I've: •.been thinking about .Court-
esy. Like greatness, some .people
seemto. be ' born with it, and
some; achieve it, For. those who
aohieve it, you have the type
who . practises it,' as if it were
born with him, a natural instinc-
tive' courtesy. This can be cul-
:.tivated, but it: springs.. from '.a
sincere, desire to smooth the 'way
for. oether people;. and there ..is np'
affection :about it. 'Itis one of
'the little' ways,, of practising the
•G.old•eni`Rule. ,
Then • you • have the: type who
practise courtesies, because they
figure :it is going to get • them-
selves •somewhere or ,something.
They open ,,a, door .for you;or
pick` up your' gloves with a blare
of trumpets, figuratively 'speak_ ,
ing. That isn't. the most comfort
able .kind. to. be.subj'ected to, but
it's ,better than' none,. ' "
This •is. what I'an coming at-L--

the bus, and• since., I •had . told roy' • '
'farrnily that the •bus was' due halt

was no one :to, meet' me. I. was
carrying. •a'''small, traivelling bag.
and a large shopping -bag filled to:
capacity:' • I • stopped .. in ':a drug
store on my way home to make
a couple of pruchases;. and, when
I cane out, T picked up ' my two
bags, expecting . that . the drug-.
•gist himself, who was standing
about three feet from• the •door,,.
Would. give'• me an open exit. He
'was.:i~arrying on ,.a desultory con-
versation . with another man, but
was facing.' me as I approae.hed
the :door:
At the • door,- I hesitated; 'a
moment, :then` carefully deposit-,
.ed my "well -laden bag and open
•ed the •door. By this time I was:.
getting' interested in . how far he
was .going to let me proceed with-
-out yelp. I, opened the :door, .pick-
ed up •:my bag; set ' it down. on
-the street which was about five
inches deep' in soft, freshly -fallen '
snow, and closed the door:.
As h`faced -yin,', in;: -_the act of
•closing the door, I`piaid`particular
attentions to expression. I:ex,
pected chagrin, apology.:or a'coni
