Brilliant Reception.


Interesting in the occasion which in
spired it and most delightful in it's out
ward features the reception given yes
terday afternoon by Mrs. Edward
Karow was an event to be remembered
not only by the Daughters of the Rev
olution to who it was rendered. but to
be counted by society generally as a
brilliant opening of the winter season.
The long white and gold drawing
room of Mrs. Karow's home on Gwin-
nett street was made more lovely by
white and yellow chrysanthemums.
placed here and there on table and cab
met in great white clusters, seeming
each to belong where 1t stood, massed
together in a yellow glow on the
hearthstone, or showing in vivid con-
trast to the dark green of palms and
ferns. On a small table against the
western windows stood a vase of
American Beauties that added an ar
tistic touch of deeper color.
Through all the rooms the same sim
pie beauty of decoration prevailed, the
table in the dining-room from which
the refreshments were served being
done in green and yellow big bowl
of yellow chrysanthemums in the CEN
ter, with candles shining softly
through the yellow shades of the sill
yer candelabra.
All during the afternoon above the
ripple of talk and laughter could be
heard sweet strains of music from an
orchestra stationed in the gallery over
the hallway.
Mrs. Karow and her guests OF hon
or, Mrs. Charles w. Fairbanks. and
Mrs. Robert Emory Park, received the
callers, standing at the south end of
the main drawing room.
Mrs. Fairbanks was most beautifully
gowned in white chiffon. the skirt APP
pliqued in an exquisite design of pink
chiffon roses emphasized by a delicate
tracery of lace. The same effect was
extended to the corsage. which was
made with elbow sleeves banded with
narrow folds of pink velvet.
Mrs. Park wore a handsome and be-
coming gown of black satin with a
princesse front of Irish point and full
undersleeves of lace.
Mrs. Karow wore a lovely gown OF
black chantilly over white, the flower
| like pattern of the lace showing mos
effectively in the graceful skirt which
ended In deep accordion-pleateo

sage.
