The nlace cards had tbe name traced
first in muscilage and then sprinkled
with diamond dust. Each card bore a
CHEEKY Christmas quotation. While
seated at the table the guests were re-
ouested to tell of their "merriest
Christmas. The ice cream was served
in little flower crooks covered with red
and green ruffles of crepe paper. Grated
chocolate was sprinkled over the ice
cream and a tinv bit of pine planted
in the center gave the appearance of a
miniature nine tree.
The star idea is an easy one to EN-
phasize and is especially appropriate
| for Christmas. Cut large stars ont of
gilt paper and drape around the edge of

with white shades decorated with stars

cream in SNOWFALL shape. springled with
cocoanut.
A little pepper tree will serve for
small Christmas tree for the center of
another table. Decorate the tree with
little gifts for each guest, plenty of tin
sci, little tapers and colored stars. The
stationery clips are very handy for at
taching the articles to the tree. Hang
little tarletan stockings lined with oil
paper to the twigs and fill with bon
bons. At the end of the repast distrib-
ute the stockings to the guests.
From the chandelier suspend a large
wire hoop wound with holly or smilax,
also red ribbon. From the hook sus.
pend red ribbons to which attach little
souvenirs. These ribbons should lead
to each cover. At the very end of the
streamers tie jingling bell The can
dies are hooded with scarlet paper bells
edged with cotton sprinkled with mica
dust. The ice cream is served in scarlet
paper bell cases. Outline the table cover
with frosted cotton and here and there
place a bell cut out of decorative crepe
paper
For place cards use white cards with
little bells strung on narrow ribbon
across the top. Icicles can be hung
from the chandelier. These are made
by cutting strips of silver paper and
rolling the strips firmly Run a black
thread through a few icicles and use
as many as you can.
The waitress may wear an apron and
cap made of large paper poinsettia pet
ais and tied with green ribbons Snow
ball cakes are made by scooping out
rounded spoonfuls of angel food cake.
Dip these in warm boiled icing and
then roll in cocoanut grated fine. In
stead of ice cream, plum pudding may
be served. Bake the pudding a cylin-
drical mould to represent Yule log
and adorn with holly sprays. This has
a very effective appearance when it ap-
pears on the table in Christmas blaze.
Cunning little fun makers can be
made of prunes, raisins, figs, etc. Use
marshmallows for the faces and mark
the features with chocolate. For a
turtle use a big raisin with head, tail and
feet of cloves; mark the eyes with white
icing. A marshmallow man may be
made with three marshmaliows fastened
together with toothpick. The top
marshmallow is shaped like head and
has currants for the eyes and a bit Of
red cherry for the mouth. This man
wears a prune hat. A lemon may be
used for a miniature pig. Slash the
mouth, use couple of cloves for feet,
and for ears use the skin of an almond.
Twist another bit of almond skin for
the tail and use toothpicks for the legs.
The following menu may be helpful
to you in planning your Christmas din

SSSSSSSS nuity and artistic taste for
tseSESaI decorating the home and
table. The glowing colors,
which Mother Nature displays in the
greenery and poinsettias symbolic for
shis time of the year, are the best colors
TO use for the Yuletide decorations
Plan your decorative scheme for the
table so it will stand apart from those
of other days, that the event will be
long remembered by those fortunate
enough to be counted among the guests.
Use Christmas foliage bourtifully in
adjoining the rooms. Hang garlands of
evergreen between the doorways, over
the windows, and in every conceivable
place. At different intervals leave the
ends of the garlands hang and attach
bells, gilded cones, or ribbon bows to
the end. Wreaths interspersed with
ponsettias are delight to the eye.
You can make crepe paper flowers,
which viii vie in beauty with nature $
bloom. Cut five large size petals and
three smaller ones to each flower, wire
each of these petals through the center
and arrange in the shape of a flower.
Use wire wound with green tissue paper
for the stems. Insert green leaves cut
similar to the flower leaves, but cut
wider, placed at intervals in the stem.
Shade the lights with poinsettia
shades and have clusters wherever they
will show to the best advantage, for the
brilliant hues gives gala touch to the
room. Gilt paper stars strung on fine
thread are quickly made. Paste two
sheets of gilt paper together, the gilt
outside. When the paper is thoroughly
dry, lay on a cardboard star pattern
and draw the outline. After the sheet
is filed with outlines, the stars can all
be cut out at the same time Sew a
loop of white thread to one of the
points Of the star and string number
together
Chains Of paper sprinkled with dia
mond dust are also effective for festoon-
ing the rooms. Squares, diamonds, tri-
angles, hearts and circles are cut out
OF red or green paper and strung about
two inches apart on coarse white thread
Gilded peanuts, chains of popcorn OF
cranberries, are also useful for deeora
tive purposes. The natural green foil
age, touched with gold paint and gen
erously trimmed with red immortelles
or gilded cones, help to transform the
rooms into bowers of beauty.
A table scheme evolved by a clevc
hostess is worthy of description. The
table cover and napkins used were Of
paper decorated with Christmas scene
The principal feature was a center
piece, which was mound OF white
cotton sparkling with diamond dust
Concealed in the SNOW drift were it'll,
souvenirs tied to green ribbons which
radiatod to each place; these wer'

were little toy pine trees. Good o.,
