Emily Post on Etiquette
In referring to office practice,
lie following question would be
uite normal, but concerning a
rivate house, it is very strange
ideed:- “Is it wrong to write
lersonal’ on the envelope of a
ery personal letter to a member
f a large family? I have received
uch letters and no one in my
imily has taken offense. But the
lother of the girl I sent such a
itter to is insulted. Since I didn’t
now the others in the family very
ell, I thought it quite all right
ecause I know that in many fam
ies letters sent to one are con
idered family property.”
It seems impossible that any one
ould think of opening a letter
ddressed to any other member
f the family. In’ other words,
iiere should be no necessity for
utting “personal” on an envelope,
o fact, I wonder if any one who
would think of reading another’s
letter would be deterred by the
word “personal.” i
Reason for Refusing Invitation
Dear Mrs. Post: Is it necessary
to explain the reason tor having
to refuse an invitation?
Answer: To a very intimate
friend you would say, “I’m sorry,
but I am lunching with Mary,” or
“We are going to the Joneses.”
To some one you know only
slightly, you say regretfully, "I’m
so sorry I have another engage
ment.”
If Decorative—Yes
Dear Mrs. Post: Is it in bad
taste to have 'fcmpty vases dis
played in the living rom?
Answer: Ordinary flower con
tainers should be kept in the
closet until filled with flowers.
But vases that have decorative
value of their own are used with
or without flowers.
How Many Guests?
Dear Mrs. Post: What is you:
opinion of using paper plates and
napkins at a wedding anniversary
celebration?
Answer: Of course linen nap
kins and china or glass plates are
to be preferred, but when a suf
ficient number of these would be
out of the question, the substitu
tion of paper items is acceptable
Remember letters are word
pictures of you and should be
written with the greatest of
care. Mrs. Post is sorry she
cannot answer personal mail.
However, her booklet No. 502.
“Letter Writing,” includes de
tails on how to improve the ap
pearance of letters. To obtain
a copy, send 25 cents in coin to
her, care of The Evening Star,
