Informality? Annual Party at Indianapolis Country Club on July 16 Strictly ‘No White Tie’

Charcoal ovens will be built this year in the grove back of the swimming pool and the ciub chef will do the steak roasting. What goes with the steaks rests with the committee.

Reuss and Walter Schott. Mr. and Mrs. Denny have rented the Don Trone cottage at Lake Maxinkuckee for July and are spending much of their time there. Mrs. Denny will be back in town Saturday.

JANE JORDAN-

EAR JANE JORDAN—What is the matter with the young boys? They make dates with a girl and then don't show up. I am a girl of 17. I am clean, neat, not beautiful but nice looking. I love good clean fun and don’t expect the fellow I'm with to spend a lot of money on me. I'm writing this letter now because a boy has just “stood me up.” I went with him once before. When he brought mie home he asked for another date. I said either Saturday or Sunday evening and he said he would come both nights. He was over yesterday afternoon to make sure that I was going. Tonight after waiting an hour and a half I have decided that he isn't coming. He isn't the first fellow who has “stood me up,” and several of my girl friends have been “stood up.” too. Why do fellows make dates if they have no intentions of keeping them? DISGUSTED. = 2 8 2 8 s

Answer—The boy who makes a date with a girl and then doesn’t show up is so ill-bred and irresponsible that he isn't worth a second thought. It points to bad home training, unspeakable manners and rude behavior that makes him a complete social loss. The boys who break a date without an acceptable excuse are bad enough, but at least they have the grace to notify the girl of the change in their intentions and save her from the strain of waiting around for a caller who doesn’t appear. The girls should ostracize a bov who “stands them up” immediately. One failure to appear should make him completely ineligible for other dates. Even if a girl were willing to overlook a boy's lack of breeding, his distressing ignorance or ordinary social usage, his boorish lack of consideration for her feelings, she should not be able to excuse his profound indifference to herself. It is safe to say that a boy who “stands up” a girl without the slightest attempt to appease her pride hasn't, in reality, the smallest spark of interest in her. He dated her because cther boys were dating, because he thought he ought to care more for girls than he did, because the idea seemed desirable at the moment, or some other flimsy motive not based on any real interest in the girl, he incident was so unimportant in his mind that he dismissed it without a qualm as soon as he was out of sight. Can any girl stand being such a nonentity in the eyes of any boy? Not if she has a shred of self-respect. Treat the boy with an indifference as engulfing as his cwn. Don’t give him a second chance. He doesn't deserve it. JANE JORDAN. " Dut Jour | Problems fn a letier to Jane Jordan who will answer your questions Rd =
