tended an informal party at
the Inexperienceds. When I
arrived. a maid escorted me to
the door of the terrace where
everyone was gathered. l
spent five uncomfortable min
utes waiting for Mrs Inexperi-
enced to realize that l was
there. She was completely
occupied in seeing that her
other guests were served
drinks and canapes.
At long last, I caught her
eye and she hustled over and
greeted me effusively. 1t so
happened that I was not &C
quainted with any of her other
guests. She saw fit to ignore
this entirely. After the amen
tiles were over, she rushed of
with the comment that she
must "see how supper was
coming along A kind.
thoughtful guest came to my
rescue, walked up, made her
self known and in turn in
troduced me to some of the
others.
Now 1 am sure that Mrs. In
experienced did not mean to
be rude. She was merely
thoughtless. While We all
know that to be a guest under
a friends roof serves as an
introduction to others present.
it is, nevertheless, embarraSs-
ing to face a room full OF
people you do not know.
Therefore, a hostess should
guard against forcing guests
to introduce themselves when
they first arrive, rule or no
rule.
Stay Close to Door
To begin with. until every
one has arrived, a hostess
should remain close to the door
in order to greet her guests i'm
mediately upon their entrance.
1t is certainly extremely un-
gracious to allow a newcomer
to stand and wait for recog-
milton. After greeting a guest
the hostess should then intro
duce her to those standing, or
sitting nearby. If there are
not too many other guests
present, all should be intro
duced. Naturally this is i'm
possible if the crowd is large
one.i
If the people are arriving too
fast for the hostess to break
away and do the introducing
herself, it is a kindness. and a
courtesy, to designate a few
friends to take over after she
has greeted the new arrivals.
Under no condition should
anyone be left standing lonely
and forlorn in a corner.
Avoid Uneasiness
1t is to be remembered that
introducing person to a group
is a social amenity that all too
often is bungled. If the fol-
lowing procedure is adhered to
all chances of uneasiness
should be avoided.
The hostess greetS the new
conner. then turn S to those
nearby, saying: Mrs. Jones,
may present Mrs. Oliver, Mr..
and Mrs. Hall and Miss Han
son." Each person being intro
duced should smile and bow
his head slightly saying: How
do you do?" Mrs. Jones should
acknowledge each introduc-
ton by a return smile and
slight bow. If the group is a
small one she will make the
friendly gesture of offering to
shake hands with each guest
to whom she is presented. 1t is
to be noted that when intro
ducing a person to a group,
his or her name is mentioned
only once, and is mentioned
first.
The designation of "a good
hostess" will never be assigned
to the person who neglects to
observe the little amenities,
like the above. that mean so
much.

Q. I am a Government girl
and expert to be married next
month. l am an orphan with
no relatives to issue the
invitations for the small cere-
mony l expect to have. I do
not have any friends that ]
care to have do so. Is it per-
Missile for me to issue the
invitations myself. or would
this be completely out of line?
Miss L. II. b.
A. 1t is perfectly correct that
you extend your own invitation.
For example. the wording
would be as follows: Miss Jean
Ann Brown and Mr.. James
Allan Smith request the honour
of your presence at their mar
riage." Then the day. the date,
the time and the place are

The pages of history were
turned back this week to an
event many people have long for
gotten. when the 500th anniver-
sary Of the death Of st. John
Capistran was observed in the
Franciscan Monastery.
The event was the victory of
a small Hungarian army. led by
Capistran and John Hunyadi,
over an invading Turkish army
at Belgrade in 1856. Historians
consider this one of the key
battles in preventing Islam from
overrunning Europe in the 18th
century.
Franciscan friars from many
parts of the country. in their
brown habits and capouches, at
tended a solemn pontifical mass
in the monastery commemo-
rating Capistran's death. Capis-
tran raised force of 10000
peasants to supplement the small
regular army headed by Gen
Hunyadi Numbering $4,000 to-
9ether, the nondescript force de-
feated the l50,O00-man Turkish
army in one of the miraculous
victories of all time.
The Right Rev. Msgr. John
K Cartwright, rector of st. Mat
theW's Cathedral, drew numerous
parallels between conditions in
the 18th century and today dur
ing his sermon.

President of Hapoel Hamizrachi
of America and Rabbi Mordecai
Kirshblum. President of Mizrachi
Organization of America.
Minister Shapiro, a cabinet
minister in the Government of
Israel since the establishment of
the Jewish State, has a long and
brilliant record on behalf of his
fellow Jews that stretches back
almost forty years. A member of
the Zionist Actions Committee, he
first went to Israel in 1926 as di-
rector of the World Movement of
Hapoel Hamizrachi. Later, he
organized the rescue of Jews in
Nazi Europe as head of the Immi-
grafton Department of the Jewish
Agency. It was a natural step
from this to Minister of Immi-
grafton and Health in 1948, and
Moshe Shapiro signed the first
