Correct Way
TOUSe Tea
Napkins
No Rule Prescribed
For Proper Width
To Be Opened
By Emily Post

There Is no rule as to whether a
tea napkin be opened for half its
width, or for its whole width, but in
any case woman lays it across her
lap and puts the tea plate down on
1t, and holds the cup and saucer in
her left hand. But since mans
lap Is likely to divide and let what
may be on it fall to the floor, he
lays his napkin over one knee and
either finds a nearby table edge to
put his plate on or else contents
himself with his cup and saucer and
declines the circumference Of
plate.
In short. this explains why small
individual tables, on which each per-
son can put down his or her cup
and saucer and tea plate, are essen
tial to comfort - unless nothing
served with the tea Is larger or
harder to manage than a "two-bite"
sandwich or a macaroon, and the
rim of the saucer Is therefore
adequate.
Dear Mrs. Post: Please tell me
what a member of a speakers own
family. or, for that matter. even a
very dear friend should do about
applauding with the rest of the
audience. Is 1t not better taste for
such persons to sit without ap-
plauding?
Answer-Even though I think best
taste would exact that nearest
member of the family sit quietly
and look pleased, it is not likely that
any one would criticize her If she
followed the applause-lightly and
briefly as to clapping and broadly
as to smiling. The intimate friend
also should go along with the
audience and not try to force its
continuance.

Floral Designs

Spring flowers are blooming every
where on the new dresses. Daisies
arranged along a low cut, square
neckline make q navy afternoon

Color in Curtains

Color comes to curtains this sea-
son, and novelty weaves are news,
too.
Color is splashed on white or
creamy backgrounds effectively,
while other marquisette curtain ma
terials feature white dots on colored
surface Some multicolors are being
shown and gay cotton prints adorn
sheers, particularly for cottage sets.
Weaves will include embroidery
on all-white curtains Of cotton like
organdie, voile or dimity.

Although the admiral was optimis-

any extravagantly rosy views.
