(Boston Herald) A Parisian journalist, who has been taking notes, among us of late, has been vouchsafed a surprising irevelation. He is satisfied that politeness has emi- igrated from France and now has its home in this country. Here, however, the growth, as he sees it, has not been entirely spontaneous. It is rather a manufactured entity, something which has been de- veloped painstakingly by our genius for mass pro- duction To give weight to his contention, he cites the con- stant urbanity of hotel clerks and attendants, the subtle hospitality of porters, the soothing heedfulness of telephone operators. Even Paris, he thinks, has |nothing that can approach us in these qualities. At first he was a bit puzzled apd naturally sought light | from a hotel manager, to garner this explanation: “We manufacture politeness as others manufacture motor cars. Both serve general comfort and a more agreeable life.” mitigage, el | Mrs. Guy Smith, who was rapidly lett, Sante Degan, formerly of the SENSIBLE SANITATION REGULATIONS A long stride forward in guarding against disease has been taken in Alaska through the setting up of a code as explained before the Chamber of Commerce yesterday by Ben L. Grimes, Territorial Sanitary Engineer. The new regulatiops based on the law passed by the last Legislature are to go into effect on July 2 and cover the most important things dealing with good health and the sources through which disease is most often spread, namely, water. milk, food establishments, canneries, barber shops and beauty shops. Water and milk are to be scrutinized carefully The former will be tested monthly and milk graded and tested to guard against disease germs, Medical examinations will be required of those working in food establishments and sterilization of all dishes will be emphasized. Rules as to cleanliness will be carried out at canneries and barber and beauty shops. While strict in some phases, the regulations are not unreasonable and reason will be used in their enforcement, Engineer Grimes assured.
