One of the hostesses of the week
always provides for her afternoon af-
fairs an ample collation. for the re-
freshment of her guests. When she
planned her party a few days ago
some one objected that she was offer
ing a regular buffet luncheon. Her
answer was one that assisting women
everywhere will delight to hear She
said: Il feel that when I ask a group
OF my friends to come and help me
entertain my guests, 1 am asking them
to serve me at a task that is not al
together easy. My assisting people
stand nearly all the afternoon and are
the last ones to be served, getting
their refreShment after it is too late
to eat dinner at home with their fam
Ines. In that case. they have earned
something more than cambria tea and
vanilla waters, and l like to offer
something that is actually food"
