LUNCHEON WISE
AND
LUNCHEON FOOLISH
Judging by the various books on the subject of Luncheons, people do not eat at noon unless they have company. It is very probable that this is often the case, especially among women. The man who goes to a lunch counter and regales his inner self with pie and coffee is not so much of a sinner against health, happiness, and prosperity as the woman who pauses in her daily toil only long enough to nibble at the "left-overs" in the refrigerator.
Far be it from us to advocate an elaborate luncheon for anyone who is not entertaining or being entertained. The apostles of the "simple life" have taught us better than that. In a recent discussion of the subject one woman summarized it thus: "I want something hot and I want to sit down."
What widespread improvement there would be in the feminine disposition if every woman, at noon, sat down and had "something hot"!
