I wish you could be here to help me purge some more of my books!
I’ve been trying to get to where they are not piled here and there!
Anyway, I found an old Readers Digest Anthology of “getting The Most Out Of Life. It was printed in 1948!
A sweet 75 year old book!
I read one part about how to talk to women, and here is what David Jessup advised “
“If in speaking to a woman, you reveal that you are primarily interested in her personally as a member of the opposite sex, she will instantly resent it, as she has every right to do.
In effect, you are insulting her by the assumption that her attention may be so cheaply won. So speak to here as one human being to another, as one interested in the same scenery, the same music, or the same social problems, and she will extend her ready fellowship.
Both men and women love to use their minds, and women especially regard it as a distinct compliment to be met one the intellectual plane common to both sexes.”
Wise words! That’s how Dads should educate their sons!
How do I part with this sweet book, CB?
*sigh*
That one is a keeper. Don’t give it away!
I think that book is a keeper! old fashioned values, how sweet
I had a friend that had bookcases built all over her house - on every empty wall and even over door and closet frames. it looked really cute (and functional)
