Mother"
I love to answer this question,
for I am so enthusiastic about
girls having their own visiting
cards, correctly planned and ex-
cellently engraved. They cannot,
in my opinion, begin too early to
get the correct social conscious
ness about using those charming
details.
Your daughters cards should
read: Miss Carol Alison" Al
though it would not be incorrect
to have only the last name, with
the Miss, this is rarely done now,
and only by older women who
are only daughters. It is far bet
ter and far more appropriate for
her to use her first name, espe-
cially since she has such a fine
first name Also the complete
name makes a better-looking card,
a more balanced card. And be
sure not to omit the title this
should be used, even though your
daughter is so young.
