A paper bag cooked luncheon, with
bridge to follow. or an afternoon cob
lation prepared In the paper bags and
served after the game, will provide q
new note in social hospitality.
With large party It IL not wise
to undertake individual bag cooking.
Better have bags for each tablsful.
limiting the tables to playing sise.
The two menus here given are ad-
Unstable either to luncheon. afternoon
oollations or late suppers. Claret
punch. Sautsrne cup. or tea-lemonade
should be served with each, winding
up with black coffee or chocolate
made with a little brandy and very
lightly sweetened. Sailed nuts. olives
and radishes are also served. either
together or separate. at the discretion
of the hostess.
