New Year Reception.


Perfect in every detail was the
anagram party given by Mr.. and Mrs
Jones A. Williams, at their palatia]
home on Railroad avenue, last Fri
day evening.
From the crimson carnations en-
twined in the dark hair of the host
ess. lending just the needed bit oi
coloring to her handsome costume OF
pearl grey messaline, the color
scheme of red was effectively fol-
lowed, both in decorations. and re-
freshments.
The beautifully polished dining
table was indeed dream, having as
it's centre piece great mass OF
crimson canations, with festoons OF
the fairy like smilax reaching from
the table to the chandelier above
Here and there were touches of red
in Christmas bell, or festoon, making
the already exquisite rooms most at
tractive to the artistic eye.
The gay party which thronged the
parlors and reception hall until a
late hour, enjoyed to the fullest ex-
tent this unique method of entertain
ment, as was evidenced by the merry
peals of laughter that came unceas:
ingly through the evening. We be-
lieve that the person calling out Wes:
ley as a biblical character, or that
| one CHASING hash as a vegetable
might not have been very far wrong
The game being concluded Mrs. E.
A. Hooton was found to be the win.
