Boys, Girls and Manners (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Boys, Girls and MannersThus Mr. Spencer tells us that among the natives of Australia, Strangers meeting must remain some time silent: a mile from an encampment, approach has to be her alded by loud cooeys: a green bough is used as an emblem of peace, and brotherly feel ing is indicated by an exchange of names.This same idea about the green bough prevailed among the ancient Greeks. On the frieze of the Parthenon, some of the sculptured figures have branches in their hands. These are the women from other lands who hold the boughs in token of peace and friendship.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
