A Q and A on etiquette for a dinner party with topics on handshakes at arrival and farewell, guest seating and wrap storage, how the hostess and guests enter the dining room, and whether the host carves the turkey or chicken. The guidance favors women entering first, upstairs wrap storage, and host seating assignments.
A column blends wartime dining guidance with social notes on households managing guests and seating. It cites hostess duties, guests of honor seating, and service flow for Thanksgiving style meals. The piece shifts to a reader letter about marital conflict and family letters from overseas, highlighting wartime mail and domestic strain.
