In the lodge room potted piants stood around in profusión and was all the ornament required there. The parlors were fnrnished with plenty of easy chairs and lounges, naaking them very tempting places to while away the time between the dances. Piano lamps with dainty shades of varions colors stood around in different nooks and corners and added brilliancy to an already well lighted scène. The party was a very snccessful sooial event, falling not one whit below the standard of that of last year. The ladies worked hard and were highly deserving of the suooess they attained.
