Gratitude
For Gifts
THANK You Notes
Should Be Sent
Immediately
BY ANGELO PATRI.

THIS is intended for very young
people but if the older ones feel
that it applies to them, no harm done.
When somebody does you kindness;
shows you hospitality; sends you gift
in any way serves you and gives you
pleasure, take the time and trouble to
send a note of thanks.
A telephone call Is poor substi-
tute for note, but it is better than
nothing. Intimate friends may tele-
phone to each other. but even then.
make special matter of special
favor and write that note
Young people of today are casual be-
yond good breeding. They spend week
end at the home of their school friends
and leave without word, sometimes
without their baggage, which has to
be sent after them. The home they
lived in those few days was not theirs,
nor did it belong to the young per-
sons who invited them. 1t belonged
to the lady and gentleman who paid
the bills and did the work that main
tanned 1t. A word of appreciation is
their due, and no well-bred young
person would overlook that fact.
On birthdays and other anniver-
saries, weddings, graduations, sailings,
young people receive gifts. These
ought to be acknowledged promptly
The old rule that a gift should not
be used until the note of thanks for
It had been mailed, is good one. 1t
reminds the recipient of his debt. If
a gift is worth accepting it certainly
Is worth thank you" note.
Relatives are just as important as
strangers. If granny or uncle or
cousin send a gift the note Of thanks
should follow in the next mail Wait
ing takes the edge OF the gratitude,
and from the warmth Of feeling that
the giver might have had if the note
had arrived on the heels of the gift.
A prompt and gracious thank you"
Is something that keeps alive a feeling
of affection and fellowship. And that,
no matter how old or how self f-srfi-
cient you are, is very important to
happiness.
Children will not thank people, or
write their thank you" notes unless
they are taught, even compelled. to
do so. "Oh, she knows I like it. told
her I wanted it. Aw. 1 don't know
what to say" Knowing what to say
would cure the difficulty. Children
have to be told what to write. Hold
the little ones hand if necessary, and
help him print Thank you, Granny"
Give the beginner note, very brief
and to the point. to copy. Give sug-
gestions to the older ones. Keep at
them until this saying. and writing
Thank you" is set in their minds.
grateful spirit lightens the bur-
den of life. There are many things
to be thankful for every hour of the
day, and it will help children. and
older children, too, to think about
them and feel grateful for them.
There are many people who make life
easier for all of us. 1t will tighten
their day. too. if we stop long enough
to say thank you" and let them know
We are grateful for their help.
In the household where little chill
dren are growing up 1t would be good
to establish the old custom of not
using gift until its thank you" note
had been written.
