This pretty dinner was given at the
close Of a season for a tennis club. I
say the close Of the season. for xhIle
It was in September and still real
summer weather. the parting Of the
ways had come. as the members were
to be widely separated for at least a
year. The long dining room table was
laid out Ike a court with very
delicate green moss surrounded By a
hedge OF verbenas and delicate fern.
The sections Of the court were marked
by narrow white satin ribbon, and
across the court was net made from
coarse dress material known as fish
net The ends were fastened into
white stain stakes. which were wood
en- mea- skewers fastened in blocks OF
wood which were concealed by flowers
The place cards were racquets and the
favors were tiny wooden racquets,
with delicious ball-shaped bonbons
piled on them.

rows When all were admitted there
was a professional entertainer. who
did wonderful tricks for 20 minutes:
then there were games and dancing
for half hour Refreshments were
served In the upstairs ballroom. which
had been transformed into a veritable
wonderland with a bountiful use OF
gold and silver tinsel
Many little surprises had been
cleverly planned for the mystifcation
Of the young guests. For instance.
there was an immense water lily made
from paper and PLACED before a screen
made from clothes bars covered with
crepe paper and ferns: there was a
petal for each child. which when
pulled down revealed a plate contain
ing an ice cream rabbit. From the
mouth Of a huge. ferce-looking cat
there came cookies and from an enor-
nous snow ball came wee boxes OF
bonbons- There was a witch who
passed favors and clown who dis
tributed balloons. Wasn't this a won
derful party? It sounds rather DIM
cult to produce. but the hostess as
sured me that It had been a delight
to get all ready. as she had the loving
Of q couple Of young col
lege men and two adoring aunts Of the
little hostess.

This affair was celebrated way down
IN old Kentucky. and was such de-
lightful affair that am sure our read
ers in all parts Of the country win be
able TO adapt ideas from 1t to suit
their own needs and conditions. The
Invitations said Please come in a cot
ton frock." This conveyed the idea
that II was to be an informal affair.
The spacious porches and grounds
were lighted with many lanterns, and
dotted over the lawn were great white
cotton umbrellas. such as are used for
shade on wagons. They were on long
stakes driven into the ground. and had
Japanese lantern lighted and sus-
pended from each rib: rugs and chairs
were underneath.
These trysting places were much
sought in the intervals between
dances. There was a large platform
erected with negro players. just like
the plantation dances before the war.
Before the dancing the hostess pro
duced bandana handkerchief-aprons. to
which the men sewed the strings:
then a wee colored china doll was
given each girl. with bits OF channels
skin from which she was to make a
pen wiper for her partner.
The refreshments were typica1ly
southern: Individual chicken pies.
hot corn mullins. tk;y stuffed peppers.
