THE SMART SET

THE social elect of the east and
those of the west do not have the
opportunity of mingling very
often. and the exclusive people OF
New York and Philadelphia are rarely
guests in San Francisco homes. Wltnfn
the last few days, however, two feted
guests of the local smart set were MT.
and Mrs. Alexander Van Rensselaer, OF
philadelphia. and the hostess who en-
tertained at a delightful affair in com
pliment to the visitors was Mrs.
Eleanor Martin. Mrs. Martin presided
at a dinner given at her home IN Broad
way, and none but members or the
Martin family were hidden TO the
sumptuous affair
The decorations in the dining room
were pink roses, and a great center
piece of roses adorned the table, with
lesser bouquets radiating from the at
tractive center. The hall was decorated
with tall palms, while the reception
rooms had an adornment of American
beauty roses.
The elaborate dinner was followed by
a theater party, and those who enjoyed
the hospitality of the hostess on this
occasion were Mr.. and Mrs Van Renns-
selaer, Mr.. and Mrs Walter Martin, j.
Downey Harvey and Mr.. and Mrs.
Pearce of Philadelphia.
An army wedding that will cause a
futter of interest in the Presidio set
will be that of Mrs. Eleanor Creason
and Dr. William A. Duncan OF the med
ical corps, u. s. A, which win take
place about September Is at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. w. Hoff Cook. The
