On Thursday afternoon Mrs. J. P. Allen
and Mrs. o. D. Barnes gave, at the home
of Mrs. Allen, what the hostesses are
pleased to call a 'blue tea" That is, blue
in decorating the house was made the pre-
the tea service of blue china, the hostesses
were attired in blue, and to contrast with
this, the floral decorations were entirely
of white. In darkened rooms, lighted
with gas, with this uniformity of color
only broken by white rose or other
flower here and there, the effect may be,
with all correctness, called perfectly de-
lightful. Under like circumstances it
would not be possible to state truthfully
that hostess did not entertain well. But
these two hostes ses were not to be thrown
in shadow by the elegance of the auart-
lnents, and judging from the reports of
the guests, indeed they were not. Both
are known in Wichita to be among the
best entertainers. and their last tea was not
a whit behind any former one. The favorS
were tiny bottles of perfumery, COW
cred with blue satin, the shoppers
coated with blue wax, in
which were imprinted the initials
of the hostess, A. B. The menu was
Sandwiches, Oysters
Chicken salad Pickles, Olives
Chocolate, Tea
Cake Fruits, Cream.

Although Tuesday afternoon was by no
means pleasant, and the elements threat
ened inauspiciously, yet the whole of the |
invited guests without an exception, at
tended the luncheon, that is Mrs. J. A. |
reception given at her home, |
425 North Topeka, Tuesday afternoon. |
The house was brilliantly illuminated, /
and the gloom so universal outside was
soon dispelled from the minds of the !
guests. The house was beauti- |
fully ornamented with cut flowers and /
other suitable decorations The |
refreshments were also we'll prepared and /
served and reflect not little credit on the |
culinary ability of the hostess, who was
so unfortunate to have "a difficulty with |
her domestics, on the same afternoon,
which resulted in a general strike. The |
is the menu:
Sliced Turkey, Oyster dressing.
Salmon Salad Saratoga Potatoes.
Cake, Cream, Fruit
