When visiting in the home of a friend, and a box of candy is 'pen on the table, is a guest privileged to help himself without an invi- tation? A. No. To do so would be presumptuous. Q. Is it necessary for the bride’s father to receive guests with his wife in the reception line, at the wedding reception? A.
