TIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, DECE3IBER 20, 1908. CXune: IN MAXT respects this week's social calendar has been filled with mor event than the fortnight passed. Prominent among the large affairs was the Assembly Ball on Tuesday evening, which was of dominant Interest. Other events of importance -were the White-' houee tea and reception on Tuesday, the subscription dance on Friday evening, Mrs. Samuel C. Kerr's bridge, and Mrs. Morton Insley's luncheon. . Of Interest, too, was the Scottish Kits dancing party. Very few things are promised for the coming week, and the affairs social will no doubt be confined to home entertain ments and family parties, with few, If any, large events. The Assembly Ball given on Tuesday evening at the Hotel Portland was quite the largest event of the season of a semi-public nature. The Attendance was representative and In every way the af fair was a triumph to the committee In charge, which Is composed of Roderick Macleay, Henry Ladd Corbett and Tom Robertson. The salons of the Hotel Portland were beautifully decorated, and a number of artistic bowers and retreats added to the hospitable atmosphere. The large grillroom was given over to the dancers. In the conservatory masses of chrysanthemums, poinsettlas and emilax were used effectively, with a background of palms and large potted plants. In the dining-room, where supper was served, the tables were gay with cut flowers, and Waldemar rind's orchestra gave selections here throughout the ; evening. The breakfast-room was converted into a Japanese Summer garden, with a tea- . house and pagoda at one end of the room. ' from which punch was dispensed by two little almond-eyed women in native cos , tume. Oriental rugs, Japanese screens I comfortable divans and chairs, together with a generous use of gay colored lan , terns, made the scene a truly festive one, and one of the most beautiful dances j ever given here.
