A lovely affair of New Years after

with pink hearts, floating in garlands
and pink carnations in vases about
the rooms.
Guests cut silhouettes of the BRIDE
elect, and the shadow outlines Of her
profile were pasted on blank leaves
of a book to be reminder of this, her
first pre-nuptial shower. And wishes
were written on pink cards, which
also were presented to the honor guest
as souvenirs. Strings attached to
small pink hearts revealed, when
traced to their hiding places, for
tune written on a big pink heart for
each maiden, while the honored one
was led to the doors of a music cab
met which, opening, disclosed a pyr-
amid of the daintiest packages. Miss
