And last, but not least, it should not be difficult to remember, amongst those you know well, at least, who takes sugat, who milk, and who lemon. Remember your guests' likes and dis- likes.

AA TEA, Slimming Made Simpler The recent rather unexpected heat wave has had at least one good effect --it has enabled a number of people, who were a bit anxious about their walst-lines, to get down to more mod- erate proportions. . ° There is an advantage in this--at least, so far 'as girls are concerned-- even in the economic sense. A busi- mess woman, who specializes in train- ing shop-assistants, put it in a nutshefl when she sald: "The fact that a girl follows the fashion is a point in her favor--and it is fashionable 'to be slim."
