from long and peaceful slumber, Ior
as the days grow bit cooler and Wo-
men begin to realize that to be pa
triotic does not necessarily mean to
give up all entertaining, they are re-
viving social affairs, though simply.
MiIady will not feel that she is be-
ing wicked, wasteful creature, The
tea Of today is a "refreshmentiess
one and the cooling glass of punch,
iced tea, or iced coffee is as much as
any of US really cares for. A caro-
party could be given with equal ease,
Serve punch during the afternoon and
during the time formerly given over
to elaborate refreshments make a so
cial half hour and visit at different
tables, thus really doing little more
than nodding to those at the party.
for prizes give some simple or
moderately expensive thing for we
are not asked to especially HooVerize
on gifts, so make your prizes as pretty
as you wish or pocketbook dictates.
Or invite friends in for a knitting
afternoon. Always, however. be sure
to stipulate that it is refreshment-
less party. One feels sure that no
guest will remain home on that ac-
count and if a guest does, you are
infinitely better off without such a
friend. The food commission is urg-
ing strongly conservation Of the sup
plies necessary for our men and our
Allies. 1t urges doing away with the
extra meal, that is, the serving Of food
for refreshments either between
luncheon and dinner or between that
meal and bedtime, so, milady, it's up to
you! If you fail In doing your part

commission asks and while the War
Council is anxious to give our boys
a delicious after-luncheon or after
dinner spread, yet, it feels that the
food commission has gone so deeply
into this subject that its word should
be law. .
The question of the soldiers enter
tainment is one much discussed today
and it is huge question, for the sol.
der, entertained, feels that he wants
to return the kindness extended and
his first thought will be either dance
or the movies. Of course few of the
soldier lads are sufficiently we'll
known to the girls for them to go out
with them. 1t is reasonable to sup
pose and the soldier lads will all I'M
derstand that girl must know some
thing Of the man she is going out
with, no matter how we'll chaperoned
or how large the group going. Let
the soldier come to the homes Of the
different women who invite him and
there he will receive that which all
of the soldiers say they have longed
for, a touch of home life and home
Surroundings. One society woman
plans to ask a dozen soldier lads and
an equal number Of girls out to movies
and she will see the girls home. (I
