Mrs. Edgar Foster Alden presided at the North Carolina table. The southern atmosphere was carried out most ap- propriately by the unique decorations she had made in the South especially for the occasion. A pair of mules, driven by a little pickaninny, and haul- ing a load of three little bales of cot- ton, was the favor for each guest. The centerpiece was the same conveyance and load of much large dimensions. Mrs. Alden comes of a southern fam- ily.
