Out of Town Society
PASADENA

The whole week in the Pasadena So
cial world was dominated ! the sin
| gle idea of Christmas entertainment,
and scarcely a single important func-
| tion took place which did not have this
phase for the central motif. By far
the largest party of the week was that
given by the Revelers club on Thurs
day evening at the Shakespeare club
| house. About seventy-five couples
| took part in the delightful dancing
party, the members of the younger
Pasadena set
The tea room of the club house was
beautifully decorated in pink and
white geraniums, while the larger
room was beautifully set off with
palms. ferns, mistletoe and holly.
Punch was served during the evening
in the tea room and Schilling's orches-
ira furnished the music for the dane
ing.
The Shakespeare club had particu
larly delightful function on Saturday
afternoon and the affair turned out to
be a veritable literary treat. One spe-
cial topic, christmas in Other Lands"
had been selected as the central
thought of the occasion, and about this
thought revolved the entire program.
Music was furnished by the boys of
All Saints choir, Mrs. Elmer F. Wood
bury, the Shakespeare orchestra Lee
roy Jepson, Mrs Julia Phelps, Mrs.
Fred Bittman and George Pedley.
Papers were read by Mrs. ]. G. Rossi-
ter and Mrs. Benjamin Hahn, while
Miss Mabel Bush and Mrs. Woodbury.
gave readings.
Probably the social event of the
week was the marriage of Miss Marie
Mattison of Pasadena to DR.. Edwin
Mcmillan of Redondo. The wedding
took place in the Mattison residence on
West California street and the house
was magnificently decorated for the
occasion, a florist having expended his
best efforts to make the beautiful
home attractive.
The Rev. A. w. Lamport, pastor of
the First Methodist Episcopal church,
said the service which united the
young couple in marriage, and Mrs. s.
j. Mattison, mother of the bride, gave
her daughter away DR.. +. G. e. Mat
tison acted as best man for. Dr. Nc
MILAN.
The bride wore very beautiful
toilette of white crepe de chine trimmed
with duchesse lace and chiffon. Her
full tulle veil was caught back with
orange blossoms and her sole ornament
was a magnificent sunburst of dia-
monds and pearls, the gift of the
groom. After the ceremony an elabo-
rate wedding collation. was served.
One of the charming hospitalities of
the week took place Christmas even
ing at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. AL
bert E. Carroll, $40 Palmetto drive,
Mrs. Carroll and Mrs. Charles Leggee
jointly entertaining in honor of, Miss
Louise Hugus of Santa Cruz. The
spacious rooms were tastefully deco
rated with Christmas wreaths and fine
music added much to the pleasures of
the occasion. About seventy-five of
the younger set took part in the dance
and a most enjoyable evening was
spent.
Another prominent party, that Of
Col. C. G. Green, reached Pasadena
Miss Altadena Green, the colonePs
daughter, who will wed within the
next few weeks Robert Neustadt This
wedding will be one of the most inn
portant social events of the winter or
spring seasons though the exact date
of the ceremony has not yet been an
nounced.
The oratorio program given at the
Shakespeare club house on Wednesday
afternoon brought together an excep-
tionally enthusiastic audience The
reading of papers and an exceptionally
fine series of oratorio selections served
TO make the afternoon pass quickly.
sOne of the exceptionally interesting
social events of the winter season will
be the marriage of Miss Anne Good
win of Pasadena to julius M. Nilsson
on New Years day. The ceremony will
be said in st. Andrews Episcopal
church in South Pasadena and many
society people from Pasadena and Los
Angeles win attend.
