With its usual agility at making quick changes, Kansas springtime weather turned to summertime over the weekend to make Hill climbers wish for just a dash of the sub-zero temperatures suffered during the winter and to put picnics in first place on the social docket. The further away from home the better was the the byword for basket lunch toters and hayrack riders. Tonight students will picnic and dance at chapter houses, or,
if they are mentioned to help the Chinese students, they will starve socially at the Bowl of Rice supper.

College Rules Are Simple Once You Know Them
You cannot fail to gain the advantage of a likable approach if you consider your good manners. Rules of etiquette were contrived to make life more pleasant and to make the social machinery run smoother, so why not be correct?
College introductions are simple if you remember that a man is always introduced to a woman. When introducing small groups it is best to use first and last names instead of conventional titles. "Miss Smith, Mr. Jones," is correct but a less formal introduction would be:
Here is the correct form for titles of the faculty: When meeting a professor socially, if he holds the title of doctor, call him that; otherwise call him "professor." If he is an instructor, call him "mister."
The following rules should be observed when cutting in at a dance: The partner who was first dancing with a girl must not cut back on the man who took her from him, though he can cut in on a third man. He
Jean Smith, this is Bill Jones.
The reply to an introduction is,
"How do you do?" When men are introduced to each other they always shake hands. When a man is introduced to a woman it is her place to offer her hand or not, as she chooses. She does not remove her glove when she offers her hand.
To be acceptable, slang in your conversation must be fresh and applicable. To be most effective, it should be used sparingly. A tactless person rushes into the conversation with what ought not to be said.
Since nearly all rules of etiquette are elastic, the suitable thing, useful for the occasion is in good taste. If you would make yourself liked, become enthusiastic about the interest of others, and generous in outward expressions and good manners.
