CUT GLASS TABLE DECORATION.
Low Centerpieces for Flowers Now
High in Popularity.

The new cut glass centerpieces for
the table show a variation from the
deep all over style of cutting to cut
nearer the surface which leaves more
plain spaces. thus bringing out more
distinctly flowers. leaves. vines. etc.
But after all it is the shape am
mounting of the newer pieces which
are their greatest attractions. Speak
ing generally. there are two leading
styles of these centerpieces. the flat
and those of branching effect The
most stylish of the latter are not
more than twelve inches high and
have slended. vinelike silver or gold
support. Half dozen or more small
horn shaped or cup-shaped projections
radiatc from the support at different
angles, each designed to hold flowers
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1911-03-12

The variations of this style are many.
In some designs there is a large cen
ter bowl from which branch out
smaller receptacles shaped like elon-
gated tulips. orchids or wide open
water lilies. with in some cases cut
glass leaves to match. Filled with
flowers the effect of this holder is
charming.
one design shows four rcceptacles
shaped like long Gala lilies with long
stems, the ends of the stems rooted
in a cut glass plaque. Almost any
size may he had i'm these designs.
some spreading out horizontally eigh
teen or twenty inches. y variety made
of tinted glass is included. but the
pure white cut glass designs are the
most beautiful.
The very latest models include large
flat round or oval dishes about sis
inches deep. with or without several
tulip shaped projections from the rim
slanting outward and having a gold
or silver wire lattice cover designed
particularly to use for short stem fine
flowers. This cover removed the dish
can be filled solidly with larger flow
ers. the projections of course being
filled to match
Other very beautiful cut glass pieces
for the center of the table are shaped
like tall French baskets with 4 bowed
handle, the shank of the basket made
hollow to hold water. More costly
than any of those described are OBJ
long and round cut glass center pieces
which rest in skeleton gold holders
raised on standards one and two in
ches from the table. the top of the
holder reaching about to the middle
of the dish or a trifle higher. Most
of these dishes are fitted To with
lattice wire top to use for short stem
flowers, and there is a variety of sizes
shown.
One of the oldest and best liked of
the cut glass table flower holders is
a comparatively small flat bowl rest
ing on very large plaque which pro-
jects seven inches or so all around the
bottom OF the bowl. the glass cut in a

and a whole bolt of bingham of fine
quality. Justice Johnstone's office in
consequence looks like an auction

All these goods except the Bingham
bore the trademark of a store and the
property was quickly identified as a
part of a haul made at the New York
store several weeks ago. But all OF
the haul was not there for il included
six portieres specially ordered for the

COMING JUST TO SEE

Colorado Railroad Man Quick to Be-
come Booster For This Section,

Twenty years i'm Denver was suffi-

River valley on d tour of investiga-

ficicnt to convince him that this is
the worlds favored spot and to put
him in the Doctor Foss class as a

Mr.. Ford arrived in the city yester-
Gay morning. He spent the day in

seeing as much of Phoenix and the

Before he came to Phoenix Mr.
Ford informed himself thoroughly i'm

River reclamation project He knew
how much il cost to build the dam
and what it was expected to do. but
the full meaning of the cold figures
and facts he had read did not dawn
upon him until he had seen the val
ley itself
i am particularly anxious To see
this project "A success because it is
the first big project undertaken by the
reclamation service To be placed i'm
actual operation. There are still peo-
pie in the east foolish enough to say
that the money spent by the reclama-
ton service is wasted. but | don't
think anyone will be able to look at
this valley in two or three years from
now and hold that opinion. The sue
cess Of this project will mean that the
government will undertake many more
