Miss Louise
Social Graces (circa 1909)



All of the social graces discussed here come from the following book:

Correct Social Usage
A Course of Instruction in Good Form, Style, and Deportment

Eighteen Distinguished Authors
Twelfth Revised Edition
Copyright 1909
The New York Society of Self-Culture
New York City, NY


Although correct social usage has changed quite a bit in the last 100 years, it is interesting to investigate what it was.  However, you will also discover on this website that some things in high society never change.  Also, it is a lot of fun.
