DUf; WO nil knov pt'tty woll who vefyhody is. Ordinary we are just about all Ue Same. You .■an't very well live in a litt.e ‘own and he a snot). Hut then you read the iciety news. The women you know are net Mr.,.' any longer. They aio •Mi . dames" or "Mademoiselles" 'ie moment they join a eoir.nitt. e or assemble for a game
ERICH BRANDEIS ometimes I wonder whether
folks here in leniocratie as we
A merica are claim to be.
The thought came to me las-i | factories i lit when we were guests at
i an informal dinner.
.’et, informal as it was supI led to be— when we entered tne timing room of our hosts we r "ht as well have been in an
1 :lish manor house.
,cing r.arried almost twentyt ht years, I am no longer in t c habit of pulling out the chair
1 . my wife to sit down.
But. naturally, when the host i d that little thing for his wife, at could I do but join him in
t role of the eavaiior?
My wife looked at me for a. i iment as if she thought I war. . tying a trick on her—probably » thought I pulled out the i ‘air so that she wratld fall i wn.I Sometimes I have that ”d of sense of humor.) But n I gave her a wink and look- ■ over to where the host was ;t pushing the cnnlr back ler his wife, so she under-
jod.
Just look at this item. It *- ■> oni a story reporting the wedling of a nice little girl wh-> works in one of our nearby
Then came the complicated nry of spoons and knives and ■ ks that I have never neon able unpuzzle, no matter now often read the etiquette columns. Butter knives, fish knives, eat knives, they all look the ne to me. And when I start ! to eat the corn-on-mh T iv.idiately reverted from cavalier i drooling slob, Just as I always j no matter how often I am '.d by my better half that 1 ve no manners. This wondering about ou.* •nocratie way of life strikes me )3t forcefully when I read th > dety items in our local papje. In a small community such as
“Her gown of white nyloi si anisette and Chantilly lace was fashieni"! with a fitted bodice having a high round reckiinc and inserted Bertha collar of lace, full bishop sleeves, and a bouffant skirt trimmed with lace inserts and terminating in a long, full train. A coronet rf lilies of the valley herd her three-tiered, scalloped veil of French illusion, anw sno carried i Colonial bouquet of rones and lilies of the valley, wnh a ccside of the same blossoms."
I read this to my wire (wltn 'ri per intonations, of course) md asked: “Isn’t this utterly ,i olisii and just a lot of snob-
bery?”
"Of course not,’’ she replle I oiiglitily, “T hat sort of thing means a whole lot to a bride, md a lovely wedding makes for |
i happy marriage.”
Whereupon I commented: “Has our marriage been any lesshappy just because you wore n ■ample street outfit at our twodollar wedding, in.ste».» or a •scalloped veil of French illu-
min' ?”
She mumbled something I iidn't quite get, but it was aimothing about having no t >- mance in my soul.
