the room, where, between two windows,
a group of plants formed an effective
background. The bookcases were
banked with pink and white roses, and
on the tops plants were arranged.
An abundance of choice cut flowers in
bowls and vases were substituted for the
set pieces, the bells and hOrseShoeS,
that have graced similar occasions from
time Immemorial. In the dining room
a wreath of bridal roses and lilies sur
rounded the
MIRROR OF THE SIDEBOARD,
and bowls of roses decorated the table.
Draperies of smilax were hung in all
of the dOOrwayS. and from the top of
each huge globes of pink and white
roses, NiphetOs and hydrangea were
suspended. The musical programme
was rennered by Seibert's orchestra,
hidden from view in the hall by a
large screen OF smilaX and bridal roses.
