 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.
 Of him who doth kindly deed;
 Of what he gives he hath part
 And this supp1yeth all his need. MR. AND MRS. HORACE SPRING.
 FELLOW ENTERTAIN
 FOR MISS BALDWIN. In compliment to Miss Katherine Er- win Baldwin, who is one of the seasons debutantes. Mir. and Mrs. Horace Stringfellow entertained at brilliant reception Wednesday evening at their hoyna an Sfyre Street 4. The decorations were elaborate and beautiful. In the entrance hall tho color tone was green, profusion or Southern smilax and stately palms were used. In the first parlor where the re- ceiving party stood. the color tones or pink and green was used, the soft green of the walls forming pretty background for the graceful festoons of S0uthern smilax which covered It. Potted pink begonias and wealth or Killarney roses made bright line or color against the vivid mass of green. Pink tapers, in silver candelabra with pink shades shed soft glow over the scene.
 In the next apartment white and green were in evidence throughout.
 The walls were festooned with srni- lax and bamboo, while here and there were innumerabIe vases of white roses arranged in bouquet clusters. The tapers in the silver candeiabra were also white. Passing into the third par Tor the artistic tones of pink and green again greeted the eye. Southern smi- lax in graceful twinings covered the walls and the chandelier was also cov- cred with it. the brilliant lights peep ing In and out among the green.
 Here the coffee tables were placed. They were covered alike with drawn Canton work cloths. and similarly dec- orated with vases of pink roses. soft light was thrown over the tables from the pink shaded tapers burning in silver candelabra.
 Music lent charm to the evening and in the room where the orchestra was stationed the decorations took on the Christmas tones of red and green.
 The cabinets were banked with ferns and here and there crimson poinsettias added bright bit of color.
 The tapers in this room were red, as were the shades. Refreshments were served.
