and more than held his W with
some of the best welters in the mat

from a list Of more than a dozen
submitted.
The weller king is being brought
here in an attempt 70 arouse inter-
est in the wrestling game, and in the
event the match draws we'll, others
are to follow, Mr.. F~reudenstein said.
Matsuda is we'll known wherever

Mr.. Walkers Table Manners.

TINE Campbells we're coming to
dine. Doris Walker, who was
engaged to young Bob Campbell,
had laid the table with ex-
uuisite care. The china and the
snowy whiteness of the table linen was
beautiful to see. Surely the fast1dlous
Campbells could find no fault here.
This, then, was not causing the little
worried pucker of Doris brows. Nor
was it this that made her nervously
move the modest centerpiece of carna-
lions so often that her brother told her
if she touched it again it would up and
bite her.
The disturbing thought was dad and
his table manners. They were terrible,
she was telling herself, something terri
BILE! She'd told him as much thou
sand times. But it did no good. He
would eat with his knife, willy nilly!
Knives" dad would always retort to
all criticism. "were made long before
forks. In fact. I can remember when
forks came into common use myself.
I was quite a little shaver at the time
and many whaling I got for not
taking kindly to 'em. Well, I never did.
Food don't taste as good picked up
with one. And I won't use one. Put
that in your pipe and smoke i'll"
Doris had thought of going down on
her knees and imploring him, for just
this once, to mind his manners. But
she knew what he would say to such an
appeal.
It won't put on Tugs for any man,
least of all Bob Campbell. tell you
knew him when he didn't have a
nickel. If you don't like my table act,
you don't have to have me at all. I'll
stay downtown, where I pay for my
dinner and it's nobody's business If
drink my soup and eat with my
fingers" This would be his ultimatum
If it were only possible to serve a
menu consisting wholly of soft solids
and liquids, then there would be no
reason for anybody to use knives. Since
neither the Walkers nor the Campbells
were invalids, this was out of the ques-
ton. All Doris could do was wear the
little wrinkle in her forehead and sigh
when she wondered what the elegant
Mr.. Campbell would think Of the ILL
hammered Mr.. Walkers method OF
"shoveling in his food.
The Campbells came promptly, anc
almost Immediately dinner was served
The chicken was done to turn; the
potato like heavy whipped cream. And
Mr.. Campbell loosely remarked after
his third cup that any girl who could
make coffee like that was a prize and
his son was lucky to win her.
Doris ate nervously, with her eye on

THE EVENING STORY

her father. She gave little gasp when
she saw him take up his fork Was he,
after all, going to play up for her sake?
AS dinner progressed he continued to
shun his knife, except when he should
use it legitimately. She saw him peck
ing daintily at his mashed potato and
conveying his creamed carrots and peas
to his mouth in the approved manner.
A warm little glow began to spark in
her heart. Dear old daddy!
At that moment she heard him adj
dress Mr.. Campbell.
Come, come! You haven't eaten
anything yet, man! Pass up your plate!
Carrie, give him some coffee! You're
dining, not dieting!"
She saw him pile Mr.. Campbell's plate
high with food; saw her mother fill
his empty cup to the brim. Wondering
how he was ever going to eat so much
and live through it, she kept her eyes on
him, and for moment forgot to watch
her father.
She saw her future father-in-law
reach for his knife, and then-horror
of horrors!-it couldn't be, but.
his knife when he should have used his
fork! "Shoveling in his food" as she
had often accused her father of doing.
| BY the time dinner was over Doris
realized that not once had dad
| touched his knife when he shouldn't.
On the other hand, she recognized the
| fact that Mr.. Campbell had had no use
for anything but knife from start to
finish.
A strained silence fell upon the
Walker family after the Campbells had
gone.
"I think" said mother, breaking it
at last, that the party was success.
And Mrs. Campbell is charming-sim-
ply charming
Dad went to the radio and turned it
off.
Eyes, everything was perfect. agreed
Doris. 1.-THE food was delicious
Perfect" interrupted dad; perfect,
with Bob Campbell eating with his
knife? How come. I'd like to know?
1t would have been anything but pe--
feet if I'd done it. Well, I didn't do
it. What's more, l never will again.
After seeing him perform, I'm through
for life. You can do your missionary
work with him from now on. Dor. He
needs it. I'm converted. and / won't
backslide either-so help me, John
Rogers!"
