Women are queer things, x»o doubt
about that.
They hate to be thin, and they hate
to be fat.
One moment it’s laughter, and the
< next it’s cry.
And you can’t understand them, how
ever you try. •
But there is one thing about them
that everybody knows,
A woman’s not dressed till she pow
ders her nose.
I have studied the sex for a number
of years. v
I have seen them in laughter and seen
them in tears.
Oh! her ways amf her whims I’ve
pondered a* lot,
To learn what would please her and
* ..just what would noV - . „ —
But all I have learned, from the start
to the close,
% Is sooner or later she’ll powder her
nose.
At church or a ball game, at dance or
a show,
There’s one thing about them, all that
I know,
At weddings or funerals or dinners of
state,
You will find that her hand will dive
into her waist,
And every few moments she will stick
up a pose,
And the whole world will wait till she
powders her nose. —Ex.

ETIQUETTE
By MISS FLO
Dear Miss Flo: It is correct for
the bride’s brother to act as best man
at the wedding? The groom has no
near relatives. (2) Is a Tuxedo con
sidered formal enough for a church
wedding which is to take place at six
o’clock? Thank you. L. B.

U. D. C. MEETS
FRIDAY AFTERNOON
The U. D. C. will meet Friday after
noon in the club rooms at 3:30. Mrs.
F t M. Boland is program leader, and
the teachers of the local schools will

o
The groom should choose for his
best man the person most closely re
lated to him'or his best friend. It is
not necessary that the best man be
a relative of the groom, and if he
particularly wishes, he may have the
bride’s brother, although it is rather
unusual. (2) A tuxedo is not consid
ered the conventional attire for a for
med wedding. Evening clothes should
be worn.

SUNDAY MEETINGS
MR. AND MRS. STUTTS
ENTERTAIN
On Thursday evening, Mr. and Mrs.
Marion Stutts showed their apprecia
tion by entertaining in quite a graci
ous manner five young men of the
Presbyterian College who have Sun
day School classes at the Thornwell
Memorial Sabbath School. Sweet
Peas with pink shaded candles graced
the center of the tables and four ele

Holland, Patterson, Smith and Harris.

Dear Miss Flo: Is it proper for a
girl to ask a gentleman to meet her
outside her home, .when conditions
there make it impossible for her to
have him call at her home? S. W.
* * * .
Your question is rather difficult for
me to answer. As a general thing a
gentleman would not like the idea of
being forced to meet a girl outside of
her home. At the same time, if you
make a clear explanation, he no doubt
will understand. Are you quite sure
that it is impossible for you to have
him call at your home and that you
are justified in meeting him outside?
Dear Miss Flo: Is it proper to wear
a wrist watch tc a formal ball?
Thank you. M. J.
* * *
A wrist watch should rtot be worn
with evening clothes—even though it
be set with diamonds and other preci
ous gems.

Dear Miss Flo: How much is a
business girl expected to tip the wait
ress who serves her lunch in a big city
restaurant? (2) When eating apple
sauce, should a fork or spoon be used ?
Thank you. K. E.
* * *
The tip should be at least ten per
cent of your check. If this makes the
tip too small, you may enlarge it ac
cording to your budget. (2) A fork
is usually better for eating apple
sauce unless it is Very thin. Then a
spoon is used.

At night I was troubled by the too

the backache and the kidney action
I didn’t get my regular rest and felt
