We will suppose it is to be a luncheon. If a large table is to be used, be sure it is spread with a ne linen cloth, preferably one with a clover leaf design or one of those new green satin damask cloths.

A centrepiece of sham- rocks and pink frezias or a plant of pink oxalis is most effective com- bined with place cards made from Shamrocks or Paddy s Hat cut out of green cardboard. The ingenuity of the hostess may be allowed full play when it comes to decoraiions, wided she does not overdo things. `he luncheon menu might consist which were sent to the Barrie Shelter me swweci. while pleasing variety was given by poems from a Canadian writer, read by Miss Simmons.
