I have five sisters and four brothers, and they would like something for Christmas too.

They can easily be ar ranged where several close friends , live on the same street, or close by. ' Hostess No. 1 serves the first course—an appetizer or soup. The , main course is served at the next < home. A third hostess serve's the salad, and a fourth comes after- I ■ ward with dessert. This is the last < stage of the “roving party," and at this home the jovial crowd spends the evening.
