Good Manners Proclaim the Gentleman.
Good manners are q social obliga-
tion, and young man should never
make light of them or pass them over
as unworthy Of notice. The extreme
manners of the fop are silly and un-
necessary, but the way well-bred
man deports himself is always worth
a young mans closest study. Good
manners mean comfort for others and
the recognition of little social rights,
which to pass over is to degenerate.
Etiquette books cannot instil good
manners. Ones department comes
from within. Few men are born
without an intuitive knowledge of
what is simply experience that de-
velops the quality. To be good man.
nered generally means to have consid-
Grafton for women in every rank of
life, and that is a quality which
young men cannot possess too strong

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. - Chairman
Babcock Of the Republican congress.
Gonal committee said that the house OF

sociated Press Chairman Babcock said:
"There can be no longer any reason
able argument over the political com.

six more than enough to give us control.
These are straight Republicans and our
majority will be over the combined op-
position"
