The afternoon and evening of Thursday the oriental at- mosphere will be felt from the mo- ment of passing the gates. Each of the booths along the winding drive. way will add its own distinctive bit of the East. The first booth on the right will be managed by Mrs. Neligh and Miss Vinton, who will sell Batiked and dyed scarfs, table covers and lamp shades, woven rugs, basketry, metal work and all the other lovely things made at Neighborhood House. Next comes the Japanese flower mart, where, in a garden of Japanese cherry trees, flowers will be sold by ladies and girls in Japanese costume. Passing on from Japan we come to Turkey, where Mme. Panaretoff will serve Turkish coffee and Mme. Proch- nik and her assistants will sell Turkish cigarettes and keep guard over the magic gift tree. Still on the right and very near the house Mme. Calderara and the ladies of the Italian embassy will be game wardens of the fish pond, where the most astonishiing things can be caught. To the left of the driveway and not far from the garfens will be a truly Egyptian corner, where the ladies of the State Department, dressed in Egyptian costumes, will serve supper in the streets of Calfro. Conveniently near will be the Indian bazaar, where the dust of Cairo will be forgottin in wonder over the In- dlan_silks, perfumes and spices, and in the Indo-Chinese jades, lanterns, spangles and brasses. ~And just in an avenue of great oaks and maples at the bend of the drive will be a Chinese city, where, with other interesting features, will be prizes presented by the ladies of the Navy to the winners of Chinese games.
