Manners
of the
Moment

Sometimes waiting for an elevator
on a 9th floor with just one other
person gives you q feeling of close
intimacy with that other person
It's bit like being stranded on a
desert island. The noise of the
street is far away and dim. There
are no windows by the elevator
which give you a feeling that there
is world around you. Cold Office
doors down a long, bleak corridor
are about as suggestive of the ex-
istence of other human beings as
an Egyptian tomb.
1t is natural that you should feel
close to the only sign of human
life around you, even though he be a
stranger.
But watch your step, my girlies.
Don't let the feeling get you. 1t
won't be but another minute before
you'll find yourself in the crowded
lobby downstairs. and your friend
of the 9th floor will be right at
your elbow wanting to know where
you're going for lunch--if you gave
him that smile when you were wait
ing for the elevator. Perhaps you
can handle him all right. But don't
think you won't have to. JEAN.

Tell her that dressing rooms are
provided fer the private rites Of the
toilet, and that whether q woman's
complexion is the gift of God or
came from the corner drug store is
a secret that should be kept between
her and her mirror.
Another habit that I hope you
will also correct in your girl friend
is that of doing her petting where
all can see and deride. Don't let
her make a laughing stock of you
by hanging on to you when you walk
abroad as if she were afraid that if
she took her hands of of you for
a minute you would escape. You
have no idea how much like a dog
on leash a man looks when his
girl has him in tow. Don't let her
flop over on your shoulder in the
movies or hold your hand. And let
her know firmly, but unmistakably,
that the first time she puts her
arms around you when you are
driving you will take her home and
drop her at the door.
Then you might teach her to sort
of soft-pedal herself, as it were. Not
to screech at the top of her voice,
not to make herself conspicuous and,
above all, not to try to be the life
OF the party. Few women have a
sense of humor, and when a girl
tries to be funny the most she
achieves is being common and vul-
gar. A soft, gentle voice and a quiet
manner will take a girl a lot farther
than being cutup.
Then, Of course, you might sug-
gest to her that, while a man likes
to be seen out with a girl who is
prettily dressed, he doesn't want to
step out with one who has on freak
clothes and looks like a figure of
fun. Men are conservative in taste
as you can see by their own clothes
and they don't fall for hair-dos that
look like hoorays' nests. And, OF
course, it might be necessary for
you to drop few gentle hints about
your girls table manners. Many a
girl has lost her beau by gargling her
soup and holding her knife and fork
like agricultural implements. And
many another girl-but the list OF
helpful hints that you can drop to
girls who need them is endless.
The only difficulty is-will the
girls receive your well-meant efforts
to improve them in the spirit in
which it is meant? Most girls are
SO satisfied with themselves that
they don't realize how much they
need reforming.

I can do without dining room,

with room to move them so that they
can be made easily. hate to make
beds when I cannot reach the fur

and still important, I come back
to closets. There must be one for
hats and coats In the lower hall
convenient to the front door. I do
not mean tiny space tucked under
the stair, but one large enough to
hold all the family's outer clothing
with space left over for guests, with
room also for rubbers, raincoats
and umbrellas, not to mention over
shoes, tennis rackets and golf clubs.
There must be a broom closet in
the kitchen-with a space for the
dust mops to hang clear of the
floor and room for the carpet
sweeper and vacuum cleaner. Each
room upstairs must have its own
clothes closet and somewhere, either
in the basement, attic or upper floor,
I want an extra storage closet that
is dust proof. moth proof and fit
ted with shelves to hold the many
things that seem to be part of
flourishing family.
There are lots of things I should
like, but will have to limit myself
to choice, such as afternoon sun
in my living room, dining room
which opens onto an outdoor din
ing space and has an open fire and
sunny window for plants. In the
kitchen I would like all the new
est and most up-to-date equipment,
and I am perfectly happy to clean
shelves if I may have them open
with my gadgets "at hand" and not
have 10 open and shut closet doors
to get at things. I would love a
sleeping porch, utility room where
I may sew, mend, press or write,
and among other things laundry
room with an adjoining drying yard
screened from public view.
Out of this will come my house.
One that I can live each hour in
happily, one that is the product
of what I have learned in 10 years
of trying to make other peoples
houses fit my family's needs. If it
does not work I shall have no one
to blame but myself.

Dorothy Dix Says
Young Girls Could Learn Proper
Decorum If Bows Would Help

Dear Miss Dix: I have been 60
ing with young girl of Is who Is
very nice and of whom I am very
fond, but she has some little habits
that crate upon me. I am sure she
could easily break herself Of these If
her attention was called to them.
Do you think it will be proper for
me to tell her when she does some
thing that is not just what she
should do? I know lots of boys who
give up girls they like just because
the girls have habits that get upon
their nerves. What do you think
about this? PAUL.
Answer think you would be
doing great missionary work, Paul,
if you would undertake to improve
the habits of many of the young
girls we see all about us. They Ger
tainly need some one to teach them
manners and grammar. what to
wear and how to generally conduct
themselves. There is nobody who
could so effectively impart this in
formation as the boy friend with
whom they are trying to make hit.
You do not state along just what
lines you plan to carry out your
reformation, but trust you will be-
gin by imWessing upon the young
lady that she should do her beauti-
flying at home and not in public
places. Every time 60 into a res
taurant I am shocked at seeing
women combing their hair and max
ing up their faces at the table.
While I am not pernickety, I Ger
tainly do object to dandruff in my
soup and having my entree favored

Check Your
Visiting
Ways
Courtesy Toward
Hostess Most
Important
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

When it comes to telling you how
to behave on vacation, I get a
little jittery, for etiquette varies
with circumstances. But I do know
that the majority Of hostesses, who
invite you to share their summer
fun, are very grateful if you prac-
tice the simple rules Of good taste
while you are a guest.
For instance, just because people
60 little more casual in the sum-
mer time than during the winter
months. there is no excuse for q
guest to go to table in slacks or
shorts or bathing suit just be-
cause she happens to be wearing
those when the meal hour is an

bare their chests to sun and wind
should definitely not bare them to
their dining companions! 1t is

shirt which makes a man present.

to others.
have known some very formal
people to go native" the minute
they get to the country. All well
and good. But even the true ma
tives of romantic isles and coun-
tries prepare themselves for their
eating! They shocked would be at
some OF our repellent eating habits.
Your bathing suit after bathing
should be rinsed and hung out to
dry. Your feet after bathing should
be rinsed and dried before you
enter house to dress. Some sum-
mer homes are fortunately pro-
vided with dressing rooms or bath
houses which eliminates the need
for guests to dress in their rooms
but if they are not available, you
should show your hostess every con-
sideration possible.
Remember, too, that 1oungine
mattresses and chairs and swings
need to be cared for. They must
be brought in before a storm, and
at night when they no longer are
needed. Help your hostess to dc
this.
If she has been thoughtful enough
to provide outdoor games for your
pleasure. take the precaution to put
them away once you have enjoyed
playing them. Even hostesses with
ample help in their homes appre-
ciate the appreciative, thoughtful
guest.
Unless you are invited to "come
and do as you please with your
time" you should fall into the
days schedule, or ask your host
ess if you may be excused from do
ing this or that If you think the
effort too much to make. The guest
who is difficult is never invited
the second time, and unless you
have tried to plan for several per-
sons during week end or a week
you have no idea just how difficult
task it is. Enter into the swing
Of things and show some enthu-
siasm for the fun planned.
Much more enjoyment can be
reaped from a holiday if you will
bring your most agreeable self along
with your holiday wardrobe! Leave
your worries at home, and your old
living routine. Acclimate yourself
to the circumstances in which you
find yourself and live the hours
happily. The change and the effort
you make are excellent for you

Our feminine operatives submit

You insist on shagging when dance

bruise easily and black looks from
other dancers make girls face red.
You invite a maid to eat at the

Of feminine loveliness are a little

lover of beauty, but don't be tact

to think that she's not so hard to
look at, herself.
You close up like a clam in the
presence of her family. She's prob
ably been telling them what a
nice fellow you are and what an
interesting talker. Don't let her
down by doing an imitation of the
Great Stone Face.
The table manners you exhibit
are loud and far from funny. Leave
the sound effects to the orchestra.
You 60 in for trick haircuts,
long and shaggy locks, or highly

your chair in the presence of ladies.
You drive your car carelessly

Your idea of a suitable cos
tune for a movie date is a pair of
slacks that never rubbed noses with
f1atiron, supposedly white shoes
that are now dull and dappled
gray, polo shirt that has obviously
served through 80 chukkers and q
sweater with more holes than a
player piano roll. If a girl dressed
like that you'd never take her off
her front porch-and we wouldn't
blame you.
You talk and laugh too loudly
in public. Showing off and making
yourself conspicuous is definitely
juvenile. No modern miss will feel
romantic toward you If you act like
her 12-year-old cousin, whom she
undoubtedly loathes.
You meet another boy on the
street, and go into a discussion of
baseball batting averages, while your
date stands idly by, cooling her heels
and wondering If you're not one of
them.
You wisecrack constantly. A
clever remark now and then is
JOY to any one, but perpetual ef-
forts to be funny grow frightfully
tiresome.
You're one of those blase, sophis-.
ticated lads who don't get a boot
out of anything. If that's the way
you feel. why take a girl out? You
might just as we'll stay home and
watch your arteries harden. :
There you are, you male daters-
the first reports from our feminine
operatives who've been ferreting out
masculine quirks and irks. Next
time our male spies will have their
turn, and they'll have plenty to say
about the girls.
Meanwhile, why don't you keep
your eyes open? Appoint yourself
one of our undercover agents, and
watch for social sins by members
of the opposite sex. Send us a re-
port on any quirks or irks that
you run across, and we'll include
them in a future column.

house, leaving the diamond-paned
windows and the stair towers to
those with more money and less Of a
life to live than I.
Ten years ago I would have head
ed the list of the things I must have
with closets, and do not like them
any less today. They are utterly
necessary to the efficiency of any
home, but there is limit to the
space they may be given in any
eight-room house. I shall plan them
carefully and not make a fetish of
them.
The important thing in my house
today is that it must be 'livable"-
that elusive something that is hard
to define but which pervades the
whole atmosphere of the we'll
planned house. This implies that it
must be physically" comfortable,
with time-saving and step-saving
accomplished through a reasonable
amount of automatic equipment.
But it must also be mentally"
comfortable, built around the needs
of my family and the way we live
1t cannot be an exhibition house;
the evidences of living must be
apparent without disturbing the
color scheme or destroying the ar
rangement.
Home May Be Livable
But Not Mussy.
If my husbands books and pa
pers are spread all over the desk,
that should be his privilege; and if
my sewing is on the table by the
fire and the children's books on the
sofa, want that to spell all the
things that make this home and
not just mussiness. I dislike dis
order, but I definitely feel that life
moves too fast these days to lose a
minute of the fun of it, and none
of these minutes will be wasted
trying to keep my house always in
"apple-pie order"
First, want hall in my house

and the outside world. I'd like a

and gloves and one chair for the
stranger who gets within my gate
unlimited.
My living room must be large
enough for each of us to have our
chair and lamp, with room left over
for our friends. This room more than
any other measures the INABILITY of
