MANNERS

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
1. At an informal dinner where
the salad is served with the main
course are salad forks used or is
the salad eaten with the dinner
fork?
2. At a wedding at high noon in
the home of the bride. where she
wears veil, is 1t necessary for
the bridegroom to he in full
dress, or is a Tuxedo appropriate?
Also the same question with refer
ence to morning church we'd
ding.
8. When a person expresses his
pleasure, after an introduction,
at having met you, Is '"Thank
you" the proper thing to say?

1. When the salad is served
are sometimes placed at the left
of the plate, but usually the salad
is eaten with the dinner fork.
With the main course it Is usually
regarded as another vegetable, and
is eaten as are the other vcge-
tables served with that course.
2. At formal high noon we'd
ding. the groom wears formal day
clothes: cutaway coat and dark
striped trousers. A tuxedo suit
is for informal evening wear
never before $50 or 7 o'clock in
the evening. This is true whether
the wedding is church or a
house wedding.

and polite statement-and then

of Lol1engrin. The mate instinct

Why, then, a world of sexually
unadjusted: unmarrieds, Divorces,
oft-marrieds, courtesans. loveless
marriage, childless marriages?
Endless kinds.
Two general observations: ~
Europe's population has doubled
in the last hundred years despite
the enormous losses from wars.
disease. infantile mortality, and
drains overseas. The mate-hunger
is not impotent. ~ We hear only
of the sexually- unadjusted. There
are millions of happily mated
couples in America who find no
fault with natures marriage laws
or those recorded in codes.
Now for the other side: the be-
havior of the mate.impulse. 1T
leads many to marry. The mar
rage fails: drunkenness, cruelty,
infideIity. desertion, etc. The
courts recognize many grounds.
Why does one man become a
drunkard, another beat his wife?
Marriage itself is no more respon-
sible for such misfits than Is
business for arson or banking Tor
defalcation. The man who beats
his wife probably beat his sister,
or his mother. The man who
drinks because or in spite OF his
wife would turn to drink under
any other situation to which he
could not adjust himself.
A larger mismated group Is
based on the polygamous habits
Of one or the other, generally the
man. In sowing wild oats he
scattered the energy with which
he was endowed to secure a mate:
and acquired the polygamous
habit. After marriage he may
acquire the homogeneous habit; he
may not--his motional nature will

Work will do it. Many boy is

Their energy left. His sex-impulse
is expended in life-impulse activi-
ties. Girls begin to find outlets
for their energy in action. in
sports and games, and in the
broader affairs Of life interests.
All.night dances can dissipate a
lot of energy for both sexes.
The boy or girl who for 10
years chases pleasure as the main
business Of life may be pure
but neither will be likely to &C.
ouire any socially useful habits
during that time. Both men and
women can become such habitual
flirts that they are abnormal;
they are sexual perverts.
The normal sex-complex can be
broken in many ways: dlsappolnt-
ment in love, no response on the
part of the mate, etc. The sex
complex thus becomes conditioned
to abnormal methods of response:
tendency to avoid or be disguised
under conditions which are neither
disgusting" nor to be avoided;
prudishness; sloppy sentimentality;
morbid interest in the externals
or accessories of sex conduct.
The sex complex thus comes to
mean for one individual one
thing: for another, quite some
thing else. 1t comes to be as
varied as behavior itself. What
it is at any one time depends On
the lessons it has learned; its ex-
perience, its habits. No man or
woman enters into marriage with
a sex complex slate on which

something has not been written.
Until recently, it was likely to be
too little on the part of the
woman, an ignorance so ingrained
that learning was painful; too
much on the part of the man,
more than he could rub off.
Foundations Of habits (Which
means character) are laid in
homes. Nine.tenths Of the girls
that enter juvenile courts leave
bad homes. AS Thomas puts it,
many a girl cannot be said to
fall, because she has never risen.
She is not immoral, but amoral.
The mate-hunger is turned into
love for adventure, clothes, thea.
ter, attention, distinction. freedom.
And some discover that the only
means they have to realize these
acquired appetites is their sex.
They use it as they would a
coin to buy advantages and pleas
ure. Thomas cites Dumas as say
ing that girls in Paris lost their
virginity as they lost their milk
teeth; they could give no plaus-
ible account of the loss.
Or they marry with that same
