Today I'm speaking of en-
barraSSing episodes and
about my little friend, Mrs.
inexperienced, who was in
volved in one the other eve
ming. Her description of 1t
to me bears out the old say
ing Foresight is better than
hindsight!"
Mrs. Inexperienced's hus-
band was out Of town when
one of his important busi-
ness clients arrived unex-
pectedly from New York. &C.
companied by his wife.
knowing that her husband
would wish her to entertain
them. Mrs. inexperienced in
vited both to be her guests
for dinner at a downtown
hotel.
They Had to Wait
Meeting them at the APP
pointed time, she was a little
disconnected because they
had to wait some time before
q table could be procured.
Finally, upon being seated,
Mrs. inexperienced suggested
several expensive dishes on
the menu receiving hearty
agreement from her guests.
When the check was pre-
sented, the gentleman in
sisted upon paying it. An
argument ensued. Mrs. In
experienced feeling very UNI
happy over the whole stu
alton because, as she ex-
pressed it. after all, it was
HER party" Also, she was
pretty sure that it was more
than her husbands client
could afford. Mrs. mex
perienced. however. insisted
upon paying the tip.
Foresight would have saved
the evening and Mrs. Iney-
perienced's equilibrium. When
a woman acts as hostess and
host combined and men are
among her guests, it is ex-
tremely advisable that she
make all financial arrange
ments prior to the party.
The Right Way
Mrs. inexperienced would
have saved herself this en-
barraSsment if she had gone
to the headwaiter at the hotel
before the dinner. First a
table should have been re-
served. It isn't very thought
full to keep ones guests watt
ing. Then the dinner in it's
entirety should have been
ordered and paid for, includ-
ing the tip to the waiter. An
alternative is to have a credit
card at the hotel so that
when situations such as this
occur one may sign the check.
In passing I might mention
that Mrs. inexperienced
showed rather bad taste in

Foresight Would Have Helped
Prevent Embarrassing Situation

arguing with her guest when
the check was presented. This
only made a bad matter
worse. Then, too, If the gen.
tleman did pay the check. he
should have been the one to
tip the waiter. Caught in a
web of her own making, Mrs.
inexperienced should have
acquiesced graciously and not
subjected her guests to her
own embarrassment.
Questions and Answer:
Question: have recently
announced my engagement
and have been receiving con-
gratulationS on all sides
from my friends. Am I wrong
in thinking that these con-
gratulations are misplaced?
MRS. L. S. H.
Answer-You are abso-
lutely correct. The congratu-
lations should go to your
flance. Good wishes for your
future happiness should be
bestowed upon you, never
congratulations.

Question: wish to write

sentative. How do I address
her and what is the saluta-
ton? MRS. T. j. C.

Question: run around
with a group Of young mar
ried people who are very
kind about including me in
some Of their get-togethers.
I am a bachelor. Several
times recently they have
asked me to bridge parties.
I would like very much to go
to these. but as 7 do not play
bridge, / am wondering if I
should accept. What do you
think? MR.. w, T. j.
Answer would strongly
advise your not accepting an
invitation to a bridge party
when you do. not play. This
is one instance when an extra
man will not be looked upon
with favor by the hostess.
