The young people will take a pride in decking the reception-rooms with flowers. The presents will be in a room by themselves, and will probably have been arranged the day before, but there are always a hundred little finishing touches to be put to everything. The caterer will, if required, supply all needful glass, china, tables, and attendance for the reception or breakfast.
There was some hitch about getting fresh beef for General Halleck's mess, and as by this time everybody had come to look to me for anything and everything in the way of comfort, Colonel Joe McKibben brought an order from the General for me to get fresh beef for the headquarters mess. I was not caterer for this mess, nor did I belong to it even, so I refused point-blank.
The debate waxed hotter and hotter, until some of the other members of the mess joined in with the doctor against the pilot, and the caterer, thinking that the noise the disputants made was unbecoming the members of a well-regulated mess, at length shouted: "Silence! Gentlemen, hereafter talking politics in this wardroom is strictly prohibited."
He is a caterer and panderer to English hypocrisy. There is nothin' too gross for him to swaller. We call them turkeys; first because they travel so fast for no bird travels hot foot that way, except it be an ostrich and second, because they gobble up every thing that comes in their way.
It wouldn't do to take those hungry lads for a ride in the sharp air and then give them nothing to eat afterward. They will have to be fed. We will have to hunt up a caterer and hire a hall, I suppose, and " Miss Armacost's face expressed the fact that she was undertaking a vast enterprise, and was rather frightened now by her own temerity. "Oh! I'll tell you!" cried Molly eagerly.
He had a caterer and a great spread. Tea and sandwiches; all kinds of cakes, candies a huge box for each of us to carry home; and the most beautiful ice-cream with nuts in it. Um! I can taste it yet. Oh, but it was larky!" "It must have been," Blue Bonnet admitted. "This time, Billy says, it is to be very select. What he calls a close corporation! Just you and Annabel and I, and Mrs. White.
With these dispositions your majesty may easily suppose we might spend a good estate; and to make short of my story, we were not sparing of what your majesty so generously gave us. This morning, accounting with our caterer, who took care to provide every thing for us, and paying what we owed him, we found we had nothing left.
"This way," he said, leading them through the sitting-room to the bedroom beyond. "You'll want to take off your wraps." A trim maid in a neat cap stood waiting to assist the girls with coats and rubbers. "They're doing it up brown," Sue whispered as Billy left the room. "They've engaged this maid along with the caterer. Just wait!
But we have already had occasion to remark on the laxity of Mr M.'s amatory notions. The Poet, intoxicated with the charms of his Mistress, now rapidly runs over the pleasures which he proposes to himself in the enjoyment of her society. But though he has the advantage of being his own caterer, either his palate is of a peculiar structure, or he has not made the most judicious selection.
Though the old man fumed and fretted at the expense, Checkers insisted upon having things "right." "This is my first and last wedding," he said, "and there 's going to be nothing Sioux City about it." So, though the old man groaned in spirit, caterer, orchestra, flowers, etc., were ordered, regardless of expense, from Little Rock, and all the town took a surpassing interest in the event.
