After the dizzy round Of carnival
gayeties, a duh weak was to be an
ticipated. Hardly anything occurred
to awaken society from Its lethargy,
save one or two very small and very
informal gatherings. 1t is not by any
means, though, a Rip Van Wrinkle
sleep in which the social leaders are
INDUCING, and by next week affairs will
be going on at full swing again.
The yearly exodus of the fashion
ables to summering places has already
begun, and many more within the next
week will desert the charms that lie
scattered under the trumpet and shad-
ows of Moroni.
That means that home gatherings
from now on will be very much on the
wane, and locally society will be
very dali thing indeed. Just at present
st looks as though those who are TO
remain in Zion may take some encour-
agement, as there will not be nearly
so many this year as last who Will go
off in search Of other fields and pas
lures new.
The fate of the home-stayers will not
be so bad after ali. Jaunts out to the
lake are soul-satisfying things, and
Salt Lake, in the flush of her summer
garb, approaches almost to the dignity
of a summer resort herself Many OF
the fashionables who love not TO linger
on her brine-washed borders during
the summer will seek out the land OF
grange blossoms and gold, but most
of the social overf1uX Will be content TO
fee to the mountains that throw up
,o;y- CfS To The CEOQQS
around and above the sky-cradled city
