-Am. Hi
Carr read a beautiful, description, ot
the Court of Spain from "In the Pal -
ace of the King," then there was an
informal talk about the - current
events In which" all members joined.)
At the close of the program a dell-i
ious and beautiful luncheon was,
served In the dining room. The table
had as its centre decoration a tall
crystal vase' fll led "with crimson carna
tions, resting on a centrepiece of clu-
ny lace. ' Placid at intervals on the
polished surface of the round table
were massive sliver candlesticks With!
yellow shades. The mints, bon-bons;
and tiny frosted cakes carried out thoj
Spanish colors, the whole effect pre-!
sentlng a lovely picture In soft reds'
p"rt velinn-s. Of the many pretty!
ourses, the ice cream was the most;
