Ettiquette For Bedroom and the Bath
By SCHUYLER »LLMMf
AP Features Writer
NEW YORK—They've got n
new kind of poll out now which
asks things like what kind of bed
room manners have von got and
do you go out on week-end bend
ers and if so what time do you
reel in"
It's called “Family Behavior, At
titudes and Possessions", put out
by the John B. Pierce Foundation
a research organization, and is ded
icated to the proposition that you
ought to design a house for the
way you are going to live in it
So the researchers found 65
families in apartments, and 6fi
more in houses who didn't mind
answering questions like are you
the kind of cluck who locks the
bathroom door and then reads all
the Sunday supplements, or when
was the last time you had a snack
of sardine salad and onion juice
frappe in bed?
In the privacy of the boudoir,
fhe research organization finds 50
per cent of the husbands and 40
per cent of the wives roll over and
gojright to sleep.
Twenty-two per cent of the hus
bands read abed, but this doesn’t
bother the little women because
29 per cent of them have the same
habit.
Twelve per cent of the hus
bands just talk, but some of them
must run on like a phonograph
and never let the ever-loving get
a word in, because only 11 per
cent of the wives say they do any
talking.
Only 3 per cent of the men say
their prayers, and they ought to
be ashamed of themselves because
5 per cent of the women do.
Three per cent of the wives
think in bed, but none of the men
report any cerebral activity.
Two per cent of both the hus
bands and the wives smoke in bed
and 2 per cent of the men have
snacks in bed, which is all right
with 1 per cent of the wives be
cause they do too.
The little woman, who averages
getting to bed at 11:15 p. m. week
days (seven minutes ahead of her
spouse* often keeps the same late
week-end hours, proving she won't
let the old man out of her sight.
REGULAR MEETING TUESDAY
Regular meeting of the ATG
will be held Tuesday evening at
7:30 in the armory at the High
School. Full attendance re
quested.

"MEXICO SPEAKS", by Guido
Ross (John Day; $3)
It is not a simple matter to
translate both Moxican life and
the Mexican spirit of today into
terms that will be understandable
in the United States. The Mexicans
I am told, resent bitterly our pat
ronizing emphasis on the pic
turesque features of their life,
preferring that we see instead the
progress being made. z z
But perhaps by combining the
two approaches , Guido Rosa’s
"Mexico Speaks" may please both
countries; certainly it is a book
of importance. Mr. Rosa is not a
long-time resident of Mexico, nor
does he pretend to have cyclo
pedic knowledge. But he has seen
a good deal and he has sympathy.
His story of some months wan
dering with the help of Juan and
a feeble Chevrolet held together
with baling wire is a delight.
He wandered from coast to coast
and during frequent periods of
repair for the car, he took a mul
titude of side trips by bus and
train and afoot. His Spanish was
good enongh to allow conversa
tion, and on the trip he did not
take notes in front of people, some
thing that had proved disastrous
on other Mexican journeys Fin
ally, he carried a camera and used
it as well.
He emerged not much worried
about such movements as the

Sinahquismo, which, it is said, the
Falange is trying to influence. A
certain wariness toward our own
country still exists, but modt of
the people with whom he talked
were convinced of our sincerity,
esnecially after Pressident Roose
velt's visit to Mexico. He found
a curious, sometimes almost fanat
ical desire for education among
Indians who would not be ex
pected to feel it, and a general
belief in the good intentions of
Mexico's own government.
These, and more. But for me the
particular joy of the book was
the incredible beauty of ordinary
Mexican speech as reported by
Mr. Rosa. ‘‘How broad is the
shadow of generosity!” remarks a
man, and a peasant woman cas
ually explains that “love sees only
a rose without thorns, but wait
. . . How long does she suppose
that the opening flower can hold
its bloom?”
