sounded around the beautifully laid

ing with many of the diplomats
wearing their court or military re-
gala with bright ribbons of orders
I or decorations.
The floral display on the table was
unusually effective, the exquisite
mirrored plaque of the Monroe ad-
ministration being circled with
smilax studded with fragrant white
gardenias. and the gold vases of the
