diners at the beginning of the meal

of potatoes and 400 loaves of bread and
so pounds of butter were required for

required barrels of coffee with sugar and
cream. Clarence Buddington Kelland,
the author, who has summer home in

dishing the gravy upon the steaming po-
tatoes and meat, he being assisted BY a
bevy of pretty girls, among the number
being a daughter of the donor of the
