Show Tea for Miss Trent. No more delightful event has been given In Salt Lake this season than the tea of Tuesday afternoon, when Mrs. William C. Hall entertained some 200 friends in honor of Miss Inez Trent of California. Receiving with the hostess and the guest of honor was Mrs. Alns-ley, Alns-ley, mother of Mrs. Hall. Tho receiving receiv-ing party stood In the parlor In front of a bank of palms and potted ferns. A lattice work of plumosa formed a pretty screen over the mantel mirror, and on the shelves were vases of white peonies and deep red carnations. Palms were arranged about the room and va?es of the carnations and peonies stood on piano and tables. In the library li-brary punch was served, and here the decorations were all in pink. Large bowls of pink peonies were on either side of the punch bowl, and vases of these flowers and bowls of pink roses were everywhere on bookcases and shelves. White and green were the colors carried out In the very pretty decorations of tho dining-room. A beautiful art lamp stood in the center of the polished table on an exquisite piece of Battenberg. Brass candelabra with yellow candles stood at diagonal corners of the table, with bowls of marguerites at the other corners. The same beautiful flowers were also scattered scat-tered loosely over the table. White roses and tarnations, with ropes of smllax. were used with pleasing effect on mantel, sideboard nnd china cabinet, branches of syringa filling the grate. Refreshments were served on the lawn from a number of small tables by the Misses Leo Trent. Sallle McLeod, Marge Miller. Annette Ferguson and Louise Walden. Mrs. Rachel S. Millei and Mrs. F. J.
