And speaking Of the reception, I want to
remark, without reflection on any one, that
the refreshments served that night we're
not according to my idea of what was
wanted. For instance, 1 saw young lady
wrestling with a sandwich which was so
thick she could not get her mouth around
it. OF course there is little room to serve
refreshments at the,Club, but my idea was
to have thin delicate sandwiches that
could be eaten with little muss or trouble,
and even if there wasn't much in one Of
them you could eat half dozen if you
cared to. Such sandwiches with coffee
would have been Just the thing. Ice cream
wasn't q necessary adjunct. But it is all
over now, and we'll live in hope for the
next time.
