Snobbishness.

PUT IT DOWN TO SHYNESS.

The more I observe my fellow- creatures the more convinced I am that an inordinate number of them are hiding their lights under the bushel of shyness. Indeed, the not-easily discerned outcome of diffidence, and self-consciousness may cover a multitude of inherent virtues.

Shyness manifests itself, and libels its owner in so many tire- some ways. In some people it in duces a brusque manner, in others one of meekness and indecision. It may express itself in a ceaseless flow of breathless chatter, or an unresponsive silence that leads fellow-beings to diagnose a state bordering on mental deficiency, It even assumes the form of pig-head-1 cdness, of wary suspicion, of snob- bishness, and other divers unat- tractive attributes.

But for most it means that they are invariably at their worst in the company of others; in a commercial world they are physically unable to put their goods in the window. They seem to repel friendly ad- vances, to be mean in returning hospitality and in short, to be stand-offish, though all the time one realises they would be worth while as friends.
