ARCHBISHOP OF ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH--HOW ADDRESSED.
An official or social letter begins:
Most Reverend and Dear Sir, and ends: I
have the honor to remain your humble servant.
The address on the envelope is: The Most
Reverend John J. Wilson, Archbishop of Kent.
ARTICHOKES are eaten with the fingers, taking off leaf
by leaf and dipping into the sauce. The
solid portion is broken up and eaten with a
fork.
ASPARAGUS. The stalks may be taken between the
finger and the thumb, if they are not too
long, or the green end may be cut off and
eaten with a fork, scraping off with the
knife what is desired from the remaining
part.
AT HOMES.
AFTERNOON AT HOMES. The days for receiving
are engraved in the lower left hand
corner of the card, with hours specified if one
wishes.
No changes should be made in these hours
by the hostess unless for exceptional reasons,
and she should always be present at the
time set.
Unless very intimate, the call should be
made only on the specified days.
BACHELORS. It is not customary for a bachelor
to use "At Home" cards as a woman does,
nor to invite his friends by writing a date
and Music at four on his calling-cards in
place of an invitation.
DRESS. In the afternoon the caller should wear
afternoon dress, and in the evening evening
dress.
ACKNOWLEDGING INVITATIONS. Invitations to
an ordinary at home need no acknowledgment.
INVITATIONS. Cards for an "At Home" are engraved
with the hour for beginning the
entertainment--as, Chocolate at 4.30 o'clock.
The invitations to a formal "At Home"
should be sent in two envelopes, but to an
ordinary "At Home" in one envelope. For
informal affairs the hour may be written on
an ordinary "At Home" card.
BACHELORS' DINNERS. They follow the usual custom
of formal dinners, and may be as elaborate as
desired. Women may be invited. Such
dinners are often given for men only.
CALLS. Women do not call upon a bachelor
after attending a dinner given by him.
CHAPERONE. If women are present, a married
woman as chaperone is indispensable, and
her husband must also be invited. The host
should call upon the chaperone and personally
request the favor.
