3) Do not loiter or visit in toilet rooms.

DUTY TO YOUR CHAPERON

_Though her mien carries much more invitation than command, to
behold her is an immediate check to loose behaviour; to love her
was a liberal education._

--Steele.

At school receptions, sleigh-rides, class meetings at private homes, and
so on, there is always a chaperon, who is giving her time for your
enjoyment. Her kindness should be repaid by your courtesy.

1) As soon as possible after greeting your hostess, greet your chaperon.

2) Also, just before leaving, speak to her again cordially and
gratefully.

3) See that your chaperon is not often left alone. If the function is a
dance, invite her to dance; or sit out a dance with her, sometimes. Make
her enjoy being your chaperon.

4) Never tease to stay when the time comes to go.

5) Don't hinder your chaperon by loitering over your wraps; be ready
when she is, and leave the building with her.

DUTY TO YOUR HOSTESS

_But evil is wrought by want of thought,
As well as want of heart._

--Hood.

1) Before talking with others at a party greet your hostess; then the
older people present; finally, the young people.

2) As a guest you are not expected to say good-by to everybody; but
never leave without saying good-by to your hostess and expressing
appreciation of her efforts to give you pleasure.

3) cooperate with your hostess in trying to make everyone present happy.
If you fail to pay this courtesy to your hostess, you stamp yourself as
an undesirable guest.

4) If the function is a dance, boys, avoid too many consecutive dances
with the same girl. Confining your attentions noticeably to the same
girl makes her conspicuous and mars the general pleasure.

5) Girls, decline consecutive dances with the same boy. Do it
graciously, explaining that you would like to accept, but must not be
selfish. If he is the right sort, he will understand at once, or come to
his senses later. If he is offended, don't worry about it; it is not
worth while.

6) Pay some kindly attention to the girls who do not dance all of the
time. They will feel grateful, your hostess will feel grateful, you will
feel better satisfied than if you neglect them.

7) Never refrain from dancing if any girl present is without a partner
for that number. To refrain is selfish in you, and discourteous to both
the girl and your hostess.

8) Girls, don't quit one of your friends
