Manners
of the
Moment

NATURALLY it's diseoncerting TO
have another shopper come up to
the rack Of dresses you have selected
and make grab for one. Naturally
you get upset. You've gone to con-
siderable work to pick them out, and
you don't want to be disturbed while
you think them all over.
But you don't have to growl and
snatch back. Really you don't. If
you are very quiet about 1t all, and
just say calmly. I'm looking at that
dress. but I'm sure the salesgirl could
hnd duplicate for YOU" you'd be all
right The other woman would lose
interest right away. She probably
doesn't like duplicates.
The other woman. too, could get
much further with you If she would
take another rack. II she would step
up to you and say would you mind
saving the dresses that you don't take
for me? like your selections" then
you'd feel terribly amiable toward her.
You'd probably hand over several of
them right then and there, you'd b
so flattered.

Your Child's
Initials on
His Paper
Place Small Block
Letters in Center
OF Stationery
BY EMILY POST.

YEAR MRS POST: Is it proper to
give . young son. aged IL. writing
paper marked especially for him? He
wanted some at Christmas but no one
thought Of 1t. He has three names
In addition to his last name and
would like me to use ali three.
Answer-Yes, it Is entirely proper to
give him his own paper. The best
marking s small block letters between
three-eishts and . quarter OF an inch
high. Just his initials, nothing more,
in the center Of the paper, leaving .
one-eighth margin at the top Of the
sheet. BY this I mean. II you di-
vide the paper In eight parts and have
the initials put at the bottom OF the
top division, they will be Just where
they should be.
YEAR MRS. POST: Do you think
1t necessary. or quite polite to tell
children that oil the lovely presents
actually sent to them by relatives
were left thereby Santa Claus? My
little niece wished for q doll with
real hair and bought it and sent it
on to her, as I am very fond Of her.
Her mother wrote me to say that she
would thank me for Mary because
Mary was told that Santa had brought
her the doll. It Is not that I want
credit for everything I give, but
would have liked this particular niece
to know that granted her one big
wish.
Answer-1 have never before heard
OF any one who has told children that
presents actually sent by individual
friends and relatives were sent by
Santa Claus. and I agree with you in
thinking it was unfair to the child
IS we'll q to you not to know that
the doll was from you. In your place,
I should have felt very disappointed.
After all, 1t u not so much . matter
OF credit as that when we make .
gesture Of affection and perhaps Of
generosity, We do like those to whom
We make 1t to know that We have done
50. The fact that the mother knew
you sent 1t vas Of no importance what
ever. since the preaent was not IN
tended as Z gift Of courtesy to her (as
presents to children sometimes are).
In this case your direct message Of
affection to the child was wantonly
intercepted.

There followed a repetition Of the
experience Of many other persons who,

and courage to remove all obstacles in
the way OF overcoming that defect,
and not only succeeded in the at

very persons whom they had envied
previously. There is Annette Keller

she attained not only perfectly

worlds outstanding women swimmers.

Before a large audience of local
playgoers, Its a Wise Child was
presented last evening by the
New York Players as their second

The play laughingly concerns
the age old problem of a girls
virtue. and as presented, had the
audience in stitches.
The cast played their roles
with spirit. Miss Grace Shaw did
more justice to her role of the
troublesome young lady. Miss
Shirley Ayers played the role of
the tyrant sister.

OUR AIRPORT

There's a city in fair Maryland
Well known as Hagerstown,
Where many weary airmen
Delight to set" planes down
They've scared Ger lofty noun
tains,
SKINNED valley, river, plain
Like birds that fly from place to
place,
Then homeward turn again.
However dark the night might be-
There beacons show the way
Like candles in the windows
OF homes for those astray,
Whatever path they've taken
North, East or South or West
They're sure to find welcome
On Mother Marylands breast;
Then rested from their journey
Air birds of every sort,
Take off in all directions

to the status of a mission field. 1t

in America had no converts, and
5000 churches were closed during

reported to be without church serv-

should go to these pagan commune

The 1899 automobile will make it's debut soon at the auto shows New YCrk's opens November II. Here is q preview.
By DAVID J. WILKIE

DETROIT, Oct. 28. = You may have heard that because the motor car industry did not profit greatly during the 1888 season, new model changes would be relatively few this fall. You were misinformed.
 The 1859 model motorcar now making it's appearance has just about everything the most exacting motorist could expect.
 One of the outstanding mechan- ical advances incorporated in many new cars is the removal of the gear shift lever from the center of the front floor board to the steering wheel column This makes for com fort in driving and, added to the trend toward wider bodies, means much in increased roominess. Or some models the elimination of run ming boards is optional
 4 Bread Beam Appearance
 Aside from narrowed or entirely eliminated running boards, body lines back of the hood have not been materially altered. The front, however, is decidedly different. Low cred radiator grilles, that in some instances extend across into wider sweeping lenders, give the front end much broader appearance This effect is enhanced in some cars by head lamps that are sunk in tho lenders.
