Sallie Harrison Chapter N.S.D.A.R. Honors Mrs. Brooke E. White Jr. The Sallie Harrison Chapter N.S.D.A.R. entertained most delightfully Thursday evening at a bridge party at the Sanford Yacht Club honoring Mrs. Brooke E. White, Jr., of Jacksonville, state regent of the D.A.R., who is visiting in this city as the guest of Mrs. John W. Meisch Jr. The chapter colors, blue and gold were featured in the decorations and other details. Bowls of calendulas and ferns were used artistically about the spacious club room where the card tables had been spread for play. The tallies were done in the chapter insignia and the pencils and other bridge accessories were also in blue and gold. Greeting the guests upon arrival were Mrs. William T. Fields, Mrs. John Leonardi, chapter regent, Mrs. Brooke E. White, Jr., Mrs. W. E. Watson, and Mrs. R. E. Tolar. Games of progressive bridge were played during the evening and proved most interesting.
