The Wausau club was the scene on
last Wednesday evening of a most
brilliant function, Mr.. and Mrs. d. C.
Everest being the host and hostess.
The guests responded to invitations
about nine o'clock and were received
by Mr.. and Mrs. Everest in the parlors
Of the club house. These rooms were
prettiIy decorated with plants and
ferns At about nine-thirty the COM
pany repaired TO the dancing hall,
which was discovered dressed COM
pletely in autumnal colors; large
tree branches were massed in the
corners of the hall and through their
foliage shone the glow of immense
japanese lanterns. Garlands and
branches of yarieolored leaves were
strung from the corners of the cell
ing TO the chandeliers and back to the
sides of the wall. Strung with the
garlands were myriads of different
softly colored and lighted lanterns,
giving the impression, as one looked
up, OF a miniature forest gayly decked
for festival. The lanterns cast a
pretty glow over the many lovely
pastel tinted gowns of the ladies. A
program of eighteen dances with
extras was played by the orchestra
and enjoyed to the fullest extent by
the dancers. At midnight a chatting
dish supper was served in the dining
room where a number of small tables
were set, each conferred by a ported
plant and decorated with pretty can
dies. Each table also held a chafng
dish over which one gentleman at the |
table presided. Dancing was later re-
samcd until two o'clock, when Mr.. and |
Mrs. Everest received many cOngrat- |
UlatiOns on the success of the affair. |
Among those from out Of town were
