Parents Should Teach Boys Social Graces 8o Necessary To “Life

livery mother who works conscientiously at her gob 0g mom“. hood tries to teach her daughters the tricks and the manners that are the passport into society. Little girls are taught to curtgy: "Good evening Mrs. smith. How is your rheumatism today " And: “Thank you, Mr. Jones, for the beautiful dolly. I Just love it", when they are tnroarn in contact with older people.

And when they get to be bobby-sodium and have their first dates, Mother tries to giva them a line about how to treat boys; how to be friendly without being nwnopolistlc; how to show a boy that they appreciate his attentions without acting grateful for being noticed; how and when to suggest going home; how to start a conversation with a dumb lad. and so on and so forth.

But, strangely enough, it is a rare thing for a mother to try to develop any social know-how 1p her boys. She permits them to grow up with un- couth habits. to grunt when spoken to, to ignore - their elders, and often not to have even decent ftable manners. And whether this is because she lacks the energy to attempt to polish up a rough diamond, cr whether she believes that suavity of address will come to a boy when he needs it. nobody knows.

MALE MIEN IMPORTANT

It is a pity that mothers make this discrimination between their children because boys need to be taught their way around in polite society far more than girls do. They are not so quick to observe and |to catch on to the proper thing to do as their sisters are.

so when Johnny begins to step out, he often finds himself in a strange country whose manners and customs he does not know and whose language he does not speak, and he ls frightened and bewild- ered and desperate. Many are the letters that I get from these lads. aalllh-B: How do I invite a girl to go to the school prom with me? Should I give a girl a birthday present? Should I sand a gfol flowers if I am going to take her to a party? Will a girl expect me to kiss her good night if I take hcr out? What. should I talk to a girl about? And a dozen other elementary matters of conduct whose answers they should have learned at their mothers’ knees.

In one particularly pathetic letter a lad told how he bungled his first date by dzcrpfrg tle girl 1e tcck to n party at the rial lrmd‘ never going near her again. never seeing to it that she got any dances. or even any supper. “And when I took her home." he said. "1 just opened the car door and let her scramble out herself. and all I said to her was Just "So long," and she has never spoken to me since."

Sc this little screed is an appeal to mothers to have a mart and use a little common sense in dealing with their boys. Realize that Johnny isn't always going to be a little tousl-e-headed kid. He is go- ing to grow um and want to step out with the girls. So teach him. at least. all the approaches to the favor of the fair sex. Teaoh him how to write a nice note. How to help a girl on with her coat with- out wrecking her costume. How to dance without crippling susle for life. How to carry on a conversation. And how to order a good din-
