OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
Does 1t Pay to Be Neighborly

! Dotted all over our land there are
villages where the kindly country
ways are still enforced. There people
drop into each others houses at all
hours of the day and night in the
happy fashion of genuine friends. NO
one is ever too busy or too cold
bloodedly absorbed in his own affairs
and his search for money and position
to refuse a lift to a neighbor VINO
needs help over a rough place or sym
pathy with some one who is bursting
with good news he lust has to tell.
One of the tragedies of city life
| is that far, far too many of US nave
! learned to be cruelty suspicious of
people we don't know. and so are
afraid to give the benefit of the doubt
to folk about whom we have not an
absolute written guarantee of re-
spectability.
A few years ago in the Middle West
men used to boast that they always
believed a man honest unless he
proved himself a thief. But in the
! big cities the rule seems to be to be-
lieve people thieves until they prove
themselves honest! Can't we recover
some of the old neighborliness of
heart and spirit which will make 1t
| possible for us to give friendly
greeting to the people who live about
us? Can't we learn to feel that the
! joys and sorrows, the hopes and fears
and the moments, great and small,
of those who have been brought close
to us in the congestion of city life are
really close to our hearts too?
So many of US fear to be neigh
borly. We imagine our kindly mo-
tives will be questioned and our
| friendly impulses put down to all sorts
of self-seeking, cold-blooded, mercen-
airy or otherwise evil intentions.
Everyone in the world is more or
| less lonely-looking and looking for
understanding and sympathy. Can't
we bring little of the neighborliness
| of the country into our city life?

BY REATRICE FAIREA,

Are you one of the people who have
lived for ten years in a great apart
ment house and have no idea who oc-
cupies the floor above them, the floor
below, or, perhaps, even the apart
ment across tho hall?
Nowadays very few people are
friends with the folks next door"
The kindly little word in which peo-
pie shared the joys and sorrows of the
neighborhood has grown from sim
pie town ways to over -dignified city
ones.
Down in the village from which
your grandmother came you shared
whatever of good or ill came to the
people in the houses around and,
incidentally, their butter, or eggs,
when you happened to run short; and
there was a great deal of happy
warmth in hearts and manners.
City life has changed all this. Now
you don't know anybody until you've
been introduced, and, unless you want
to lose your social position, you put
on your hat and gloves when you are
going to the shop around the corner!
The chill, stiff, staring attitude of
the average fashionable street in Il
big city is calculated to make new
conner want to ehigrate back to the
country or even to the swarming slums
where everybody knows everybody
else.
There can be nothing more dis
heartening than the chilly state of
things which meets the family COM
ing in to the city from some warm
little village of ten thousand gossipy,
inquisitive, but altogether neighborly
and friendly people.
A Lofty Dignity
Sitting in lonely, lofty dignity and
Ignoring all the pleasant people about
you seems to be considered quite the
correct thing in the city. 1t isn't cor
rect-it's only dreary and foolish and
stodgy and altogether absurd.

may be made as it is on the figure or
with a square neck and without

course be desirable. For the school
frock, the treatment shown on the
figure is in every way desirable There,
a plaid wooden material is trimmed
with plain. Blue serge is pretty made
in this way, both for school and for
the gymnasium, and a great many
mothers will like to use the pattern
for linen and pique and gingham and
galatea and washable materials of
such sort. The bloomers also are
good to be used separately.
