A hundred callers from out of town attended the reception with pink roses and ferns, a formal menu, and though in elegant gowns the event emphasized hospitality over ceremony. The next events included a stag dinner for dignitaries and a theater party with supper at Vaughan's, followed by Elks' activities and further social gatherings as the stock convention continued.
