Modern Etiquette
Q. How can a divorced woman
who is using her maiden name
include “Miss" in front of her
name when sending out her daugh-
ter's wedding announcements?
A. A divorced woman with a
daughter should not be using
“Miss” in front of her name, as
it leads to social complications
such as this one. However, in this
case, she can put “Mrs.” in front
of her maiden name, and give her
daughter’s full name on the an-
nouncement.
Q. Is it all right to name an
adopted boy “Junior?”
A. This is perfectly all right.

When summer comes, spring Is far behind—in us lee. People shop ■
billion dollars more in summer than in spring!
“Summer slump” has been replaced by “summer jump” according
to the U. S. Department of Commerce. It reports that retail sales were $46.8
billion last spring, then soared to $46.8 billion in the summer!
People are just as active reading their newspapers in the summer,
too. Daily newspaper circulation remains almost constant all year ’round.
Put these facts together and they spell SALES. Make sure you get
your alia re of summer sales—use the newspaper to reach people in the summer.
Remember—there’s no summer slump in sales or newspaper readership. And
thert’t no tummer replacement for the newtpaper! All btuinoti it local.:: mud
