Special to The Herald.
VENICE. Feb. 13.-One of the most
elaborate society events of the season
was the luncheon and card party given
this afternoon at the ship hotel, Cabrll-
10, by the members of the Crescent Bay
Woman's club in celebration of the
second anniversary of the organizing
of the club.
The lower deck of the ship where the
luncheon was served was decorated
for the affair in a particularly effective
manner.
Festoons of smilax and asparagus
plumosus ferns were arranged. Sus-
pended from these ropes of greenery
were many tiny cupids, fashioned of
card board. The tables were placed to
form large crescent, significant OF
the clubs name.
Extending through the center of the
table was a string of asparagus ferns,
intermingled with bouquets of Vlolets.
The place cards were smaller bouquets
of the blossoms. In the center of the
crescent shaped table was a large
mound of Violets and in the center OF
this stood Cupid, who was imperson-
ated by little Sarah Louise Mayer,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs H. G. Mayer.
The dainty maiden who represented
the archer held in her hands bow and
arrow fashioned Of VioletS and posed
during the time that the guests were
being seated. Refreshments also were
appropriate to the occasion and were
carried out as far as possible in green
and white, the cakes and other dainties
being crescent shaped.
Nearly 200 guests were in attendance
and toasts were given as special
feature of the affair.
Mrs. Eleanor Bingham of Chicago,
one of the prominent club women OF
that city, presided as toastmistress.
The toast list was responded to as
follows: "Unity," Mrs. M. H. Wagar;
Harmony" Mrs. w. H. Anderson;
"Education," Mrs. Olive Todd;
knowledge" Mrs. Lou V. Chaplin, and
Progress Mrs. Cora Lewis. Mrs.
