ETIQUETTE
Dear Miss Flo:

Dear Miss Flo:
Is it proper for lady to take her
escorts arm when walking with him
in the daytime? When walking with
two ladies should a gentleman walk
between them or on the side nearest
the curb. Should gentleman take the
ladies arm when crossing a street?
Thank you. CT.
A laly should not take gentleman's
arm when walking with him in the
daytime unless she is infirm or elderly.
1t is only after dark that she does so,
and then she merely places her hand
within the curve of his elbow. (2)
When walking with two ladies the gen
tleman always walks nearest the curb.
If it is in the evening, he offers his
arm to the elder lady. (3) 1t is never
correct for the gentleman to take the
lady's arm If he thinks she needs his
assistance, he should offer his arm.
| Lear MISS RIO:
When it is necessary to remove Z
bone or seed from the mouth, should
it be done with fingers Or fork.
Thank you, E.G
A bone or a seed should be remov,
ed from the mouth with spoon or {
fork-neVer with the fingers.
Dear Miss Flo:
When dining with gentleman who
should do the serving if the waiter
does not? Who should serve the te;
or coffee?
Thank you, MS
The gentleman usually does the ser
wing. The lady should offer to pou
the tea or coffee, as this seems to b.
the feminine feature of the dinner.
Dear Miss Flo:
Should dry cake be eaten with the
fingers or with fork? (2) Is it prop
er to shake hands with a gentleman
when taking leave? (3) Sh0n'd lumt
sugar be taken with the cof:oe spoor
or fingers when there are no tcngs:
Thank you, A. F
Cake should be eaten with a fork
| (2)It is proper to shake hands with &
gentleman if you care to do so. But
if the meeting has been very casual
one, it is not usually done. A hostess
in her own home always extends her
hand to all of her guests as they leave
(3) Lump sugar should be taken with

BALTIMORE PIKE
HAS BECOME
RUM ROAD
Highway Crowded With Cars
OF BootIeggers Who FIaunt
Wares, Say Motorists.

Motorists travelling the Baltimore
pike declare the highway to be
crowded by bootleggers' cars.
Many OF the garage men along
the route know them, 1t is said, and
can easily identify them. The
charge is made that men along the
highway are actively aiding the
bootleggers by warning them when
suspicious motoring parties appear
on the road.
Motorists who have taken the
trouble to do a little investigating
declare that in many instances the
bootleggers take little precaution to
hide their cars contents.
In many cases, it is asserted,
liquor carried is barely covered
with strips Of burlap.
Counts II Cars.
Last night / counted seventeen
cars on the road between here and
Baltimore, which I have every rea-
son for believing were being op-
Grated by bootleggers," said one Of
the motorists using the highway
several times each week.
Il pulled up alongside of one car
at garage and saw the driver
readjusting the burlaps covering
several cases Of liquor. While
getting the gas he asked the man
at the pump il he had seen a GER
tain car and was told, laughingly,
that 1t had gone on to Washington
an hour before loaded, with truck
trailing. They both laughed. They
looked me over and I heard the
garage man explain who was and
the firm I represent. The boot
logger NODDED his head satisfied.

ington nightly"
The belief that liquor is being
brought into the city over side
roads and cowpaths. it was said, is
entirely wrong. According to the
motorists, liquor is plentiful in
Baltimore. Much Of it is reaching
that port in ships engaged in the
fruit trade and clearing from
Bermuda and other island ports.
The liquor now reaching Washing
ton, 1t is said, is drawn from such
stocks.
In local bootleg circles there has
been considerable increase of
stocks during the past ten days.
