A very pleasant and informal reception was given by Hobart Guild at Harris Hall on Saturday evening for the members of the guild and congregation of St. Andrew's church to receive and introduce the newcomers. No formal invitations had been issued, but the reception was very largely attended, some three or four hundred being present. The rooms were very tastily decorated with Virginia creeper, autumn leaves and wild flowers. Music was furnished by an orchestra consisting of a violin, flute and harp stationed in the library. Refreshments were served in the dining room, where the guests were seated at small tables and served with ices and wafers. After the social down stairs, those who desired to dance took possession of the hall upstairs for informal dancing until 11 o'clock.
