THE LETTER, NOT THE SPIRIT

POliteness is too often regarded as the letter of the law, and not it's spirit, so concluded a woman who recently took a seat at a table in a public library which. although there was nothing to distinguish it from the other tables in the reading room. had evidently been the seat of a young clerk. As he came to the ta- ble book in hand, he thus addressed the woman: Pardon me, madam, but you will have to move from this seat" That remark did not express the spirit of politeness, although the young man evidently thought he was observing the law by prefacing his command with the words pardon me" How much better it would have been for him to have said, for instance: I am sorry to trouble you, madam. but you have taken my seat by mistake"
