kin and persecution of others. Several
night hawks were condemned to the
gallows. but the supreme court re.
manded the cases and no one has been
hung to date. These conditions, ac-

yachts will keep near to the shore.

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

The eternal length of rainy Sun
day spent with a crowd of people who
were comparative strangers to each
other, impels me to a few remarks on
the art of general conversation.
If you want to be welcome on rainy
Sundays and similar occasions when
conversat ton is the chief amusement,
let me suggest that before you start
to tell any anecdote you ask YOURSELF
rs it intrinsically interesting? That
is, if it has no connection With my
self or my friends, will it still be worth
telling?' And if you can't say, Eyes, "
don't tell it.
I'VE often heard a bore defined as
q. person who talks about himself con-
tinually, but I don't think that's right.
I know people who talk about them
selves perpetually, but who are, never
theIess very delightful companions.
The point is they have had such inter
esting lives that what they tell about
themselves is intrinsically interesting,
that is, would be so even if it had no
personal connection.
Try also to lose the idea that a bare
statement, that you or some of your
friends have been to some particular
place or done some special thing, is a
good conversational coin
For instance, if a bright story about
newspaper life is told, there is always
someone to pipe up: "I have a friend
who was a newspaper man once. He
wrote the political news" or. if a pic
ture of some beautiful spot is being ad-
mired the same variety of bore volun-
teers the absorbing information. Il
was near there once when 1 was trav-
cling for a shoe factory. but it was our
busy season and 1 couldn't get the
time to go over
Remarks like that go well enough
with people who have reason to be
interested in you and your friends,
and where you have or haven't been;
but as general conversation with COM
parative strang ers-well, they re GER
tainlv counterfeit currency, which
only the obligation of politeness ever
makes people accept as the real thing.
Stories involving for their compre-
hension much knowledge of any sort
of some business or sport, or To-
cality, for instance-and told to peo-
pIe who do not possess that knowledge,
are another bad variety of converse
tional coin No one except a CONVEX
sational genius can give brief explana-
lions that really explain, and many a
story or incident that is perfectly
/ becomes an unmitigated bore when
loaded down with explanations and
foisted off on people who haven't the
ghost of an idea what it all means.
but who smile and say. Yes, yes, l
understand" just to get the agony over
with.
/ There is plenty of mutual ground on
I which even complete strangers, if they
! have average intelligence. can meet.
There are enough personal anec-
/ dotes in most of our lives that are in
/ trinsically interesting enough to be
/ told even to strangers.
There is almost always some special
/ common interest that any two or
three people can find to talk about.
If people would realize these posi-
bilities and limitations, and try to live
up to them. and within them, it seems
/ to me there would be far fewer bores
/ in the world.
