The Good Life

Sir: With reference to Pamela Vandyke Price's gratuitous and selfimportant advice on May 27 to her hosts, I should not, were I to be acquainted with this person and the ill-mannered circle to whom her letter was addressed, be tempted to invite her anywhere, for any length of time or for any purpose whatever. The brashness and stridency of this woman's writing become increasingly shrill and out of key with the title of her column: modulate her. John 'Colvin St James' Club, 106 Piccadilly, London WI
