ing your head, for generally there are from one to twenty women rushing in and out of the kitchen and everything is in confusion. All you can do IS to try and keep the kitchen and dining-room arrangements in your own hands and those of your head assistants. Coach these assistants to guide the amateur waitresses, giving each a particular duty, keeping order and system in sup plying dishes and food. This is vital, especially if the church is serving bus mess mems luncheon. The great com plaint heard at these IS that men have to wait too long to be served, that first corners are served bountifui1y with hot viands, and that the next relays get cold food and scraps" All this can be avoided if you have head enough to demand military precision. I know a girls eat their 1uncheons from half-past eleven to two o'clock each day. The kitchen space IS smaller than most of your kitchens and one woman is mana ger. Each girl as she enters goes to a table and takes a plate. Then she passes vegetables are served to her; then she goes i'll turn to the breads, salads and desserts. She passes by a cashier, who fssizes up" the amount of food on her plate and gives her ce11u1oid check. The girl places her plate on table and goes and gets her silver, paper napkin and water, tea, coffee, chocolate or milk. When she has finished she takes her dishes to a counter and pays the second cashier as she passes out. This is the simplest system imaginable and one you can install in the church kitchen for the helpers.
 I asked the woman manager of tea room in big department store who serves hundreds of business men and shoppers at noop-time and hundreds of

scheme, with the staircase occupy ing one end of the hall and the bathroom the other. A linen closet is provided, with it's first shelf high enough from the floor to give head room over the the stairs under meath the balance is filled up with roomy shelves of ample capacity. The bedrooms have roonay closets, and broom closet is provided in the second-story hall.
 This design does not call for an attic; the amount of money neces- sary to build a roof high enough for head-room, with the necessary dorner windows to light it and a staircase to reach 1t, is distributed elsewhere in the building. An attic is desirable when economy is not so carefully to be maintained ]; otherwise 1t is better to store the trunks and like things on racks in the basement.
 The exterior is covered with c1apboards, with the rough side out, mitered at the corners and stained. An olive-green stain, with ivory white trimmings and sash, and bronze-green blinds, will make a most attractive combination of color.

and confer with them about allowing you special rates. It is perfectly 1egiti- mate for you to have a commission if you help them introduce or advertise any special brand of groceries, OF if you secure them customers. Your patrons will ask you what brand of coffee, what favoring extracts, what flour, where you get good cream, eggs, butter and so on. Do not think the dealers will propose giving you a commission or low rates unless you ask 1t. Make a list of the clubs and societies which may be- come patrons and send them your an nouncenent.
 Arrange your kitchen for your work, just as a man would arrange his shop or office. Cut place for a window, if you need light. Be sure your range bakes on the bottom, that the chimney Is cleaned out and draws well. Why waste good materials because your stove is a poor makeshift? Buy new, large cooking utensils if your own are old and too small. Here you have another chance to get commission from deal CTS in cooking utensils and hardware. Have long tables that will hold stacks of dishes, and hampers with clean cloths in which to send out food. After you get start you can prepare things ill your own kitchen and take them by wagon to the destined place. I know a caterer who arrives on the scene about fifteen minutes before time to serve with her croquettes all ready save for heating through, her salad mixed and packed in ice, and her ice cream in freezers. She brings dishes, candelabra, silver and napery, and her walters. While the first course of croquetteS, salad and rolls Is being served, she makes the coffee and dishes the ice cream sand cuts the cake. This plan saves much time and worry for her and for her hostess.

china, sherbet and water glasses and punch-bowl. Later on you can add other china, silver and napery In the case of small 1uncheons and high teas and din- ners, hostesses generally prefer using their own pretty china, but they do not wish to get out the china for large teas and receptions. There are many kinds of dainty, inexpensive china which you can buy. Stick to pure white, or to green and gilt decorations. Flow CTS of different co1ors will be used at different affairs, and these two kinds of china will harmonize with any color scheme. Later on, after you gain exper- icnce and patronage, take up the decor ation of tables and furnishing name cards and favors. This will give you chance to help someone else earn money, for you can farm this branch out. You one woman perhaps can make splendid bread and rolls, another good mayon- naise, another fancy cakes. You can supply dishwashers, too.
 It is so easy to let the caterer, florist, dressnaller and mi1liner wait for their pay, that 1 would always ask for de- posit. 1 do not mean to scare you, or give you the impression that women can not be trusted in business matters. I only wish to tell you that by looking at catering in business1ike way and strikl- ing your bargains first, you will save time and worry. No man caterer would serve a wedding breakfast or banquet without knowing exactly how many to prepare for, the price per plate; nor would he hesitate at writing down the menu and the terms and showing the memorandum to his patroness, to be sure things were understood perfectly on each side.
 Most women in smaller cities start in catering by cooking and serving church dinners. This is good practice in keep

 slight projection on the
 rear, to give room for the pantry and kitchen extension. A building with rectangular outline
 that is, with one side longer than the other, Is always more arc1i- tecturally attractive than building absolutely square, with both sides equal. 1t also, as a rule, provides for a better arrangement of rooms, due to the fact that in a rectangu- lar building the staircase can be in the center, which allows rooms to be placed on both sides of the hall. The house illustrated has been de- signed to give the utmost of archi- fectural beauty and comfortable ar engagement for the money spent. Every feature connected with the design was carefully weighed be- fore 1t was incorporated in the plan.

The food is enclosed with panel doors, while the china doors are glazed. With such an arrange nent the flour is usually kept in bags in the bottom locker of the food cupboard, and the bread is mixed on an ordinary table in the kitchen.
