For a girl who was very fond of everything rose-colored, her friends
planned an "old-rose" shower on Valentine's Day.
As a result, among the gifts were rose-colored silk stockings, a
rose-flowered silk party bag, an old-rose boudoir cap, slippers to
match, and towels with old-rose initials. Each gift was wrapped in
white tissue paper and tied with old-rose ribbon, and they were
all presented on a big tray, the bottom of which was rose-flowered
cretonne under glass.
The refreshments were raspberry ice and tiny cakes frosted in rose and
white, and each guest carried away as a favor a wee glove handkerchief
with an old-rose border.
