The
supper-room
should
be
thrown
open
at
midnight,
and
remain
open
until
your
last
guest
has
departed.
Let
it
be
brilliantly
lighted,
and
have
plenty
of
waiters
in
attendance.
There
can
be
no
rule
laid
down
for
the
supper.
It
may
be
hot
or
heavily
iced.
It
may
consist
entirely
of
confectionary,
or
it
may
include
the
bill
of
fare
for
a
hotel
table.
One
rule
you
must
observe;
have
abundance
of
everything.
Other
entertainments
may
be
given
upon
economical
principles,
but
a
ball
cannot.
Light,
attendance,
supper,
every
detail
must
be
carefully
attended
to,
and
a
ball
must
be
an
expensive
luxury.
At
a
ball-supper
every
one
stands
up.
The
waiters
will
hand
refreshment
from
the
tables
to
the
gentlemen,
who,
in
turn,
wait
upon
the
ladies.
