IID Society Ciird]eS

AS usual, the last few days of the
winter season We're marked by some
thing of a rush in social affairs. The
dance at Devereaux house and the hop
at the fort gave lovers of dancing a
chance TO enjoy their favorite amuse-
ment for the last time in many a
week.
Lent is not observed as strictly as
formerly, still there are sufficient num-
bers among the society leaders whose
religious scruples prevent them from
dancing during that period as to make
that pastime questionable from Ash
Wednesday until Easter. while the
remainder, who are not opposed to
dancing, are glad of an excuse for a
much-needed rest and also an oppor-
tunity to vary their form of amuse-
ment.
A prominent young LADY of the city
has planned a number of charity teas
and luncheons which she will give
during the Lenten DAYS; the proceeds
viii go towards providing and main
tanning a bed in one of the hospitals.
and as she is known as a delightful
entertainer, the success of her plan is

The reception and dance given at

Frank w. Jennings Thursday evening
was the most elegant private affair of
the season, and was enjoyed by over
$50 guests.
The decorations, from an artistic
standpoint, were more beautiful than
has ever before been seen in q private
house in the city. The whole-lower
floor had been thrown open and in
each room an effective and original
scheme of decoration had been carried
out.
An oriental effect was obtained in
the hall by the skillful Engagement of
divans with u background of hand
some rugs and draperies. while the
COW corner beneath the stairs was
gorgeously fitted up in japanese
fashion. The walls were hidden with
handsomely embroidered banners, and
from the ceiling was suspended an
enormous umbrella, beneath which
stood Chinese Jim in gorgeous cos
tune serving punch.
In the reception room a forest of
palms made a rich background for the
receiving party, while bowls of red
carnations added to the effect
