The ladies with- drawing to the bower, and the men to the study, to meet again in the hall after the table and its contents have been removed. For the dance, the hall, with its gallery for the musicians, is specially adapted — the supper being served in one of its recesses. It will thus be seen that the type of plan suggested by the daily requirements of the family is not ill-adapted for occasional festivities, and the possession of one large 37 HOUSES AND GARDENS central apartment will more th...an compensate for any failure to meet the arbitrary conditions of conventional usage. In less formal gatherings, such as family re-unions at Christmas for instance, the central hall with its great open fireplace will meet the occasion much better than the house designed as a row of boxes connected by a passage. In the average house the accommodation required for the resident governess, or for that singular anomaly, the paying guest, known in circles less polite as the lodger, or for the occasional visitor staying in the house, will not suggest any further modification of the plan than the inclusion of a bed-sitting-room.
