Them are different types of guests, soon whose visit with 'us is, looked forward to with a real thrill and pleasure; and -the, other kind whose stay is something to be endured for good manners' Allowing for natural differences of teinperament and understanding which always go towards the making of congenial relationships, there are still some. ordinary, thoughtful practices: which may, be cultivated by any guest to the 'comfort of her hostess and to the furthering of her own enjoyment,. A guest should state clearly the exact date and manner of her arrival and the length of her stay..

But you can develop a case any place, any time, if the natural resistance of your feet is' weakened. So• look to your shoes this summer. Wine bottles, empty but too pretty to throw out, are 'collect- ing dust on the top shelf of many a 'kitchen enpboard. An elegantly-shaped bottle can' easily be transformed into what passes for decorative hand-made pottery. All you need is a 'little paint and plastic wood.
