rooms Of all sizes. The small ball,

Then came the question Of tables.
Would the committeeman want to
seat his diners at many small tables
or at one large table? The committee
man had never thought Of this and
asked the hotel mans advice.

said he, but It is a matter OF choice,

Then began the job OF placing the
diners at the banquet table. II every

clean entertainment for the diners.
In addition there was the struggle
with the menu and the selection OF
the wines. Then came the souvenirs
which are so much part of every big
dinner.
The day before the banquet ten
members who had applied for seats
sgnified their intention of bringing
guests. This necessitated another
change in the seating diagram. The
diagram was the last thing printed
and the ink on 1t was hardly dry
when the dinner began.
Such are a few of the difficulties
that beset the man who tries to ar
range a banquet.
Dinners at clubs are the easiest to
arrange. There the club steward
finds out what is wanted and sees
that it is supplied. Hotels will ar
range nearly everything connected
with a banquet but supplying the din
ers, When the complete arrangement
is left to the hotel the cost Of the
banquet increases a great deal. and
keeping the cost at a minimum is the
aim Of all dinner committees.
