house and has a brick patio run

warmth of yesterday practically
everybody congregated there.

I Emily Post |
A very indignant reader writes:
“Never, never, Mrs. Post does one
pour into the saucer. No house
wife or waitress should ever be
told to do such a thing! The
place for this saucer-coffee is
down the drain! I was much
surprised that you advised a wait
ress to put it back into the cup,
wipe off both saucer and bottom
of cup, and serve it.
In answer. I certainly didn’t
mean to offer this as general
practice. But as I understood this
particular situation, the hotel
waitress was at a long distance
from the kitchen, and under the
circumstances, I could see no ob
jection to pouring a small amount
—
of coffee, that she had spilled
over into a perfectly fresh saucer,
back into the cup. (I agree that
this was not perfect service.)
Sending Graduation
Announcements
Dear Mrs. Post: Just who should
be sent graduation announce
ments? Or maybe I’d better ask
just who may they be sent to?
Answer: To everyone who might
be supposed to have any interest
in this occasion.
Flowers to Ex-Wife's Relation
Dear Mrs. Post: My ex-wife’s1
sister died and because of a long,
and continuing friendship withj
her and her husband, I sent flow-!
ers. I wrote only my name on1
the card inclosed, but have since
wondered if I sould have included
ray present wife.
Answer: If your present wife
was at all well-known to them,
I think perhaps it would have
been best to have included her
name.
Bridegroom Will Be M. D.
Dear Mrs. Post: At the time our
wedding invitations are engraved,
my fiance will not have received
his M. D. degree. At the time
of our wedding he will be a doctor.
At any rate it looks that way.
What title may be used on the
invitations?
Answer: Assuming that there is
no chance of his not having his
degree when the invitations go
out, then surely doctor may safely
be used on them.
