Emily Post
Advises

Today's first letter tells me: ::
'My sister took me to task the
other evening, after dining in
her house, for having smeared
lipstick on her best dinner nap
kins. She said that she always
keeps a tissue on hand and wipes
her lipstick off on that and
wouldn't think of wiping it on
her hostess linen. What are
napkins for if not to wipe ones
mouth on? Even if lipstick
stains are hard to get out, I feel
that any extra minutes of
rubbing them clean is part of
the work involved in giving a
dinner. I have had this happen
to me any number of times and
would never think of criticizing
my guests for it. May I please
nave your OplnlOn!
To take a napkin and wipe it
across your mouth 50 hard that
a heavy smear of lipstick comes
off on it can permanently de-
stroy a fine linen one. One who
uses lipstick should learn to turn
ones lips in so firmly as to avoid
smearing any trace of red on the
napkin. with a little practice
this is easily done.)
Who Makes First Move?
Dear Mrs. Post: When hus-
band and wife, or any man and
girl go to see friends together,
which one should make the first
move to leave?
Answer: In the case of a man
and wife, there is no rule. And
although the girl should prop
erly make the first move, the
man may quite well do so if it
becomes necessary
