Los Angeles herald., 1905-02-19

afternoons have had at least one tea
or reception, and Tuesday from to 5,
societys devotees hurried from one
large reception to another, as there
we're three during those hours, the
Lowe golden wedding, the afternoon
tea at the home Of Mrs. H. Page War
den and the Country club luncheon
given by Mrs. Albert Carroll. That
same evening seemed to be the favorite
one of the week for weddings and val
entine parties. The two largest func-
tions were the Hotel Green vaudeville
on Monday evening and the big charity
ball on Thursday night at the same
place. At the former both planners
and performers were largely from
among the hotel guests, but the ball
was arranged by some of the leading
society women of the city, in aid of the
Chlldrens Training home, which
seems to be the pet charity of the
society people. II was for the same
home that the guests of the Maryland
hotel held an auction which netted over
one thousand dollars.
Monday evening at the Green one Of
the cleverest private vaudeville enter
tainments ever given in Pasadena was
enjoyed by a large audience of the
hotel guests. Many OF the most anus
ing turns and numbers we're done by
dignified, wealthy eastern people here
as tourists, and so successful was the
entertainment as a whole that 1t will
probably be repeated for the benefit
Of friends outside the hotel The
bright curtain raiser was Mrs. L. H.
Davis sketch. "The Typical Tourist
in which she took the part of the trou-
blesome tourist, and her mischievous
twin sons were A. Ford, general pas
senger agent of the Pennsylvania lines,
and J. H. Holmes, manager of the
hotel, each of whom weigh over two
hundred. The whole was ludicrous.
"a Pipe Dream" by Mr. Fisher gave a
series of charming tableaux, IN which
various types of feminine beauty
passed in the vision of the women he
had loved. In this Miss Altadena
Green appeared as a bride. Miss
ulu a ldSebiobihS Shi
dance with grace and Mrs w. E. Grat
tan, daughter of Col c. G. Green, ap-
peared as Black Patti in several oper-
attic selections. One of the most TAX
ing features of the evening was the
Swing Song" in which there was a
veritable swing with Miss Godfrey
swinging as she sang surrounded by a
bevy of pretty girls. Other stunts
were we'll done, and a feminine min
strel show ended the affair.
Mr.. and Mrs. Milton D. Painter of
La .Pintoresca gave delightful select
dinner party Tuesday evening. their
guests being Mayor and Mrs. William
H. Vedder, Miss Grace Vedder, Mr. and
Mrs. MacD SNOWFALL and Mr.. and Mrs.
j. H. Woodwork. After the little
dinner there was general valentine
card party for all the guests in the
hotel Decorations and score cards
were in valentine shape and form, and
the evening was very pleasant one
for all.
Mr.. and Mrs. Irving ChalSe, now at |
La Pintoresca hotel, are to leave early
next month for visit to Japan, where
after months stay they will return to
Pasadena.
All kinds of hearts were strewn over
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Smith of Summit avenue Tuesday
evening, when Miss Olive SmithNa
her brother Paul entertained their
friends. Portieres of hearts, large and
small. hung in the arches connecting
the parlors, festoons of the same sug-
gestive shape swung from the ceilings,
and the refreshments carried out the
same idea. Red blossoms added to
the gayiety of the evening, and the
score of maidens in light evening
gowns with bright ribbons made the
picture pretty one. Games of vari-
Gus sorts were played by the boys and
girls until lat' hour.
One of the prettiest valentine we'd
dings was that of Miss Florence Alma
Whitmore of this city and Luther M.
Row of Los Angeles, the marriage TAX
ing place at the residence of the brides
parents. The home was daintily deco
rated for the happy occasion in smilaX,
white carnations and marguerites,
while in recognition of the date red,
white and blue hearts fioated among
the greenery. In the front parlor,
where the ceremony took place, wide
white satin ribbons were combined
with the smilax and carnations to
make the bridal decorations. Miss Floy
NJ. Row played the wedding march as
the bridal party marched out into the
hall, preceded by two little white
robed girls carrying baskets of orange
blossoms and pink carnations. Rev.
Herbert ]. Weaver, pastor of the Eng
Iish Lutheran church of Los Angeles,
performed the ceremony. The bride
wore becoming gown of cream white
crepe de chine over taffeta trimmed
with lace and pearl passementerie.
