Tied to the slippers with green ribbon was a scroll which gave directions for the beginning of a treasure hunt.

Mrs. Liggett served an ice course which carried out most artistically the color of pink and green. Heart- shaped cookies, white frosted and decorated with pink rosebuds, were served with green lime ice.
