a game of bridge. A hostess must make certain that her party
is perfect, if she is to aid her career or those of her husband.__3__
The first element that must be considered is the guest list.
Since there are certain guests that must be invited,there are__4__
just as many guest whom one must avoid. The wise hostess

an employer or persons whose hospitality must be returned:
those who should be invited, but are not necessary to make
the party to run smoothly, such as one's neighbors or personal__6__

spouse of any guest or a business adversary; and those who would
not be appropriate guests at that particular type of party, such as
immigrants at a Daughters of the American Revolution(DAR)
party. The secondary element critical to the success of a party is__8_
its theme. Each party might have a definite reason for being, a __9__
certain idea or mood running throughout the evening. While many

fiestas passe, there are many alternative themes to choose between.__10__
