The hostess who has mastered the
art Of making good sandwiches has
gone FAR toward mastering the art OF
entertaining, for any social gathering
where refreshments are served lacks
distinction unless II offers at least
one kind OF sandwich q little better

Q similar entertainment
Sandwiches should be good TO look
n and good to taste. Both requisites
demand that all materials used In
making them should be fresh, care
fully prepared and OF the best quality.
Cress. lettuce and any other sort OF
green for sandwich filling should be
carefully cleaned and crisped on Ice
Tor several hours before using. Meat
should be freshly cooked and freed
from all fat, gristle and grease. Bread
should be fresh, but firm. and thinly
cut Gutter should be Of Just the
ere my consistency TO make 1t spread
easily, not 30 hard as to be lumpy nor
90 soft as to be oily.
Cutters In various fancy shapes
should be part Of every sandwich
makers outfit Hearts and triangles,
circles and diamonds are among the
most effective shapes When fancy
cutters are not used the sandwich
should be pressed firmly together. the
erusts nicely trimmed, and the square
cut either In long, thin strips OF
cagonalfy across TO make two triangle
shaped sandwiches.
Cream buffers Of various sorts heir
give sandwiches the distinctive tastes
which whet the appetite and make
every one wonder what the sandwich

either finely chopped olives, water
eress or parsley. finely grated horse

blend with them In flavor and the re
suit is always satisfactory.
