Social Amenities for the School Girl
Promiscuous acquaintance should no
| carefully avoided by all girls who wish
] 70 nave or maintain a good social nosi
lloh. it Is so easy to make friends and
/ SO difficult TO drop them, if necessary
| that one cannot be too careful about
/ the beginning.
/
lar as to their daughters resent more
| man thar their young people should he
| introduced to persons for any reason nm
| desirable socially. If a girl comes homo
/ meeting there others of whom the elders
from the house of another and tells of
dlsapproye, the parents are likely in the
| future to be chary of permitting their
daughters going to that house. For this
reason alone girl cannot be too careful
| as TO who are her friends. else She will
md herself dropped by many whom sbe
| would like to know and obliged TO asso
clate with others by no means desirable.
Making friends slowly is one of the
| shrest ways OF avoiding undesirable ac-
quaintances. To rush into an intimacy
| with girl at school because she is
| good run, or has a motor ar Soma
thing of the like. leads later to all sorts
of complications. If two girls who like
each other make their advances slowly
they are likely to lay the foundation for
| friendship that will last for wears Nv
Keeping the acquaintance upon a formal
basis for time they have a chance to
learn the characteristics of each, their
| likes and dislikes. If they find after
time, that they are not as congenial as
was at first thought it is possible TO
withdraw quietly from future inter-
course without the feelings being hurt
and to have only mere bowling ac-
both sides.
While every girls likes that her friends
shall feel free to come and go in her
home. the line between friendship and
| familiarity should be very clearly de-
| fined, There is little formality of man
ner' or reservation, that is better never
lost, and then the vulgar error of being
familiar will not be committed.-Ne

MY Friends Servant.
A disgruntled reader of The Bazaar.
who certainly has cause for her grief,
tells a tale of woe which will touch
many feminine hearts. Her best friend
she says (her friend no longer since this
decd, deliberately enticed from her a
faithful maid who had been in her en-
ploy for years, by offering her less work
and larger wages. She wishes The Ba-
Ears editorial opinion of this action and
similar ones suffered by her friends, and
she asks if there is legal or moral re-
dress for such social crime.
There is no legal redress. A maid
however faithful and long employed. is
| free to go where and when she pleases
1t rests with her employer TO keep her
busy and contented, and how difficult the
latter achievement is thousands of anx-
ious home-makers can testify. As to the
ethical aspect of the case. there can be
little difference of opinion among high
minded women. A woman who will lure
away her friends maid. obviously lacks
certain ideals of human intercourse, and
there is reason to suspect that she may
be equally lacking in other qualities on
which fine friendships are built. She is,
therefore. not a desirable friend, and, in
the opinion of the writer, the victim was
| justified in disseminating her acquaint-
ance. That IS the only redress in these
conditions. But there is no doubt that if
it were legal offence, and if the often
der came before jury of twelve house
mothers, the punishment would be made
| to fit the crime-and it would be heavy
| ndeed.-Harper's Bazaar.

Partnership in Marriage.
One thing women want in marriage,
| that here in America, for all their desire,
they have not universally obtained. The
French woman has it far more generally
than her American sister, and it may be
| to this cause that we may attribute the
thrift and prosperity, the immunity from
grinding want of the average French
| family of the middle class. The Ameri-
can husband still holds the family peck
etbook and dispenses to the American
wife her spending money, whether it be
for personal use or for household puc-
poses. Don't forget to give me some
change, dear, before you go away, is
| the gentle plea of countless wives in the
| hurried morning when the husband is
rushing off to meet his business engage
ment. The fact that the wife leaves the
| plea to the final moment shows how she
hates to make it. What American
women, in city and country alike, pas
sionately wish for is entire frankness on
the part of husbands as to the amount of
| the family income, and fair division of
responsibility as to expenditure. The
American wife should not be in the posi-
| ton either of an INDUCED child or a Ii
censed mendicant. She may be trusted
not to waste the family income, not to
spend money foolishly. not to plunge
! her husband recklessly into debt if only
| she can be fully trusted. If !. be true
that many married women envy their
single sisters who are in receipt of bust
| ness earnings, the condition is easily ex-
| plainable. A woman who before mar
riage earned her own money and regu-
| lated her own expenditure finds it far
| from pleasant to ask for every penny she
wants and 10 have to render an account
! of its disbursement. The day is advanc-
! ing, if | am not mistaken. when the bride
| before her marriage will have settled
