Further, Dale learned that

fold was not removed until they
were on one Of the bridges go

therefore. no idea where the

Later that morning Robin

Dale said, "and there may be q

Robin Dale won him over.

The .third-cabin passenger
was Boris Tronski, with an ad-

MANNERS
MRS. Cornelius Beeckman

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
/. While touring the country
by automobile, should one carry
ones own handbags into the
hotel or wait for the bellhop to
get out to the car and bring
them in?
2. A newly married couple
stopping at a hotel: How should
the register be signed, mfr. and
Mrs. John Doe," or "Mr. John
Doe and wife,?
8. Is 1t proper for the brides
parents to send out the mar.
riage announcements after the
ceremony If only the two fanlt-
lies have attended the wedding?
NJ. NJ.
/. BY all means, wait for the
bellboy to take your handbags
into the hotel. It is very undig
nified for you to carry your bags
into the hotel and the hotel
management, even the manage
ment Of the most humble OF
hotels, would be much chagrined
to know that you had done It.
Usually there is a door man Of
the entrance. and he calls the
front" to carry the bags Of Az
irving guests.
2. Mr.. and Mrs. John Doe,
Seattle, Washington, is the cor.
rect form for the signature. It
is extremely poor form to write
"Mr. John Doe and wife"
8. Yes. AS matter Of fact, 1t
is in circumstances like this that
wedding announcements are Of
the greatest Importance and
convenience, for there will then
be many relatives and friends
who are to be notified that the
marriage has taken place.
