DINNER DANCE.

  Invitations.  The hostess issues two sets of
       invitations—­one for those invited to both the
       dinner and the dance, and one for those invited
       to the dance only.

For the former she could use her usual engraved dinner cards with the words:  Dancing at eleven, and for the latter her usual engraved At Home cards with the words:  Dancing at eleven.

A less formal way for the latter invitation is to use the Mr. and Mrs. card or Mrs. and Miss card, and to write on it in the lower left hand corner:  Dancing at ten, February the tenth.

Doctor—­how addressed. A doctor or physician
       should be addressed as Dr. both by correspondence
       and in conversation.

This title of Dr. must not be confounded with the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity, conferred upon clergymen by educational institutions, and the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, conferred upon college professors after certain conditions of study have been complied with.
