ASK MRS. MANNERS— - ‘Worried ee Her Fiance Slurps Soup

DEAR MES. MANNERS:

My fiance smacks loudly when he eats, and slurps his coffee and his-soup. . He was raised in a crude mannered family. 1 wonder if I should try to correct him and, if so, how? I

don't want him. We

are bad, he is immaculaté about

I try to use the best manners I know, and have corrected my son (by a former marriage) in

front of my fiance. I've men

tioned ‘my son's smacking and loud eating noises, but my fiance

doesn’t take the hint. L., EAST SIDE, You might as well criticize his manners now for you would show your bad manners, and unfairness, by heckling him if you married him. Honestly, you don’t want a man you're ashamed of. You are ashamed of him, though he appeals to you and dresses well. His lack of early training and pride will show In more ways than table manners. If you care and he doesn’t, there will be trouble.

I suppose you could shout |

through his slurping and hope

he would catch on that he was

noisy. You could - pretend ignorance in etiguet in training your son and read paragraphs - directed at your fiance while hunting through books on manners. That probably would con vince both your son and your fiance that you didn't know much. . Your fiance would go blissfully on, smacking his chops—and cooling your love.
