Etiquette, by Emily Post, Part 8 - Servants

Let's relax with more from this classic of classy behavior, and learn about the roles of servants in a good household. What they do, what they wear, and how to pronounce val-et, which your reader corrects upon reading this. Whoops! Also, once again, we learn that treating workers with respect is the highest mark of class. Facts.   Help us stay ad-free and 100% listener-supported!
