Sex often has much to do with conversation. A matron would perish of boredom if she were. obliged to sit through a! opposite a certain type of flapper and listen to the same chatter which would cause a man of any age to grin delightedly. “With thee conversing I forget the} way!” So men listen to a girl’s talk although it lack matter, quality, con- sistency, grammar and pronunciation. And why, oh why? Because a man and a girl, whe sentimentally. curious about each other, as they invariably become if; left alone together, usually make themselves the subject of their ‘con- versation. At first they. discuss ro- mantic matters in a semi-detached way, via a book or a play or a movie and then they embark on a sea of in- timate confidence about their own likes and dislikes. A few students of human conduct insist that there is an increasing de- mand for intellectual comradship between husbands and wives. If this Ig true—certainly it is not yet evident in. all social circles—then a man will like a girl who at least can express an opinion upon subjects other than herself. ‘Scores of girls have introduced the words “pals” and “chums” into their letters to me, implying that on. all plants of interest the girl and “a certain young man” have the same tastes, By. ‘Certainly this is a wholesome kind of friendship and a most desirable state of mating; but equally, of course, a man and a girl can be pals and chums without having any com- mon intellectual interests, and with- out being good talkers in any sense of the word. 4 ‘Nowadays, as always, a girl who cannot talk well can dance, skate or flirt her way into popularity. A satirist has said. E “A dearth of words a woman need not fear, But ‘tis a task indeed to learn to hear!” “This is old wisdom for an everlast- ing truth: .a man will like best a girl who is a good listener rather than a good talker. That requires considerable tact. on the part of the girl, For she must not interrupt. while ‘the’. man tells about himself; and she must be ready with a new hunch when he runs dowa. Moreover, when a man:is making himself the subject 6f conversation, it is folly for:a girl to try, to talk about herself, for then the: two egotisms may clash. ‘Many lover’s quarrels originate in just this way. Of course, the shy: map requires different treatment. He often pre- ferg to listen. Then'a girl must talk to please him! “And)so, that’s that!” ape MRAP 2 8s SS TO GIVE DANCE.
