But the Chinese authorities repeat- edly announced they would not let the American forces camp on the Manchurian fronticrs. Therelore, there is no justification for the statement the UN forces were sur- prised. “Also, the numerical superiority | of the Chinese army was not such an important factor as some people gtress, It did not exceed 250,000 scldiers, while the UN forces reach- ed 150,000.

Children should be taught to do this at the earliest possible age. It is insolent for them to keep their seats, but if they have not been taught to rise, they should not be criticized for their lack of courtesy. It is only too obvious where the fault lies. Q. How much time is the bride cxpected to spend with her guests at the wedding reception? A. She doesn’t have to remain more than two hours. She may then ‘rdire to her room with her maid-of-honor to change into her traveling | costume. i Q. When is the proper moment for a dinner guest to open his napkin and place it on the lap? A. Only when the hostess takes up her napkin. And be sure not to unfold the napkin completely; open it only in half and lay it across the lap. —— LOOK and LEARN % ¢ gorpon 1.
