From page 46

DEAR MISS MANNERS — We
send gifts through the mai! for
Christmas, birthdays, christenings,
graduations and other special oc-
casions, to menkers of our fami-
lies who lve in other provinces.
Should we just assume that they’ve
received the gifts even though
we've had no response?

I often wonder if the gifts have
gotten Post in the mail. My lus-
band says it would put the reci-
pient in an awkward position were
we to ask in our next fetter if they
had received our gift. Is there any
polite way to handle this?

GENTLE READER — It is

surely your object, and one that
Miss Manners endorses, to put
these rude and ungrateful people in
an awkward position so they will
stop being rude and ungrateful.
You don’t really think all those
packages were lost in the mail, do
you?

Asking ‘“‘Why didn’t you ac-
knowledge ray present?’ would be
itself rude. Politely inquiring
whether your packages went astray
is not only acceptable, but that may
actually prove to be the case. Miss
Manners would prefer to think so,
rather than to suppose that you are
wasting your thoughtfulness on the
thoughtless.
