UTAH WOMAN'S WORLD Be Proper Table Appointments Important By Ertta Haley PHE HOSTESS who is fortunate enough to have gracious table appointments need never worry about decorations for her table. She does not have to make a hurried trip to her florist or to the gift shop for that something to make the table complete. If she has been wise enough to Invest in good silverware, china and glass for table use, then the picture can be completed easily with a few well chosen cloths or mats. Many of these can be made at home, more often than not from remnants or inexpensive but materials. Never make or buy a cloth or table set that looks nice with things other than your own. You may have seen a table setting somewhere and endeavor to make an exact copy of it for your own use. Have you ever thought it Just might not go with your china, silver or glass? The effect of a well-se- t table is perfect balance and harmony. True, your table cloth may pick up a brilliant color used as a spray of decoration on your dishes, but it should never be so startling as to clash with other table accompaniments. Neatness and cleanliness are of pri 'e importance in setting a table because of the contact with food.

Simple trimmings may be used. Rick rack, braided borders, fringe or a facing or bordering with a contrasting material and color are proper, but a simple hem will do as well. This may be sewed by machine to save time. Napkins to match the cloth are not at all necessary for the breakfast. You may have them, of course, especially if the cloth is to double for a bridge cloth, but paper ones will do as well for breakfast. Mats or Cloths grease and moisture resistant vinylite plastic.

Though brilliant colors are now being used with modern wares, they should never be displeasing as they may detract from the food or upset the appetite. Lace and embroidery on table linens should be used conservatively as too much may give a cluttered effect If china and silverware are intricately designed, use the simpler, quality cloths. Use Colors to Brighten Breakfast Tables Food for the first meal of the day is the simplest of any of the three, and so frequently are the dishes and silverware. Possibly because many of us are just a little bit sleepy, we may use just a little more color in the table appointments for breakfast, than is usually employed tor luncheon or dinner. Another reason we can use more color for . the breakfast is the informality of the occasion.
