| The Misses Mary and Alice Rock
wood are the hostesses of the Rosa
| girls this afternoon. Christmas cheer
is still an important part of the top
les of conversation among these
young ladies.
| Miss Eleanor Alexander entertained
the Rosa girls at the Christmas party
which had as its crowning feature a
tree. Each of the ten club members
exchanged gifts and such gay time.
About one year hence other folk will
have chance to know what an inter-
esting set of girls comprise this club
as they are soon to make their for
nal bow to society.
The girls in their pinafore days had
a happy afternoon with Louise Sey-
bold yesterday. Each guest brought
her Christmas doll to meet the other
| dolls. Indeed the dolls required so

The beauty of the home was en-

and ground pine had part in the

while flags and cedar were used in the
library decorations
spirit of welcome greeted the
guests which is reflected only by
true hospitality, of such the good
cheer was born.
The tables were ladened with the
choicest viands, prepared as culinary
artists alone can prepare them.
The appreciation which greeted the
elaborate dinner was evinced in va
rious ways, not the least being the
animated conversation which was
marked by the most pleasing humor.
In this every guest played an import
ant part in the entertainment. Long
after the dinner hour the members of
