SIDE TALKS
BY RUTH CAMERON
Formally VS.. Familiarity
BY RUTH CAMERON

Had Never Spoken Her First Name.
I tried the other day to remem Der
the first name of woman who was
once my close friend-and could not
because I had never spoken it,
A little formality keeps people
from getting too close to each other
too soon. You know what a familiar
ity does and that is especially true of
a quick familiarity. Haven't you ever
had friends with whom you were %
delighted that you rushed" them.
And didn't you feel sorry afterwards
that you didn't let the intimacy ripen
more slowly?
Friendships Should Ripen Slowly.
Emerson speaks of the danger of
sucking sudden sweetness" from
friendships. It is a danger which Ill
young people are prone to run. Friend
ships; like fruit, want to ripen slowly
to be the more perfect. The fruit that
ripens suddenly is apt to have a false
heart.
Even between husbands and wives I
believe in more stiffness and formal
ity" than there usually is It may
serve as cushion to keep the two per-
sonalities from getting too close, and
perhaps save little of the inevitable
friction Of their daily life together.
I Think Husbands and Wives Might
Be Less Familiar.
I wonder what my critic who OBJ
5ected to my calling a years friend
Mrs." would say if she realized that
oftentimes our great grand-mothers
called their husbands Mr.. So
and-so. I do not mean that
mality, but I do believe that hus-
bands and wives should respect each
others privacy more; knock before
entering a closed door; never open
each others letters; each let the
other alone more; not try to make
the other talk when he wants to
read, not intrude on the thoughts bv
asking what he OR she Is thinking
about when he chooses to be silent
Gas have heard some husbands and
wives do).
The union of spirit will only he
the closer and sweeter If each re-
spects the others individuality and
allows him as much freedom Of ner-
sonality as possible.

When came down stairs I found
Dicky looking ruefully at the living

Since then both my mother-in-l law

by Cousin Agatha's verbal attack upon
