good housekeeping, nor know the
first principle about making q COM
Portable home.
Nor would I marry Mabel If her
mother is a shrewish, tyrannical,
overbearing woman of whom her
husband stands in covering fear.
should reflect that Mabel might have
inherited Mammals temper. and that,
anyway, I did not want q wife who
had been reared in an atmosphere
in which men and women do not
exercise ., decent self-control over
their tongues.
Speaking by and large, as the
mother is, so Is the daughter, but
there is no rule without its excep-
tions and now and then an old hen
matches out q swan. Sometimes the
fool woman has q clever daughter.
Sometimes q weak woman has q
strong daughter. Sometimes q friv-
olous mother has q serious minded
daughter.
And sometimes a girl is 50 dis
gusted with her mothers way Of
doing things that she takes the
opposite tack and goes to the other
extreme. Sometimes the girl who
has been brought up in a house like
a pigsty becomes a monomaniac on
cleanliness. She who has known In
her youth the dread knock Of the
bill collector forever pounding on
the door, turns into almost q miser,
and she who has been brought up in
an atmosphere of strife becomes q
peace-at-any-price wife.

Replace Lost
Fraternity
Emblem
May Be Possible
To Duplicate
Missing Pin
BY EMILY POST.

When you have the misfortune to
lose something that belongs to
somebody else. 1t becomes your duty
to replace whatever this is-if it be
possible. In fact. one of the fixed
rules Of etiquette that competent
parents are expected to teach their
children is never to borrow. or be-
come responsible for. something that
cannot-if necessary-be replaced
or repaired. should it be lost or
broken. Perhaps 1t may also be
noted that one should avoid-when
possible-making another response
BILE for something not replaceable.
Speaking personally, a situation
that is always distressing is to find
myself in temporary possession Of
Z manuscript Of which the writer
has kept no copy. This is quite be-
side the point of the question asked
me by girl who asks what to do
about having lost her best boy
friends fraternity pin. She has
looked everywhere for it and has
done everything she can think of to
find 1t. She would get him another,
no matter how expensive it might
prove to be-meaning how much she
might have to do without to pay
for it-if only she knew how to 60
about getting it.
She doesn't suppose she can 60 to
q jewelers. and ask II they keep Al
pha Beta Gamma pins and say she
wants to buy one. And on no ac-
count does she want to tell him
about it. because he will probably
not excuse her carelessness in the
first place, nor let her pay for a
duplicate in the second. She has
thought of appealing to one of his
brothers, but she thinks the
chance is small of his being willing
to help her get duplicate pin and
let its owner remain in ignorance
OF the fact that his real pin Is out
loose and alone in the world some
where.
The whole tone of her letter is so
desperately upset 1t even suggests
somewhat the willingness to go to
tragic extremes in order to replace
what she has lost. Fortunately, even
though it is obviously true that no
member OF a fraternity could feel
happy in the thought that his pin
may have fallen into desecrating
hands, I believe it is not impossible
to order q duplicate from one Of
the ofhcial fraternity jewelers..
II you write to such a firm ex-
planning what happened, giving
them the name of the man whose
pin it was, and the name of the
fraternity, the chapter and his class
year, they will, I think, tell you how
much it will cost. You can then
send them the money, and they will
then mail the pin to him. You in
close self-addressed envelope and
ask to be notified as soon as they
are ready to mail the pin. You
can then explain to him the mean
ing of its arrival.
I acknowledge that I am a little
over my depth in writing about this
at all, but It is a situation about
which I am 50 often asked that I
feel must answer it with, let me
say, ordinary common sense. About
having the pin sent to him-I can't
imagine that the jeweler would ever
send IN emblem Of such importance
to any one other than its owner.

tell him that you aren't a man of

free to do as you please"
Gee, ma, you're awful tough"
SOS a contract. Listen to me,
son. I'd rather have you work twice
as hard for nothing at all II 1t was
choice between that and breaking
your word. Once you give it you
stick to it. That's more important
to you than your earnings in cash.
I don't want to own a boy who
breaks his given word"
When children are young and in
experienced they meet these difacul-
ties. What they learn by meeting
them is going to affect their charac-
tiers for lifetime. The child who
learns that he keeps a bad bargain
because he agreed to 1t learns to be
careful about the next one. By
taking his own responsibility in
these matters he gathers wisdom
and understanding. The usual boy
rarely makes a bad bargain twice
IN a row. He learns.
When he thinks he has been
worsted it is time to show him that
he should have thought of those
things before he agreed to take the
contract. If he is brought up that
way he won't be an easy victim
Tor the pressure agent who slips a
pen into his hand and tells him his
name would look good on that line.
1t is better to get such experiences
over with early. Their lessons re.
main late in life as signposts on
the road to wisdom.

Dorothy Dix Says go
Girls Mother Gives Good Picture
OF What Daughter Will Be Like

A young man asks me II it is safe
to judge young girl by her mother.
Generally speaking, yes. Ninety
f1ve times out of hundred the best
tip that a youth can get on maiden
Is to size up her mother and study
her past performances. The way
mother looks at so is pretty likely
to be the way Mabel will look at
middle age. The kind of a house,
keeper mother is, is more than likely
to be the way that Mabel will keep
house. Mothers point of view is
about the way that Mabel will look
at things. For you see, son, Mabel
Is the result Of both heredity and
environment, and the chances are
that mother has not only bequeathed
to her daughter her own beauty or
homeliness, and her own brains or
stupidity, but she has formed the
girls character and the ideals that
will make her code of conduct as
long as she lives.
Therefore, son, I should take a
very long and careful look at mother
before I popped the question to
Mabel, for the old adage, 'like
mother, like daughter" is only too
likely to be true. If mother, for in
stance, is one Of those ladies who
habitually deceive their husbands
about the bills and all family mat
ters, and whose favorite motto is.
What a man doesn't know, doesn't
hurt him." I should leave Mabel for
some more optimistic suitor, for I
should want my wife and the mother
OF my children woman who would
play the game squarely with me and
who had honor and honesty bred
into her very bones.
II mother has kept fathers nose
to the grindstone all of his life try
ing to pay for her extravagances, I
would never let myself In for q life
time of slavery by marrying her
daughter for I should want wife
who would be helpmate instead
OF a milestone around my neck.
If mother is poor housekeeper
where nothing is ever done on time,
where the meals are a menace to life
and where there Is no order or
system or management, I would not
endanger my stomach and my hap
piness by putting them in Mabel's
hands, for I would know that she

The Rocking Chair

How many of us have lounged COM
fortably in an old rocking chair,
perhaps dark Victorian mahogany
piece with its machine age carica-
ture Of Empire style, and wondered
who first thought of putting rockers
on chairs?
It is likely that we will never
know for sure. Although Benjamin
Franklin was most probably the in
ventor, it seems strange that it took
three or four hundred years and an
ingenious American to transfer the
rocker from the cradle to q chair!
Supporting the Franklin tradition
is the description of call on Frank
lin by Rev. Manasseh Cutter on July
13. 1857: HE also showed us his
long artificial arm and hand for
taking down and putting books up
on shelves and his great armed
chair with rockers and many
other curiosities and inventions, all
his own but Of lesser note"
Rev. Cutter falls just short Of say
ing in actual words that Franklin
had originated this most amazing
chair.

Manners
of the
Moment

The habit Of dribbnng cigarette
ashes all over your coffee cup and
saucer and dropping the butts into
the dregs Of the coffee is q habit you
should watch. If you have 1t, you
may have trained your family or
your most intimate friends not to
mind. But you never can tell about
strangers. Some of them won't
like 1t.
In fact, I know a few people who
consider it absolutely disgusting.
They don't like the messy look of the
table after the coffee cup is all
sprinkled with ashes. And they can
scarcely bear to look at the cup itself.
And there are hostesses who have
to wash their own dishes, who nearly
go crazy when they have to deal with
cigarette butts, mingled. in with the
leftover food. Every once in q while
. butt gets into the dishwater by
mistake. And that's no fun for the
washer.
So on the whole it's better to ask
for an ash tray, or 60 outside to
smoke. Anyhow, its good to keep
the idea in the back Of your mind.
