SOCIETY

What proved to be one of the most
brilliant events of the season, combin-
ing as il did the gayety of a social event
with the stateliness and dignity Of
semi-official function. was the reception
and ball at the Odeon last evening
when Judge William H. King was the
host, entertaining in compliment TO the
newly-elected governor and RepreSen-
tatives D. II. Morris and f. B. Ham
mond of the state legislature. From
o'clock on through the evening throns
of friends, many OF them from out OF
town, were arriving to greet the host
and his honored guests, and long past
midnight the company remained to en-
joy the delights of the dance.
The hall was transformed in its ap-
pearance and made most attractive
with flags and bunting. Cosy corners
were arranged on the lower floor for
those who cared more to visit than to
dance. Rugs and touches made the
place more homelike and, indeed, every
provision possible for the comfort and
pleasure of the guests was made. On
the main floor. where the receiving par
ty stood, the host was accompanied by
his mother, Mrs. F. NJ. Lyman, and re-
ceiving with him were Governor and
Mrs. William Spry, Mr.. and Mrs. d. H
Morris, Representative F. 3. Hammond
Senator and Mrs. Henry Gardner, E. W.
Robinson, speaker of the house, and
Mrs. Robinson and Mr.. and Mrs. Sam
party stood beneath a canopy of hand
some flags in the northwest corner OF
the main hall, and here again rugs and
divans made the place especially at
tractive. In the opposite corner a punch
bowl was placed where the dancers
| found refreshment, and on the lower
| floor during the late hours a delicious
supper was served.
Many palms, banked before the or
chestra and arranged in the long din
/ ing room lent added beauty to the
scene, where the gorgeous costumes OF
/ the ladies mingled with the military
uniforms of many of the officers from
