Jean never had anything like that happen to her before in all her life! She was bursting with it. She wanted your eyes and both your ears corked her way. She wanted you to listen to every single word. She counted on you to react ...surprise, excitement ...gurgles like her own. And what did you do? Were you the perfect listening post? Or did you lend her only one ear and half your wits? Did you fiddle with your bracelet while you waited—impatient and lack-lustre— for her to run down? Were you readying your own story to spring on her? Did you wait for her exclamation point before you topped it with a terrider tale of your own? Some people have ears only for pauses in conversation. Comes a lull for breath and they pounce. As receivers their ears are out. of whack. They can't let anyone else have too much talking time. They specialize in cutting other talkers down ...and out. It's easy enough to do. Interrupting will get the reins in your hands. You can snatch a cue and drive off in your own direction. If you're interrupted in turn, by "as I was saying" efforts to get back to the starting point, you can always dash off at another tangent. You can leave any unfinished saga dangling in midair. Indifference will take all the steam out of a story Aeller."So what?" will deflate him. It will contradict his intenseness, excite ment, preoccupation. You don't have to belittle in words. Your shrugged shoulder, cocked eyebrow, quizzical smile, divided attention will do it. Topping the tale will really put it in its place." But you ought to hear this!" makes such a squashing sound. No reaction from you except a burst of speed to tell a weirder, funnier, more ine triguing story of your own. Really exciting things happen to youl Why should anyone tell you anything if you won't listen? Why should they start anything if you won't let them finish? Why should they share their excitement or their woe with you, if you won't react? Why worry over what you're going to say next.., when you can brush peoples' fur the right way by lending both to what is said to you! 3 oz. bottle 1.50 plus tax ROGER & GALLET EAU DE COLOGNE Perfume • Dry Perfume • ipstick Compact,* Weekend Ernest Vandeweghe, rated teir Coach John Lowther as "the best basketball player in the East, bar Home." will lead the high flying Colgate Raiders in their attack an Rec Hall at 8:30 o'clock.
