246 - L Aug. 18; ed: 2/1 - There are but few blessings which men and women
of culture esteem more highly than those of social life, when conducted
with such understanding that free play is allowed for the higher emotions.
People who isolate themselves from other human beings assuming a haughty
air, and retire within themselves as a clam or oyster might do, are not
normal.
"Society that is stiff, formal, ceremonious, more concerned about the
cut of your hair and the shape of your boots than about your brains or
common sense, is not adapted to calling forth the social powers of man,
and is undesirable.
"If true social enjoyment is to be experienced, genuine social culture
to be realized, it must be a free sympathic interchange of ideas and
impressions." (17)

his way home to Indianapolis. ... He spoke in a whisper and something in his
bearing caused suspicion of his sex. Upon cross-examination "he" proved
to be a "female" She was put in the custody of the Ladies Aid society.
