All right. But I could tell you a
thing or two. too." So although
us fi'inmrs study at length the
gentl' ait of pleasing, we often
bum to express our chronic irrita

We found the young ladies we
Interviewed of very vehement
mind on certain questions of
m.Me conduct. One decried the
gossipy boys, who not only tell
all they know, but "have beauti
ful imaginations." Another dis
likes "the same old line:" a third
'scored thoughtless tardiness.
Some one else complained of
conceit, and all its manifesta
tions. Yet another hates "mer
cenary men," claiming that she
doesn't mind not having vast
funds for an evening's enter
tainment, but "they don't need
to gripe to me about it." The
too frequent absence of little
courtesies like coat holding is a
pet peeve.
But the loudest moan against
gents is. of all thincs, that they
aren't men enough. From di
minutive art student to statu
esque newspaperwoman the cry
is "I want to bi dominated."
The weaker sex wants to revert
to type. When they a-dating go
they seek to personify feminity;
they discard flats and casual
things for fluff and softness, and
exchange their tailored, matter
of fact attitude for a more
fundamental one. They want to
be regarded as women submis
sive women at that.

Less Alphabet Sou.
"They have less alphabet soup
than we have," he said. "They
haven't killed off any little pigs,
but they have killed off big ship
yards and subsidized the scrap
pings of ships and have torn down
great cloth factories. The ground
on which redundant industries
stood they have almost literally
sown with salt thru making cove
nants that such land for years to
come is not to be used for building
shipyards or cloth factories. The
economics of scarcity has its place
in this British scheme. "
"At first thought, the English

Providing for the immediate as
