our friends and parents. Some per
sons are polite everywhere, but at

too insignificant. How does it sound
to hear a person say yes" and mo

more important in child than good
breeding. While it is comparatively
easy to be polite toward strangers or
toward people of distinction, whom
we meet in society or on public &C.
casions, still it should be remember.
ed that it is at home, in the family
that an everyday politeness is really
