hospitality whether in time of
war or in time of peace is al
" ways an art; both fine art and
useful one as well. But the
artistic possibilities of giving the glad
hand and the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
smile are even greater and more appre-
cable when the whole social system is
rather strained. And that's exactly what
happens when a nation is at war. How
ever, real hopitality is never affected by
circumstances for its expression.
But the trouble is we are getting far
Their and farther away from right idea
of what constitutes true hospitality. Did
you ever call on some one who was so
punctilious concerning your comfort
that her very interest finally got on
your nerves." She fused and fumed
so much about trif1es that she totally
forgot to be ordinarily pleasant. And
the very worst part of it all was the
realization that your presence meant
extra preparation all around.
What on earth is to become of such
hospitality under the rigid economy en-
forced by war? 1t seems very likely
that this sort of hospitality is to 60 off
the map entirely. And that's blessing,
really. The times demand that we do
away with most of our unnecessary fol-
bles, and get at the crux of things. Get
ting at the crux of things is incidental
with coming nearer to big facts and big
truths. One of the big truths that many
a hostess has yet to learn is this: To
must project ones personality and not
ones possessions. Now wouldn't you
rather have cup of tea and bite of
cake with Helen than to have the most
elaborate dinner with Marjory? Why?
Well, for one thing, you always come
away from Helen feeling that the
worlds a very restful place after all
whereas when you take your leave of
Mallory like as not you will feel tre-
mendous relief from the strain of being
over-entertained.
What does lavish entertaining amount
to after all if the one who proffers it
leaves her own self out altogether?
Does it mean very much to you that
there is plain ice cream for dinner in
stead of a new French connection, when
your hostess explains with an enhancing
smile that the latter turned out all
wrong? It does mean great deal,
though, if the spoiled delectable sue
ceeds in spelling her temper. too.
Granted, it is temptation to look
first of all to the material comfort of
our guest, and then not at all to our
way of extending il. But now that we
are admonished on every side to -c1t
down." to do without" to use less Of
ct cetera, why not take the splendid OPP
portunity to project our personalities
