WHETHER YOU CELEBRATE the merry Christmas and New Year holidays with a formal party or ask your friends to just drop in, it's| -easy to win high marks| for hospitality without damaging the budget or your leisure. One trick is to stock your refrigerator with an assortment of Camembert, Swiss and Liederkranz cheeses and some glasses of cocktail cream spreads and youll be ready to be an enthusiastic hostess, no matter how many unex-
pected guests ring the doorbell. Just gel out plenty of plates, sliced bread. and crackers and let everyone make his own canapes and sgndwiches. The last of the stocks of Roquefort cheese have been packed as cocktail cream spreads. Pineapple, vera-sharp, pimento and relish are other sli varieties. Incidentally, the war not affected the supply of any of the epicurean dessert cheeses except Roquefort. |

Watch Electric Cords
IT PAYS to keep an eye on the cords of your electric lamps and appliances.

If there is only slight wear, the worn spot may be wrapped with friction tape. Immediate repair or renewal may save serious trouble,
French Door Treatment
IF YOU WISH French coors to appear wider than they really are in order to achieve a better balanced room, drapery fabric may be hung in straight folds from a pole somewhat longer than :the actual width of the doors, say, 16 to 24 inches. That is, hang the fabric so that it covers eight to 12 inches wall space on each side of the doors.
Fashionable Pinafores
IF YOU WANT to be fashionable in the kitchen, now is the time to buy or make yourself half a dozen pinafore aprons. - Theyre becoming to almost everyone and practical, too, since the ample skirt and bodice top cover your frock very capably. Gingham is nice, so is percale, or any other prettily figured washable cotton. Youll find, too, that their simple styling makes them very easy to wash and
iron.
