Two dear little doorkeepers. Ada

admitted the guests, and in the charm
ing receiving line were the hostesses,
the honoree and Mrs. John Patterson,
Jr. Mrs. Bryan and Miss Mayes were
both wearing black taffeta, supple
mented in Miss Mayes' case by a very
becoming hat Of BLACK lace. Miss La
nier was attractively gowned in blue
and pink lowered georgette, and Mrs.
Layton in blue swiss with large
black hat.
The punch bowl was occupying a
central position and its base was en-
circled with ferns and daisies. Miss
Genevieve Morrow and Miss Doris
Mayes, in summery pink frocks, were
presiding.
Tables had been arranged for five
hundred and the dainty score cards
were decorated with daisies.

first prize, a beautiful crystal locket,
holding as it's decoration real but
terfly and a bit of natural grasses.
The second prize was a dainty little

pretty fan. A charminely frilly negli-
gee was presented to the guest OF
honor.
The delightful refreshments con-
sisted of Neopolitan ice cream in
white and gold, with white and gold
cake, and each table was decorated
with crystal baskets of daisies, while
the refreshment napkins carried

proceeded to undo the. packages and
pass them to her friends that their.
