How to Plan a Dinner for a Community Are you going to be responsible for feeding 50 to 100 people at dinner? Does. the thought territy you? Or will .you_ blithely say, “Why, everybody will pitch in and help,” and let it go. at that? If you are one of those numerous women active in church, charity and community activities, this problem might very. well be yours. There is no necessity to be alarmed. But neither should you ask indiscriminately for volunteers. _ According to Barbara Tate, home economist, the success of a buffet dinner for a large group (and a small one too) depends on organizing efficiently, choosing a menu wisely, and delegating peoTate, who tests prodfor them, and millions .of believes that, it is most important. to know what not to do when planning a large buffet dinner. Barbara devises uses creates for persons, recipes “For instance, it would be a mistake to plan a dish requiring elaborate or involved preparations at the last minute. An oven dish that can be prepared in advance is much simpler to plan and serve than meat and an_ sssortment of vegetbles. “Simplicity, too, is the keyFruits that bediscolored and note in salads. come -mushy or greens that wilt quickly can be disastrous, for the appeal of a salad lies in its fresh appearance. A molded vegetable salad centered With a mound of creamy cottage cheese and bordered with crisp. endive or parsley will not only lend color to the table, but will look as good to the last customer: as it did to the first.’’ Desserts can—and should be glamorized, Miss Tate believes. A novel note in quantity serving can be achieved by surrounding a large bowl] of ice cream, balled to facilitate handling, with smaller bowls of chocolate topping, chopped nuts, ete., and letting guests build their own sundaes. If serving space is limited, it might be simpler to have the toppings on the tables hand and pass’ them style.’ Seven women—a chairman and six committee members—can feed 50 to 100 if the work is divided properly, in Miss Tate’s opinion. The chairman plans the menu, the work. members does the ordering, checks supplies, and assigns the The. other . committee prepare the food and then sist in serving. Two women can prepare the molded salads a day asdinner to dessert. Two women can be responsible for the setting and decorating of the _ tables, the napery and silver, and placing rolls, butter and condiments on the tables. The hot Cish can be prepared by two women, one of whom can serve it from the the serving supply.

She looked around her own large kitchen, filled with pots containing various test mixtures for a dozen different kinds of foods. “I clean my own, like everybody else,’’ she. sighed, ‘‘but if I were preparing food for 100, I’d insist that another committee clean up the mess.”” NEW BATTERIES HERE The new type Eveready ‘A’”’ hearing aid batteries have arrived in Nevada City and are available at a Broad street store.
