STRICTLY speaking the Invitation
bidding a young man to be the
guest of a household should come
from the mother or wife, or whoever
acts as hostess of that household.
Actually one young man often Invites
a chum of his to be a guest for a
day or I -vo, and the mother does not
send the letter of Invitation that the
strictest good form would demand.
There Is no great crime In this, only
the young man who writes the lnvlta
tlpn should word, It so. as to roaj lt
evident that his mother extenaa the
hospitality, and In answering the In
vitation the one invited should be sure
to bear this fact In mind and whether
he has met the hostess-to-be or not
he should express his gratitude to her
for her kindness In wishing him to be
a guest.
If you have visited In the house be
forg It Is courteous to take to your
hostess, or have sent, so that it reaches
her shortly before you do, with your
card enclosed, a few flowers or some"
bonbons.
Never smoke without gaining per
mission of your hostess. If there are
no other smokers in the family do not
ask for permission. '
If you see that others make a habit
of smoking In the house then you may
ask for permission to smoke, even
though none of. the others are smoking
nt the time.
Do not plan to accept outside In
vitations or to leave the honse when
you are a guest without consulting
your hostess. She may have .some
thing arranged for the same day and
hour. If- you are to have very Im
portant business engagements ' that
cannot be broken during your'' visit
you Rbould make the fact known at
once so that no plans will be made for
the time Involved.
Remember that while you art the
guest of the family you should show
many little courteous attentions to the
women of that family, h there are
young daughters It would be decidedly
rude to devote yourself markedly to
some other young woman whom yon
perhaps might feel more Interested In
than in the young wodien of the family
where yon are visiting. '' f ;
Remember' that It ,la Just as Im
portant and necessary - for the young
man to .write a bread-and-butter letter
to his hostess" as It la for a young
woman to do. ' This letter should, be
written within one or two days of your
departure. A married man muj leave
this to his wife to attend to but the
unmarried man must write for him
self, even though perhaps he has a
sister who has been t guest of the
ftatne household and Is willing to In
clude hie expression of gratitude In
her note, r . ' - r- ' l 'f.- ,
