last night for the Leap Year Garden
Party with which the young ladies Of
the club entertained, giving one Of the
most original fancy dress balls Of the
season, which has been distinguished
by so much brilliant entertaining.
Roses, in American beauty shades,
in palest pink, in soft creamy tints,
in purest white, and in sunset yellow
were used in the effective decorative
scheme. About the entire ballroom
the rose vines ran in striking gamut
of color, shading from pale pink to
deepest roses, the same color tones
used also n the decorations Of the
chandeliers, the central light banked
in deep rose tones with garlands Of
the pale pink, and the two other cleo
trolieres in pale pink from which gar
lands Of deep rose and pink were car
ried. In the rose vine was used about
the ballroom and in the overhead
decorations only the American beauty
shades and the pale pink tints were
used, creating an effect most har-
monious and beautiful, the roses In
other shades being used about the
footlights Of the stage, on either side
of which quantities of hollyhocks
seemed to grow, in all the lavish col
ors of these old-fashioned flowers.
While in the entire ballroom most
striking and beautiful effect had been
achieved, the stage struck the most
artistic note. Here an arbor of wis
taria, IN exquisite purple shades and
graceful pendant blossoms, was flank
ed on either side by banks of white,
golden-hearted syringa, back of which
were simulated the soft green of
misty hills, and here and throughout
the entire ballroom the blossoms
were intermingled with quantities Of
greenery Of the native smilax, fresh
and graceful in its arrangement, is if
in its native setting.
The young men Of the Progress
Club, guests of the evening, were
greeted on their arrival by Mrs. Dan
IOppenheimer and Mrs. Edward For
cheimer, and each presented with a
souvenir in the form Of bright Grim
son rosebud, and each drew from a
rose-wreathed box a card designating
his partner for the evening. AS the
young men predominated, there were
a few blank cards. but the stays,
while in the minority, were no less
popular for that reason.
The hall was darkened during the
opening tableaux, the only light being
that Of the stage, which had been so
arranged as to concentrate upon the
tableaux, which were very beautiful,
depicting the four seasons.
When the curtain rose on spring,
sand dunes were disclosed, bereft of
any flower that might suggest the
season, when, as one looked, slowly
; and beautifully the snow-drop rose,
Miss Miriam Friedman taking this
party, and perfectly representing this
dainty and beautiful blossom OF the
spring, in her white and pale green
gown. Then Black-Eyed Susan, in all
her gorgeous coloring of orange and
) brown, appeared, Miss Gladys Calm
taking this part, and the Nasturtium
: represented by Miss Goldine Jacoby
came next, in all the rich shading that
} this blossom knows. Ethel Friedman
as the pretty pink primrose, and Sa-
: rah j. Kahn in the white and yellow
of the jonquil, completed this tableau
: beautiful in the extreme.
. During this tableau Miss Eva Der.
lin sang the Spring Song" and as
she called the names each flower ap.
peared, creating all the charm Of
spring poisoning.
All the richness of the summertid,
l was reflected in the second tableau
Summer. The curtain revealed here
S crimson roses towering from greer
jardenieres, about which were clus
J, tered red roses and buds. In the cen
e ire Miss Bertha Lichten, in brida
I. robes, suggested the Month of Brides
> and about her were grouped the bios
: som of June, the crimson rose, and al
0 Miss Sarah Goldstucker recited Low
ellis beautiful poem, what So Rar
: As Day In June? the others in tht
}. group turned to the bride, each witt
: one Of the June-time blossoms as
= badge of her fealty to the summer
tide. The roses were Miss Lillian
Ruth Jacoby, Sadie Ginsberg, Pault
}. Hirschkovitz and Eva Berlin, all beau
: tifully representing the flowers o
June.
In the Autumn-scene, the effective
ness was accentuated by the Dance o
The Hours, during which Autumn
leaves were drifted in upon the dane
ing blossoms, the flowers here beinl
the Pink Chrysanthemun1, Miss Clar
Frenkle, Miss Sadie Kugleman, Mis-
Sarah Goldstucker, Miss Esther Gug
enheim, all representing the Flower o
the Orient, the gowns all being
deep pink shades.
