breaking of the wine glass-an
omen of welded happiness-and the
occasional lapses into the Hebrew
tongue.
The ceremony over the guest were
invited to the dining-room and were
RECALLED with an epicurean spread.
As the generous wine circulated dull
care vanished and good cheer pre-

of whom responded to their health
and happiness.
This part of the programme was
constantly interrupted by kilograms
OF felicitation from absent relatives
and friends.
The parlors and dining-room were
tastefully, decorated with orange
blossoms and evergreens, the effect
being Il harmonious blending of
white and green. The presents were
numerous and practical, among them
being a check for 5000, from the
