VERY PLEASING FUNCTION
"Willie Farewell Luncheon at Tort
laud Event of the "Week
Other IIuppeuIiiKTS,
A whole week of such sunshine as we
have just had Is enough to make the
most remorseful sinner forget to repent.
Indeed, It Is no easy matter to think of
anything consistently and for long, at this
time of the year, but Easter bats and bon
nets and other things pertaining to the
toilet, and the shop windows tempt one
to all manner of extravagances. Socl-
ety's religious devotion is only matched by
its diligence In shoppln
The downtown
streets are pleasantly filled these sunny
days, with eager maids and matrons, all
Intent upon providing themselves with
needful spring attire. And the belle of
three seasons is, figuratively speaking,
submerged in a sea of silks, foulards and
chiffon. with a rising surf of lace and or
gandie. In short, she Is unable, at tho
present moment, to talk or think or dream
of anj thing but clothes,
While on the subject of dress, I want
to tell you about some of the handsome
gowns worn at Mrs. Isom White's lunch
eon at the Portland Tuesday afternoon.
They were worth moro than a passing
mention, I assure you.
Some Pretty Gorrn.1.
Tho hostess wore a richly embroidered
tan cloth, with white yoke, a black hat
and diamonds. Mrs. Lang, who has but
recently returned from Paris, and is there
fore authority upon coming fashions, had
a skirt of black velvet and a w aist of pale
blue satin applique. Her hat was an ex
quisite creation of velvet and chiffon.
Mrs. Charles Rosenfeld's gown was of
gray grenadine, with white lace joke. A
band of black velvet at the throat was
a sort of harmonizing note between the
hat and gown. Mrs. E. Ehrman's toilet
of lavender silk and lace was completed
by her big. black picture hat. Mrs, Lip-
man s gown was a light tan, trimmed with
a profusion of lace.
ce. and Miss Rosener was
in gray, with a dark blue hat. Her gown
was elaborately trimmed with renaissance Cn cTufornht " "
lace. Mrs. Gustave Simon wore a blue A,c(,nf c.-XTTT t t , .
foulard, trimmed with net and bands of -JfL S"06 B' ,layt0n
silver embroidery. And there werTmany eTaffif Si SLfS,Ster

and about the table ran a telegraph line.
There was a gleam of harbor lights, and
a white dove, hovering in one corner of
tho room, descended with noiseless wings
to the hostess, as she took her seat, bear
ing in Its beak a telegram from an ab
sent friend. The strains of the orchestra,
etatloned In an alcove, furnished an agree

and laughter that went on about the.

of time, the company forsook to gather
around the tiny tables on the opposite
elde of the room, where ices and confec
tions were served by a couple of hand
some pages In Louis XV costumes of whlto
satin. One of the most charming fea
tures of the occasion was the presence
of Baby Tichenor, grandniece of the hes
ess and who was the recipient of unlim
ited attention.
Dellsrhtful "At tHbme."
Mrs. Alex Blrrell's '"at Jiome" was a
most delightful affair. The charming
hostess was never more, gracious and
lovely than when she welcomed her friends
to her beautiful house on Northrup street,
from 3 -to 5 Thursday . afternoon, .The
rooms were tastefully decorated, and
there were many handsome toilets worn.
Mrs Blrrell herself was most becomingly
i gowned, as ware alao the ladles who as
j s'sted her In receiving.
jLira. vDeneuner gave a pleasant unto
dance at Parsons Hall last Saturday
night, for her "other claas." The
Musical Club rendered a very delightful
programme at the same place Wednesday
afternoon. Tuesday, at Arlon Hall, Mrs.
Walter Reed gave a muslcale. Indeed the
week bpgan with music Scalchl at the
Marquam, Monday night, sang to a fash
ionable and" appreciative audience, for
Lent does not keep people from concerts,
lou know. And everybody who did not
hear Scalchl was listening to Joaquin
.Miller, on the beauty of life and the glory
of the North.
On Saturday afternoons the golf links
present an attractive sight. Everybody
go?. out there, either to play or to loiter
about In the glorious sunshine and revel
in the magnificence of earth and sky and
! of mountains climbing to the clouds. It
is quite the thing to dine at the club and
come home by the light of the rare March
moon. "In the Spring," etc., and aided
by such mellow moonlight as we bave
been halng lately, Cupid ought to be
most successfully busy.
It Is certainly pardonable, If not com
mendable, to express an Interest In the re
ported engagement of the Governor of Or
egon. But It Is rather confusing to road
or. day that he Is going to marry Mrs.
Barry, and the next that It Is Miss Trul
Hnger, of Attorla, tc whom he will give
his heart and hand. Some explanation is
due an anxious public, and besides It is
only justice to the Governor himself to
I say that If he Is engaged to one, he Is
f certainly ana equally pngntea to tne
other, for Mrs. Barry I Miss Trulllnger
and Miss Trulllnger Is Mrs. Barry and,
if Rumor speaks truly, she will "be neither
very long. AGATHA.

Correct Cooking:.
If you cannot find room In your kitchen
for a gas range without displacing the
cooklng-stovo now In use, and yet you
would like to give gas a trial, you can
have connected, at small expense, a two
or three-burner hot-plate, or one of our
small cookers; this will prove how eco
nomical a fuel gas is, and will eas'ly pave
the way to displacing the obsolete cook
stave and Install Instead a modern gas
range, which will give you every ad
vantage In cooking.
Having Miss Suzy Tracy with us again
this reason, we can guarantee success, for
she gives instruction to all parties using
gas ranges. Portland Gas Company.
