SOCIAL ATTENTIONS FOR
JUDGE TAFT.
(From the Atlanta Journal.)
t One of the most brillian social
events in the history of the Capital
City club was the .reception on Sat
urday evening in honor of President
elect Taft. There was a large and
representative company assembled in
the handsomely-decorated rooms for
the occasion, about 700 Atlanta peo
ple being present during the even
ing. The president-elect and his es
cort were received in the blue room
at 9 o’clock by President W. S. El
kin and Mrs. Elkin, and by the other
officers of the board, their wives and
the members of the governing board
and tneir wives.
Dr. Elkin presented the president
elect to the assembled guests in the
ball room. After a response by Mr.
Taft, he was ushered into the dining
room, where an elaborate supper was
served.
The decorations were most elabor
ate, with a wealth of flowers and the
national insignia. The entire club
was decorated in magnificent style
for the reception. Dancing was en
joyed after supper, the president-elect
dancing first with Mrs. Elkin and la
ter with Mrs. Robert Maddox.
The women present, were beautiful
ly gowned. Mrs. Elkin, wife of the
president of the club, wore white di
rectoire satin embroidered and trim
med in gold lace. Mrs. Joseph M.
Brown, wife of Governor-elect Brown,
was gowned in white olga crepe em
broidered in pearls and finished with
duchess lace. Mrs. Robert Maddox,
wife of the mayor, wore white meteor
crepe, the corsage embroidered in
pearls. Mrs. Robert J. Lowry was
gowned in blue satin embroidered in
American Beauty colors.
• * •
During Mr. Taft's triumphant trip
of last week, Mrs. M. W. Welch, of
Athens, Ga., was the only lady who
had the pleasure of entertaining the
distinguished guest in her own home.
No nome in the state more complete
ly expresses the culture and hospi
tality of the South, presided over by
a woman so eminently representative
of the dignity and gentleness of South
ern womanhood.
Mrs. Welch was assisted in doing
the honors of the occasion by her son,
Mr. John Welch, and by her nieces
and grandnieces. She wore an ele
gant gown of rose point, lace, the
corsage sparkling with diamond or
naments.
The house, one of the most pala
tial in the state, was elaborately dec
orated, the national colors expressed
in golden-fringed silken flags, while
Southern smllax, palms and potted
plants formed a background for floral
decorations in American beauty roses,
crimson and white carnations, and
valley lilies.
The president went to Mrs. Welch’s
home after leaving the chapel and
rested before the elegant luncheon,
which be enjoyed with a small party
in the dining-room, while the other
guests were served in adjoining rooms
At the president's table the appoint
ments were splendid in old silver,
rare glassware and china, the equal
of which few hostesses in the South
possess.
Crimson and white carnations were
the flowers used, and the menu was
sumptuous and delicious.
An incident of the occhslon was
the presentation to Mr. draft of a

cake made by the famous caterer of
the classic city, “Aunt Laura,” whose
dusky face has looked in upon the
feasts served to distinguished Geor

The cake, her own conception and
work, was eight-pointed and on each
point was embossed the names of her
favorite presidents, among the names
being Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson
Davis, Roosevelt and Taft. The con
federate flag and the national flag
crossed, was encrusted, and the top
of the cake was the seal of the uni
versity, all carried out in colored
icing.
The cadets of the university form
ed an aisle through the hallway to
the drawing-room and through tills
aisle the guests passed in line, and
met the guest of honor.
White flowers were used to deco
rate the drawing-room, where the
walls are hung in green brocade;
the woodword, old ivory and the fur
nishings all reflecting the beauties
of the Louis XV period.

wanted his letter to reach a certain

a long envelope of vivid crimson and
addressed it and sealed it in such a
manner as would be sure to attract
immediate attention.
This from Harper’s Weekly:
For a man who is as many kinds
of an un-Christian person as soma
people said Mr. Taft was before elec
tion. lie seems to be getting on well
with the ministers. On January 6th
the Protestant ministers of Augusta,
Georgia, called on him, prayed with
him, said they wanted to arrange a
reception for him, and heard him
talk. He told them a number of
things, among others about his ex
periences with lhe Philippines and
the church there, and what he said
to the pope when ho visited hint. He
said to the ministers:
To the indispensable presence
of church influence in the im
provement of our civilization no
one can be blind who has shared
in the slightest the responsibility
for government and the respon
sibility for improvement In a
people as I have.
What nonsense that was that was
talked about Taft’s Unitarinnism!
