THE gala reception afterwards
l. at the Legation on Bancroft
Place, with hundreds of guests
toasting the newlyweds in cham
pagne, with a few doing their
toaSting in whiskey and soda,
with generous buffet, decora-
tive with white roses and white
carnations, tall white candles in
silver holders, and very inviting
with golden and white turkeys,
sugar-glazed hams, salads, wee
hot rolls, coffee and ices.
CENORA CASTRO BEECHE,
~ who is an extremely hand
some person, looking even more
so in Shimmering black velvet,
her huge blue eyes bright with
excitement; the First Assistant
Postmaster General and Mrs.
Bill Howes, with Mrs. Howes in
smart black and a turban fash
iored of baby lamb: the Min
lister from Honduras and Sonora
de Lozano; the Minister from
Panama and Nine. Augosto
Boyd, and Nine. Boyd wore an
exquisite Burgundy sh d d
gown, with the long skirt made
of deep fringe flounces: Judge
and Mrs. Maurice Thatcher.
with Mrs. Thatcher in beige and
brown and wearing topaz jewels;
the Jennings Prices, the Am
bassador and Sonora Castillo
Najera, with Sonora Najera in
midnight blue crepe and match
ing tiny hat; Mrs. Louis Scha-
piro, very tiny and brilliant
looking in black and sequins.
Dancing with emphasis on de-
lightful tangos and rumbaS, and
then, wonder of wonders, the
bridesmaids and ushers instruct
ing the orchestra to play the
Big Apple music, and all of them
forming a circle about the bride
and groom and doing one Of the
most perfectly executed Big Ap-
pies seen about here in many a
day. One of the most beautiful
presents received by the bride
was the gift of her mother, mag
nificently matched diamond ear
rings.
When the bride threw her bou-
quet she stood on the steps and,
unlike our American way, she
turned her back on the brides
maids and threw the bouquet
over her left shoulder, and pretty
Martha Watts caught it.
MRS. HUGO BLACK is not
V1 only a very charming, but
very understanding person.
All of which is nice, considering
the story going the rounds and
the peace of mind of the matron
who is responsible for it. It
seems this matron (and she ad-
mires Mrs. Black tremendously
was one of a recent group at tea.
People were discussing how
they had spent the holidays and
Mrs. Black said hers had been
especially nice, with some of
her own family arriving for the
holidays and some of Justice
Blacks family also coming, in
all quite a family party. Eyes.
wasn't it," agreed the above
mentioned matron, quite a
gathering of the clan, one might
say" And-for half a second
there was a frozen silence, with
finally this same matron be-
ginning a conversation that
went 40 words the minute.
MRS. LEO GANTER, JR., who
1V1 is visiting Mrs. S. zeller,
is a most attractive person, with
bright, golden hair and ire
mendouS blue eyes and a flair
for smart clothes which she
wears with charming casualness.
Occasionally she wears a neck
lace that is both different and
fascinating. This necklace, which
first saw the light of day in
Haiti, is fashioned of tiny golden
shells, studded with tiny pearls
and hung on very fine chains
from a wide golden strand.
