All the juices of the fruits should be used | This is served without any accompani ment d'oeuvres is oyvster or clam cocktall Both are made by pouring a cocktail sauce, which can be made by mixing tomato sanuce with a little Worcester shire sauce highly seasoned and having a dash of tobasco, over three or four bivalves in one of the glass cups mentioned bove.

They can bhe deco. rative as well ‘as tasty tid-bit and usually are. The entire course may be omitted and the dinner start with soup. Meat for Main Course. The meat is the main dish and can not be left out or have any substitute It may be plain the hostess wishes or as elabo: as she can prepare.

Sometimes hoth as relish and a fruit uce or jelly are served at one meal Salad Course. The salad should be served in small portions ern States the salad mes after the meat On the Pacific Coast the salad generally precedes the meat and some- times is a first course. It is not one to omit, even though it is merely <sed lettuce or other salad greens he dessert should not he left out either. dainty _and In the East Final Courses. cheese and crackers may omitted. but since they need not he expensive if an ordinary cheese is served; it seems a pity not to have this course. The coffee in half-size cups (demi-tasse) does not call for cream, hut sugar alone. However. many hos tesses are gracious enough give their guests the option of cream. The VoRUe of serving coffee to guests after they have assembled in another room is one to be recommended This menu can be elaborated in many ways, guch as introducing an entree with or after the meat, by serving fruit after the dessert, by having nuts and raisins a final course, etc The he BY THORNTON W.
