CARD ETIQUETTE The significance of a card is always considered by well-bred men and women, and its fitness to the occasion is an expression of its owner's individuality; in fact, the card is the beginning and the end of etiquette-the introduction and the farewell. A written name should never be used unless the bearer's formal cards are beyond reach. Ladies' visiting cards should be nearly square, fine in texture, flexible and of a soft white. Changes in form of course occur, but these are the characteristics for those who respect good form. It is imperative that Mrs. or Miss should be placed before the name upon the engraved card. Initials are seldom seen. It is proper to use the husband's complete name. During a young girl's first season in society her name is engraved upon her mother's card. If she is the eldest unmarried daughter she is appended as Miss Smith, otherwise her full name is given with the prefix of Miss. When two daughters enter society together it is proper for them to be mentioned upon their mother's card together, thus: MRS. JAMES SMITH. Afternoon tea cards are sent a week or ten days in advance of the date upon them. To send a card without calling signifies inability to call in person. Acceptances or regrets should be sent as soon as possible after receiving invitations. "Party Calls" should be made within one week after date of the party. Invitations in your city can be sent either by mail or messenger as preferred. The visiting cards of gentlemen are shorter and slightly narrower than those at present used by ladies. "Mr." should be prefixed to the name. Any lady wishing to inform her friends of the presence of a lady visiting her family should enclose her visitor's card with her own, in the same envelope. When cards of introduction are given, the name of the bearer should be written above that of the giver, prefixed by the word "Introducing," and the card placed in an envelope addressed to the person to whom the introduction is made. An invitation to dine should be answered on the day received. It is always courteous to acknowledge the receipt of an "At Home" card. CARD ETIQUETTE FOR CHURCH WEDDINGS Cards to a church or home wedding, followed by a reception, need no written answer if the recipient proposes to attend, unless bearing the letters R. S. V. P. When attendance at a church wedding is impossible, cards must be sent the day of the marriage directed to those from whom the invitation comes. If present at the church it is polite to send a card or cards to those who invite. CARD ETIQUETTE IN WASHINGTON Questions are asked concerning the requirements that the official element demands in Washington, and some knowledge of the etiquette of that city is necessary. The President has absolute precedence. He receives visits-returns none. He is addressed as Mr. President. Any invitation extended by the President is equivalent to a command. There was a question as to who should pay the first visit, the Cabinet officer or the Senator. Many yield this point to the Senate. The families of Senators are in Wash ington for a short time, while the residence of the Cabinet is fixed. The wives of the United States Senators will hereafter call upon the wives of Foreign AMBASSADORS, while the wives of Foreign MINISTERS will make the first call upon the wives of Senators. In all society, official or otherwise, the clergy take a signal position, and should always be accorded the place of honor, when present. CARDS FOR BALLS Note sheets are used for private balls, and the engraved invitation is in the same form as for any evening party. Cards of ceremony must be left within a week. If a lady is "at home" on a certain day, cards must be left on that day and no other. Exceptional occasions of course require exceptional cards; for such there can be no fixed rules. WHEN TO DROP THE JR. When a father dies leaving a son of the same name the son should omit the Jr. from his visiting card To be correct his wife should do likewise, but as confusion sometimes arises because of the mother and wife having the same name the wife often prefers to keep the Jr. INFANTS' CARDS It is a pleasing custom to send a small card announcing the birth of a child. The full name is on the card, also the date of its birth in the lower left hand corner. It is enclosed with its parents' card, to which it is daintily ribboned. A visit of acknowledgment is usual. If not possible a card is sent, with "Congratulations" written upon the upper left hand corner. |
