IVORY WEDDING. This is the thirtieth wedding anniversary,
and is not usually celebrated. If,
however, it is done, the invitations may bear
the words: NO PRESENTS RECEIVED, and in accepting
or declining the invitation congratulations
may be extended. Any article of ivory is appropriate
as a gift. An entertainment is usually
provided.
JEWELRY--MEN. Jewelry, except the very plainest,
should not be worn, and in general the less
the better. A display of diamonds and fancy
jewelry betrays the poor taste of the wearer.
A man wearing the pins and badges of
secret societies should see that they are small
and unobtrusive, for in jewelry, as in all
matters of dress, quality rather than quantity
is to be desired.
JR. When the son is named after the father, he
adds Jr. to his name. Upon the death of the
father he omits it. This abbreviation is
sometimes added to a woman's name on her
card when her husband has the same name as
his father, and it is necessary to distinguish
between the cards of the daughter-in-law
and the mother-in-law.
If the mother-in-law should become a
widow and wish to retain the husband's
baptismal name, she should add Sr., while
her daughter would erase Jr.
If both become widows, and wish to
retain their husband's Christian names, the
daughter-in-law should add Jr.
JUSTICE OF THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT--HOW
ADDRESSED. An official letter begins: Sir,
and ends: I have, sir, the honor to remain
your most obedient servant.
