TINE hostess who is fortunate
l. enough to live in the country, or
in a small town, has it in her power to
give great pleasure to city dwellers
among her friends, when she entertains
.them-and especially in the sum
'mer time. If her home is pro-
vided with a roomy porch she
will End this a great asset; even
so simple a matter as breakfast
served on the veranda is a delight to
the shut-in jewellers of city apartment
houses. Strolls on the country roads
and excursions into the woods fill them
with Joy, so that city dwellers may be
depended upon for getting much pleas
ure from the simple fact that they are
in the open country.
The most obvious of means for enter
tanning are the natural beauties Of
scenery-the sights" which every To-
cality boasts. In hilly countries there
are the views from high points that are
always inspiring, in a lake country ex-
cursions to the lakes and fishing or
bathing and in a fiat country points
where one may watch the sun set to
best advantage. All these make op-
p~ortunity for picnic parties. Motor cars
or motor buses carry the guests and
refreshments and such informal enter
tanning gives more real pleasure than
n night at the opera.
In planning n Of these picnics for
city guests one must keep a careful
eve on the details for their comfort.
1t is a good idea to provide each n
of them with a small pillow in case
the picnic lunch Is served on the grass,
or the i~mprovised seats and tables are
bare boards. Paper napkins and paper
dishes reduce the cares of the hostess
to the minimum. including plates large
enough to hold all that she intends to
serve. A menu including substantial
sandwiches, a salad. small cakes and

THE SUMMER HOSTESS


, coffee or iced drinks will satisfy the
keen appetites that a walk or ride in
the open air is likely 20 produce. Some
hostesses arrang the portions all
ready to serve by using paper ice
cream cases to contain the salad so
that this does not have to be dishedl
out into plates which are passed with
sandwiches on them. Each hostess will
manage the serving of coffee in the
manner she finds most convenient. lie
she uses vacuum bottles it is all taken
care of at home. Most picnic crowds
enjoy making 1t and small tin cups are
the most practical things to take along
unless one has collapsible cups oh
metal. The sunset picnic usually ex,
tends itself into the twilight and some
times into the dark. A bonfire is as
much a pleasure to the grown-up city
dweller as 1t is to the small boy and
ought to finish off the experience in
the happiest way.
If the hostess can manage to light
her verandai and evenings are not too
cool, her guests will enjoy cards there
very much. Many small colored Ian
terms lose their charm and their
cleaning is a song of welcome. A big
porch is n dispensation of providence
to the hostess who Is entertaining peo-
pie who love to dance. Given a porch
and a victrola they will take care Of
the evenings for themselves. In lati-
tudes where 1t is cool an open wood
fire warns the heart and soul of the
average city dweller who must content
himself to live without any such In
spiration to conversation and story
telling.
