LII Lankershim for the winter, en-
tertained last night with one of the
prettiest affairs of the season, asking
about $50 friends to meet Miss Nan
Marsh and Bernal Dyas, whose engage
ment was announced last fall
Assisting in receiving We're Miss
Marie Gavagan, Miss Edna Wiley and
Miss Cynthia Fay. Guests We're well
coined in the ballroom at 9 o'clock and
there was dancing until IL. Do big
ragged chrysanthemum heads, the
color of enchantress carnations, ever
blossom on ropes of, smilax?
No? Well-perhaps not, but one
brought away that impression from the
ballroom of the Lankershim last night.
One also seemed to recall glimpses of
fairies peeping out here and there from
among the tiny leaves, but that was,
of course, also an illusion, and the
fluttering wings that one thought were
real were only perky butterfly bows of
tulle so arranged that they seemed to
lift the light weight of vine and bios
som that swayed from the rose-shaded
lights at the sides to the big electrolier
in the center of the room. This. over
head arrangement was exceedingly airy
and graceful, and the pink bows and
the pink blossoms appeared to be nod
ding and whispering together of the
charming faces and gowns below. On
the wall smilax and ferns trailed, meet
ing to form background with palms
and bamboo in the corner where the
receiving party stood. Mrs. Cline was
attired in an exquisite apricot colored
messaline, with garnitufe of deep-sea
green velvet and lace. An applique OF
iris flowers in chenille further graced
the bodice, and with this was worn a
collar of pearls, while bird of para
disc rested ON the dark hair. Miss
Marsh was a dream ir fetching frock
of blue, and the gowns of the three
young women assisting completed
picture of dainty coloring.
A feature of the evening was the
favor dance, or the leap year dance.
The guests drew aside from the door,
forming an aisle to the center of the
room, and down this path came the
assistants drawing by pink satin rib
bons a carriage of flowers which was
delivered to Miss Marsh. The freight
was about fifty bamboo canes, to each
of which was tied by big bow of rose
tulle a pink chrysanthemum, and these
the fair bride-elect presented to the
young women among the guests, ana
they In turn bestowed them upon the
favored SWANS whom they honored
with an invitation to tread a measure.
