The last reception of the Alta club
surpassed all former receptions given
by that club. 1t fully deserved the
too often misapplied description, "A
brilliant affair" The social record of
the year. is no longer complete without
reception or ball in the sumptuous
apartments of the Alta club. This
yearly function has come to be a per-
manent institution. A complete ac-
count Of the reception of Thursday
evening appeared in Fridays Herald.
The Athletic association of the Uni
versity of Utah gave a ball at Christ
ensen's hall on Friday evening. 1t was
largely attended and well managed,
and beside being an occasion OF much
pleasure to all participating, a neat
sum was melted for the association.
Mrs. IT. Egan gave a very delightful
Brownie progressive high five party at
her home on Sixth East street last
Wednesday evening. The game was
so called from the fact that card
was pinned to the person of each guest
with q brownie pin, that of each gen.
tleman. containing the name of a coun-
try through which the brownies had
passed in their travels and that of
each lady containing the name of a
capital. The lady and gentleman hav-
ing the cards representing the country
and its capital were partners. The
winners of prizes were Mrs. Driscoll,
TO whom was awarded a hand-painted
winter scene. The gentleman's first
prize. a silver letter holder, was won
by Mr.. Luce. Mrs. Charles Egan was
MI of al
prize, a rag brownie, and Mr.. Jack,
the gentleman'S consolation prize, a
mock glass of wine. His unsuccessful
attempt to drink the sparkling liquid
afforded much amusement to the
guests present. A very pleasant even
ing was spent by the company.
At the Denhalter ball Christmas eve
army life was represented in a realistic
way, guns, knapsacks and canteens be-
ing hung about the wall. The platform
on which the musicians were stationed
represented a camping ground, the
tent and pine trees besprinkled with
cotton, forming a very picturesque
scene.

Miss Macintosh gave an elegant
little luncheon yesterday. in which the
beauty of the decorations was exceeded
only by the sumptuousness of the menu.

Christmas garniture of holly and red
ribbons. The centrepiece of the table
decorat tons consisted of a tall vase,
surrounded by six smaller ones, con-
tanning red carnations, and twined
about the vases and massed between
