THE DECORATIONS

To an onlooker this morning, the Peninsula Hotel presented a scene of busy activity. An army of willing hands spent the whole morning decorating the Rose Room in its annual garb of tartan and thistles, in preparation for St. Androw's Ball this evening.

The annual event in honour of the Patron Saint of Scotland, promises to eclipse all previous festivities, and more than 1,000 dancers are expected to invade the Peninsula to-night.
