last Thursday evening by Mr.. and Mrs.
Louis K. Wilkins to celebrate the
twenty-first birthday of their son,
Richard M. Wilkins. The house was
beautifully arranged, and brilliantly
lighted. Vases of fresh flowers lent
their color and fragrance, and with
rustic of silk and f1utter of lace the
pretty young girls in their evening
costumes completed the fairy-like
scene. The refreshment table was
decorated in pink and green, and
made effective with cut glass and sill
yer. In the centre was double arch
of smilax with small American flags
placed at intervals in recognition of
Inauguration day, and out of compli-
ment to the new President the twenty
one lighted candles which the arches
bore were of red, white and blue.
That the table was loaded with the
delicacies which delight the eye, and
crafty the taste is hardly necessary
to say At each plate was a floral
souvenir for the guest The presents
were many and varied, useful and or
namental, elegant and beautiful. From
Mrs Wilkins the recipient of the

handsome gold watch chain, and from
