Birthday of St. Patrick Irish Party at Home of Mrs. V. J. La Rose Prized Old Silver, Moss and Shamrock from Dublin Are Displayed The birthday of St. Patrick, always an occasion for celebration among natives of Erin, was delightfully ob-| served this afternoon at the home of Mrs. V. J. LaRose, 522 Sixth street, when Mrs, LaRose and her sister, Mrs. Thomas B. Cayou, entertained a company of 36 guests, many of them natives of Ireland. Hours were from 3 until 5. Mrs. Florence Davis spoke on “The Glories of Ireland,” giving a summary of the achievements of that country, and Mrs. LaRose, who made a trip to Ireland recently, described many in- teresting places visited. Elizabeth Ann LaRose and Virginia Cayou, in native costume, presented an Jrish tap dance. Mrs. E. E. Morris read an old Hibernian selection, “To Bally Bree.” A group of old Irish melodies by Tom Moore, including his “Meeting of the Waters,” and selections from Michael Balfe’s “Bohemian Girl,” were given by Mrs. LaRose. During her stay in Ireland, Mrs. LaRose made a visit at the home of Moore, and of Balfe in Dublin, and also visit- ed that spot in the vale of the Avoca, where Moore was inspired to write: “There is not in the world a valley so sweet. “As that vale in whose bosom the bright waters meet; Oh, the last rays of. feeling and life must depart, “Ere the bloom of that valley shall fade from my heart.” Selections from Victor Herbert and other Irish composers were played by Mrs. P. E. Byrne, and Emmett Grif- fin sang a number of Irish folk songs. An effective touch was given, when Elizabeth Ann LaRose. standing beneath an Irish harp, sang “The Harp That Once Thro’ Tara's Halls.” Festoons of green, suggesting Irish moss, draped the doorways and win- dows, and green shades dimmed the lights. An Irish harp, in a setting of green moss, occupied a prominent place. ‘ A‘sumber of pieces of rare old Iris silver, collected by Mrs. LaRose dur- ing her travels, were on display, as was a box of Irish moss and sham- rock, received only today from a friend in Dublin. Refreshments in green and white further carried out the Irish motif.
