Visitors
It is considered the height
of ill manners to be in any
way disrespectful to a call-
er in one's private home.
It is a mark of gentility for
one to observe the same
courtesy in dealing with a
visitor in one's place of
business. For one to go
away angry or hurt in feel-
ings is a serious reflection
on the store but even
more so on the individual
who is responsible.
