Mother and Son and Etiquette

Dear Margery Doom;
Please answer this: My son has
been married a month. After their
trip. should they come to my house
of their own accord, or must we in
yite them? They seem to think We
should. dlc MY liiDl'
It seems a little absurd TO me that
such discussion should come up
between mother and son, unless
there was an estrangement.
1t would be natural for you 10 oe-
clare that they would be gladly
welcomed in your home. 6rloai
couples expect everybody IN gen
eral. and mothers in particular, to
make a fuss over them. So II l
we're you / wouldn't think about
the necessity of inviting my son
and his bride: I'd smile to myself
and say Come"

HATS AND SHOES
FOR TANGO TEAS

Differences of opinion about the
length of the skirt required for tango
teas exist at present.
But there is a feeling that while
short enough to display the essential
ly pretty shoe, the shortness must not
be too abbreviated or the effect of
elegance is at once lost.
AS for the tango tea hat whatever
be the chosen model, ultra piquancy
must be the note that is aimed at.
Black velvet millinery still carries
everything before it, and the main
point for success lies in the exquis-
itely right mode of adjustment on the
perfectly arranged couture.

My Trip to Lancaster

mer to visit my aunt She bought me
eight little chickens and little pet
dog. II was so cute. AS soon as we
got it it ran around and was so play.
full 1t was Scotch collie
My cousin said we would call it
Scot. We loved it so, and II grew up
fast. At night it would cry all tho
time at first; soon it got friendly, with
us and would not cry.
At night we would tie it to the
porch, and one time 1t hanged itself
and how it did cry. My aunt and
cousin and I thought it was cats or
dogs fighting, but when we saw what
it was we laughed aloud We had to
go outside and unite the rope. Three
months later Scot died, he was rue
over by a train.

We have the very incest times.

For they must go to other lands.

Those other little chaps
The naughty things they see me dof
Or teach the little Japs
Rude ways and manners learned from,
me?
/ do not know-perhaps!
Sometimes / disobey Mamma,
Or say an angry word:
And once 1 stole some speckled eggs
From little robin bird.

Such things of me had heard
And so ] mean to do my best,
To show each little day
How very good a boy can be.

Pleasant things to saw

known, but they are not often as
calm as the old lady that the Windsor
Magazine tells about.
An old man fell from second story

ious crowd Immediately gathered to
see whether he was seriously injured.
One OF her daughters rushed fran
tically into the first-f1oor room, where
bis wife sat knitting, and cried:
"Oh, mother, mother. Fathers fal-
