RECEPTION BY MRS. C. S. MILLEN

One of the prettiest of social functions for the month of June was the reception given Wednesday afternoon by Mrs. Chas. Millen at her residence on Lawrence Street.

The house was fragrant with June roses and other blossoms. Red being the prevailing color in the parlors and hall. Great bunches of red roses, poppies and honeysuckle were arranged about the rooms.

In the dining room a profusion of green vines gave it an almost sylvan appearance. The dining table was daintily spread and a mammoth bouquet of pink peonies made an attractive centerpiece and provided a welcome bit of color to the room.

Mrs. Cornwell and Mrs. Burr served at either end of the table. Mrs. Cornwell looked charming in a pink gown which matched the flowers in the room. Mrs. Burr wore a beautiful gown of red, which harmonized beautifully.

Mrs. Millen was assisted in receiving her numerous guests during the reception hours by Miss Robinson. Mrs. Millen will give another reception on June 29.
