HASTY YOUTH "Dear Anne Hirst: My fiance and I had a quarrel over noth- ing a week ago; he said unkind things, and I broke the engage- ment, I heard he went out and got drunk, "I have been sick over the whole business. I realized I was as much to blams as he; I am overly sensitive, apology it he hadn't taken too many drinks after he left. He never did drink that I know of, and this I cannot forgive. 'He called' me two days after, and apologized for being rude, but I would not listen. Don't you think I was right? Drinking is something I cannot-overlook. - MISERABLE" ¢ You do not say how old you are; but you must be very young to refuse this man your forgiveness. You were equally to blame in the argument, you admit. It is his getting intoxi- cated that you will not over- look. ® Under such stress, one drink too many: seems, I am sorry to say, a popular way to: induce forgetfulness and bring momentary comfort, to an emotionally upset young man, You-should have over- looked the incident and ac- 9 06000 is not a drinking man. . ¢ Better sit down and write him an apology for ending the engagement, and gay that you understand his reaction to the shock.

A Second Chance After reading Mt Marion Craw- ford's delightfully intimate book, "Princess Margaret" it is not dif- ficult to understand the reason for the Princess's popularity, Her - zest for living 'and her under- standing, warm-hearted nature --not to mention her witty quips and -impish sense of fur -endear her to al' who meet her. Marion Crawford relates an arausing incident that happened during the Royal visit to 'South Africa. Princess Margaret ac- cepted an invitation to Zululand to watch the Zulus dance. Thége descendants of renowned war=- riors put on a magnificent diss: play. As. the dance reached a feverish pitch of excitement the Zulu maidens went quite ma and chipped in at the wrong moment. How amused must those near to the Princess have been when she remarked, "Rather good boozie-woogie! Another side of her nature is revealed by her thoughtfulness, During her Italian holiday a number of cameramen were in- vited to the gardens of:the Bri- tish Embassy to take a photo- graph of her. "Let me pick you 'a rose" . said Lady: Mallet, wife of the In doin amor _ ado to her Royal guest. | : lost his pictures. Princess * Margaret was. quick to spot this, -and after receiving the rose, beckoned the ' photo- graphe "I saw what happened," she said, 'witt a smile. "But I do not want you to get into trouble with your office for losing your photo- aph. " With that she placed the rose. . in her dress and posed specially for the photographer. For his act of gallantry the man. obtained one of the loveliest pictures of th- Princess during the whole of her visit to Italy, Modern. Etiquette Q. What is th the proper se- - quence of pages in a social letter? A. It is correct to write on ~ the first page, .then the third -- or on the first, "second, third and . fourth. The latter order is probs ably the the better in the case of very long letters, as it avoids confusion, Never write sideways or crosswise, as it leads to dif) culty in reading. Q. Should a woman remove her wraps when in a theatre? A. This is entirely optional. She should, however, remove her hat, especially if it is a style that will obstruct the vision of those geated behind 'her. Q. Is it all right for 2 young couple to omit the engagement ring until later during their mar- riage when they can better af- ford it? : A. Yes. In fact, this is: quite .often d Q. When two men and two wom#¥a are together, what is the orfler in which they should en- ter a restaurant? A. The women both enter first, and are followed by the men, and in this order they fol- low the head waiter to their table. The women also precede when departing from the res- taurant. Q. Is it my privilege, as the bride, to select any music I wish to be played at our wedding? A. Yes, but you should consult: your minister, too. It may be that you wish. to include some secular music, which may be for- bidden in your particular church. Q. Is there any rule as to who should make the introductions at" an informal home gathering -- the host or the hostess? A. No, Either may do this. Q. Is it really considered cor- rect to accept a second helping . of food when your hostess offers it to, you; or is this 'a sign -of- greediness? A. One may certainly take a second helping if one wishes. it is a compliment to the hostess' cookery to do so. However, if you don't care for a second help- ing, you may 'say, "No, thank Q. Is a godmother or god: father supposed to remember the ' ohild's birthday with L] present | each year? A. You are expected to give 'the child a christening present. Any other gifts beyond this de- pends upon how much you think . of the child. Q. Is it proper to use a rub- ber-stamp return address on one's envelopes? A.

It was nice of you to think of us and we do" ap- preciate your-interest and good wishes. It is:things like that, the. little unexpected touch, that gives to Christmas: that warm Christ- massy feeling that is just a little different from any other time of the year. So again I say "thank L- you" for helping to make our --Christmas-- a-happy-oceasion.------ And now back to the big day ~itself. The turkey was sizzling in the oven; the plum pudding bubbling:on the stove; ti.e Christ- mas tree bright. with trimmings and gaily wrapped gifts as I be- gan setting the table for nine, confident that everything was proceeding without a hitch. For this I was extremely thankful as, for several days previous to Christmas an uncomfortable feel- ing had possessed me=-a feeling that things would not be quite as we had: planned.. The thought - bothered me as I couldn't shake, it off. Then as.I set the table laughed at my own fears . . . what was I afraid of--Bob and Joy had been up the night before; Dee had phoned that everything was - all right there -- and the- weather was good, so what had I to-worry about? Then the: tele- phone rang. It was Daughter. My "sister and Klemi would not be coming with them as sister Kath- leen had taken a' chill waiting too long for a'street-car the night before. Not only that but Arthur was having car trouble so they .might be a little late in, getting here. But -I am glad to say, even though the motor boiled, they ar- rived safe and sound. And how they arrived! Bob and Johnny went out' to'help them unload. . There was David: and his baby carriage; shawls, blankets; pres- ents, 'baby. equipment and two : 'halt: -grown kittens in a crate!

Partner and I have .a bedroom downstairs, Dee and Art and the . baby were immediately above us and 'we were all still sleeping. Suddenly 'there was 'a terrifig crash. I waited breathlessly, Had David's carriage-bed fallen off its improvised stand? Was he hurt? I listened for cries, I heard sounds all right, but it wasn't the baby crying, it was D wand Art laughing! "Good Lor . gaid Partner, "that darn bed must - have collapsed." That is just ex- actly what had happened. The bed, a lovely antique, of -the spool variety--a family heir- loom, given to us by a descendant of a pioneer family. This bed had wooden slats, on.top of which, --to give it modern comfort,--we--}- had placed a steel spring and. a coil-spring mattress. Thus it had given us good service for a num- ber of years, But alas, the bed had evidently reached the limit © of endurance, All the nails on one side of the slats gave way. The slats dropped to the floor -- as did the spring, the mattress, and its occupants. As 1 said to Daughter afterwards, it was & mercy it happened after the 'baby was born and not before.

Hard working and ' intelligent, he bids to renounce civilization and spend the rest of his life cut off from all human contact oh a lonely Pacific islet. 1. There, 13,000 miles from Cop- , enhagen's twinkling lights and. cigar-smoking girls, he intends to stone cult circles to worship the -|sun, or indulge in sacrificial rites, : but cling to his own peculiar in- terpretation of Christianity. His name "Tavi" is the Poly- nesian_ substitute for his baptis- mal name; his adoption of it sym- bolizes his renunciation of his European upbringing. It means blood brother of Maui--the leg- endary fisher up of islands from the Pacific's coral-haunted deeps. The young Dane's conversion-to _ Stone Age "simplicities" repre- sents no sudden fanaticism. For eight years, since graduating in engineering science at Copenhag- en University in 1945, he has been working steadily towards his goal. First, he saved up sufficient to emigrate to the U.S.A. In' San Francisco, he savoured modern civilization's "delights" --its speed craziness, cinematic artificiali- ties and press-button comforts-- but found all such diversions devilish, - "The atomic age is bankrupt," 'he announced, "I tremble for its future, Civilized society will he man's ruin, unless he escapes is too late, his true-destined affin- ity with Nature, her works and God-inspired "sublimitiés." ; get sail, with an American friend, 'to discover: a perfect island re- - treat.
