PLANS INVASION.

TEHERAN. Dec. 2S.-England is
preparing to throw an army into
Southern Persia from Afghanistan and
Beluchistan as a result Of the attack
upon British consul w. A. Smart near
kazerun
The British foreign office has al
ready made representations to the
Persian government. that in view Of
the fact that Persia has shown her
inability to protect commerce over the
caravan routes in the south, more
stringent precautions than this coun.
try can make are necessary.
Although MIR. Smart was not killed.
as was at first reported, he
was wounded BY the attacking party
of Persians. Whether England will de-
mand indemnity to defray the cost Of
moving her army, If invasion ultimate
ly is carried out, is not indicated at
this time. If England chooses to fol-
low Russia's course, which is unlike
ly owing to the storm of international
protests. she will compel Persia to
defray the cost OF moving the army.

COUNTY COUNCIL TO
MEET JANUARY 9TH

The county council will be called
January S and among the matters to
be considered will be the expense
attached to the construction of a
bridge over the Whitewater river. No
final action by the council is antici-
pated at this meeting. and it is more
than probable the money will not be
appropriated for the structure until
next summer. However, the council
believes it best to keep in touch with
the condition of afafirs as each situa-
ton arises.
Appropriations will be made for i'm
provements which were started last
fall but uncompleted. Unless reap
propriated the unexpended money for
these uncompleted structures would
revert back to the treasury Sever
al bridge appropriations will be made.
and also small amount of money
for the completion Of the detention
hospital at the county Jail.

About Introducing People.


SO unfamiliar are many Americans
with the English rule that the roof
Is an introduction" that when one wo-
man speaks to another at some social
function there will be no reply. be-
cause she has not been introduced
Every woman should remember that.
no matter who she is or where she is
hurt her, and she should not lay her
self open to the very natural criticism
that she doesn't know enough to speak
when she Is spoken to. \ meeting Of
this kind does not necessitate fur
Their acquaintance. rs it may cease
when they leave the house of the
hostess.
Some people like to follow this for
eign custom of not Introducing their
guests to one another. feeling that the
mere fact Of their all being friends
and guests of the host and hostess is
sufficient introduction There is a
difference OF opinion. however. on this
subject. and most persons think that Il

ease and Introduce them when occA-
sion requires it.
There is Il difference between Il
formal and a casual Introduction. The
formal Introduction is made with il
deliberate purpose. The casual intro
ductiOn is made to save uwkwardnesS
and need not entail further ncUuaint-
ance. When formal Introduction is
made the hostess should always first
ask the privilege of making the intro
ductiou. This can be done in a very
unobtrusiye way. so that the one who
wishes 10 be Introduced knows moth
ing of the request.
In making an Introduction the man
is presented to the woman in this way.
Miss Johnston, may | present MI
Sears?" or Miss Jchnston. allow me
to present MIR. Sears or still another
expression is. Mrs Thompson. Mr.
Browning desires the honor Of know
ing YOU"
In introducing two women always
present the younger to the older.
1t Is correct for man to ask mu-
tual friend to present him to a woman
or young girl. and. as Il rule. the re-
quest is granted unless there is some
very good reason why the woman or
girl does not wish to meet this special
man.
Men rarely ask to be introduced to
each other, but If a woman wishes to
present two men to one another they
should never refuse the introduction.
For very formal introduction
bow. a pleasant smile and the words
How do you do, Mr.. So-and-so." or
How do you do. Miss Tor MrsJ So
and-so.' is sufficient, or one may mere
ly repeat the name of the person pre-
scented In an urdertone
If ono is DESTROYS of being less formal
it is correct to shake hands even ut Il
first Introduction. 1t is also correct to
say. II am so glad to meet you. Mr..
So-and So" or 1T is great pleasure
for me to meet you. Miss So-and-so."
but the expression. PLEASED to meet
yOu." Is not at all correct.
Men always shake hands when they
are introduced to each other.
