When Manners Are Correct

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
about two weeks ago / had a
formal dinner at one of the local
hotels, and the question involved
and one in which 1 am very inter
eSted is as follows:
us it proper for the host and
hostess to greet the guests as they
arrive, or should each guest, on
arriving, seek out the host and
hostess in order to greet them?
Cd"
The hostess, when she is re-
ceiving her guests before a dinner
at a hotel, usually stands in the
same place during the receiving.
A guest, as he or she arrives,
leaves wraps in the coat room and

TOO LOYAL

Dear Miss Fairfax:
81 saw him and was interested
in him many times, and then we
were finally introduced at a party,
But, because q friend Of his calls
on me now and then, he will never
ask for q date. He thinks too
much of this friend to even make
an attempt.
what can do to show him
that this friend means nothing
whatever to me?
THANK YOU"
Sometimes a little franknesS Is
the best solution Of a problem and
is far better than beating around
the bush. Take the occasion to
say that the friend is only a casual
acquaintance and that, as nice as
he is, you're not interested in each
other.

when they are receiving their
guests, the guest is the one who
approaches his or her hosts.
And, further, the guest should
keep in mind that he or she goes
first to the hosts-doesn't, in other
words, stop to greet other guests
before the hosts have been greeted.
The same thing holds true at a
tea party or at a cocktai1 nortv
or at any other kind Of party.
The guest first goes dlIecvIy W U.le
hostess or to the hosts before
greeting or talking with other
guests. This is the guests first
social responsibility on entering a
party.

then comes to the place where the
hostess and hosts are. The guest
goes directly to the hostess to be
received" In other words, it is
the guest who seeks out the
hostess.
With the host it might be bit
different. The host, to be a CO.
operative host, might mingle
more with the guests, and he might
not stand with his wife to do the
receiving, or he might, if he and
she wish. He might calamity be
on the lookout for the arrival of
guests, and might escort them to
his wife, the hostess. If the
hostess and host stand together
