IN SOCIETY

The Loan Lace exhibit is quite as unique as it is beautiful and instruc- tive. Never has there been such a collection of lace in New Haven. Coming from all parts of the city it represents many nationalities, and many tastes. Besides historical and ancestral pieces there are specimens of modern lace designed and made by former resident of our city, Mrs. Lucy TroVbridge Ingersoll of Rye, x. r.. who writes that there Is much enthusiasm shown in this industry, Some lovely specimens Of Brussells Point Poin Applique and Mechlin laces owned and worn by members of the Edwards family, loaned by the Miss Chaplane, have an air of distinc- ton about them which will be sure to attract Mrs c. B. Doolttle's and Mrs. Seymours fine exhibit which fills two cases will repay close study. Mrs. J. K. Beach contributes much choice and beautiful lace formerly owned by her mother, Mrs. Sandford of New York Time and space forbid the numerating of single specimens of lace which are no less worthy of notice. Those who wish to make a thorough study of the exhibit had best come in the morning, and if those at tending own magnifying glasses 1t would be well to bring them. On Tuesday afternoon there will be an informal talk about lace and lace making at the Historical rooms by Miss Beach of Hartford. The exhibit opens this morning at 10 o'clock.
