Emily Post Advises

A letter today explains: I'm
going to move into a new small
town and never having been a
newcomer in a town I wonder
what my obligations will be. If
any Of my neighbors or ladies
from the church call on me (a)
Should I serve tea or refreshments
of some kind and (b) are these
calls returned?"
(a) If you yourself are having
tea, you would, of course. offer
some to them. Otherwise. no re-
freshrents are expected. (b) Ger
tainly. within a week if possible.
Addressing Announcements
Dear Mrs Post: I'd been doing
private duty for some years and
in connection with my nursing
have met some lovely people. "a
I wondered if it would be in order
for me to send them all announce
ments of my marriage. Or could
it be thought presumptuous? (b)
Should the announcement be ad-
dressed to Mr.. and Mrs. or just
to the wife?
Answer: (a) Because it insures
no obligation upon the receiver,
it is seldom ever improper to send

la wedding announcement. (b)
Address the announcement to Mr..
and Mrs.
Oh, Please, No!
Deal Mrs. Post: What is your
opinion of the practice of local
shop telephoning a prospective
wedding guest. reminding her that
certain items have as yet not been
chosen to send the bride in queS-
ton" This certainly suggests that
the list Of guests are given to
the shop!
Answer: think this is quite the
most shocking suggestion that I
have ever heard of!
Knit or Not to Knit?
Dea, Mrs Post: I'd like to know
Iif it is polite for a woman to sit
knitting while she pays, or is
paid, a visit?
Answer: 1t is not at all I'M
proper If she is able to knit with
out paying the least attention to
her hands and if she is able to
under stand and reply to every
thing said to her; and if she is not
in the house of stranger nor
talking with a stranger who has
come to see her.

March Of Dimes
is Channel For
Meeting Obligation

Remember how last year Judge
Stanton Addams, chairman of the
1850 polio drive held that the city
had an obligation to meet with the
Infantile Paralysis Fund and
remember you folks came
across with more than $4,000.
Well, Judge Adams, chairman
of the 1851 Fund is telling the
same story since that $4,000, big
as it was, didn't meet the more
than $4,000 which the Foundation
spent on the city's victims in the
summer of 1949.
Speaking to the Community
Council last Thursday night, Judge
Addams urged every representative
to take back to his own group the
plea for funds to continue to show
the Foundation what that $4,000
Meant to East Cleveland as a COM
munity.
Chairman Adams reminded OF
the division of the fund, 25%o for
research, 50&e for the county, and
25%o to the New York office which
dispenses it wherever it is needed,
one time to one epidemic ridden
city, and another year to another
community so afflicted.

New Years Eve is usually con-
sidered a gay time but at the East
Cleveland Police Station the fol-
lowing two incidents are con-
sidered the most exciting for a
very quiet shift. It's a little late,
but the interest remains.
On duty at the desk was Patrol
man John Fenrich.
Just before midnight the out
side door opened and a woman,
seemingly in a big hurry, stepped
briskly in. She walked so rapidly
that she came up rather abruptly
to the counter. CHANGING up, she
