Another disappointment to the Southern visitor is the race dis crimination she found here. She feels that the North Americans are "standing against themselves in their own country." Girls in Uruguay, regardless of their age, are not allowed to go any place unless accompanied by a chaperone, even if the chaperone is only a sma'i child. No girl is allowed on the streets after 9 o'clock at night without an escort or chaperone. Dances Are Popular. Social gatherings and dances in the homes of friends are prac tically the only forms of enter tainment and the only chance girls have to meet young men. Birthday parties are important events attended by the young peo ple and their parents and lasting until Z or 3 in the morning. For mal dances start between 11 and 12 and last until 6 or 7 in the morning. At these they dance the milonga which is faster than the tango. Eating habits also differ be tween the two countries since in Uruguay four meals are served a day; breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner with dinner served at 10 o'clock in the evening. Miss Estevez was amazed at the work capacity of the people in this country and feels that they work too hard. She-said, however, that the Uruguayan people do too much talking and not enough act ing. She believes that North Americans seek to better them selves and do not have money as their goal.

She is a hostess. and her social obligation is to do all in her power to assure a good time for all fellows. Girls do not "put on the coy act" at such an affair. It is the one time the privilege is theirs they must ask the young man to spin the next recording with them. This invitation not only includes the tripping of the "light fantastic, but includes enough conversation to assure the ease of both parties, and with the end of the dance, the exchange of partners, involv ing no embarrassing complica A warm welcome, an interesting and entertaining hour, .'and a courteous good night are the es sential "do's" of Nbra'-a women students lor hour dances.
