IL what you say il exact the
phenomenon must of course have

not know how nearly universal
the habit Of the left turn may
be, and so I cannot give q def.
mite answer to your question.
If it is practiced in some places
and not in others, it must evil

cumstances or tradition. II, on
the other hand, It is common all
over the world, then 1t arises
from some universal physical or
mental cause.
/ wiz add what may seem fan.
tastical-if 1t should be estAb-
lished that the left turn is uni.
versal in the Northern Hemisphere
of the earth and the right turn
in the Southern Hemisphere--a
relation would then appear to
the effects Of the rotation OF the
earth on its axis, which causes
the northern cyclones to .reVolye
to the left, or against the motion
of the hands Of a watch, and
the southern ones to revolve to
the right.
Queer Turns
This tendency theoretically af.
fects all motions over the earth's
surface. But, curious az 1t may
appear, after what has just been
said about the rotation OF
cyclones. it acts toward the right
in the Northern Hemisphere and
toward the left In the Southern.
It is often asserted that 1t causes
northern rivers to eat into their
right-hand banks, but while the
theory is correct the observation
of it's actual effects is difficult.
A little diagram instantly shows
why the right-hand tendency re-

storm, in a left-hand turn. The
falling barometric pressure at the
center causes the air to start
flowing radially inward from all
around. The earth's rotation de-

of their original course toward
the center.
The combined result is a rota.
tion Of the whole set Of winds

center. A diagram for the South.

rotation to the right.
1t may be worth while to re.
mark that the way to distinguish
the direction OF turning In circls
Is to place yourself, actually, or
in imagination, at the center OF
the circle. Then, in whatever
direction you face, a motion In

INTRODUCING
A FRIEND
Mrs. Cornelius BeeckmanI

NTHEN q girl passes boy
W friend on the street who
should say ''hello" first?
2. When q girl is introduced to
a young man what must she
say? MARIE.
The lady is always given the
privilege OF acknowledging ac-
quaintanceship with a gentleman.
Therefore. the boy should wait
for the girl to speak first. And,
unless she Is very young girl,
she should not always use Hello"
for her greeting. This is in.
formal, ofIcourse, and she should
use 1t only for informal greetings.
For more dignified greetings. she
should use How do you do"
2. A girl should never be In
troduced to a man, young or old,
Marie! A gentleman is always
introduced to lady. How DO
you do?" is always the correct
phrase to use in acknowledging
an introduction-for all people at
all times.
MY DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
When a lady wears a esuit, is
it proper for her to remove her
coat when inside or would 1t be
improper. as for a man?
ANXIOUS.
It is proper to remove her coat,
although it is true that many fas-
tidious women consider it Inn
proper, or at least better form,
not to remove their suit-coats
when they are dining in a restau-
rant.
MY DEAR MRS BEECKMAN:
wi If two boys and two girls
are walking four abreast, that
is, in one straight line, what
is the position of the two boys?
E. r. T.
When two boys and two girls
are walking four abreast. one
boy should walk on the side of
the pavement nearest the curb
and one should walk on the in
side. This will surely carry out
the idea of protection of the
girls, which is the idea of the
rules for walking on the street!
DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
After lady has finished dane
ing with a man should she say
II enjoyed that dance" or II
enjoyed dancing with you?
JUST-SO.
Eiether Is correct, but the sec.
ond comment, since it is more
personal, is perhaps to be more
recommended. But even so, the
first one says the right thing
for certainly you could not enjoy
a dance unless you enjoyed
dancing with your partner!

is probably because Of this intelll.

When q child is born. q medi-
cineman Is summoned, and he
beats Nfor hours on his drum to
frighten the evil spirits away,
thus insuring good luck for the
baby. After he is about six days
old--in the case OF q girl, when
she is four 'days--he is taken
away from his mother and ''aban-
doned" on the roadside. How.

neighbcr. who picks him up and
returns him to his mother. From
now on the neighhor is the child's
godmother. After the child can
