The arrangements of one or two of
these notable feasts has been left to
the discretion of Oscar, famous over the
country as the head waiter of New
York Waldorf-AstOria: Oscar who, on
his Tips. runs his own steam yacht
and owns a fine summer place. Each
spread will cost many thousands of
dollars, and each has required many
weeks, if not months. of hard work.
Oscar has employed a corps of design
ers to arrange the decorations, and his
agents are searching the hothouses of
this and other countries to obtain GER
tain out-Of-seasOn fruit which he de-
sires TO have present. Oscar has adj
vanced the calling of the caterer to
such pass that one hesitates between
calling in an art or q. science, but his
system IS far-reaching enough to en-
able him TO bring together many wide
~ separated interests in the matter of
food production. So. knowing that
sooner or later a bona fide order Of the
kind viii be given him. he was asked
the other day 10 write out the menu
for the most expensive dinner he could
possibly get up.

The holiday dinner has become at
length one of the multifarious terTOrs
Of The rich. 1t is not the question of
contribution to the holiday cheer of the
poor, but the providing of a dinner
which viii fully accord with the world 5
estimate of ones station in society. In
short how to get up the very most eX-
pensive dinner has become a serious
question. The old, much planned, much
devised. cheapest dinner is, after all,
only a question of quantity and the
adherence TO a FEW threadbare essen
tials in the matter of custom, but the
most expensive dinner requires a gen
eraIship that mere money may not al
ways command. Each year adds to the
difficulties of the situation since 1t be
comes a part of the constantly rising
succession of tide marks. This, in fact,
Is the real questiOn-hoW to SUrpaSs all
previous efforts. And this year viii be
notable. because several well known
society men and women are already
striving to settle the question once and
for all by ordering the most expensive
holiday dinner that can possibly be got
