Etiquette Knowledge is Key for Girls

The well-bred girl waits for her escort to open the car door. If she bounces out by herself, she makes it appear to the man's embarrassment that he doesn't know his etiquette. 

Men Like Girls Who Know Their Etiquette

Knowing what's expected of her and of her escort in public certainly gives a girl enviable poise. The well-bred girl waits for her escort to open the car door. If she bounces out by herself, she makes it appear to the man's embarrassment that he doesn't know his etiquette. 

The girl of poise knows, too, that a man is expected to rise when she enters a room. She seats herself quickly to spare him the discomfort of standing long. In a restaurant she indicates her wishes to her escort does not address the waiter directly. 

She knows the proper form for introductions, what to say when the dance is over, how to conduct herself at the table. Learn the code of social usage! – Home Service, Santa Ana Journal, 1936
