recognized as conventional. But many
moderns prefer to keep on the left of
the girl rather than to cross over every
time they change curb-side. Although
man with two women never walks
between them, he does quite possibly
sit between them at the theater -
unless their seats are on the aisle -
and he is likely to sit between them
on the back seat of car.
Behavior in church is much more

they should walk up the aisle quietly

first and he would follow. He would
find the hymns for her and the prayers
perhaps, and then give her the book.
There would be no impropriety in

book; but they should not talk nor
in any way show inattentiveness.

An hour after Renee talked to
Stuart at Davidson's Studio that
morning - while they were doing a
back of the legs shot for Sheer-Silk -
somebody else wanted her on the
phone. Miss Torsteen called over:
"MacIvers' Office"
Miss Fraser, Mr. MacIvers would
like you to meet him in Suite l126 at
the st. Dunstan at one - to see Mr..
Convin. Put that down, will you, and
60 right up without asking? Mr.. Con-
vim has law suit here and he's not
supposed to be in town."
Whats it all about?"
They want to talk to you about
the Ordinol account. They're thinking
of going to Bermuda or Nassau for
background.
The St. Dunstan lobby was crowded.
Luggage and porters and people.
Renee got into a crowded elevator
and went up to the eleventh floor.
She was tired again suddenly, and she
didn't want to meet Convin. She
wanted to 60 home and rest - to wait
until evening and dinner with Stuart.
Bermuda or Nassau. Too late now,
if she had that dinner with him. What
ever it was that had famed between
them two nights before was there now
for good or evil and there was no deny
ing it, no running from it. 1t would
take them now and shape them both
to its pattern, hurt them or make
them holy. The definiteness of that
was in her soul.
She got off at the eleventh floor and
looked at the numbers = green gold
numbers painted delicately on painted
scrolls on the tan doors. The corridor
was broad and thickly carpeted and
silent with the silence of the St. Dun
stan. She walked down it to the left
and pressed the button at the door
of l126. The door was slightly ajar
just off the latch. She couldn't hear
the bell ring inside. She waited -

invites her to 60 out with him. But
when she makes it point sometimes
to invite him, it is very ungenerous on
his part to rush to the cashiers window
or pay the bill before she can get it.
Rules to be observed in a theater. or
concert, include taking your places
quietly and quickly - especially at a
moving picture where taking your
place interferes with the view of those
seated behind. 1t is essential that a
woman take her hat off unless it is
skull-cap fiat. A feather that swishes
to and fro is worse than solid head of
unusual height, which keeps still.
Manners in the street have no rules
further than to walk along quietly.

the door. "Mr. MacIvers?" And she

that you expect manners to be the same
at football game or prize fight, as at
wedding or the opera? Or that people
singing at picnic are to behave exact
ly as they would in church choir?"
In answer to this. it is true that
every detail of behavior need not at
all times be the same. Manners are in
formally easy at a picnic. demonstra-
tive at ball game, and reserved in
church. But manners to suit the occa-
. sion are in use - always.
At football game, for example,
there is no ban against talking. smok-
ing, eating. or yelling when your team
scores. The inconsiderate thing to
guard against is jumping up and for
getting those behind.
The first rule for manners in public,
is to show consideration for the sensi-
bilities and the rights of others. When
you are a guest in party. the be-
; havior expected of you is the same as
that exacted of a good traveller. Any
disappointments must be taken in
good part. One who is upset by the
weather, or bad seats, or is finicking
about food would better stay at home.
The popularity of Dutch treating
has brought about the following rul-
ings on the question of payments: If
man asks girl to 60 with him to
game. or to the theater. or to the coun-
try for days golf-playing. or skating.
the expenses are of course paid by
him. But in this day when girl often
earns as much money as the man she
goes out with. it is not only proper but
fair that she should at times insist on
being hostess, or at least on going
