Red Cross: To a gentleman, every woman is a lady; and therefore you should extend to the women and girls employed in the same building with you exactly the same courtesies that you show to other women.

However, it 19 not nowadays considered necessary for a gentleman to remove his hat in the elevator of any office building, no matter how many Jadies it contains. An elevator should be regarded as a hall or staircase, and unless man will remove his hat on leaving the elevator, he need not take it off on entering. of course he will raise his hat in greeting any lady who is in the lift, or who enters it while he is present, if he is acquainted with her. A gentleman should always remove his hat on entering the elevator of a hotel or an apartment building, whether it contains ladies or not, as it is bad form for a man to wear his hate above the office floor of such a building.
