Cran- Entertaining Nothing is stodgy or fixed in to day's entertaining. Even the tra ditional is brimming with new ideas. The sparkling originality of modern hostesses is aided and abetted by gay pretties for table settings appearing everywhere in the stores. Thus the hostess hon ers her guests, and provides ice breakers for new neighborhood ar rivals. ' Two definite trenUs run through modern table settings. One is to show off as much of your table top as possible. Even if yours is a formica top, show it. If you've re-finished a beat-up wood table, wax it to a high gloss as if you had a priceless antique. Then use the tiniest under-place mats you can find. Vary this with an inexpensive and beautiful idea: Two or more crossed ribbon streamers to take the place of a formal cloth or place mat. Cross in the center a brilliant red or soft rose ribbon with green for your Christmas-through-New Year's table. Let the streamers hang about 6 inches be low yoiy table. For a birthday or a bride', paste gilt letters of the honor guest s name on one stream er, and "happy birthday," or "happy landing," on the other. Use the crossed ribbon setting for snack tables, too, for TV suppers, and teeners' holiday parties. The second new trend is this: make it easy, make it disposable. Modern disposable paper napkins ' and towels that double as place mats fit right into this imagina - tive trend. Nothing so inexnensive ' ly luxurious and disposable! The non-skid napkins have the deluxe feel of soft cloth and, indeed, they are a unique non-woven combina tion of cotton and rayon. Gay designs inspire bright ideas With the new emphasis on import ant centerpieces, holiday wreaths sprays and shining colored Christ mas balls make stunning arrange- . ments to match Masslinn napkins in identical designs. The bamboo . design napkin calls for a Chinese dinner with a centerpiece of bam boo or a Chinese tureen. The herb or footstuffs design for a man's . party suggests a centerpiece of real or fake fruits and vegetables. The hostess., who pretties her . powder rnom will hang dispos- able hand towels in Christmas de i signs to match her table setting. She can let her imagination go on : the other designs, tooand so can the bachelor with terns, tiowers, . . classic hemstitch, Victorian feath . ers. or lush cilt initials. j The decorating ideas can help s solve knotty gift-giving problems I without wrecking one s budget- with the many sizes and designs . available.

GOOD EATING Free Booklet : If the task of doing up a banquet i. size table cloth and a dozen napkins gives you nightmares, then you'll ' be interested in a new icauei, . "Guide to Laundering Table Lin- ens" which covers the subject from ' removing stains to final storing. . The leaflet is available free from r-Corn Products Company. 17 Bat tery Place, New York 4, New York. ' The notes on starching are es- iallv interesting. According to ' the leaflet, it is only through i starching that you can replace the ? body and smooth finish that are lost in washing table cloths and I; napkins. A light starching, which is easily done in the washer, not cnlv makes table linens look bet- : ter but it makes them easier to wash and easier to iron. Of course there will be the tra-1 ditional turkey and dressing for a holiday, but what about the days in between? Let s make this whole season a holiday season with good food.
