Obligations of Guests.

1t may very probably come as a
shock to some people to learn that
guests have obligations, the idea pre-
yailing that these lie on the shoulders
Of the hostess. Indeed, there are some
fortunate persons who are quite salts
fed that as guests they are comforting,
not receiving, obligations by their pres
ence at parties and that having actu-
ally appeared nothing more can be re-
quirea Of them. They are graciously
pleased to eat their hosts dinner and
smoke his cigars or possibly to sit
through the concert or whatever enter
tainment he may have provided and
when leaving, having perhaps, perhaps
not, shaken their hostess by the hand
and murmured, ssSueh a pleasant par
ty!" they consider they have fulfilled
all social duties. That they have TALK
ed through the music Or yawned in
the drawing room after dinner or have
been obviously bored by their partner
at dinner is, Of course, not their fault,
and they feel perfectly justified in
picking holes in the entertainment and
remarking to their various friends:
"Were you at the So-and-so's last
night? My dear, what a crush! SO
badly managed / got only a grape for
supper. And poor Y. sang all out OF
tune. Dear me! Why do people give
parties like that?" Why, indeed. If that
Is all the pleasure they afford their
friendsf
AS a matter of fact, however, this
kind of thing is often a pose. The ap-
parently disgusted guests have prob
ably enjoyed themselves very much
and would be horribly annoyed If par
ties like that were not given and furi-
GUS If they were not asked to them.
Often, too, they are really quite |
hearted persons, but 1t has never &C.
| Cured to them that guests at a party
| should contribute toward its success.
Now, there are two motive powers
which 60 to produce the good guest;
either will do It, but when they work
! together the perfect guest is the result.
These motive powers ire good feeling
and good breeding. The man or wom-
an who is aetuated by either OF these
principles will not be rude or casual
or obviously bored. to mention only a
few OF the characteristics of the mod
ern party goer. But, while good feeling
will prevent one from doing what
would wound r annoy ones hostesss
| good breeding and q knowledge Of the
ways Of the world are needed TO pro-
duce the finished guest. Without this
knowledge one win be nervous. self
! conscious and, lacking ease, win not be

Cultivate a sense OF humor. There
