st. Patrick's Afternoon Tea
One of the prettiest social affairs
among the younger set of the entire
season, was the charming tea, given
this afternoon by Mrs. W. F. Hines,
at her beautiful home on Delaware
avenue, complimenting two attractive
visitors in Tampa, Miss Alice Bull
lock of Ocala, and Miss Adrienne
Phillips, of Atlanta, Ga.
The rooms of the spacious home
were opened en- suite, and the decora-
tons of handsome palms, potted
plants and cut flowers, were artistic
and beautiful. In the reception hall,
the palms formed a background of
greenery, while slender vases of ex-
quisite white roses, added to the taste
full effect. In the parlor white roses
and freize, formed the floral decora-
lions and the library was attractive
with the use of quantities of red pop
les. The dining room was a charming
/ picture of loneliness, the table being
decorated with numerous ST. Pat
rick day novelties, the central orna
ment being large hat in basket eff
feet, filled with fragrant white rose
buds, and shamrock miniature stove
pipe hats, containing the white tapers
were placed here and there on the
table, and the whole effect was charm
ing indeed.
Mrs. George Mexican and Mrs.
Richard Clemis were seated at either
end of the table, and graciously pour
ed tea, while Misses Helen Hines,
Elita Padgett, Helen Freeman and
Elizabeth Taylor, assisted in serving
in the dining room. Others assisting
Mrs. Hines in entertaining were Mrs.
C. V. Miller, Mrs. Padgett, Mrs. Joe
Reid and Miss Virginia Smith.
During the afternoon, dainty re-
freshments were served, and the color
scheme of green appropriate for St.
Patrick's day, was further carried out
in the refreshments. Tiny green flags
adorned the waters, and green ana
white minis were also served.
A large number of members of the
younger set, were among the invited
guests who enjoyed this lovely party,
and the occasion was one which will
long be pleasantly remembered
Tampa Times.

The commission for relief of Bel

scout who will call for it.
Read list of articles under gar
ments needed in Saturdays Star, as
only those can be used for this pur-
pose.
As the world is short of so many
things it is short of clothing, of raw
materials. We cannot purchase what
is needed; we must put our spare gar
ments to the service of the world
q measure of pure economies, conser-
walton and patriotism.
The Commission for Relief has safe
conduct passes for its ships, and the
absolute assurance through its own
representatives in Brussels that the
clothing will be delivered only to
those for whom it is intended. The
Germans have never at any time seiz-
ed the personal apparel of individuals.
