Don't Be Too Smart

One way to keep the other fellow
from marking you down as dumb or
miSinformed is to confine your posi-
tive, unqualified opinions to the sub
ject or subjects on which you are
an authority. When the talk is down
your alley be as positive as you
like, but when it gets around to the
other fellows field. let him tell you.
The reason this simple rule is so
hard to follow is that the average
fellow is afraid to admit he doesn't
know everything about everything.
He is afraid that if he asks ques-
tons and try to learn from the other
fellow, he'll think he is smarter.
Proof that nothing like that happens
occurs all the time. A man or wom-
an will spend two hours listening to
another person explain the subject
in which he is most interested, in
terrupting only to ask an intelligent
question And the other fellow will
say, There's smart person"

From tonight until then the
debutantes will have an exhaust
ing whirl. The balls, given by old
and exclusive carnival organiza-
tions of men, who thus dominate
social life by selecting the queens
and courts of their gatherings,
soon will be nightly affairs.
The queen of the Twelfth
Night Revelers, by tradition, will
be the lucky girl who finds a
gold bean tonight hidden in one
of many little white cake boxes.
Other fortunate ones will draw
silver beans and thus become
maids in the court of the Lord Of
Misrule and his queen.
AS at all the balls, there will
be an elaborate tableau before
the dancing, in which the wo-
men participate after "call outs"
from the masked and costumed
members of the carnival organi-
zation.
Five days or SO before Mardi
Gras, the balls will get bigger
and brighter, the nightly street
parades will begin, visitors will
throng in, and the "City that
Car Forgot" will rush toward q
grand, slap-happy carnival eli
max.
