When the hostess names the houl
at which the guest is expected, tn
invited party should let nothing in
terfere with his being promptly OF
time. This is the oldest and mos
established rule of etiquette, anc
yet here in Waco it is ''honored il
the breach rather than the observ
ance." The guests, with a few ex
ceptions, straggle in to suit them
selves, not needing the request o
the hostess in the slightest, and thi
sad, but true state of affairs doe
not speak we'll for the good breed
ing of Waco's elite. A
a recent card party the hou
named was $3.50, the last guest bu
one, (who never did materialize, an
who sent no excuse for his absence)
