ing as they appear, will become simplified if you re- member three rules:
1. Introduce the young person to the older person, addressing the older person first. "Mrs Smith, this is Betty Jones,"
2. Introduce the boy to the girl, speaking to the girl first. "Betty Jones, John Smith."
3. When
you are the person who is being introduced, say merely: "How do you do."
If, on occasion, you must in- troduce yourself, say: "I'm Betty Jones." That is friendly, brief and is the best of taste. At school, clubs, parties and church, it is considered better form to speak up than to remain lonely and unnoticed.
Parting expressions like "I am diad to have met you" or "I was pleased to make your acquaintance I'm sure" are dated phrases that few use. A nod or a cordial "I hope we'll meet again looks and sounds better.
