There is necessarily so much sameness
in entertainments that originality in plans
is hailed with delight and makes the oc-
cason doubly enjoyable, as was shown at
the card party at the home Of Mrs. ]. NJ.

Turkish rugs and rare old paintings, are
most attractive, and were especially so on
this OCCASION enhanced as they were by
a wealth OF brides and bridesmaids 8
roses The music room was decorated with
Marechal Mel roses, while tall vases OF
American beauties graced the dining room.
An elaborate menu Of three courses was
served to the fifty-four guests. SiX-handed
cuchre was the afternoon entertainment.
A novel plan was followed out in the
awarding OF the first prize-a beautiful
pearl and gold star-to the guest winning
the greatest number OF lone hands gold
thimble fell to the fortunate winner of the
most games. The second prize was gold
bangled bracelet. The Introduction OF gold
prizes instead OF the customary silver
trinkets was another pleasant innovation
In the midst of the games, Mrs. j. N. Corn
ish, with her usual grace, passed trays
heaped with cut flowers OF the choicest
varieties to the ladies', instead Of the Gus
tomary confections and punch. Mrs. Metcalf
was assisted by Mrs. A. p. Metcalf OF Lin

said that the mind Of the hostess reflects
upon her guests That may account in a
measure for the particularly happy occasion
which Mrs. S. d, Barkalows charming pink
tea proved to be Wednesday afternoon. The
tea was given in honor of Miss Peck, from
to s. Pink in its dainty shades was the
prevailing color in the decorations and there
was a profusion OF roses. Artistic beauty
marked the floral decorations OF the dining
room, where refreshments were served. y
great bed OF bridesmaid roses rested on the
highly polished ornate table and silver can
delabra with pink tapers cast soft glow over
all. The occasion was marked by the con-
geniality OF the guests, who were chiefly in
innate friends of Miss Peck Mention is due
the exquisite gowns worn at the tea, espe-
cially among the young brides of the sea-
son. Miss Peck showed to great advantage
in fleecy white organdie and real lace. The

School of Art.

Heretofore residents of the middle west
who desired to attend a school of art have
been forced to go far east as Chicago
because there were no art schools in nearer
territory. The Omaha Art society, which
has been expanding steadily since its be-
ginning a year ago until now 1t has a men,
bership of nearly 100, has decided that there
is great need for a good school of this sort
in Omaha, and accordingly it will open one
on the third floor of the public library
building November /. The library directors
have kindly granted the use of the two
large east rooms on this floor.
The members of the society are con-
graduating themselves that SO good an in

Indoor Picnic Party.

Although the gloomy season Is coming
on society Is persistent in its attempts to
enjoy the feeting charms Of summer. In
order more to make merry at nature feast
the friends of Mr.. Arthur Brandeis gave a
picnic surprise party one evening the past
week. Those OF the gentler sex appeared
in the coquettish fnery OF summer gowns
while their sterner companions looked their
best in linen coats and straw hats. Lest
the moon shed too strong light on the
revels of the picnickers, parasols were
brought along, to be gracefully poised over
the heads of the merrymakers. The party
met at the home OF Mr. and Mrs. NJ. Meyer
and proceeded thence to the new home
which Mr.. Brandeis has just flied up artis-
tlcally in anticipation OF his wfe's return
from visit in the east The crowd caught
him unawares and he, realizing the use
lessness OF any defense, did all in his
power to welcome his guests.
Games peculiar to outdoor affairs were
INDUCED in and here and there the pic
nickers posted signs they had brought with
them, such as mo Bathing in this Lake, y
Keep off the Grass" and "Spooning Pos
itiyely Prohibited" Later an ideal picnic
lunch was spread before the happy throng.
As the hour for parting drew near farewell
songs were sung and as the guests departed
they wished their host an abundance of hap
piness in his new home.
