THE SUNDAY NEWS, OCTOBER 19S8-35 I ETIQUETTE, by Kitle Turmcll Teenagers Learn Social Know-How In Foursomes NORMAN VINCENT PEALE Gloomy Negativisms Can Breed Disease Dr. Ptalo I ks ttteeeetkistevt 4 Th fastest, most painless way to learn the ins and do's and donta of dating is on the double. Thats the advice of those who keep a professional eye on agers and their problems. Two of these experts, Dr. Rita Bur-j dett, head of programming for the Camp Fire Girls, and Mrs.

Eunice Brunst, national pro- gram adviser for the Horizon Cluhs (Camp Fire teen-age groups), are all for foursome outings especially for the junior high set. Many young teen-agers, uneasy in their first boy-girl situations, just dont know how to keep conversation going, they point out. Obviously, with four to contribute to the chatter, therell be fewer self-conscious gaps. No matter what your age or dating status, some things to do picnics, skating parties, parlor games are the more the merrier activities. Also, ideas about what to do and where to go flow more freely with more than two to make suggestions.

Gain More Friends Expanding your circle of friends is another reason for the fun for four approach, the Camp Fire leaders agreed in a double interview. No matter how much you thrill at the idea of your first steady, youre better off when you meet as many other boys or girls as possible, and learn how to get along with all of them. On the debit side of going double, inability to get along with your dates friends may make your partner think less pf you, they note. Haviag a best friend along sometimes encourages kid stuff behavior like stealing signs. The other couple may neck conspicuously, want to drink or visit places that are off-limits.

When the actions of others makes you uneasy, the best solution is to suggest a change not as though you are sitting in judgment, but as though youd just thought of something wonderful to do, these youth-leaders advise. Aids Process of Learning Most of the problems that come up also arise on single dates. There are always uncomfortable situations that one has to go through in the process of learning. Its easier if youre not alone while the lessons are in progress. Promptness is important on double dates otherwise you keep three waiting.

The boys ought to agree, if vthey can get together beforehand, on where to go; compare the state of their wallets and arrange some pay-as-you-go system to avoid public financial negotiations. Its up to the remainder of the foursome to get the one with the earliest curfew home on time. Finally, good-nights should be short, pleasant, and private. No one wants an audience for his tender moments! Blind Dates When a girl and boy have been dating long enough to know each other fairly well, the question of getting a blind date for her best friend or his favorite chum pops up. A little note-comparing will make sure that the tallest girl in school isnt being paired off with a fellow who just reaches her elbow.

Each of the blind datees could do with some advance information, about the other. He can be told, for example, that shes a whiz on skates. If she knows he cop lects rocks, she, can brush up on her geology. Its up to you and your date lfited spirit. It urges us to lift up our eyes unto the hills.

Because I am writing this rolumn in Switzerland, it is scarcely possible to avoid heeding this Biblical injunction. Perhaps one reason people love Switzerland is that it keeps one constantly looking up, so that presently you actually begin to feel uplifted. One of my favorite places in this gem of a country is a balcony on the hotel at Interlaken. My longtime friend, Ulrick Liggenstrofer, true Swiss host, always keeps this same room and balcony for me. There Ive watched the mighty Jungfrau in all its moods.

Even my bed is so arranged that if 1 awaken early I may watch the great mountain emerge from the dawning mists to meet another day. How many times I have repeated those words as 1 have looked upon the Jungfrau: I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, and felt my spirit rise. They Can Relax All day long, amidst intermittent sun, fog and snow, i have been watching climbers heading upward from near the base of the Matterhorn. All of these mountain climbers seem to have bright eyes. And they have a marked ability to relax.

There is no tension in them, only a quietly expressed joy and friendliness. And now, come e'ening, I am astonished at the sense of peace and happiness within me. Perhaps this really wonderful contentment is from having fellowship with kindly, simple, strong people who themselves possess this uplifted spirit which my doctor friend in London prescribed. So, it is good to live with big things mountains, music, art, big thoughts, great ideas and most important, God. If you are not happy, but very much want to be, I suggest a trial of the prescription, Get your spirit lifted.

YouU enjoy your first dates more if they're foursomes or moresome for group activity. Dating with other couples is the sugar-coated way to learn the hows and whens of boy-girl relations. to go with the boy to pick up his blind date. You perform the introductions girls name first, remember. When she greets you at the door.

Then come the introductions to parents naming them first. If a girl is wise, and time and family-schedule permits, shell offer a cold coke or pop in the kitchen or den to break the ice.

But how can a person feel so badly and still check normally? It just doesn't make sense. 1 The patient, a man in his early fifties, had for a solid hour unloaded a mass of gripes, cynicisms and gloomy negativisms to the London physician who told me of this incident. Arent you aware of the sickening effect of such thoughts and attitudes? the doctor asked.

The physical body is sensitive to mental depression such as yours. Medicine can do nothing for you. In fact, I wont prescribe anything, not even a sedative. But will give you a prescription, and if you follow it I believe you can become a healthy person. Get Your Spirit Lifted The doctor scribbled something on his prescription pad and shoved it across the desk.

The man stared at it. Get your spirit lifted was all that it said. But that is no real prescription, the patient complained. What do you mean, get my spirit lifted? What I mean is that you need some inspiration that will purge your thinking. At present you are hogged down in mental and spiritual darkness.

And diseases breed in such darkness. Better change your outlook. IIow do that? Well, try listening to some high grade music. Read a really great book. Maybe go to Switzerland and live with the mountains for a fortnight.

However you do it, get your spirit lifted or you can expect trouble, concluded the physician. Dont Let Inspiration Sag How right he is. We must ever he on guard lest the zest and inspiration of life sag on us. Youve got to keep the tone up if you really want to enjoy life and be effective as a person. Get your spirit lifted.

What good advice that is! But long before I heard that from a London physician my mother tried to teach it to me as a child. She was a person of boundless enthusiasms. To her everything was exciting. She got an enormous thrill out of living, and even advancing years, together with sickness and suffering, did nothing to dampen her keen and joyous delight in life itself. She taught her children, both by example and advice, that, You can do anything with yourself if you really want to.

How often I heard her say that. But to do that, she warned, you have got to keep in tune with the highest. Never, never let yourself sag. Cultivate a God-replenished spirit and you can always meet life with victorious enthusiasm. That was her philosophy and she drummed it into her three boys.

Always Look Up The Bible, which is always concerned with our welfare, also prescribes the up RALPH AND TERRY KOVEL for four deserving but penniless students he laugh; for nothing.

Consider the case of P. T.

Barnum. He was already 61, endowed with more wordly goods than ever he could find use for, when he first organized the circus that later became known as the Greatest Show on Earth! A star came to New York between pictures with a wad of $5,000 burning a hole in his pocket. Problem: Should he buy a small piece of a pals new musical revue, or get the little woman the mink coat for which she had been yearning? He compromised by buying into the show but promising his wife two coats if it proved to be a hit. After the tryout, the star sent his wife this wire: Ive got bad news for you.

Is Shaker furniture being made today? A. Shakers do not make furniture but small baskets and other items still are being made. Shaker furniture always was simple in design.

So far, this hasnt meant much to most Americans, who look on chess as an intricate pasttime for contemplative graybeards. But now even people uninterested in chess are beginning to feel it would be a fine feather in Uncle Sams cap to have Bobby whip Russias best players in a game that commands great attention in Europe and South America.
