12 THE SUITOAY OREGOXIAN, POHTLA1ST5, AUGUST 12, fflS6- Same Old Story. When -we cot back to town last U"all, We one and all acreed That coins: to the mountains was A foolish thing-, indeed; It rnean't a lone and dusty trip, "Kith little at the end Bxcpt a hot and stuffy room, "With nothlnr to commend. Tlie table ?ias but 111 supalled. The service worse than none. And tbe-e was naucht to do all day But keep out of the eun. At ulclit -we'd sometimes have a hop (Though hating- to take part). Or from tbe iarlor -would arise Sweet "Paddj Duffy's Cart." "When raore than tired of the life "We led from day to day, "We'd .struggle up some mountain s&e. And try to think It play; So, when -we got back home, last year. We cried, with mlcht and main. "How glad we'll be to stay In town "When Summer comes stain!" Bnt, new that Summer Is so near The city's well, sou know. S4 -wlfe'B becun to tell me -where ' Our dlff'rent friends -ulll go; TJTpntalrs, I hear a banjo tuanc The o)d vacation strain"?. And I myself, to toll the truth. Ajh lookin; up the trains. Brooklyn Life. NEGLECT OFPATRONESSES Pehnvlor Approaching Actual XludeneHs of Yonns People at , 'Snjaj-t Reliction. "I wish," said a charming society woman recently, "that you -would say something about the -way the young peo ple of this town treat their patronesses It is simply unbearable, and it is getting worse all the time." If this had been the first complaint of the kind confided to me, I should have been surprised and possibly inquisitive; but, in all probability, I should not have mentioned it. As, however, it is about the Wth time that I have heard it, -with specified details in some cases, it is borne in upon me that no occasion can be moro fitting than the present for an unpreju diced discussion bf a matter of so much importance. "Whether the same condition of affairs prevails elsewhere I will not undertake to say. but our leading society women tiro authority for the statement that a most unpardonable neglect, which amounts. In many instances, to absolute rudeness, characterizes the attitude of the young people of this city toward those whom they ask to serve them in Ihe capacity of patronesses at their par lies, receptions and dances. "When one takes Into consideration the fact that these patronesses are usually women of grace and refinement women -whose so cial position commands respect and def erence, and who&e very presence is an honor to any function it seems almost beyond belief that they should be sub jected to rudeness, and from the very persons at whose earnest solicitation they have consented to serve. Caddish Behavior. It not infrequently occurs (this is at tested by a score of those who have suf fered) that the young men who have pre ferred the request neglect to approach, or in any way recognize the presence of the patronesses during the entire evening. It le enough to try the patience of the most amiable w oman to find that she has made a careful and becoming toilet and gra ciously gone from the comfort of her own fireside to spend fruitless hours in re ceiving guests -who don't, apparently, want to be received, and who assume an air of lofty indifference -when they chance to come in hor vicinltv. The situation is awkward, to say the, least. Does it arise from ignorance, or is it due to careless ness and a contempt for good form? It can hardly be supposed that the young people of today have grown up lacking in opportunity to obtain a work ing knowledge of tho usages of polite society. The conviction, therefore, is forced upon one. unwillingly enough, that the present generation has decided that it can dispense -with its manners Mrs. Sherwood has Just been bewailing the general unlovdUness of the heroine of modern fiction the society girl, who talks slang, who is disrespectful to her elder and who commits the most glaring breaches of etiquette, with the utmost sang froid not from ignorance, but from sheer bravado The modern society girl in fiction, as Mrs. Sherwood regards her, is a menace to the stability of that order which that gifted writer has bulwarked with her pen for the last 25 years, No wonder it causes her alarm! PareholoBrlenl Problem. But I have been wondering whether the girl in current fiction reflected the girl In real Mfe, or whether the girl in real life was influenced by the heroine in print However, that seems to suggest a psychological problem, altogether too deep for disousnion here. Besides, I must siot forget to chronicle the few happen ings of another quiet eek, one of -a hlch was a delightful outing party Tuesday evening. This enjoyable affair was given by Mr". Anna B. Thompson. There w ere 35 guest'. Leaving the city about 5 o'clock, they took the car for Sellweod. where, later In the evening; a delicious luncheon was served, al fresco.
