If he has taken trip anywhere,
he won't confine his remarks to a
few brief and entertaining stories
about his visit, but he'll live over
every day of his jaunt, sublime in
his ignorance of your desire TO
have him shut up.
He lets you know, usually not
too hrazenly but certainly not too
tactfully, how much better off he
is than you or any of his friends.
He has fun in telling how much
money he spent on his possessions
especially when he knows you
couldn't begin to afford the things
he boasts about.
He discusses the fsilings Of
others at length with an absolute
indifference to his own very ap-
parent ones. But that is natural,
for the bore doesn't realize that he
has any fsilings.
He monopolizes conversation and
when anyone else starts to say
something he calmly takes the
topic over as his own. to dwell at
length on 1t.
No matter what II mentioned,
ne always knows more about the
subject than anyone else. He has
fun in proving with thousand
words where he could use ten. how
much smarter he is than his
listeners.
He is the chap who is commonly
making fun of his wife In order to
amuse his friends. The pity of his
act is that it is so unfunny, but
he never knows II for being bore
he Is a typical show-off.
He goes into friendly crowd
and spells the evening for everyone
by engaging in constant argument.
He is especially annoying when he
is the type that grows personal.
To sum the matter all up, bores,
both men and women, arc tiresome
because they talk too much.
Most of us could profit by their
actions If we would have the
patience to listen to them for a
while. II would be struggle for
most of us like to talk, tool, but
it would be well worth our while,
for ii would teach us the value Of
silence, and the person who has
learned that, at least is never
bore.

Six-FOOters In
California Club

LOS ANGELES The California
Tip Toppcrs, club composed of
men and women al over six feet in
height, now has 40 members.
The club was organized a year
ago when Miss Kae Krysler wrote
an article for a local magazine be-
wailing the disadvantages of the
tall girl. She was swamped with
letters from over the country and
with telephone calls from similar
sufferers in the city.
The result was the decision to
form the California Tip Toppers
club, which opened last May.

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIYE

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE
There were plans to be made
and preparations for the wedding
Aunt Anna insisted Angela must
have.
BE married in a veil" she
urged, even If there isn't anyone
to see 1t except the family"
Dan hates fuss and feathers,
Angela argued. And so do l. Be
sides he's going TO be too tired
to act like the traditional bride
groom"
To her surprise, however, Dan
agreed with her aunt
It's the only wedding you'll
ever have" he told her, Better
make 1t a good one"
Privately he admitted that so
far as he was concerned, trip
to the justice of the peace would
be sufficient. But Aunt Anna and
her father would like TO see them
married at home. And why not
since IL meant so much to them
Angela cried, mo won Err
Auntie is crazy about you. The
way you cater to her."
No Desire
In her heart. however, she was
pleased She had no desire for a
large wedding but she did like the
idea of wearing veil. She was
so busy that the details of her
trousseau were left TO the gray
haired spinster who enjoyed her
responsibility to the utmost.
1t was Anna Heath who made
the necessary trip to the city re-
turning with selection of dresses
for her niece To choose from. They
were taking a brief trip cast for
their honeymoon. Then days in
New York during which they in
tended TO visit various children S
hospitals and every public nursery
they could find
The wedding was TO take place
on New Years eve and Dan. who
had selected the date after careful
perusal of his schedule, was pray
ing that all blessed events would
behave and not happen ahead of
time.
ITS the only two weeks in
terval j can count on for the
next six months" he admitted.
Lucky for me it happens that
way" Angela rejoiced otherwise
suppose we'd just have to wait"
You're Wrong
That's where you're wrong"
he grinned. Because I'm starting
the New Year with you even II
we never have honeymoon"
II seemed so natural for them
to be engaged They had worked
together for so long, shared each
others problems until they already
seemed united mentally. Angela
was conscious of deep. inner

world but 1t was not the mad. de

A welcome Home" Party

Dear Mrs. Post: My young
daughter has been visiting my sis
ter on the West Coast for some
months. We expect her back soon
and as welcome home" party
for her I'd like to invite about
twenty-five of her young friends
to tea on an afternoon soon after
her return. The invitations will
necessarily have to be given be-
fore my daughter arrives. Shall
l write the invitations, and what
kind ? And who shall I invite to
pour tea? / had not intended
this party to include any old
friends of my own, but rather to
be young party. But if send
the invitations in my own name,
| suppose l shall be expected to
be present. Will you explain what
is the best procedure to follow.
Answer: Write on your visiting
card: ITO welcome Mary home"
and then down below your name,
write: Thurs. Jan. &c, Tea at
4:30 o'ck." II you want an answer
to these invitations then put "R s.
v. p" over on the right side just
above the address on your visiting
card. Under the circumstances,
you should of course receive the
guests, and then perhaps pour
tea. Or, if you decide to invite
friends of your own, it would be
better to ask one of these to pour
tea.

If you have a large waist

YOU can dress TO disguise

b. EMILY POST

Dear Mrs. Post: Several years
ago there was a young man with
whom I went out a great deal.
I was very fond Of him. but as
neither OF us had very bright
financial prospects when he told
me ne loved me. I SAID. Let's al
ways be good friends Soon after
this incident occurred. he vent
abroad 10 visit his family and
stayed away two years. During
that time we corresponded. And
during his absence | began realiz-
ing that I cared for him very much
indeed But I'm desperately afraid
that he's not going 10 give me A
chance to let him know about
this because he telephoned me the
other day 10 say hello and I
learned from him then that he has
been back in this country for seV-
eral weeks. He did not ask to
come to see me. It Is possible. of
course. that he may have changed
his mind about me, but I'm hoping
that he is staying away TO save
what he believes would be an I'M
happy situation. He is not the
type of person to force himself
where he thinks he is not wanted.
It is this reserve of his that makes
1t difficult for me to know how
can let him know that. so far as
I am concerned. all is changed.
VIII you tell me what would be
a proper thing for me to do.
Answer: You could telephone
and tell him how glad you were
to hear his voice the other day
and invite him to your house for
Sunday dinner or whatever you
can ask him to. II you think il
wise, you might perhaps tell him
that you have much TO say to
him. But don't sound sentimental.
II ne accepts your invitation, you
can be plainly overjoyed to see
him and by the tenor of his re-
Spouse perhaps find out where
you stand. If you think it's the
same as before, you can encourage
him where before you discouraged
him.
