Discount Cut
On Water Is
Considered

Possibility of reducing the discount
of water bills from the present six
percent down to three percent was
discussed informally at the meeting
of the City Council Monday evening,
but no action was taken. The mat
ter came up in consideration of water
charges for the pool at the West End
Country Club, and also of the neces-
sity for dredging work in the small
lake at the WaterWorks plant.
Mayor Henry T. Powell, who is
manager of the Waterworks depart
ment, told the members that if the
discount allowed customers were re-
duced by half, it would mean an adj
ditional revenue of around $1,000 a
year, and that aldermen might be
considering that as a possible new
source of revenue in the 1889 budget.
Some at the meeting saw in the
proposal the prospect of the equiVal-
ent of an increase in water rates,
which is what it would appear to
amount to, as it would mean that
much money customers would lose
and the city would gain.
The mayor told the Council that
the small lake at the water plant
needed dredging, that sand had ac-
cumulated over the intake valve, and
difficulty was experienced at times
in getting the pump started.
AS for charges for the country
clubs pool, the matter was deferred
for further study and the prepara-
ton of a formal agreement

Amnesia is the most common dis
ease among the middle aged. Old
bachelors and old maids are subject
to it, too, but it is among parents
that it is virtually epidemic. Rarely
do you see the mothers and fathers
of adolescent children whose minds
are not complete blank concerning
every detail of their lives when they
were in the teen age.
If you should ask poised, cultured,
philosophical Mrs. Jones if she
wasn't the little Susie Smith who
used to spend hours before her mir
ror practicing expressions of glamour
and starry innocence, cold
hauteur and disdain that she meant
to use on some pimply- faced lad;
and If she didn't cover her walls
with snapshots and programs and
invitations and souvenirs; and if
she didn't funk in her studies be-
cause her head was SO full of boys
that there wasn't any room in it
for anything else: and if she didn't
consider her mother a grinding
tyrant because she wouldn't let her
have dates on week nights, why,
Mrs. Jones would look amazed, and
say: "No. Certainly not. You must
have got me mixed up with some
other Susie Smith,"
Then Mrs. Jones would proceed
to tell you that when she was a
schoolgirl she never thought of any,
thing but improving her mind, and
that she hardly knew that such a
thing as a boy existed. Certainly
they meant nothing in her young
life. That she was mothers little
helper and enjoyed nothing so much
as spending quiet evening at home
with her dear parents, her little Sis
tiers and brothers and reading an
improving book.
Same way with Mr.. Jones. He
also was a model of all the virtues
when he was young-and wise be-
yond his years. From his infancy
up he realized that life was real,
life was earnest. So he never wasted
his time going to foolish parties and
running around with the girls and
spending his money on eXtrava-
gances. No, sir, you must have been
thinking about some other little
Johnny Jones who spent more time
throwing spitballs in school than
he did in studying; who was al
ways in trouble with the teacher;
who got into scrapes at college
that his father had to pay him out
Of; who was so patronizing when
he came home for his vacations that
his family had to pray for fortitude
to endure him; who was always fall
ing in love and out of love with
some little flibbertigibbet whom his
father was scared to death he would
marry. No. That was some other
Johnny Jones. Not the Jones, who
is president of the John T. Jones
Co., who is talking to you.
If mother could remember her
own girlhood she would know that
no power on earth can keep girls
and boys apart and she wouldn't
refuse to let Susie have dates. She
would help her to be popular and
make her home a pleasant place for
the youngsters to come to. In that
way she would know what Susie
was doing and keep her in line. And
when Susie had her first shy love
affair shs wouldn't laugh at her

Flowers Have

Meaning
Old Code Explains
The Significance
Of Blossoms
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Flowers are part of beauty
We wear them as an adornment
and we surround ourselves with
them because they make us feel
good. They boost our morale as
well as provide us with colorful
background.
From book whose pages are
yellowed with age I ran across this
flower code, which old and young
will enjoy hope.
"A declaration of feeling between
lady and a gentleman may be
expressed by a single flower, as
follows:
The gentleman presents a red
rose-"I love you" The lady ad-
mits a partial reciprocation of the
sentiment by returning purple
pansy-"You occupy my thoughts"
she is saying. The gentleman in
his enthusiasm, plucks and pre-
sents shepherds purse-"I offer
you my all" The lady, doubtingly
returns sprig of laurel-"Words,
though sweet, may deceived"
The gentleman. undaunted, still
afflrms his declaration by a sprig
of heliotrope-"I adore you" The
lady admits tenderness of senti-
ment by the zinnia-"I mourn your
absence"
This SO inspires the young man
that he offers jonquils which is a
final declaration of love-"I de-
sire to marry you"
The lady rushes to him a
crushed white rose Il am yours"

Pipe Smoking
At Table Is
Accepted
Modern Etiquette
Has Changed the
Former Ruling
BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: Recently
noticed in your column the state
ment, "a man never smokes a pipe
at the dining table" I respectfully
dissent. I have smoked my pipe
In the dining rooms of some of the
best people in our city, in one of
New York's best hotels, in the din
ing salon of some of the largest
ocean liners, and in many other
places. OF, course, I have always
asked any ladies who we're imme-
diately present if, they objected be-
fore doing so. I have also smoked
my pipe when I was in full evening
dress, which you state is considered
incorrect"
I wish you would give some further
thought to this problem. 1 realize
that some pipes and some tobacco
smell atrociously; so do some cigars.
I have always thought it irrational
that it is considered all right to
smoke cigars at the dining table
in many places, but that a pipe is
considered bad form. My personal
inquiries have generally revealed
that ladies would much prefer to
have a man smoke a pipe in their
presence than cigars. In the last
10 years pipe smoking has become
common. I thing it is high time
that we should recognize the real
tiles of the situation and admit that
1t is proper for a man to smoke
pipe after dinner while ladies are
smoking cigarettes and other men
are smoking cigars, with the proviso,
OF course, that it is not personally
Objectionable to any lady present.
Answer-The more 1 think about
what you say the more I am inclined
to agree with you. 1t is true, of
course. that it has always been con-
sidered contrary to the tenets Of
polite behavior for a gentleman
while seated at the dining table
to light his pipe. But then in the
days when this rule came into be-
ing, no one smoked at table until
after dinner was over, at which time
the gentlemen had been deserted by
the ladies. The gentlemen who
stayed at table to smoke their cigars
and drink their coffee and liqueurs
may very we'll (for all I know have
smoked pipes, too. In my mind,
the principal objection to smoking
a pipe at table is the fuss-to say
nothing of the mess-that a pipe
smoker makes when knocking out
the ashes and blowing through it,
etc. At the dining table this does
not sound very pleasant. But, on
the other hand, If he merely fills
it and begins not long before leav-
ing the table, there is no objection
that sounds rational" to me.
