GARNISHES
For
COLD DINNERS

Whether it be iced tea, coffee or
chocolate, lemonade or some other
blended fruit drink that you are
serving you will find that it adds
much to the appeal of the bever-
age to provide a few extra trim
mings" by way of punishment.
For iced tea arrange on a glass
plate alternate sections of sliced
lemon and sliced orange with lit
tie center bouquet of fresh mint.
For iced chocolate or coffee, let
there be a glass center bowl filled
with whipped cream, a pretty sitter
containing powdered cinnamon and
small dish containing minted
and maraschino cherries the
assortment arranged on an oblony
glass tray.
For other fruited drinks the
glass dish may contain any assort-
ment of fresh fruits arranged in
hors de'oeuvre fashion.

For
Midsummer
Weddings
Garden Tables Are
Most Effective

For the summer wedding no set
ting is SO lovely as that which is
provided by Nature herself. Happy,
then. the bride who may have the
tables for an afternoon reception
arranged in the garden.
At strategic points, where the
view is best, the caterer will erect
great canopies to provide shade
and protection for the bridal party
and guests who gather at smaller
tables or receive buffet service
from long table not far away.

well chosen for the event. In keep
ing with the bridal theme, white
and gold china and crystal goblets
seem most appropriate, although
it is not necessary to follow the
suggestion.
Flowers for the bridal table are
usually pure white or white with a
delicate shading of pink or yell
low, while the color scheme for
house decorations, guests tables
and about the grounds may be in
conformity with the bridesmaids'
gowns. An arrangement of fiow-
ers IS much newer than the fiat
centerpiece, and is invariably
used now.
Except for the beautiful white
wedding cake, which is also part
of the brides table decoration, the
remained of the service is the same
Ms for a formal luncheon, and the
menu may be as simple or as elab-
crate as one likes. For an unpre-
tentious garden wedding a simple
salad, sandwiches. ices and punch
would prove sufficient refreshment.
In most cases the bridal party is
seated at its own table and guests
are served from the buffet, al

them, small guest tables provide
greater comfort.

Chat With a Popular
Hostess
BY Ruth Come.

No sooner does one cross the
borderline and enter Belgium than
there arrives the impression that
here social and home life are quite
different from those of most other
countries. Even though small,
Belgium has it's bounds and its
customs very definitely set.
Society is divided into definite
classes. from the court and fam
lilies of the old royalty to the min
ers and workingmen. Each sect
is well hedged in by tradition and
none Of the classes mix.
True, when the court circles
open the doors (and this is rare in
Belgium), each class is invited as
that class 7. and so remains.

Summer dishes may come and
cold buffet platter goes on foreverI
And long may it live! Nothing Is
simpler--or more engaging on sup
per or luncheon tables than an
array of meats and cheese--suited
to the varied tastes Of guests.
There is an easy hospitality
about the buffet kind of service
gracious thoughtfulness about
the provision of a variety of choice
tid-bits that makes its unfailing
appeal. And no meal simple to
prepare reaps a higher reward to
the thoughtful hostess. Content
ment is sure to reign among guests
who are gently leased by plat
ter-ful of tempting summer meat
and cheese varieties.
Thin slices of boiled ham, and
equally thin slices of sharp and
mild American cheese, are, of
course, the starting point from
which all buffets proceed. They
are Indispensable to the summer
supper party-being old familiar
favorites, endeared to nearly every
mans palate. The platter need
not boast an intending variety of
other specialties. An attractive
and quite complete service of this
kind might include simply boiled
or baked ham, American cheese,
sliced boiled tongue, cut thin, and
sices-not so thin--of the pack
aged variety of Swiss cheese. Swiss
cheese should always be cut with

Do You Know

Raspberry vinegar is an old
fashioned brew that should not
have been lost sight of. Try maxi
ing some this year. Put 8 quarts
of ripe red raspberries in a crock
and pour over them cups of
vinegar. Let stand for "a hours,
then press and strain out the
liquor and pour it over another 8
quarts of fresh ripe berries. Let
stand "a hours more; then press
and strain the juice and to each
pint add l pound of sugar. Boil
for 20 minutes, bottle and cork
when cold. When used, dilute the
raspberry vinegar with parts of
water.

them from the hook, they swan

Quincy said. Hes just too dumb

that you could do to save him.
When he's hooked and pulled
away, twill serve him right"
''Now, is that nice?" snapped
Scouty. Gee, why do you always
have to be so mean? 1 will help

do"
He slapped the large fish on the

The fisherman atop the sea is
just as anxious as can be to catch

must together discover ways of using more
farm products ii. E., corn into motor fuel and
SOY beans into steering wheels.
All agricultural experts agree that it will
be long time before industry will be able
directly to absorb enough farm products to
make a dent in the surpluses that have been
an increasing menace since the foreign mar
keJ began to disappear. The declaration" itself
implies this when it says 1t is a plan which
must develop in persistent and orderly lash
ion over span of years. Therein lies it's
strength"
II may be five TO- 20 years. before chem
istry has taught industry how to use enough
farm products to make up to the farmer his
lost markets abroad
Which is Just why there is no real con-
fict between the Ford "Chemurgic" move
ment and the governments AAA program.
The AAA recognizes that it is an emergency
affair. reducing SURPRISES temporarily to pro-
teot the grower from fall to starvation
prices.
If and when Fords "Chemurgists' devise
means of using vast quantities of farm
products in direct sale to industry then AAA
should. according to its theory. be the first to
cheer and remove such acreage restrictions
as still remain.
A beginning already has been made. The
acreage of SOY beans in Michigan, Ohio and
Indiana has grown amazingly during the last
few years. And you can't get away from this;
every acre developed to soy beans in those
states is just one less acre devoted to wheat,
corn. and cotton, of which there is too much
Well. let's not argue about that: let's say of
which there is more than can be sold at a
reasonable price.
These acreages. and the ones going into

HOPE FOR THE GRADUATES

ONE of the more hopeful signs of recent
~ months is the word that college gradu-
ates are having less trouble getting jobs this
spNng than for several years.
Almost every college reports more jobs
available for graduates and several have &C
tually had more requests than they had gradu-
ates.
ANY man who wants work and can't get it
is walking tragedy. But there has been an
added touch of tragedy during the past five
years in the ambitious youths who sacrificed
and worked whose parents sacrificed and
worked. to put them through college. especially
preparing them to work-only to find that
there was no work. The waste of this pro-
cedure has been too awful to contemplate.
Now the reports on this June's gradus tes
seem to indicate that at last we are coming to
our senses. eliminating this waste, and offer
ing hope to the most highly trained, most am
bilious of our young men and women.
Also somebody had the jobs to offer. And
that's hopeful, too.

queerest and dizziest headaches that has af-
flicted Washington and the business commu-
nifty in some time
II is only a fortnight or so since the at
torney generals men were busily proceeding
against business men who violated the price

ment was trying to compel them TO do two OIL
