    As doth the blushing discontented sun
    From out the fiery portal of the east.

    No contracts, entails, hereditaments,
    Anything at all that might tie or hem.
    —William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)

    This is no argument against teaching manners to the young. On the contrary, it is a fine old tradition that ought to be resurrected from its current mothballs and put to work...In fact, children are much more comfortable when they know the guide rules for handling the social amenities. It’s no more fun for a child to be introduced to a strange adult and have no idea what to say or do than it is for a grownup to go to a formal dinner and have no idea what fork to use.
    Leontine Young (20th century)
