which arc taken. and nothing else Is
counted. When the timo ia up the for.
tunatc player who holds the most rod
cards takes the first prize, while tho one
who has the least gets the bloody"
Tho prizes should all DO something
pertaining to the rose. Numerous ar.
ticles can be thought OF, such as rose
bowls, rose candlc,ticks, rose sache,s,
bottles OF rose perform, bonbonnieres,
with candied rose leaves, etc. Upon
each table arc placed four full.grown
In Franco or Mormet roses with long
stems and green leaves, as we'll as a
dainty dish filled with pink and white
bonbons. Each player also has o tally
card OF pink paper and d pink pencil
attached for keeping the score.
Tho ices served are pink and white,
and the supper table should be grace.
fully draped with pink ribbons, with
rose petals strewn about on the cover.
In fact, roses in profusion should DO
everywhere and the lights Oh ould be
softly shaded in mink.
