J M. M Perfectly proper but optional I Usually gentlemen Instinctively remove remove re- re move their hats while In a small ellI ell eel closed aria In the presence ot of women I and do not begrudge the effort expended ex- ex I in the courtesy Besides It In a a hotel elevator why NOT in ANY elevator Isn't an elevator ele- ele I vator an elevator and a courtesy a courtesy Usually there Is a good reason for custom Why the one ot of retaining the hat In the streetcar even In the presence ot of women prevails Is obvious obvious ob- ob Streetcars are almot as often orten open as closed and one Is more outdoors outdoors out out- doors than In Ot Of course there are man many and varied arguments which might be offered pro and con but when all Is said and done the fact remains that women admire admIre ad- ad mIre the men who do not stint In their gallantry And since men ot of the finer fiber desire to please the fairer sex men ot of a certain standard will go on through aU all time removing their hats whenever the opportunity affords or at least whenever In doubt To the Kiddies ot of the Who Vho wants a little white fox terrier ter- ter rier for his or ol her very own I know of one that
