What I Tell My Daughters

By a Gables Mother. DEAR JOAN: I was appalled the other day when I entered the living room with a friend of mine and you merely looked up and said "Hi", ur dog is not exactly noted for his manners, but at least he jumped up and wagged his tail in greeting. True, new days bring new ways, but, old-fashioned as it may seem to you, respect for your elders will always be a sign of refinement. Did you actually feel that it wasn't necessary to stand when we entered? I hope not. It was a simple mishap, nevertheless, it showed that you are not aware of the little courtesies and attentions that are the foundation of wellbred femininity. If you forget everything else, remember this — young people always rise when their elders enter the room, and they remain standing until the older persons are seated. There is no better way of developing your social sense than by beginning at home. And don't complicate your life by having two sets of manners, one for home and the other for the world. Someone once said "There are two kinds of people who have no manners — those who never acquired them and those who don't want any." If you would have the magic power of charm, have good manners. LOVE, MOTHER
