Mr.. Carmichael entertained on
Thursday evening at an deliberately
appointed chrysanthemum dinner at
the Hotel CORTLAND for few of his
intimate friends.
The round table was a sparkling
symphony yellow icing chosen as the
motif for floral decoration.
A large branching gold basket oc-
cupied the center of the table, whence
issued long stemmed feathery golden
chrysanthemums and foliage. The
handle was adorned by fairy bows of
green and gold satin streamers which
afterwards rippled down along the
cloth.
Yellow silk shaded candelabra, in
the form of inverted chrysanthemums
were placed about the centerpiece, and
the souvenir place cards were dainty
japanese silk fans, tied with artistic
bows of satin ribbon in the predomin-
ating shades.
After dinner the guests enjoyed mu-
sic and informal dancing till late
hour.
Those present were Mr.. and Mrs.
Ralph Lyons, Miss Grace Robertson,
Miss Williams, Miss Edith Williams,
Miss Buchanan, Miss Callie Lucas, Mr..
Worrall, Mr.. milford, Mr. George Nc
Eldowney, Mr.. Robert McEldowney
and the host.
The feature upon which will hang
all thought and ambition after the
strain and stress of the holidays will
be the 1911 February floral parade
which is shaping up in great STYLE
Numerous committees have been or
ganized and until the Christmas idea
prevailed exerted all their energies
toward making this feature memoir
able.
About forty-five cars have already
been promised and it's said their de-
coration will be astonishing.
A committee on suggestions has
been formed to whom those DESTROYS
of entering their cars, but lacking the
requisite skill in suggestion and de-
sign may turn for aid. These ladies
are Mrs. E. D. Tenney, Mrs. Arthur
Wall, Mrs. A. A. Wilder and Mrs. Gus
sic Schmidt.
The automobile committee of which
Mr.. Fred Smith is chairman comprises
Mrs. H. G. Noonan, Mrs. Charles B.
Cooper, Mrs. Mamie Phillips, Mr.
Sherwood Lowrey, DR.. A. e. Wall and
Mr.. Frank Armstrong.
1t is to be hoped that the press car
this year may be strong feature of
the parade, which will above all others
hold first place in the reviewing field.
