|ChewingGurn

Occasions

And for Sports.
By EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: Will you please
write something for school chill
dren on the subject of when and
where it is proper for them to chew
gum? This question comes UP re-
| peatedly for discussion, and while I
| don't approve of gum in my class
| room during school hours, I really
| can't give them convincing expla-
| nation for the objection to gum on
this, and other occasions, when am
| sure it is considered tabu. But I find
that if children are given sensible
reasons for what at first to them
seems unreasonable, they can be ap-
pealed to much easier than if told
simply that they mustn't.
Answer-I have had so many letters
lately from school children and teach
ers both, asking me to tell them the
| proper time for chewing gum, that I
am printing your letter for the bene-
| mt of all these others as well as YOUR
self.
My first impulse is to answer
never, which however is personal.
sideration for those who claim that
1t is sometimes beneficial to nerves or
to digestion-and yet being obliged
! to consider my own position as writer
OF this column on good taste-my
| answer is that chewing gum is abso-
lutely tabu on all occasions when def,
| mite standards of behavior are exact
ed. First, of all, in church or in Sum-
day school, When walking in the
street. When dressed in formal
clothes and wherever strictly correct
behavior is required. This obviously
includes the classroom, but not nee
essarily the study period. Those pu-
pills who see no reason for this tabu
in class might try to put themselves
in the place of a teacher facing the
picture of so gum chewing pupils!
Nor can one possibly imagine a dis
tlngushed man or woman at the
opera or at concert or play working
his or her jaws with a wad of chew
ing gum. Such picture is unthink- -
able outside of the comic strips.
Sometimes letter asks: But what
notice it?" My answer to this is that
I have set to see an invisible
"chewer"
But there are plenty of times when
Chewing gum is permissible, Just as
there are plenty of times when man
ners are the opposite of formal. At
all games, for example, chewing gum
is part of the typical picture of spec
tators and players alike. Chewing
gum is also allowed when taking part
IN outdoor games or sports or when
walking or driving a car in the coun-
try Of We are not chauffeur. But
at all times it is abominably bad
taste to chew gum with jaws open
ing wide, sloshing together noisily, as
1t is to eat abominably at table.

7 N THE United States there are as
many people in hospitals for the
treatment of nervous disorders as
4 for all other diseases combined.
Doctors in charge of these institutions
assert that more than half of these
mental breakdowns have been caused
by unhappy marriages.
This should give pause for thought
to those quarreling couples who regard
their daily spats as merely little in
nocent clean fun that gives a kick to
matrimony and keeps it from becom-
ing dull and monotonous. All of us
know plenty Of husbands and wives at
whose breakfast table the morning row
is as much a part of the menu as the
cof1ee and toast. They say the most
insulting and appalling things to each
other without attaching the slightest
Importance to their family feud or con-
sidering what effect it has upon them
mentally and physically and upon their
children and their general prosperity.
They say: "Of course, all husbands
and wives have to disagree about things
and have their fights" and let it 20 at

that they may be paving the road to

your French dressing good and tart

TO 1t for good luck. Chopped chives

Florida fruits and vegetables also
have suffered somewhat, due to the
recent frost and cold snap. The citrus
family, so far, has not had to push
prices upward, however, and the quail
ity Of the oranges and grapefruit, etc.,
seems much improved over the earlier
shipments. California produce is still
reasonable, and very plentiful-all
the root vegeta bles, brussels sprouts.
Delicious apples and SO on from the
West Coast are inexpensive. Squash,
eggplant. peas, beans and limas are
higher this week Salad green's stay
about the same, although tomatoes,
cucumbers and green peppers seem
definitely air-minded A few straw
berries-big, fat, luscious ones-are to
be seen here and there-but they are
very decidedly only for "the carriage
trade" their price being what it is!
New potatoes, tiny red ones. that are
so delicious boiled in their jackets,
with plenty of melted butter, salt and
chopped parsley or chives, are COM
ing in in good lots now. Red Cuban
sweet potatoes, so like yams in their
moist richness, are also at their best
And Idaho and Maine are still souar-
ing off at each other for first place
in the potato field.
A T THE big markets the sidewalks
are crowded with country peo-
pie surrounded by heaps Of holly, lau-
rel, running pine. branches with pine
cones, boxwood, crowsfoot and other
evergreens. Now is a good time to
place your orders with them for your
Christmas wreaths, so that they
may use the best and freshest ma.
terials, instead OF waiting until moth
ing but picked-over tag ends are left.
I have seen very little mistletoe, but
the dull green leaves and pearly ber-
ries should arrive on the scene
shortly, in great profusion.
Smoked herring, Goldfish, eel and
so on are all on hand, awaiting your
pleasure for Christmas morning
breakfast. Country sausage meat in
cakes and links: philadelphia
scrapple," pigs feet, fresh buckwheat
for cakes, chicken livers, Canadian
bacon, hams of every description
there should be no trouble in finding
just the right tidbit to please the
family. And, If you like cheese cake
the real old-fashioned kind-it may
be found in the markets too, along
with pffefernusse and German Christ

equal in number and weight At least, this
seems so when we consider the factors that are
significant within the period of month or

1t may be helpful, therefore, to list some of
the points which will occur to any experienced
and well-posted observer.
The favorable factors line up somewhat as

lation has occurred This prepares stronger

s. Machine tool orders in March jumped sharply and more

President toward prices has become confusing
