Dreit for Dinner
Dressing up for dinner Is not ex
cluded to the clus8 of people we call
society. It should be a practice ln
every home, even though the dressing
:ip consists of a clean gingham dress.
And it should not be excluded to the
wife and mother, but each Individual
should observe this rule as well. Chil
dren should be taught the bablt ln the

This custom not only takes the
family out of the "shiftless class" bot
aids digestion as well. An unkempt
person at the table spoils the appetite
of the rest of the family and makes

dangers made possible by a practice of this kind thru
the aid of the U. S. PURE FOOD LAWS. However
