country hospitality once again country women are facing their annual problem what to do about the hordes of uninvited guests from the city that have a way of dropping in casually on the week ends country folks have built up for themselves a great reputation for hospitality they are noted for the welcome on the mat and the boim uful table they set for their guests and it is quite true that folks living in small hot apartment in the city come back refreshed in body and spirit after a day spent with their country cousins but why should relatives and friends and even mere acquaintances feel free to make a perennial visit to people they never think of asking to return the visit do they look upon a farm as a place where butter and eggs and thlcki fresh cream cost nothing and the work just does luseh j now that everyone has a car or a friend with a car farm women are beginning to find out that this reputation for hospitality is a bit diffi cult to live up to it was alright in the oays when farmers had large families all at home and were able to show reasonable profits at uie end of the year but now when help is so scarce and the wolf stalking at many a door the arrival of uninvited guests can prove rather emlbarass tog y yet what can they do about it although it has long been a day to sit around you will find more and more often when you arrive at a farm home on sunday that the folks are not at home perhaps they are only having a picnic on the back woodlot but at least they have found one way of eluding unwanted guests campers at the lake or seashore often find themselves in the same defenseless position as does the farmer and his wife but usually with this difference visitors at least bring along a basket of food when they come unexpectedly there is only one place that we should look upon as a haven of welcome to which we should feel free to go without an invitation and that is home to our parents and before going even there we should telephone and ask will it suit ou to have us come the homes of our friends should never be looked upon as a free hotel where we may stay at will casual invitations are rarely meant surprise visits are often embarrassing so when next you take a sunday jaunt to visit friends on the farm or at their cottage be sure you have been invited and that they are expecting jou then there is the matter of repament of hospitality received ex cept in except onal circumstances one should not visit friends unless you intend to entertain them in return and the age old custom sihjt holds good of taking a gift of cand or fruit or some delicacy that wrtll be a treat or some other mall gift that ou know our hostess will appre ciate ldl reading hedh is of britain at a recent meeting mended by perspiring representatives
