The big veranda at the Log BIN
Club was inclosed with white canvas
lined with lattice covered with

covered with red paper topped with
lights with red shades.
Bobbing against the ceiling were
quantities of bright-colored balloons
that made a most effective decoration.
The dance began about IL or so and
ended with breakfast in the morning.
The costumes were quite wonderful,
from all descriptions, and among them
Miss Orthwein's was one of the most
original. She represented a bird cage.
The skirt of her dress was of white
satin with gold threads running up and
down and gilt wires running around.
The cage ended at a very high waist

of outstanding pink ostrich plumes. Be

sorts of colored birds, and she wore a
bird on her head.
Miss Chalmers was a parasol. The
costume was one of the most beautiful
and unique at the ball. Over long
