Although u great many formal social affairs fill tho calendar at Christmas time, there Is always time for the llttlo gather ings of Intimate friends. At the Chrislmus season above all others the home munuger wishes her home always in reudlness for en tertaining. In preparing for her guests, tho hostess of course considers her furnishings.
