If society, beauty of surrounding and
..istc detail as the reception and
LOO IN honor of Mr. and Mrs. Rob
49, Fitch Sheldon of Atlanta given
lost evening by Mr.. and Mrs. G, F.
Masses The plan of the rooms was
Soautifully adapted to such an affair,
the long hall with its inviting glimpse
. color and light, the drawing room
coming into each other through broad
..,bed entrances and leading to the
aiming room and cosy sitting room be-
,ord Doorways and windows were
,orlanded with smilax, and the same
Il or,ceful vine was cleverly arranged
& IN form a frieze, which gave a pretty
n Affect against the warm hue of the
walls
The circular drawing room, with its
daep rose coloring, was enclosed by
large palms and the mantels were filled
n With bright flowers and delicate ferns.
n Between the northern windows stood
The receiving party the lovely gowns
Il If the women showing to advantage
q srainst the green background of palms.
3 With Mr. and Mrs. Moses were Mr..
q and Mrs. Shedden, and Mrs. Henry
n Cohen Mrs. Moses wore an exquisite
h princess gown Of point applique over
Z white taffeta, the skirt finished with
2 soft fall of ACCORDION pleated chiffon.
Violet orchids at the shoulder gave
pretty suggestion of color to the cor
sage Mrs. Moses carried American
Beauty roses. Mrs. Shedden was very
charming in pale blue brocaded satin,
with rose point lace and white chiffon,
relieved by a touch of dahlia velvet.
Two handsome sapphire brooches
casped the lace bertha at the corsage,
and sash of white chiffon fell to the
edge of the graceful skirt.
Mrs. Cohen's beautiful gown was of
white silver spangled net over white
chiffon and taffeta, with bertha of
point applique.
Under drapery of smilax one passed
into the smaller drawing room which
showed the same scheme of decoration,
the long French windows half hidden
behind palms, and upon the mantel ex-
In the dining room the color changed,
the deeper pink of American Beauty
roses in vivid contrast to the rich
green of the walls. The round table
was covered with a lovely piece of
Renaissance lace over the snowy dam
ask. and in its center stood a silver
tray holding a tail cutglass vase of
American Beauties. Fastened over
head with a soft loop fell broad rose
vi xnrIaf oh ,,rrI,4
into graceful bows at the edge of the
table and rose-shaded light from above
and from the candles in silver candela-
bra felsover all.
Beyond was sthe, comfortable little
sitting FaorIi, sweet With flowers, and
most attractive with easy chairs and
divan where one might sit for a quiet
moments chat away from the general
gayety.
The rooms upstairs had been set
apart for dancing, and were more
simple, but not less charming in dec
grafton. Flowers and maidenhair
ferns were massed upon the rnantels
ana in the southern room with it's
Delf and blue walls, only ferns were
used, which was a novel and pretty
idea. On this floor, too, there was a
little retreat arranged with a view to
me rest and comfort of the dancers.
Rosenfeld's Orchestra was stationed
IN the hall on the second floor, just at
the head of the smilax- curtained
stairway where the music could be
enjoyed, not only by the dancers
themselves, but. by the guests in the
reception rooms below.
