music room were daintily fragrant
with clusters of pale pink baby roses
and young lace maidenhair fern
which were confined in many dainty
baskets caught with pink satin bows.
House palms on pedestals formed
a more somber and delightfully."- con-
trasting background.
The young guests arrived about
eight o'clock in their motor cars and
were graciously received by the host
ess, assisted by her two guests OF
honor.
And thenceforth, during the even
ing delightful informally reigned.
The first diversion was a game Of
motors and flowers, the mis-spelled
names of twenty motor cars and bios

boys and girls respectively.

presented to Miss Helen Jones, who
unfolded a handsome Satsuma hat

When Miss Flora Zabelle, who will

and realizes that within an hour she
must don the habi1iments of an opera
singer, she quickens her pace toward
the theater. The part of Sylvia Brid-
well in this play offers her new charms
at each performance. From the time
she enters the theater until the finale
she feels that she is living in a new
atmosphere. Miss Zabelle is an Ar
menian by birth, but is now thorough
ly Americanized. She possesses all the
beauty and charm that the Marsovian
race are noted for. She is an artistic

production. of 'tBen-Hur,'' which will
be disclosed at the Grand opera house
on Thursday evening, March 2. All
that relates to the religious element
in this powerful story is treated with
the utmost respect and reverence and
ministers and church goers generally
endorse "Ben-Hur" as great lesson
for the lover of Biblical lore. The
dramatic side of the story has been
no less carefully considered. The story
of Ben-Hur's love for Esther: the
fascination of Ben-Hur by the Egyp-
tian Iras. and the rivalry of the Ro
man MESSIAH for her favor: the hatred
which springs up between the two
men-all go to make up tale of in
trigue and power such as is seldom
seen within the walls of a theater.

ed to Thursday, Friday and Saturday
