Manners
of the
Moment

The hostess with the jumps is
very difficult to take. She jumps
up from the table eight or nine
times during dinner to fetch the
mint jelly. or the salt, or the mus
tard. After dinner she jumps up
and flies out of the room at frequent
intervals to find cigarettes or ash
trays or to close windows in other
parts of the house, or to open them,
or to take care of animals or babies.
If she does her jumping without
reference to the stage which the
conversation has reached, it can be
very annoying. Just as guest
reaches a high point in a story, the
hostess jumps up unceremoniously
and rushes out of the room. Even
though there are 18 guests left all
listening to the story, the spell is
broken, and there is general feel
ing that the whole thing wasn't very
interesting after all.
A certain amount of jumping up,
I know, is necessary for a hostess
without a coterie of servants. But
there are two things Id like TO sug-
gest to her: First. that she plan
ahead enough to eliminate all the
superfuous jumping up, and. sec
ondly, that when she does have to
jump, she jump during conversa-
tional lulls. Somehow it would make
every one else feel more guestlike

Punishment
Unfair
Teacher Is at Fault
If Glass Suffers
For Ones Deed
By ANGELO PATRI.

Who was that? The scholar
who did that raise his hand"
No hand is raised and the angry
teacher repeats the order. The
boy who threw that paper wad raise
his hand" Still no hand is raised
Very we'll Nobody did it I sup
pose. I just imagined it. Very
well. If by o'clock the boy who
did it does not own up, and nobody
informs upon him, the whole class
will stay in for half an hour every
day for the week"
Now some of the children have
work to do after school. Some of
them have special lessons by ap-
pointment. Some have appoint
ments with the doctor or the dentist
or the relatives of the family. Par
ents expect the children at the
usual hour. All that is disregarded
The whole class stays in, silent, re-
bellious and sullen.
One boy offended. He did not
confess and nobody will tell on him
That is the code of the school. To
expect the class to tell is to expect
them to dishonor themselves. To
punish them for not dishonoring
themselves is silly. 1t is also most
unjust. Nobody should be, nobody
is, in sane community, punished
for what some one else has done
Yet the teacher who is credited with
nf nj c
all this and keeps the class in after
school for five afternoons.
OF course, the parents complain
The teacher by this time feels she
must justify herself. She stands
firmly on her authority. The prin-
cipal usually feels he cannot inter-
fere. The children get the idea
that there is no justice, no fair
ness in these people, and lose faith
and trust in them That means
a loss in discipline, work and school
spirit. It is all too bad
When a pupil does something
that demands investigation and
punishment, make the investiga-
ton but don't ask other children
to tell on their companion-un-
less the offense is extremely grave
and involves the pupil in matters
that call for the police and the
courts. School offenseS are rarely,
very rarely, that grave.
Whispering, throwing wads of
paper. giggling and the like are
not worth taking school time for
correction. The fault is not with
the pupils, but lies in the teach
ing. Children who are being well
taught are centered on the work
before them and there is no talk
ing, no misconduct that calls for
an interruption of the work. In
properly conducted classrooms
whispering. communications of
many sorts. cooperation, action,
are the right kind of behavior. In
the classroom of the unprepared
undirected, unknowing teacher, Che
whispering, giggling, showing, toss
ing of notes and wads are the ex-
preston of boredom. There is no
need for investigation and whole
sale punishment. The cause is plain.
Better teaching will bring better
behavior.
Parents have the right and the
Gu,y to protect against group pun
ishments. They are unjust, in
effective, wasteful. They are the
indication of misdirected teaching
and the teaching needs remedial
attention. Discipline, like mstruc-
ton, should be individual, suited
to the needs Of the pupil under
consideration. The class ought no
to be held accountable for the mis-.
deed Of one pupil.

Calisthenics

Do Your Exercises
At Home During
Wintertime
Nv PATRICIA LINDSAY


OF course, hope you have joined
a bowling or badminton club, or
other game groups to get the exer-
else you need to keep your body
conditioned during the season which
keeps most of us indoors longer than
is healthy. But if you haven't, and
if a gym class is out of the question,
you may restyle your body and keep
1t healthy right in your own home
Determining to exercise every day
at home, and sticking to your resolu-
ton, requires stamina. 1t isn't easy
to spread a blanket on the floor, get
into an exercising suit or loose cloth
ing, and get down on the floor to roll
and kick to radio music. But this
exercise problem is greatly simplifled
if you determine to do it the same
hour every day. Most women find
the early hour before they breakfast
the most convenient for beautifying
Or when husband and children have
been packed off for the day and
peace reigns at home.
Rising half hour earlier is not
difficult once you make it a habit
and it is most beneficial Most of
us awaken at least half hour be-
fore we actually get out of bed. We
lie in bed and snooze. We would be
much healthier if we got up at once
when we awakened-providing we
rested sufficiently during the night.
AS one should exercise before a
meal or at least one hour after a
meal it seems logical that the half
hour before breakfast is an excellent
time-before eating or bathing or
dressing. Your room is well aired
at this time. too. From Is to 20
minutes of exercising is enough to
keep you in splendid form.
But" you complain, how am I
to know which exercises I should do?
! think I need a teacher"
You are quite capable of planning
your own schedule. If you follow
this column faithfully, from day to
day, you have learned that exercises
are presented in this space, for every
figure flaw. You know what is wrong
with your figure. You know where
you have stiffness or aches. Then
you should clip any exercise which
will correct your figure flaws or re-
lieve those aches.
By practicing an exercise three or
four times you may quickly deter
mine if it is reaching the muscles
which cry for toning. You may have
a little ache for day or two from
muscles which have been too long
inactive, but as the days pass you
will feel your body asking for more
exercise. You will then take pleasure
in stretching, and rolling, STOPPING
and kicking. The renewed vitality
you experience will compensate you
for your efforts.
I always advise girls and women
to begin an exercise routine by
first limbering That is, you must
ease the stiffness of your spine and
stretch your neglected muscles
gradually and easily. When you
have mastered your body and can
bid it to relax, that is the time to
go in for the restyling program. So
do be sensible and timber first!

When Boy Grows Tired of Girl
He Can Just Stop Seeing Her

hair, or that they had got tired Of
Susies babble.
And there Is nothing the girl
can do about 1t. She was not en-
gagged to the boy. He had never
mentioned marriage to her. He
was perfectly free to kiss and ride
away whenever he liked. And he
didn't even consider that he had
wronged her by letting her waste
the years.
That is why I urge girls not to
go steady with one boy to the ex-
clusion of all others until he has
shown Enthusiastically that his at
tentionS are with intentions. If
she is wise, she has more than one
string to her bow 1t is time
enough to settle down to one man
when he has put ring on her
finger.
You ask, how is boy to find out
whether he likes a girl or not If he
doesn't go with her steady? Just
as you do about getting acquainted
with other people. You can find
out just as much about girls
character and intelligence, tastes
and habits and whether she comes
up to your ideal or not if you see
her once or twice a week as you
could if every time you went to
any place of amusement you had to
drag her along.
Of course, the girl gets the hot
end of the bargain in the keep
ing custom, but it is bad
for the boy, too, for many man
marries woman for whom he has
lost his taste and for whom he no
longer cares because he has been
going with her so long that she
expects him to marry her and every
body else expects him to marry her,
and he hasn't the nerve to break
with her. DOROTHY DIX.

Dear Dorothy Dix: We are a
group of boys who disagree with
what you say about girls not going
steady with boys until they are en-
gagged and the wedding day set.
How, If a girl and boy do not 60
steady together, is the boy to get
acquainted with her and find out
whether he wants her for a wife or
not? How can he tell if she would
be true as wife If she hasn't been
true as a steady? We boys don't
care to 90 with a girl who goes
with other boys. That's our side of
the story. D. H.
Answer-This being mans world
in which men have pre-empted most
of the privileges and perquisites of
life, the consequences of a boy and
girl keeping company" are far less
disastrous to him than they are
to her. For, if the lad grows tired
of his current sweetie. or if he
sees some other girl who hits his
fancy, or if he goes to some dis
tant city to seek his fortune, as so
many boys do, he Just fades out
of the picture and that's that. so
far as the girl is concerned. She
is left fiat. She has given up all
other dates for him and she has
got out OF circulation. And, if she
ever gets back into the running
again, it is pure luck.
The ver-increasing number of
old maids is to be largely accounted
for by the fact that so many girls
let themselves be lured into the
unfair arrangement of keeping
company" with boys who monopo-
lized them for years and kept all
eligible suitors away, and who then
decided that, after all, they didn't
like the way Mary Jane did her
