THE SUNDAY SUPPER
The Company EUent of the
ITeek IN Nam Homes.

In some homes the Sunday night supper
is the company event of the week, and as
an informal affair Of this kind is far easier
for the maid. the hostess and generally
the guests enjoy It more than an attempt
at an elaborate dinner, which cannot fail
10 show work and worry when the house
keeper has only one maid.
The table can be lust as attractive and
the menu just as tempting as for a dinner.
As the Sunday midday meal is usually late,
7.35 or o'clock is a popular hour for sup
per The maid usually arranges the table
before she goes out. though frequently the
hostess sees to II herself pretty button
hcled and monogrammed luncheon cloth,
flet lace runner with square plate doiies,
or a round centrepiece Of Madeira lace with
the matching plate and tumbler doiies, are
the thing for the Sunday tea. For In
formal meals the silver and glass coasters
are used. and they certainly protect the
polished table. 1t is not bad Idea to dis
pense with flowers and use as centre
piece a silver bowl of nuts or small
Sheffield tray with a pretty arrangement OF
assorted fruits. which many times IL the
only dessert served.
There are numerous good menus to
choose from for a Sunday supper, though
most hostesses have a special menu which
the maid has learned to prepare salts
factorlly. Every Sunday night during the
winter at one hour cold roast duck, apple
sauce. grapefruit and mayonnaise salad,
cheese nut bread sandwiches and choco-
late constitute the supper. Another hostess
makes a specially Of her potato salad
which she never serves except for Sunday
suppers With the cubes of potato and
generous quantity of oil dressing she uses
a can of French pease. chopped nut meats.
boiled eggs and a garnish OF pimentoes and
lettuce With this she serves cold tongue
with a tomato sauce. or a whole boiled
ham with a hot Indian relish buttered
slices Of brown and white bread and coffee
OF ale.
Cold sliced chicken. with a border Of hard
boiled eggs dipped in chopped pickle
around the platter, scallOped potatoes,
tomato salad jelly. cottage cheese and hot
buttered rolls make another good com
bination. In some homes Welsh rabbit,
lobster Newburg or creamed chicken made
in the chahng dish. assorted sandwiches,
olives and coffee constitute the evening
meal II one cares to serve a dessert other
than fruit and nuts, individual pumpkin or
apple pies with a thin disk Of cream
cheese laid on top would surely please
As smoking around the table usually
finishes the Sunday evening supper, the
thoughtful hostess should see 10 it that
ash trays and matches are-handy.
