beautifully. At recent one each
guest was served his own indi-
vidual menu. It seems that
when the invitations were sent
out the R.S.V.P's were to be in
the form of what the "acceptee"
desired for his repast. The party
was, of course, a huge success,
and very merry because of the
few who had not taken the re-
quest too seriously and thereby
chosen nuts or ice cream cones.
For they were served with nuts
and cones, much to their dinner

to such gatherings, her first being
the 1928 conclave in Houston,

parents in their apartment at the

and not caring to spend too much
of her time merely going places
and partying, she has surprised
her friends, and even herself, by
taking up the finer points Of cult
nary art.

new recipe, usually with cheer

Howes will, in all probability,
go out to their beloved DakotaS.
They usually spend their sum-
mers out in the open-a typical
Western life, taking mountain
trips on horseback and having
simple meals cooked over crack
ling fires. Perhaps that is the
reason for Senate's sudden inter
est in cook books and pots. Who
knows?
