These Simple Rules Of Etiquette Put Joy For Everyone In Parties
There are some people who would rather run backward up 14th street hill than go through a receiving line. They maintain that the only things that can ever come of such acts of etiquette are a mangled right hand and a slaughtered name.
If you fall into this category—beware! This is the time of the
when you are most likely to receive invitations to social functions where a receiving line is the "proper thing."
Here are four simple pointers which can be applied to lines at teas, receptions, open houses and parties. If you follow them, you cannot lose!
1. Speak your name clearly. If there is commotion in the room, don't be embarrassed to speak louder.
3. Be prepared at all times to shake hands. It is when you are off guard and relaxed that those small, white-haired women can crush the bones in your hand with only one squeeze.
2. Repeat aloud the name of each person as you are introduced. This creates the impression that you are genuinely interested in meeting them. Also, who knows, some day one of them may be your mother-in-law.
4. Smile. There is no particular reason for this, other than it is a scientific fact that it takes less muscle energy to smile than to frown.
