were honored witha very brilliant
and elaborate reception given by

day. The Sherrell home, the
scene of festivities, was made
very beautiful with cut flowers
and pot plants, Offset with the
rich dark green of palms and
ferns, together with Southern
smilax. On approaching the en-
trance of the home the broad
piazza was beautifully lighted
and art squares and settees
made an inviting place for the
lyoung people. The magnificent
proportional hall was decorated
in yellow and white and great
masses of cut flowers in yellow,
and palms and ferns were in
great profusion. In the parlar
and dining room the pink color
scheme was beautifully carried
out; the mantle was beautiful in
Killarny roses, and the windows
were draped in long streamers
of asparagus ferns mixed with
the pink.
The dining room was very
elaborate in the floral arrange
ments with cut flowers in pink
and white carnation, and the air
was filed with the fragrance of
them, as they were used in riot.
Gus abundance; throughout the
hall, parlor, dining room and mu
sic room a superb effect was OBJ
tanned by hanging trailing vines
and yellow field flowers around
the punch bowl, where Miss

flowers, forming the artistic cen
ter piece, the high oval handle
of the basket being tied with
