Thank you for your courtesy" said a
woman to the younger woman who had
given up her seat in the trolley car to
her after she had seen that none OF the
men in her vicinity nor the woman who
accompanied by a small child occupied a
large space were willing to make any
effort to give the newcomer a chance to
sit down.
The younger woman had watched the
other make several well-nigE fruItless eff
forts to keep her feet-because she could
not reach the strap and realizing that
what was impossible for the other was
possible for her made the tender.
1t really was nothing very much for
the younger woman to do because she
had a strong 1.-THE body, was tall enough
rot to be discommOded by reaching for
the strap and she had already been
sitting down all day.
But the point is that the men who sit

women stand are Doors OF the most dis
agI eeable type. Not much more can be

have been standing on their feet all day
while at work to decline to give up their
seats in the cars for all but the aged,
sick, and women accompanied by little
children. There Is no particular harm in
young and healthy women hanging on to
the straps II the men can stand to take
the reflection made thereby. But there is
serious objection to any man unless he
is aged or sick holding to a seat in the
car II aged and sick women are thereby
compelled to stand.
Some men enter cars and occupy them
as il they owned them. They frown and
squint disapproval at any one who shows
even the smallest indication of tresDass-
ing on their reservation. and II they can't

said of the woman who persists in keep
ing small child In a seat for which
she has not paid while some footsore
oder person stands. And women are
about as liable to offend in this par
t:Cular as the men are in their way.
The other night going home a lot of
men in the end OF a car permitted a
woman and a child OF two or three years
to stand all of a distance OF mile or
so while they sat complacently gaping
at them or smiling as the jostlng of the
car shunted mother and child from place
to place as each struggled to keep their
feet. 1t might have been amusing to
these Doors, but it was not conclusive to
the safety OF either the woman or the
child.
The discourtesies one sees on the cars
are frequent enough to amount to almost
a scandal Old people made to stand
while strapping young ones sit, some
times so spread out along the seats that
two or three people are barred from the
slttings they might have but for the
selfishness OF the others
