Excerpt from All Happy T IS not difficult to be happy when everything is going along smoothly. But no man can be happy whose guests are growling because they are so badly served; whose help are discontented, and suspicious each man of his fellow; whose exchequer often suffers the loss, not only of the profit on the wine and the bird served his guest, but, of the entire cost of the dinner itself, for the fowl might as well have flown out of the window with all its trimmings, side-dishes, entrees and desserts, so far as his ability to account for the loss of them is concerned. It is, indeed, difficult to make things go smoothly\ in a large hotel or restaurant Where hundreds, often thousands of meals are served daily; and every portion of every meal must be scrupulously accounted for. The interests of the house must be rigorously guarded; the system of accounting must be kept simple - complicated accounts mean extra expense; the waiter's rights must be respected if good men are to be retained, and more im portant than all, the guest must be pleased. This book explains how the Kuhn Checking System contributes to the happiness of all who own, serve or patronize hotels and restaurants of the higher class, large or small.
