Wedding anniversary celebrations
are usually informal. especially when
the idea Of the celebrations Is carried
out, as for instance, a cotton" we'd
ding. which celebrates the first ami
versary.
A sheet and pillow case party on
this occasion Is both appropriate and
enjoyable. For both men and women
the sheets may be put on in about the
same way. The width is passed
around the body fast below the arm
pits. the two corners brought to the
back. crossed. then each drawn up
over the shoulders, and all secured in
front with a pin. A little practice win
enable one to den these ghOstly gar.
ments in a really becoming manner.
The length Of the sheet falls straight
all around,
Rather large sheets should be used.
that there may be plenty Of ~fullness.
White dominoes may be worn or the
pillow cases may be used. II there
r draperies IN the room, for this oc.
casion they may be replaced with
sheets or white c~heesecloth.
The dining table may have doilies Of
cotton batting or runner made Of il
and ~snowballs Of cotton at each plate
may contain little souvenirs II the
bride wishes to give them
Dancing may be the amusement OF
cards after u~nmasking. An entire
white menue may be served with
chicken sandwiches. coffee with
whipped cream, ice cream in the
shape OF snoWballs and white frosted
cakes.
Bales OF cotton candy boxes may be
gotten in some places 10 which the
place cards could be attached and
south Of the Mason and Dixon line the
tiny cotton bales prepared for tourists
would be just the thing for an affair
OF this kind. In some parts Of the
country, 90. real cotton blooms may
be had FOR decorating.
