Rising to the Occasion?

Rising to the Occasion?
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When meeting a woman who
is older than ones self, for the
first time, should the younger
one rise? To stand or not to
stand depending on the age of
the person you are meeting is
quite delicate.
When should it be done so
as not to offend anyone by
making them feel old? I am
twenty-five years of age.
w.
You are right. this is a
question that never seems to be
solved. Every new introduction
demands a quick thought and
decision as to whether or not
we should rise.
When a man is introduced to
a woman, she definitely doesn't
rise, unless the man is an elderly
distinguished gentleman to
whom she wishes to show special
honor. When you are introduced
to a woman of about your age.
you needn't rise, although, OF
course, you may, if you wish.
But concerning this question
of your rising when you are in.
troduced to an older woman,
only a superficial minded woman
would interpret this gracious
compliment unattractively.
If, when we rise to acknowl-
edge an introduction, we make
the other person feel DID,"
then there must be something
the matter with our rising and
with the manner and mood of
our acknowledgment. If we have
a fixed idea in our minds that
this is the attitude that will be

taken by the other person, then
of course we bring about that
attitude.
But if our manner is an "ac.
cuStomed" one, if we are gra-
cious in the way we rise and the
words we say in acknoWledg.
ment, then this is reflected and
the other person realizes the
compliment.
So, dear friend, cultivate your
own graciousneSs of manner SO
that it will inevitably be cor
rectly and charmingly inter-
preted and everyone whom you
meet will say, What a charm
ing person she is. . so well-bred
and graciouS!"
Seating the Dinner Guests
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Will you kindly settle this
argument?
A says if you are giving a
dinner party for more than
four, the host keeps his place
at the table but the hostess
gives up her seat and sits at
the right of the guest of honor.
B says the hostess keeps her
accustomed seat and the guest
Of honor, if a gentleman, sits at
the left of the hostess, and if
a lady at the right of the host,
regardless of how many are at
the table.
Who is correct? KATHRINE.
The man guest Of honor sits
at the right of the hostess, and
on her left sits the man given
the second place of honor. The
woman guest Of honor sits at
the right Of the host, and on his.

ond place Of honor.

Alagna said he got up a petition
which various secondary officers on

Fourth Officer Hackney was willing
to sign, only if other of-tcers signed.
Finally, at Hackney's request, Alag

He told of an interview by strik-
ers with the late Captain Robert
Willmott, who said the matter was
one for the Ward line to settle.
Officials Of the Ward line, he
said, met the strikers as they left
the ship and they tried to talk it
over "but we got nowhere"
They later accused us of delay

was not true.
Later an official of the Ward
Line told us he agreed with our de.
mands for higher wages, for the
same privileges as extended to other
officers, for cessation of inquisition

time we left the ship. We also asked
that three radio operators be put on

that their work on ship be restricted

OJUS, Fla, Sept. 20. W.R)-"May

This, and many similar questions
will be asked this fall in the Ojus

A plan by which school children
may trade in home grown vegetables
and farm products for hot lunches
has been worked out by Mrs. Alise

The plan, she explains, will insure
against mal-nutrition among stu

the lunches.
County educational authorities
were so delighted over the plan that
they will extend it to other rural
schools, if it proves successful.
