Manners Are Like Primary Colors,

To The Old Saying That Man Built The House But Woman Made Of It A 'home' Might Be Added The Modern Supplement That Woman Accepted Cooking As A Chore But Man Has Made Of It A Recreation.

Good Manners Reflect Something From Inside-an Innate Sense Of Consideration For Others And Respect For Self.

Elbows Are Never Put On The Table While One Is Eating.

The Only Occasion When The Traditions Of Courtesy Permit A Hostess To Help Herself Before A Woman Guest Is When She Has Reason To Believe The Food Is Poisoned.

In Popular Houses Where Visitors Like To Go Again And Again, There Is Always A Happy Combination Of Some Attention On The Part Of The Hostess And The Perfect Freedom Of The Guests To Occupy Their Time As They Choose.
