• fl Modern Etiquette | BY ROBIRTA LIB I fl Q. Do you think it's all rjght for girls to appear on the street or in the busses with their hair done up in curlers, even though they have scarves tied around their heads? A. This might depend upon how these scarves are tied. If they are tied into attractive turbans, with just a little hair showing, it’s probably all right. But if too many of the curlers are showing, it’s not so good. x Q. What would be an appropriate gift for me to give to a friend of mine who is opening his own office as a doctor? A. Something for his waiting room would be very nice—a lamp, an ashtray, a subscription to a magazine, etc., Q. Does the receiving of a wedding announcement require a gift? A.
