Routine work should engage at- tention and all risks avoided. Under this rule of the stars the judgment may be faulty, Decisions should be postponed until more helpful conditions prevail. This is not an auspicious day for commerce. Shlppmg may be subject to heavy losses through storms or disasters. Vessels belonging to the United States Navy may have unex- pected experiences. Propaganda of all kinds will be in circulation and will affect large Am- erican-organizations. Su:r;l secieties will multiply. State and Pederal budget: continue to be unsatisfactory will lems will not be solved at an early date. Mars, culminating in the Central may encourage strikes. riot- ing and sabotage, but there will be supreme efforts to encourage coop- eration between employers and em- ployees. There is a configuration read as indicating changes of government personnel. Women may be unfavor- ably affected by the stars. In many professions ‘and indus- trial enterprises a growing hostility to women in high positions will be evident as competition for high sal- aries becomes more intense. International affairs will offer States. There is a sign promising to Mexico and our negotiations with her. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of unexpected good fortune. Strangers will be helpful, to many, but deception will be common Children born on this day may be exceedingly intelligent.

If the head waiter leads the way to the table, the host goes first to seat his guests. The women fol- tow next, and the men of the party last. | Q. Isn't it discourteous for a woman to offer to pay her share of | the expenses, when she is the guest | of a man at some entertainment? A. Yes; it is not only discourte- ous, but humiliating to the man. Q. May a divorced woman con- tinue to wear her engagement and/ wedding rings? A. She may if she desires, but n‘ is far better taste not to do so. | B e | | | DAILY LESSONS IN ENGLISH | * By W. L.
