fessionals I'd like to ask to the
church as group and don't want
to send individual invitations.
But how? Answer: Invite as many
as you can as you see them and
ask them to tell others who are
associated with them. Tell them
that you would like them all to
come.
Uncle and Aunt
Dear Mrs. Post: What can I
teach my young children to call
our best friends? Mr.. and Mrs.
is very formal in these instances
and first names I won't permit. I
was taught to say Uncle-and
Aunt-but I'm told that wheh q
family is large and the children
have many real uncles and aunts
it's not fair to the real ones or to
the children to add a lot of make
believe relatives.
Answer: In small families
elected Aunts and Uncles fill q
very real need. but since your re-
latives are evidently numerous
this probably means that Mrs.
Miss and Mister are the only
choice.
Fold Napkin Or Not
Dear Mrs. Post: When staying
in some ones house for the week
end, should the table napkin be
folded after each meal, or left
crumpled at the side of the plate?
Answer: If you don't know
whether the family supplies fresh
napkins at every meal, it would
be better to fold yours back in its
creases and leave it that way. II
a napkin ring is put at your place
you fold it neatly and put it in
that.
Who announces the engage
ment Uhen girl is an orphan?
This and many other questions
which arise regarding engage
ments are explained in Mrs.

ments." To obtain q copy,

tions: Cd How long before the

fore a wedding of important size.
(2) How should two unmarried
sisters be addressed on one en-
velope, or are two invitations nee
essary? Answer: One invitation

same address, to Miss Smith,
Miss Mary Smith" CD When
sending an invitation to parents
who have two half-grown chill
dren, how can I be sure the par
ents do not bring them? Answer
If you have reason to believe that
these particular parents will take
the liberty of bringing children
who are not mentioned in the in
vitation, it will be best to get a
mutual friend to tell them how
much you are regretting the in
ability to invite any children. a.
