CHIvALRY BECOMES RARE
AMONG EUROPEAN MEN
Outraged Woman Writer Deplores
Retrogression Since War Among
People Of Best Families.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
BERLIN. November 1-European
men of the best families have since
the war retrograded in gentility. even
to the extent of losing the art of
gracefully kissing a lady's hand, and
they stand about drawing rooms with
hands in their pockets in a manner
which reminds Mrs. Wanda Jeus
Rothe of "a lot of benevolently in
clined Turkish Pashas, who are quite
willing to be amused by their pet
harem wives"
This outraged writer gives vent to
her opinion in a long article in the
Hanover Courier Lamenting the dis
appearance of chivalry from European
society. and attributing this chiefly
to the swell-headedness, which has
sprung up among men of all classes
since the war, she says that while
American women are enjoying the
comforts of riding about on balloon
tires, their European sisters are be-
ing oppressed by the male swell
heads" who have lost all traces of
good manners.
1T is nothing strange, nowadays"
declares the writer. ito see men who
regard themselves as drawing room
