Cleanliness In All Places Appeals To Mrs. B. Williams Edmonton, Alta., Mar, 25.--The cleanliness in all places -- shops and hotels -- and the scrupulous way that food is kept clean and un- contaminated, is one of the features of life in Canada that appeals to Mrs. Barnsby Williams, wife of the eminent English actor, wuo has been playing in Edmonton. That the average man and busi- ness girl have many more advan- tages in the way of getting meals at cafes, is another feature of life here that Mrs, Williams admires. 'At home we are quite behind and in some provincial cities one cam- not get even a cup of tea after the performance at night. Compared to prices at home, these meals are so cheap." : Mrs. Williams has also heen struck by the willingness of the women attendants in the stores to serve and please, The warm rooms with no cold passages as in England are a de- light. - The civility and courtesy of the men folk to their women folk in the hotels and other public places is another characteristic which intersts this traveler always watching for something of human interest.

This sounds very condemning and as it probably makes you wonder, so it made the minister and the writer wonder. Men as a rule do not con- demn women that way and surely, the writer thought, that man did not mean that women uttered a falsehood with every statement they made. The manager did not mean that. He was not judging women he knew in social or private life but was condemning the women who came into his store. That should make us notice too that men do not judge us entirely from a social standpoint but as they see us in their everyday life. This man was correct to a certain degree. He said that women came into the store and asked to see things and then they would say, "I'll talk it over with so-and-so and if they think that they would like it I'll buy it"; or, "I haven't the money with me just now but I'll come in to- morrow." If that is the case it is perfectly all right to say it, but how many times have you readers said the same thing and way down deep in your heart you haven't the least intention of buying it. Think of the clerk. You go into a store and ask to see some damask tablecloths. He brings out a number and you look at them, deciding that maybe you would rather see a luncheon cloth. The tedious work begins of pulling the parcels down from the neat rows on the shelf and opening the package. Maybe the color isn't just right or the linen is too coarse. The sales- lady is trying to be obliging and wishes to make a sale so she asks you if you would like to see the new colored cloths they have recently purchased. Again the work of pull- ing down and untying begins. After you have taken almost a complete in- ventory of their stock you remark, "I'll come in tomorrow and buy it." Maybe there are half a dozen cash customers waiting to buy 'something and they are kept waiting while the saleslady displays their wears to you, when you haven't the least intention of buying. You have to admit that it is a bad habit to acquire and it is also tiresome to the salesladies. The clerks in a store are paid to oblige and satisfy the customers so it is their duty to show those things to you with the hope that you will really return at a later date and pur- chase some. For that reason we may dismiss the clerks from our con- science--but all the same they haye feelings to consider. It is being deceitful to a. Nth de- gree and unknowingly more women are adopting this custom, When you go into a store. is it any more diffi- cult to say that you are just looking at something without the intention of buying and let the clerk judge her attitude accordingly than to let the clerk travel under the illusion that you have serious intentions? A little frankness is a delight to a clerk as well as to anyone else. Can you count how many times you have gone into a store to buy a dress and they show you some ter- rible styles and instead of saying they aren't the styles you want you say that you will come back later and try them on. You know it might be a great help to the buyer of the store if you would remark that those are- n't the best styles and then maybe they would change them. At any rate why lie about the purchase? Tell the truth, If the little child comes into the house and says a little white lie so that someone will not get in trouble or in order to save themselves a spanking and then the lie is discov- ered nine mothers out of ten would turn around and either give them a long lecture or give them a whipping for being deceitful, Then the mother puts on her hat and coat, goes to town and tells the saleslady that she will buy an uncontemplated purchase tomorrow when she knows as well as the clerk does that she won't buy it. The stores should have spanking ma- chines built so that when women like this go out of the door they receive a spanking for being deceitful. We all admit that women do not realize that they are uttering a false- hood at the time that they make the statement but they must remember trat there are the clerks and the man- agers to judge the characters of those people whom they meet in business every day. For that reason when you are going to say that you will come back later and buy it or if someone else would like it, think and if you really mean it, then tell her so but if you are only saying it to make an excuse for not buying, leave it unsaid. The saleslady would ap- preciate it, so would the manager and you would feel better for saying the truth or nothing at all.
