FLOWERS
My library,
Was dukedom large enough.
—Shakespeare.
/"'VNCE upon a time young women,
V-' unmarried, were enjoined by stick
lers on behavior not to visit public li
braries or picture galleries or mu
seums unless they were accompanied
by a chaperon or escort of some sort
—that is, unless they were forced to
do so in pursuit of their daily broad.
Now our children go to the libraries
alone from the time they are able to
go anywhere, and there could hardly
be a better place for them to spend
their time. But they should he cau
tioned to abide by certain rules of
good manners when in a library if
they are to he welcome visitors.
In the first place, the rule of silence
should he obeyed very punctiliously.
And for that reason there Is distinctly
an advantage In going alone to a li
brary, for then there is no temptation
to talk. To go with a friend to a li
brary without some serious Intention
of studying or reading is certainly in
very poor laste. Tn (rifles there Is al
ways a class of persons who go to the
library because it Is a comfortable
sort of place, well heated in winter and
cool In summer, better perhaps than
their own homes as a place for an idle
hour, agreeable for a nap now and
then and not a bad place for a Hide
flirtation. Sometimes you will even
see one of these library enthusiasts
snatching a hit of cold lunch from a
paper hag kept covertly hidden from
the vigilant eye of the librarian under
cover of a book.
So do not make that sort of con
venience of your library. Do not use
it as a rendezvous, ns a convenient
place to meet the young woman whose
family does not wish to receive you
In the home.
Always remember when you are In
n library that if you have any ques
tions they should be addressed to one
of the persons in attendance. Tf you
do not know liow to use the catalogues
do not consult another reader, but go
to one of tiie librarians, whose busi
ness it Is to give just that sort of In
struction. If you do not know where
to find a bit of information for which
you are in senrelt, you nre quite at
liberty to ask one of the librarians to
help you.
Usually women do not remove their
hats in public places. That is, it would
be regarded in very exceptional taste
to take off the hat in a department
store or for luncheon at a restaurant;
ar.d only when the journey is to tie
long would a woman remove her hat
in a railroad train. But it is perfect
ly all right for a woman to remove
her hat when she is going to rend for
any length of time in the library. In
a large library she may check this
with her coat and any other acces
sories at the entrance door, or she may
simply slip It from her head after she
has taken her place at her seat. It is
extremely inconsiderate, however, to
spread one’s hat and other personal
belongings about so as possibly to be
an inconvenience to others. Wet um
brellas should ne’ - or be carried into a
library. If there is no checking desk
they should be left in the umbrella
rack at the door.

By the way, it seems real hard for a
girl to do a sport like a certuin girl did
Sunday. She stayed away awful late,
but that didn’t cut any ice, for he was
right there when she arrived.
Just wonder where the attraction
could have been Sunday night, as two
of our young men were so lute getting
