The Clothes pin" shower given by
Miss Nell Pollard Saturday afternoon at
the Country club in honor of Miss Lii
liam Austin. was marked by an origi-
nality that rendered it particularly
charming.
At the close Of the bridge games
which preceded the shower the curtains
to the rest room were drawn aside, dis
closing a line upon which hung every
thing that could be dear TO the heart of
a prospective bride. The Shower" very
strongly resembled a deluge- The vari-
colored clothes pins which held the pres
enrs were collected and put into bag
for the younger women of the party to
draw. The white pin signified the next
bride. while the one drawing the gold
pin would marry for wealth, and the
green pin indicated the old maid of the
party.
In the bridge games Mrs. A. P. Coles
and Miss Ethel White won the prizes
The tally cards were in plain white,
bearing the hostess'S monogram. The
table was in the form of hollow square
and the decoration effect was particu-
larry pleasing.
The central table held large basket Of
pink and white sweet peas. The basket
handle was tied with an immense bow
of white tulle, from Which long stream
ers ran through the center of the table
to flower-filled baskets at either end.
Strewn over the tulle in graceful
abandon was a profusion of pink and
white sweet peas and ferns.
The bridal chair occupied by Miss
Austin was decorated with white sweet
peas and draped with white tulle and
ribbon. The attractive place cards held
the figure of a bride, handpainted in
watercolors. A delicious two course
luncheon was served.
