 The guest of bcpcr is the one to he served first. However, If there is an older woman present it is a bit o- charming courtesy to serve her before all others. The custom of serving the hostess first is passee.
 The others, men and women are served in the order Of their seating. The host. therefore, specifics only the first guest to be served.

Christ win convict the people OF their
