Dancing
BY EMILY POST.

nEAR Mrs. Post: My family is 60
ing to give q dance for me when
I get home from school, If We can
manage to get list Of dancing young
people. have been away at board
ing school ever since I can remember,
because my parents have spent much
time travelling about the world on
my fathers business. Can We get
such list somewhere, and II so. may
we in good taste invite people we
don't know? You understand, Mrs.
Post, We do know best people all
over the world, but this list includes
SO few younger people where We now
live
unknown younger members of the
families whom your family has
known. You can also send invita-
tons to special friends of your own
best friends" who, II necessary, ex-
plain why they were included. But
you can't just 60 and invite names
in the Social Register or the tele-
phone book.
My Dear Mrs. Post: Must a stag
have been introduced to a girl in
order to cut in on her partner at a
dance? I mean, Is not the fact that
they both have been asked by the
same hostess proper introduction"
Answer.-At a dance of any size, a
man must have been introduced TO
the girl he cuts in on. At q dinner
or at q very small party OF q dozen
or so, the roof of q friend serves rs
an introduction.
Dear Mrs. Post: When a boy asks
a girl to fraternity or club dance, at
which dance cards are to be used, are
cards supplied for both boys and
girls? We have never used dance
cards at our parties, and as this is a
custom not very much in use since
we have grown up. will you explain
its good points? We believe it will
add a little more pleasure to the
evening than that ever-annoying
stag line"
Answer.-Each boy fills in, before
hand, the card of the girl who is his
guest. He puts his own name down
for the first dance, the last dance
and the dances before and after sup
per. And then he and his classmates
exchange the other dances. John
Jones speaks for the second waltz
with Tom Browns best girl and Tom
writes her name on the card John is
filling. Obviously the boys have to
keep cards of their own, too; how else
would they know to whom each dance
was pledged? The best point of a
dance card Is that those who like to
dance together can dance without in
terruption-which Is impossible for
any but worst dancers otherwise. An
other good point Is that the end of
the dance brings release from worst
dancer-also impossible to hope for
otherwise!

TO GO deeply into the history Of this
name is to conjure up the ancient
days Of Rome, in fact, the Last Days
of Pompeii," for the name was orig
inally spelled Pompile and is of Latin
origin. 1t has also been spelled POM
pale, Pompilly, Pumpilly, Pumpely.
The family can be traced to Avignon.
This family in America Is numerous
in New England and in New York
State, the first settler having been
John Rumpelly, who came to Massa-
chusetts in 1720. He was the son Of
Jean Pumpelly, whose father was said
to be French Huguenot.
John Pumpelly of New York, born
in 1927, was an officer In the French
and Indian Wars, stood next to Gen.
Wolf when he was killed, and was
himself wounded at the same time.
This John is credited with having
saved the life of the noted Israel Put

" ONGLEGS THE HERON was

wary. To be wary, you know,
- is to be suspicious Of possible
danger and so avoid running
unnecessary risks. When a Hawk
had swooped at Grandfather Frog the
latter had made a long, beautiful dive
into the mud at the bottom Of the
Smiling Pool. He knew Hawks and
their ways. He had had lot OF ex-
perience with them.
Il won't need to stay here more
than q few minutes" thought he as
he slid out of sight In the soft mud.
That fellow won't hang around

his way to hunt somewhere else"
Now, that is exactly what Longlegs

Frog would think, so the willy old fell

to be ready to catch Grandfather Frog

He was right in part. Grandfather
Frog didn't know that he was at the

Hawk. So far as he knew, there was
no reason whatever why he shouldn't
return almost at once. But Grand

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE wv. SPROwLs.
Two Sorts of Experiences.

Two Sorts Of Experiences.
EVERYTHING that has taken place
in your mental world may be
summed up under two types Of ex-
periences. These are the receptive ex-
periences and the expressive expert
ences. In other words, getting infor-
nation and doing things. Some per-
sons specialize on one. some on the
other. That's why you find quiet and
active types of personality.
The quiet type becomes the archi-
tect of civilization. He lays out the
plans for peace and war. He en-
visions the growth Of empire. He
trades In money, plans cities and
bridges; liz the first to catch on to
the meaning Of law, the prospects OF
political parties and Industrial de-
velopments. He is the director Of the
destinies Of peoples. He thinks when
alone.
The active type Is the manual Ia
borer of the world. the actual fighter
of battles, the real builder of rail-
roads, the master of the crafts and
trades. He goes to the movies 10
times as often as the receptive type.
He thinks when he sees action.
These types are not born. They
only appear so. You can make one
or the other out of almost any Swear
old.

THE mud cats looks are greatly

habits do not add to his rep
l. utation. In fact, all catfish
are rather ugly and certainly
they are not to be handled without
gloves. Anglers know they are good
fighters, but do not furnish thrill
by being leapers, too.
There are many kinds of catfish
In the United States Where they
used to be unknown. they have been
introduced successfully. They are of
commercial Importance, and millions
of pounds are caught to supply the
market demand. This, of course, does
not take into account the thousands
OF pounds caught by individual
anglers.
One Of our best-known catfishes is
the bullhead. The blue catfish is well
known. Among the cats it is the
largest. 1t is not so given to living
in muddy waters as most Of the other
species, and Is found in the swift,
clear streams. Further, it feeds on
other fishes and crayflsh. Many
kinds of bait will entice it, and its
determined efforts to free itself makes
1t fish worth angling for.

andoah tourney cane to Kenwood q
few days ago and took the cup home
leaving behind him the news that an
other tourney Is being planned for
late in August, with a purse which
probably will total about $3.50.
Houghton, fitted out with new con-
tract which relieves him of financial
worry IN his tournament play, has
decided to pass up the Bedford
Springs tourney early in August to
play In the Canadian open. The gent
who backs him financially, none
other than Whitley" Price, has asked
Houghton to play at Toronto in the
Canadian.
Further word along the professional
front brings the news that the Bobby
Jones tournament at Augusta is going
to be played again next year, the
dates to be April 4, 5, 6 and 7. Ap-

THERE is no rivalry between the
two clubs, but Indian Spring is
looking forward to a possible
match with Kenwood in the coming
Maryland State Association team
matches to be played in the Fall.
Kenwood, with a victory over the
Glenwood public links team from
Richmond behind it, claims to have
a strong aggregation and gestures
have been made toward team match
with Indian Spring. Tom Belshe,
Indian Spring Golf Committee chair
man, says the matter may be ironed
out in the Fall.
Virginia Pope, former District girls
champion, today is after the l8-hole
women's record for the Kenwood

first nine which she played in 80,
