And Callers
Consid era tion of
Guest and Hostess
First Essential.
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. PosT-often mother
and offer to drive friends home
from church or from the movies and
frankly, when we stop in front OF
their houses, we never know what to
do to get them to say good night more
quickly. AS I am a young girl (and
the driver, there doesn't. seem to be
much I can do. but mother says what
ever you suggest will be enforced.
Answer: The fact that you are a
young girl makes it not only pos
sible." but good manners really require
that you 60 around and open the door
for them and help them to alight. If
there is a man in the party and you
couldn't get out to open the door, you
might keep the motor running rapidly
and your hand on the gear lever, as If
ready to start the car-and hope for
the best. There is really little else you
can do-except perhaps to develop the
old-fashioned quality known as pa
tience.
Dear Mrs. Post-Our new young
clergyman came out in the country to
see me last week and was not at
home. have been a member of this
same church for years, but feel that I
should recognize his call since he IS
the first minister in our church who
has spared the time to come so far.
Is there something I might do for him
personally since he has no family
here?
Answer: Next time you see him in
church tell him how sorry you we're
not to have been at home and how
much you appreciated his coming. If
you are not likely to see him for
some time, then you might write him
a note instead and perhaps invite him
| to dinner.

Dizzy's Donkey Downs Daffy
Persuaded to Round Bases After Elder Dean

Donkey base ball is that hilarious

Donkey base ball is that hilarious
game in which all players except
the pitcher and catcher are re-
quired to ride stubborn and bucking
burros while playing. 1t was Dizzy
himself who scored the winning
run when he knocked one of Paul's
offerings into center field. He
finally got to third aboard his
donkey, named Lord Plushbottom,
and then spurred his charge across
home plate after Dusty Rhodes of
the Red Sox, playing at third,
failed to give Paul the proper CO.
operation on a play designed to get
Dizzy. But 1t wasn't Dusty's fault.
His steed suddenly developed
fallen arches, tossing the Red Sox
player to the ground.
Dizzy's ride around the circuit
wasn't as simple as it seems. In
fact. at one point he took out a
pencil and paper and tried to prove
to his donkey the theory that a
straight line is. the shortest dis
tance between two given points.
The donkey, however, couldn't un-
derstand.

Red Sox was the fourth major

While Griffith. as usual. declined to
divulge the terms, it is understood
Bolton received a considerable boost
in salary. Cliff and Mihalic boosted
the signed Nationals. excluding Man
ager Bucky Harris, to nine.
Nothing has been heard from any
others excepting Sid Cohen and Leon

Chattanooga. They have squawked
about terms offered. They mean so
little to the club, though, that the
