How to Be Real English
By wINIFRED BLACK.

~ HE English newspapers are having
fine time worrying about the
dreadful americans these days.
Such voices, such manners, such crea-
lures altogether"
And Mrs. Davenport Of New York,
is in print in defence of our sisters,
and our cousins and our aunts, and
our uncles. and all the rest of the
family
The trouble in Europe" says Mrs.
Davenport. is that the old-fashioned
woman is too well remembered. The
quiet dignified Americans are not
noticed in Europe, they are taken for
English Oh, what relief Taken
for English-only fawncyI
And yet it is very easy to be taken
for English, even in England. All
there is to do is to be rude and just
a bit snobbish to those beneath you
or more than a trifle ObseQuiOus to
those above you; never answer any
well-meaning stranger who dares ad-
dress a harmless remark to you
Never travel firstclass, it costs
money. Wrap up in NANCY rug and
freeze-like an EngliShman.
Don't have a fire in your bed sitting
room, only American Founders do that
sort Of thing Wear bed socks over
your shoes; tie up your poor head In
a knitted scarf ike BIduulld uS6u ~
make; perhaps some Bally Yankee
may take pity on you and invite you
in to sit by his fire where you can
watch the really dreadful way he
fuses over his poor wife and makes
her take the warmest seat-Only fancy
and sits in the draught himself.
Isn't it amusing2
When you meet a Frenchman, glare
at him-he isn't English
Never miss a chance to tell a Ger
man what bOOr he must be to be Ger
man
When you hear two Italians speak
ing in liquid music. smile at another
Englishman and lift contemptuous eye
brows over the language of Tasso.
That's English.
If you are a man, wear clothes that
look as if they really belonged to your
giant big brother, have a coat that
rides UP in the collar, put on boots
that weigh a ton more or less, throw
away that good cigar, get a pipe ana
smoke it all over the place, women or
no women.
