objectionable table manners

Never drink beverage without first placing a
napkin to your lips. Do not skim soup or any
liquid off the bottom of your spoon by scraping
it on the edge of the dish, and never ask for
second helping of soup. It is as ill-mannered to
put the tip of spoon into your mouth as it is to
allow your spoon to remain in your cup or glass
To butter a whole slice of bread, instead of
breaking it into small pieces and buttering each
piece as you need it, is objectionable. So is US
ing q piece of bread as "pusher" to aid your
fork, and eating off the back of your fork. You
must not lay your knife or fork on the table It
is bad form to touch potato with your knife.
Never permit your elbows to rest on the table.
And it is breach of etiquette to serve gentle
man before all of the ladies have been served,
even though you have very distinguished male
guest.
