ARMY COLORS

Just to be different, you might
plan your meal and decorations
around the colors of the old Con-
tinental Army, the buff and the
blue. Blue glassware, silver or
pewter service, buff china, tiny
bouquets. And for the centerpiece,
a tri-cornered hat Zone of your
old straws or felts tackled up in
three places), filled with golden
daffodils, pussy willows and blue
hyacinths or iris.
Then there's the Colonial tea or
luncheon, featuring things that
meant SO much in the life of the
good Martha: old-fashioned frilled
bouquets, little and big; quaint
little figures with powdered wigs
and crinoline skirts. And a menu
built around treasured recipes:
Lady Baltimore cake, Sally Luns,
baked ham and spoon bread.
And If by now you haven't the
least bit of a desire to entertain,
there are plenty of little honey
touches we can add to our tables
by way of remembrance.

GORGE wAsHINGToN's

- GORGE WASHINGTON'S
~ birthday may be, to you, just
another of the red-letter days on
the calendar, but to me it's an
occasion to anticipate for days. A
real excuse to entertain.
You see, it offers so many pos
sibilities, this birthday of the
father of our country, not only
from a decorative viewpoint-and
goodness knows there's that,
a-plenty-but also from the type
of parties and affairs in general,
from the youngsters party with
it's cherry-tree-h motif to
the colonial bridge breakfast, pa
triotic luncheon and southern din
ner.
No matter whether you take
any stock in the cherry-tree tale,
it furnishes a good idea to build
menu around. Ratchet favors,
cherry salads and cakes, red and
white foods, decorations of red
balloons fastened together with
green, paper-wrapped wires to
represent gigantic cherries, lovely
sprigs of cherry blossoms, are
appropriate.
Red, white and blue has long
been the color scheme, with tiny
flags, toy drums filed with red
ard white carnations, blue glass
ware and white china, plus the
colors our foods can add, gal
lantly doing their part. Bits from
the life of this statesman may be
introduced by borrowing Johnny's
toy soldiers. connecting a small
fortress out of pretzel sticks,
cheese straws, bread sticks, in
much the same way we fashioned
rail fences and log cabins in honor
of Lincoln. Or the boat scene on
the Delaware.
