on a ranch at nearby Sheridan,
Wyo. The two former Washing
tonians give the huge luncheon
every year that launches the an
nual Bot Sots Stampede at Sheri-
dan. Whatever that means,
don't know, but it's the amazing
name they give to the three-day
rodeo over the Fourth of July
week end.
Also going West, simply because
she lives there, is Mrs. Richard
McCreery. who has rolled up a
party score during her stay here
that would stagger both Perle
Mesta and Gwendolyn Cafritz.
The handsome, elegantly dressed
Mrs. McCreery. who adores WASH
ington in the spring, came here on
March 3 and will leave this Satur-
day at midnight, having been
hostess at something like As par
ties in that period! She has been
entertaining. in fact, on the con-
slant average of three times
week. Even in this party town,
that is terrific.
Two days after Mrs. McCreery
departs for her home in Burlin-
game, Calf. Mrs Warren Delano
Robbins will arrive in town and
move back into her house on
Woodland drive which Mrs. Nc
Creery has been occupying during
her 3l2-month stay. Mrs. Robbins
went to her native Argentina dur
ing the first week in March, will
now stay in the Capital only a
week or two before going on UP
to Nonquitt. Mass. where she has
a summer home.

Emily Post

A young woman writes: Per
hapS it is required Of a man to
rise In the theatre to let someone
pass In front Of him. But is il
necessary for q woman to get up
il she can make enough space by
turning her knees to the side. or
pulling them in? ! do this and
sometimes the man I'm with will
say something about my not Civ
ing the people half . chance to

Unless the rows are so unusual
" narrow that there Is no space
to turn your knees it is much bet
ter for a person imam or woman
to remain seated. To stand is to
blot out the view Of all behind
you for as long as you stand.

Comparing Swedes and Norweg;a's

STOCKHOLM-I've ridden on
Swedish trains for eight hours at

not known for sure whether my
fellow passengers possessed IN e
power of speech or not.
Among travellers almost every
where, conversation starts spon-

shrinks from the familiarity. He
reads his "Dagens Nyheter,' works
a crossword puzzle, inspects tn e
landscape, takes nap.
But with the Norwegian it's a
different proposition. The Nor

street of shabbiness, suffering and
folly, where rootless two-legged
creatures are seen sauntering
about in a desert of stone, only
a stones throw from Smith Tower,
standing there as a mighty mon

supremacy over nature.
But down there. below the bril-

luxury, the law of the jungle is
still supreme among the children
of sorrow, if you want to look at
it that way. Buildings stand side
by side, but hearts are miles apart.
If anyone gets lost, is seeming
