CONCERTS--Here,
as
at
the
opera,
you
may
wear
a
bonnet
or
not,
as
you
will.
Go
early
to
the
hall,
unless
you
have
secured
a
seat,
and
then,
be
in
time
for
the
first
song.
If
you
are
unavoidably
late,
enter
quietly,
and
take
a
seat
near
the
door.
It
is
very
rude
to
push
forward
to
the
front
of
the
hall,
and
either
crowd
those
upon
the
benches,
or
force
some
gentleman
to
offer
you
his
place.
If
the
hall
is
so
crowded
that
even
the
back
seats
are
full,
and
a
gentleman
offers
you
his
place,
you
should
thank
him
before
accepting
it.
Again,
I
repeat,
do
not
converse,
or
disturb
those
around
you
by
exclamations
or
gesticulations.
LECTURES--Two
ladies
may
attend
a
lecture,
unaccompanied
by
a
gentleman,
without
attracting
attention.
The
dress,
bonnet,
and
cloak,
worn
in
the
street,
should
be
worn
in
a
lecture-room,
as
these
are,
by
no
means,
occasions
for
full
dress.
If
you
return
at
an
early
hour
from
any
place
of
amusement,
invite
your
escort
into
the
house
upon
your
arrival
there,
and
lay
aside
your
bonnet
and
shawl.
If
you
keep
them
on,
he
will
conclude
that
you
expect
him
to
shorten
his
visit.
If
it
is
late
when
you
reach
home,
he
will
probably
decline
your
invitation
to
enter.
If,
however,
he
accepts
it,
do
not
lay
aside
your
shawl,
and
he
will
soon
leave
you.
If
he
asks
permission
to
call
in
the
morning,
you
must,
unless
prevented
by
an
imperative
engagement,
remain
at
home
to
see
him.
