"GOOD MANNERS SOCIETY"
Members may not speak to each other in a group that has been formed at Kriishevatz, Yugoslavia—with the title of "The Good Manners Society." When the silence rule is broken it is expensive for the transgressor. If it occurs at one of the society's frequent meetings in a cafe he must pay for all the food and drink consumed by his fellow members as well as pay a fine into the society's funds. But members have "forgotten their manners" so many times already that the funds of the group, solely supported by fines, have already been able to clothe thirteen poor boys in new suit*.
