“Good Etiquette Enhances Charm”

When the car stops, she doesn't leap out, but waits for him to show his good manners by coming around to assist her.

Little Courtesies Bring Dates!

What grand times Helen and Dick have together! He treats her like a queen because she's as thoughtful and friendly as she is smooth-mannered. 

When the car stops, she doesn't leap out, but waits for him to show his good manners by coming around to assist her.

At a restaurant, she lets him give the order to the waiter after consulting her. If she has shopping to do, she's pleased to have him carry her parcels.

But she shows her appreciation of his courtesy, too. Dining out, she considers his pocketbook. Shopping she doesn't make him a walking dray.

And at sports Helen claims no favors. She chases her own tennis balls takes defeat without sulking, victory without crowing. Cultivate the good manners and courtesy that attract interesting new acquaintances, lead to lasting friendships. – Santa Ana Journal, 1937
