The many parties arranged for
'nristmas Day have given society
nuch diversion, and in addition to
rhe more formal affairs, there have
been dozens of smaller and more 1n-
formal parties, which are none the
ess delightful.
The eggnog party given by Mr, and
Mrs. William A. Speer was the largest
iffair of the day.
Several hundred of their friends
were entertained. The Speer resi
dence was elaborately decorated, and
ne host and hostesR received under
,11 arch of smiiax, starred with tiny
electric lights. Smilax formed a
mura! decoration throughout the
ouse, and above the arch was a
,<rge star, formed of bright red sp
ies, outlined with tiny electric lights.
Blooming plants, flowers and foliage
tdants were grouped about the room,
ind the mantel was banked with
roinsettia- blossoms and ferns. In the
