ODD IDEA FOR THE TABLE

“Huntsman's Dlrtner” Not Hard to Prepare—Will Prove Novelty to Most of the Guests. The center of the dining table should represent a field. Make a centerpiece of braided grass, either fresh or dried; miniature shocks of grain and stubble should be massed in the ‘center of the table and in these should be placed tiny birds' nests filled with eggs, and little pheasants and. quail strutting around. A Border of toy guns may be stacked around the edge of the field. At.each man's cover stand a toy huntsman with his gun, or a small scarfpin made in imitatioi of a gun. At the women’s covets place tiny oirds’ nests filled with bonbons or small veil pins made in Imitation of birds. The place cards should be English hunting scenes.
