AT dinner which Mrs Wanamaker gave
for the President and Mrs. Harrison on
Monday night, the table in the famous Wan
amaker picture gallery was laid in silver
and white. A silver bordered mirror occu-
pied its center and on it was placed an
oblong repoussi silver flower piece filled
with white lilac sprays and orchids. Tall:
heavy vases, holding green and blanched
ferns, and smaller mirrors, heartshaped,
bordered with white orchids, occupied the
sides and ends of the tables. The little
mirrors held shallow silver bowls OF lilacs

enthusiastically ever since on the artistic
nature of Mrs Watson's decoration.
