tractive home Of Mrs. Gibbes. so well
adapted for entertaining was thrown
open. and exquisite decorations of foliage
and flowers met the eye at every turn.
From the square hail, where tail palms
ana garlauds of smilax gave DsRer-like
effect the semi-circle Of opening rooms
suggested fairyland. The pale-tinted walls
made an effective background for q grace
ful frieze OF bamboo. while tail palms
arched the doorways, and the mantels
and CRATES beneath were literally banked
with maidenhair ferns and lilies. The
varying shades Of green contrasted charm
ingiy with the white flowers used, carna-
tons, Roman hyacinths, Freesias, and In
the dining room Gala lilies. On The re-
freshment table only. was there any color
besides the green and white. In the cen
ter OF the table an immense cutglass vase
held mass of La France roses, while at
each end, clusters of white carna tons
were placed in smaller vases. Amid these
charming decorations the guests spent
the afternoon hours, five-handed euchre
