From the Cincinnati Enquirer : a story about Kenton County (KY) Public Library’s ‘courtly manners program’, held last Monday evening, giving 34 teens and pre-teens practice in saying “please” and “may I be excused?” during a free five-course dinner at the Madison Banquet Center.
Sara Howery, youth librarian and middle school coordinator for the Kenton County Public Library, said the world would be a more pleasant place if everyone had a refresher course in etiquette now and then.
Of course, some participants were just hoping that they behaved well enough to get dessert.
