had christened the dress at some
merry gath ering, little dreaming
that it would become a priced

her powdered hair, Mrs. Mayo

Whist was played, and at the
conclusion of the contest, an
elaborate salad and oyster course
was served. Accompanying this
was an ice appropriately decorat-

its center a tiny American flag.
