TO ENTER SOCIETY"

You must Have Treasure. Tsmpsra.
ment and Tact.
To enter paradise you had to be
good and you had to be dead. To
enter society you do not have to be
either. On the contrary. though what
you do have to be is harder to tell
than 1t is to get there. But certain
requisites may be mentioned. These
are treasure, temperament and tact.
Treasure. which Is the basis of all
scrumptiousness, speaks for itself.
Temperament is more complex. Tenn
permanent Is the art of holding your
own on the subject of nothing at all
with experts who have devoted their
lives to the subject. That is clearly
abnormal. Tact. while less unnatural.
is more abstruse. Tact is the ability
to put your vibrations into harmony
with those of others about you. AS.
pirants may be rich, righteous and
ready. yet II they lack that ability,
whatever their efforts. they are no.
where. II they possess 1t, then, though
they be nobodies. they have only to
choose where they want to go and get
there-generally speaking. that is. and
provided they are not in a hurry
