Manners
of the
Moment

When your man starts lighting
matches and watching them burn
down to his fingers, it's time for
you TO change your topic Of con-
versa tion. It's sure sign that he's
bored
Don't let the thought fluster you
to the point where you lose your
grip and just talk wildly in order
to fill the void.
Take it calmly, stop talking en-
tirelv, lean back and relax You
might watch the matches burn down
yourself. Maybe if you do that long
enough, he'll think Of something to
say.
Or you might suggest some other
form of activity . a stroll, or a
dance, or a soda.
But however you decide to handle
1t, the one thing you simply must
do II you want the man to hang
around. is to stop talking about your
war relief or your troubles at the

In his commencement address to
the School OF Nursing Of the Pres
byterian Hospital of New York City,
Walter Lippmann uttered these
words
mo saint, no hero, no discoverer,
no prophet. no leader ever did his
work cheaply and easily, comfort
ably and painlessly and no people
was ever great which did not pass
through the valley of the shadow of
death on its way TO greatness.
Mr.. Lippmann was speaking to
young women who had dedicated
their lives to the alienation of the
sufferings OF humanity, but his
warning that for everything We get
in life that is worth having We must
pay the price is equally applicable
TO every woman in the world, no
matter what her estate
For the curse of womankind Is
the childlike belief that they will
somehow escape the common fate;
that they will dance without ever
having to settle their score with the
piper; that they will have love with
out earning it and success without
working for II. Hence. when they
come face to face with the realities
of existence and know sorrow and
suffering and work and anxiety, they
howl to Heaven over the injustice of
life. and some of them turn into
sour complainers and others become
cutters.
OF course there are exceptions to
all rules There are many women
big enough and wise enough TO ac-
cept the bitter with the sweet and
to take life on the chin and come
up smiling But the great majority
of women still cling TO the fatuous
conviction that their fairy god
mothers are going to present them
with everything they desire on a
silver tray. without their ever having
to do anything about it.
We see this illustrated in every
phase OF feminine conduct. Women
craving the good things Of life, but
not willing to worry to get them. or
to make the sacrifices upon which
all success is built They want
everything for nothing and. alas,
there is nothing for nothing in this
hard boiled old world.
Take love. for instance. which is
always womans chief preoccupa-
tion. having which she is rich. with
out which she is spiritual pauper.
In the beginning love is a gift.
After that it is a debt that a woman
spends the balance of her life work
ing, out.
All women know this and all
women know that no other woman
is so miserable as the one who loses
the love of the man she loves, yet
many wives are TOO shiftless, too
lazy, too self-centered to make any
effort TO hold the husband on whom
their happiness depends.
And consider mothers. Every
woman wants her children to grow
up into being fine men and women
and credit to her, but few are
willing to slave at the job of rearing
children. Rich women turn their
children over to hirelings to bring
up. Poor women shoe theirs out on
the street and leave 1t to the gang
to form their manners and morals
and ideals.
And there Is business. Every gtr

Very handy for the bridge table
is a magic" writing pad with score

game; simply press the button at
the top of the pad and the score
disappears. 1t can easily be ref1lled
and comes in bronze finish OF

There is another style Of these
pads on the market without rulings.
This would be handy to keep in the

making herself an expert in her line
She depends on willowy figure, or
just plain luck TO get her TO the top,
and when these fail she blames it
all on the injustice of fate and not
her own lack OF efficiency.
And so We come back TO the point
that Mr Lippmann so vividly
stresses-that there is no easy way
in life. Every foot OF the pathway
from the cradle to the grave Is hard
going. For every good thing we
must fight. For everything We want
We must pay the price And this
is particularly true for women.

Dear Miss NOVEL;: 7 have several
fine pieces of old mahogany in my
living room, and have searched
diligently for antique small tables
to use with them. want end tables
for lamps and q coffee table. Didn't
they use small tables at any time.
or why is it that cannot find small
tables? Do you think reproductions
would be out of place or should l
have cabinetmaker do some for
me? TIRE.
Answer-Small tables were Ger
tainly made and used. but I pre-
sumo their more fragile construc-
ton accounts in some measure for
the fact that they are hard to locate
They are practically impossible to
find in pairs. Fine reproductio
would be most acceptable with your
pieces, but you should select them
carefully. Watch for authentic
line and get either the "old world
or distressed" finish. The old
world finish is hand rubbed, very
deep and has lustrous atiny quail
ity The distressed" finish has
marks of wear and use apparent
under the finish which prevents
them from seeming 100 new.

Dear Mrs. Post: May a bride s

her wedding in church, even though
she is not dressing as bride? I've
chosen long afternoon dress In a
becoming color, and am wearing a
hat, and I wondered, since the

can't send the typical engraved
invitations?
