COCKTAIL PARTY AT WINTER GARDEN
Management Hosts To 300 Guests
The chairman and directors of the Winter Garden, Limited, entertained more than 300 guests at a cocktail party last evening at the Winter Garden. The guests, who were patrons and business associates of the organisation, were shown the extensive renovations and additions to the Winter Garden. Hosts and hostesses were: Mr R. C. Saunders, chairman of directors of the Winter Garden, Limited, and Mrs Saunders; Mr W. H. Nicholls, chairman of directors of Dominion Caterers. Limited, and Mrs Nicholls; Mr W. H. Bowley, manager of the Winter Garden, and Miss Myra Makin, manageress. The party was held in the new Sapphire Room and in the ballroom. Huge pedestal bowls of pink asters, dahlias, pink and blue hydrangeas, which blended with the attractive new interior decorations, were set about the reception rooms. On the buffet tables were troughs of deep pink asters. In the gallery were bowls of dark red blooms, which toned with the carpet and made a striking contrast to the blue and oyster furniture.
