BALLS. A son should do all in his power to
make the ball a success by finding partners
for the women having none, seeing that the
men are introduced to the women, and taking
in to supper a woman without an escort.
CARDS. When a mother is calling, she can leave
cards of her son for the host and hostess if it
is impossible for him to do so himself.
A son entering society can have his cards
left by his mother for a host and hostess.
Invitations to entertainments will follow.
