Here Are Tips for Vacation

Before you dance away, Miss Careless haven't you forgotten something? Your etiquette?

You're the guest, you know, of the frowning young man. How delighted you were when he invited you to this “Saturday night” at the resort’s nicest hotel. But now, when another asks for a dance, you float off without a word.

Mend your manners if you want to be invited again! Introduce the two men graciously. If the newcomer doesn’t say to your escort, “Do you mind” you say it. Then your escort waits with a smile instead of a frown

Indeed you can’t be too careful when you meet a new crowdJust the way you enter the supper room counts. Precede your escort if there's a headwaiter, follow him if there isn't. And it’s up to you – not your escort –to say when to leave any party.

Simple but so important!— Santa Ana Journal Home Service, 1937
