evening in the interest of the new hotel
enterprise, was recherche affair and
proved delightful social function.

casion with music. The banquet serv-
ed was sumptuous and elegant, one
hundred covers and ten courses. The
table was profusely decorated with jon

had the management of the banquet
consisted of Mrs. Newell, Mrs. Drake,

duty. The courtesy of host and host
