[AN
HOUR
IN
THE
MORNING
IS
WORTH
TWO
AT
NIGHT.]
1951.
Cards.
A
newly
married
couple
send
out
cards
immediately
after
the
ceremony
to
their
friends
and
acquaintance,
who,
on
their
part,
return
either
notes
or
cards
of
congratulation
on
the
event.
As
soon
as
the
lady
is
settled
in
her
new
home,
she
may
expect
the
calls
of
her
acquaintance;
for
which
it
is
not
absolutely
necessary
to
remain
at
home,
although
politeness
requires
that
they
should
be
returned
as
soon
as
possible.
But,
having
performed
this,
any
further
intercourse
may
be
avoided
(where
it
is
deemed
necessary)
by
a
polite
refusal
of
invitations.
Where
cards
are
to
be
left,
the
number
must
be
determined
according
to
the
various
members
of
which
the
family
called
upon
is
composed.
For
instance,
where
there
are
the
mother,
aunt,
and
daughters
(the
latter
having
been
introduced
to
society),
three
cards
should
be
left.
Recently,
the
custom
of
sending
cards
has
been
in
a
great
measure
discontinued,
and
instead
of
this,
the
words
"No
cards"
are
appended
to
the
ordinary
newspaper
advertisement,
and
the
announcement
of
the
marriage,
with
this
addition,
is
considered
all
sufficient.
1952.
Reception.
When
the
married
pair
have
returned,
and
the
day
of
reception
arrives,
wedding
cake
and
wine
are
handed
round,
of
which
every
one
partakes,
and
each
expresses
some
kindly
wish
for
the
newly
married
couple.
The
bride
ought
not
to
receive
visitors
without
a
mother,
or
sister,
or
some
friend
being
present,
not
even
if
her
husband
be
at
home.
Gentlemen
who
are
in
professions,
or
have
Government
appointments,
cannot
always
await
the
arrival
of
visitors;
when
such
is
the
case,
some
old
friend
of
the
family
should
represent
him,
and
proffer
an
apology
for
his
absence.
