The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-12-26

Every festivity of the week told the
story of the srule-tide season. Not a
function was without its holiday drap-
cry from the woods, and yesterday
sprigs OF holly with warm scarlet Der
ries against glossy green were twined
from the homes OF plenty to the hum
bic cots where the wreath at the win
dow told Of the Christmas merry MAX
ing within.
One of the elaborate affairs of the
week was the dinner given Monday by
Mr. and Mrs. George f. Downey in
honor of Miss Poe of Detroit, who is a
guest at the home of Colonel and Mrs
I.iscum at Fort Douglas.
The decorations were suggestive of
the holiday season and were most ef-
fective. Wreaths Of holly tied with red
satin streamers adorned the table, the
effect being heightened by the glow
Of candle1 with their shades Of red.
