Excerpt from Dainty Desserts for Dainty People: Knox Gelatine
Place the napkin, folded, at the left of the forks; or, when soup is served, if desired, the napkin may be folded and placed on the plate with a roll or small piece of bread partly folded within it. Set the glass for water above the knife. If wine glasses are to be used, set the glass for water above the plate and near the center of the cover, and set the wine glasses to the right in a half circle, the one to be first used the farthest to the right and nearest the hand.
The success of a formal dinner depends greatly upon the selection of the guests and the order in which they are seated at the table.
The host and hostess should sit directly Opposite each other. The ladies and gentlemen should sit in alternate seats between the host and hostess. The alternate arrangement may be followed with six or ten persons, but not when eight or twelve are present.
When dinner is announced the host should enter the dining room with the guest of honor. Then the men guests should escort the ladies into the room. The hostess with the man guest of honor should be the last to enter. The guests should stand back of their chairs until the hostess is seated, and each man should adjust the chair for the lady he is escorting and see that she is comfortably seated before he takes his place at her side.
