Show Dinner for Company Nothing is so inelegant as trying to "put on airs." At a party you offer your guests a little more than you would have if you were dining alone, the reason being that you do not know exactly what they like and therefore provide a wider choice than you would for your family with whose tastes you are familiar. A gay and pretty house, a charming table, well-prepared and well-served food, offer the formula for a successful party. If the hostess is straining every ev-ery nerve, and it Is evident that she has undertaken more than she can accomplish with ease and pleasure, a dinner or luncheon Is almost doomed to failure.
