Show The League of Politeness. The League of Politeness has been formed in Berlin. It aims at inculcating inculcat-ing better manners among the people of Berlin. It was founded upon the initiative of Fraulein Cecelie Meyer, who was inspired by an existing organization or-ganization in Rome. In deference to the parent organization the Berlin league has chosen the Italian motto, "Pro gentilezza." This will be emblazoned em-blazoned upon an attractive little medal worn where Germans are accustomed ac-customed to wear the insignia of orders. or-ders. The idea is that a glaance at the "talisman" will annihilate any inclination in-clination to indulge in bad temper or discourteous language. "Any polite person" is eligible for membership. |
