Good Manners at the Table

Good Manners at the Table
Table conversation should be
cheerful and pleasant. and; Of such
that everyone may take part. A
hostess will endeavor to give each
guest "a chance to talk. i She will
avoid discussions 9of unpleasant
tops as an operation, serious ac-
cident, filth, etc.. One should avoid
heated arguments. It is, there
fore, desirable not to discuss polit-
ical or religious beliefs when
strangers are present.
Cheerfuls conversation makes a
successful meal. It always is a
first aid to good digestion. Each
member at the table is responsible
for proper conversation.
Sit upright at the table. Do not
! lounge in the chair or lean on the
table. Do not twist your feet
around the rungs of the chair. It
is best to keep. the elbows off the
table. Between courses, it is per-
niissable to lean on: your elbows
while talking. This custom pre-
walls in public eating places where
noise makes it difficult to hear the
conversation of others at the table
In eating, keep the. elbows fairly
close to your side. Don't inter
fere with your neighbor's eating.
Never reach in front of a per.
son. If you wish something, ask
to have it passed. FL
Keep the tablecloth clean. Avoid
spots and unnecessary crumbs
When silver is once used, never
The Arizona gleam., 1937-01-29

rest in on the tablecloth, as it is
no longer perfectly clean. Place
such silver on the plate or saucer
where it is safe. from causing q
possible accident. fl al, :-:.: :.-~s>
If asked to pass, food, place the
serving silver in the dish if there
is any, and pass the dish to the
one next to. you. Have the handle
convenient for him to take. The
hostess may say, Help yourself
to the bread and pass it." In that
case only, help yourself first.
Tidiness Of personal appearance
is never at higher premium than
at the table.
Never put your fingers in your
mouth at the table, nor pick the
teeth. Do not touch or arrange
your hair. Do not stir your food
all together before beginning to
eat. Your. plate must never look
unsightly.
In case of accident. simply ex-
press a regret; be not too pro-
fuse. The hostess must change
the conversation so as to cover
any embarrassment. Undue en-
barrassment only, increases the
awkwardness Of the situation.
If asked to express choice of
food, do so at once. IF not, take
what is served without comment.
Do not show a dislike for any
food served lest the hostess be un-
! comfortable. In case you do not
, care for a course, do not refuse
| it. Take a small portion and try
to eat some of it. BY more at
tention TO- the conversation your
dislike will not be notice.

reply to some question. Take
