Mrs. James A. Going, president of the
Cadmean circle, entertained the mem
bers yesterday afternoon at 2 o’clock
with a beautiful lecture-luncheon. Be
sides the members of the circle there
were a few Invited guests present. The
home was elaborately decorated with
holly, mistletoe, ivy and magnificent
palms, and vases of royal red roses were
placed on tables and mantels. Previous
to the luncheon Miss Allen, literary
leader of the Cadmean circle, read in her
refreshing, delightful, magnetic way a
description of her travels, touching
chiefly upon her visits to Edinburg, Glas
gow, Paris and London. It was a genu
ine treat to every woman present, and
Miss Allen received tl e enthusiastic ap
preciation of her audience.
After her lecture the ladies were given
exquisite cards, indicating their positions
at the various tables. These cards were
prettily painted in water colors, repre
senting winter scenes, and were marked
In gold lettering, with "C. C., Xmas,
1895," and the name of the especial guest
and the table at which she was to sit.
There were nine tables. At the first sat
Mrs. Going and Miss Allen during the
luncheon, and at the first course on
either side of them were several of the
ex-presidents of Cadmean circle. After
each course two ladies at every table
progressed, the matter being decided by
drawing from dainty envelopes, tied with
crimson ribbons. The decorations were
crimson; candles were tied with crimson
ribbons, red roses and the red blossoms
of potted plants gave a glow of beauty
to everything. The guests's cards were
also tied with crimson ribbons. The
menu was delicious and elaborate, and
was served in very many courses. The
first table was adorned with a wreath
of holly and mistletoe. It was a beauti
ful compliment from Mrs. Going to the
Cadmean corcle, and was Immensely en
joyed by each member and guest pres
ent. The circle will meet next Friday
afternoon with Mrs. George C. Ball.
