growing regions. The nature of the soil, the sorts of vine grown, and the special methods of cultivation in use result in the production of a high quality at the sacrifice o f quantity; here, as elsewhere, quality is scarcely compatible w i t h quantity. The crop varies considerably from year t o year and can only be estimated by taking an average over a long period. For 3 0 normal years the average production was 450,000 hectolitresorabout 10,000.000gallons ayear.i.e. 60,000,000 bottles.

NAUTICAL MILES The circumference o f the earth i s divided into 3 6 0 degrees, each degree containing 6 0 nautical miles, consequently the circumference of the earth, viz. 131,385,456 feet divided by 21,600 ( 3 6 0 x 60) gives the length o f a nautical mile, viz. 6,082-66 feet, which is generally considered the standard. 1 statute mile = 5,280 feet 1 degree ,, = 6 9 - 12 1 statute miles. The nautical mile and geographical mile are n o w accepted as 6,080 feet. The small difference between the t w o values is as follows : Based o n 6,080 ft. Based on 6,082-66 ft. 1 nautical mile = 1 - 15 statute mile = 1.1 52 statute mile 2 5 nautical miles = 2 8 - 7 8 statute miles = 2 8 - 8 statute miles 1 statute mile = - 8 6 8 4 naut, mile = - 8 6 8 naut. mile 25 statute miles = 21.71 nautical miles = 21.7 naut. miles 1 kilometre = 0 - 6 2 statute mile = 1 , 0 9 4 yards = 3.280-8 feet 8 kilometres = 5 miles approximately. The French. German and Austrian nautical mile is 6,076 feet in length. The knot is a measure o f speed, the speed o f one k n o t being a speed of one nautical mile per hour. To convert statute miles into nautical miles multiply statute miles by 0.8684; t o convert nautical miles into statute miles, multiply nautical miles by 1 - 151 5.

The equatorial circumference o f the earth is 24,902 miles; the meridional circumference, 24,860 miles. The earth is divided into 3 6 0 degrees. The length o f one degree o f longitude i s 6 9 . 121 miles. Each degree o f longitude represents four minutes of time. The lines o f longitude are termed " Meridians ". The diameter o f the earth at the equator is 7 , 9 2 6 , 6 7 7 miles, and through the poles 7 , 8 9 9 - 9 8 8 miles. The weight o f the earth has been estimated at six sextillion,

5 9 2 quintillion tons, not including theatmosphere, whose weight


has been estimated at more than five quadrillion short tons. The average elevation o f the land above sea level is approximately 2,800 feet. The average depth o f the ocean below sea level is 1 2 , 5 0 0 feet. The deepest place in the ocean yet found i s in the Mindinao, between the Philippines and Japan, where soundings o f 34,210 feet have been reported. The highest mountain is Mount Everest, in the Himalayas. 29,141 feet. Over 2,000,000,000 ( t w o billions) of people live o n theglobe and speak actually 2,800 different languages.

METRIC CARAT WEIGHTS FOR PRECIOUS STONES, METALS AND PEARLS


The weight o f precious stones is given in metric carats; a metric carat is divided i n t o 1 0 0 cent-carats. A metric carat = 0.2 gramme. For pearls the grain is used. The grain equals 114 carat o r 0 - 0 5 gramme and is divided i n t o 1 0 0 parts. There are weights for the carat, multiples and submultiples. They are used for precious stones and pearls. Special weights i n grains d o n o t exist. T o obtain a weight in grains, multiply by 4 the weight i n carats. 1 gramme = 5 carats = ( 5 x 4) 20 grains. 1 carat = 0 - 2 gramme; 1 grain = 0 - 0 5 gramme. The carat is correctly used as expressing the degree of fineness. but n o t as a weight. Pure gold is described as 2 4 carats.

HORSE RACING
The Ancients had chariot races, the Romans raced riderless horses, but real horse-racing had its inception in England, race rneetinzs were already held, records show, at Smithfield, in I 174. Henry Vlll arranged for che first racing at Chester; James I built a course at Newmarket in 1 6 0 7 and during his reign the three ancestors of all thoroughbreds : Byerley Turk, Darley Arabian and Godolphin Arabian were imported from Arabia. Charles I gave a cup t o be raced for in Hyde Park. Charles I 1 instituted Autumn meetings at Newmarket and occasionally rode in races there. Royal Ascot dates from the time of Queen Anne, the f i r s t meeting being held on August I t h , 171 I. l The Doncaster St. Leger, so called after Colonel St. Leger, was first run in 1776. Three years later the 12th Earl o f Derby inaugurated the Oaks, named after his seat, & * T h e Oaks ", and the following year the same nobleman founded the world's greatest classic, l 4 The Derby ", run for the f i r s t time over a mile on May 4th, 1780, worth 1,100 the race was won by 6sDiomed,'' who was later sent t o America.

Nowadays the race is over a mile and a half, is generally run on the first Wednesday in June, and the value has so increased that it was worth in 1935 nearly 0,000 t o 61Bahram" owned by H. H. The Aga Khan. Four foreign horses have won this classic: the French-bred Gladiateur " in 1865, the Hungarian-bred 16Kisber" in 1875, the American horse Iroquois " in 1881 and the French-trained Durbar" in 1 91 4. llGladiateur'' also won the Two Thousand Guineas, the St. Leger and the Ascot Gold Cup; he was however not the first French horse t o win in England- this honour belongs t o Jouvence ", who in 1 853 won the Goodwood Cup.

Goodwood races were established in 1 802, the Goodwood Cup being given in 181 2. The Two and One Thousand Guineas came in 1809 and 181 4 respectively; the Manchester Cup in 181 6, the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire in 1839. Mr. A. K. Macomber, an American owner, won both these Autumn handicaps in 1925 with Forseti " and l 1 Masked Marvel ".

The Queen Alexandra Stakes, a very popular race over 2 miles 6 fur. 85 yds, was won on six consecutive occasions 1929-34 by " Brown Jack ", Steve Donoghue up. The Queen Alexandra Stakes is by no means the longest flat race in the world ; this title is rightly claimed for the Prix Gladiateur run at Longchamp on the last Sunday in October, over 3 miles 7 furlongs. The most sensational event in horse racing is the Grand National Steeplechase run in March, at Aintree, Liverpool. There are 30 jumps, the water jumps being 15 ft. wide, and the distance is 4 miles 856 yards ; the race dates from 1839. The Jockey Club in England was founded in 1750, and the Stud Book created in 1791.

The first racing recorded in France was in 1651, in gardens at the Muette in Paris, N o organized meeting took place until 1 7 7 6 when races were arranged on the Plaine des Sablons, the site of the present Longchamp, which in 1857, was rented by the Sociktk d'Encouragement who built the famous course, and Napoleon Ill went from Paris by boat on the Seine t o inaugurate it the same year. The French rules on racing were drawn up in 1780; these, during the Revolution, had been completely forgotten. Napoleon I revived racing in 1805, but had a wrong opinion of the thoroughbred, for he officially proclaimed that the half-bred was i t s superior; weight was allotted according t o the horse's height and not for age o r merit. In 1 8 0 6 a Grand Prix was instituted and called successively Prix Royal, Grand Prix Royal, Grand Prix National, Grand Prix Imperial, Grand Prix de I'Empereur and since 1 8 6 9 Prix Gladiateur : therefore, the oldest race in France. The most famous French race is the Grand Prix de Paris; i t was for several years the richest race in the world. In 1 9 0 8 i t was worth t o Mr. W. K. Vanderbilt, owner of *@Northeast", over 400,000 gold francs. Run at Longchamp on the last Sunday in June over I mile 7 furlongs, i t was created in 1 8 6 3 and won that year by ' & T h e Ranger ", an English horse, in front of the famous French filly * * La Toucques ", the only filly t o have won both French Oaks and Derby. 1 4 English horses have won the Grand Prix; 64GalloperLight", g4Comrade'' and a6Lemonora"are the winners since the resumption of that race after the world war. Mr. Edmond Blanc, brother of Camille Blanc, of Monte Car10 fame, who raced very successfully for over forty years, won the Grand Prix on no fewer than seven occasions and in 1 9 0 3 his colts " QUO Vadis ", '' Caius " and Vinicius " filled the f i r s t

t h r e e places, a feat which w i l l stand for many years. In 1 8 9 9 he paid t h e colossal sum i n those days o f one m i l l i o n francs (about .('40,000) for t h e English D e r b y w i n n e r " Flying Fox ".

The formation of t h e Soci6t6 d'Encouragement i n N o v . 1 8 3 3 led to t h e creation o f t h e Jockey Club, t h e Stud Book, and later t h e classical races : t h e Prix dlEssai des Poulains i n 1 8 4 1 , des P o u c h e s i n 1 8 4 1 , the P r i x d e Diane i n 1 8 4 3 , t h e Prix d u Jockey C l u b i n 1 8 3 6 , t h e Grand Prix de Paris i n 1 8 6 3 . The Prix d u Jockey C l u b or French D e r b y was first r u n at Chantilly, and was w o n by a horse named F r a n k " o w n e d by L o r d H e n r y Seymour, t h e famous dandy, k n o w n in history as " M i l o r d rsouille ". T o t h e five classic races mentioned above t h e P r i x de I'Arc de T r i o m p h e was added in 1 9 2 0 . A u t e u i l (Paris), t h e most beautifully laid o u t steeplechase course, exists since 1 8 7 3 . The best k n o w n o f t h e many events r u n t h e r e are t h e G r a n d Steeple-Chase ( 6 , 5 0 0 metres), t h e Grande Course de Haies and t h e P r i x des Drags, which are r u n respectively o n Sunday, Wednesday and Friday o f t h e Grande Semaine at t h e end of June.
