The Period Style Of Decoration Still

The period style of table decoration
still rules, but the details Of partic-

dining rooms which now prevail Arti-
fetal flowers and leaves may be used
for table decoration.
Perhaps one of the most delightful
Of tables is that which is decorated
with autumn leaves and berries dis

The loss through the fire is estimated

called for greater wealth than was de-
stroyed by the fire and far exceeded
the cost of building the Panama canal.
Since the fire S242 100000 has been ex-

Today San Francisco is the newest

enforced concrete structures. 1t has

In preparing for the Panama Pacific

violets and orchids, with lamp snades
to match. The centerpiece OF this,
which is design to represent water
lilies. is quite original and is a beau
tiful work of art. A scheme suitable
for an eighteenth century room has
wall flower decoration in vases and
sprays Of smilax on the tablecloth.
This Is simple and extremely dainty.
Poppies are leading note in another
of the schemes, the lamp shades here
with the deep fringe being very effec-
tive. For a family dinner table there
is a scheme of holly which produces a
warm. decorative effect and which is
also homely and comfortable.
A word should be said about the
new table linen. Irish lace and linen
are particularly noticeable; also some
beautiful examples Of Italian needle
work point Circular tablecloths have
been introduced with Irish crochet
centers for round tables. Where q
tablecloth is not used lace and linen
dinner mats are employed on the beau
tiful polished surface Of the table. A
feature Of all these schemes is that
they are inexpensive and easily adapt

The Panama-Pacific International ex-
position was first proposed by Mr.. R.
B. Hale. merchant of San Francisco,
In 1904. Mr.. Hale wrote letter to the
Merchants association, and the idea
took like wildfre. At that time it was
anticipated that the canal would be
opened in 1913, and 1913 was the date
set for the exposition. An organiza-
ton Of the commercial bodies began
the preliminary work. but in 1906 came
the fire. No one was dismayed. In a
shack built over embers hardly cool
dry goods merchant placed a great
sign. "Panama-Paciflc International
Exposition. San Francisco. 1913." and
this became the battlecry in the fight
to build new city.
