The prospects are bright for an IN
usual social season. The only danger Is
that all the society ladies will give theil
At Homes and receptions and dances
early in the season and leave nothing fol
the end. or course, it would be an ut.
ter impossibility for any one person te
give more h one-unless euchres are
considered. Last year Mrs. e. F. G.
Young saved the season from failure by
a house warming reception. Again has
she come to the rescue and sent invita-
lions for three Thursday afternoons, from
4 till tat No. S. Glenwood avenue. Mrs,
Edward F. c.. Young will be assisted in
receiving by Mrs. George Theodore Smith
and Mrs. Edward Louis Young. Next
Thursday, December 8, will be the first
of the three AT Homes. The others will
be January 6 and January IS.
Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Young en-
tertained the Odd Volumes, at her resi-
dence. Mrs. Young is an honorary mem
Der of tina club. The club papers were
read by Mrs. Brett and Mrs. Marcus
Beach.
Miss Lucie Nelson gives again, this
year, a series Of song recitals. Last
season was the first time Miss Nelson es-
sayed r~ecitals, and those were so thor
oughly successful that she gives another
series. The first of the series was given
last Tuesday afternoon, in the lecture
room of the First Presbyterian Church.
Miss Nelson was assisted by Miss L.
Gaertner, violoncellist, and Miss L.. F.
Gardner, -accompanist. The other con-
certs will be given December IA, Janu-
airy 16, and in the evening, February 10.
Miss Nelson has brought together again
the members of the Monday Afternoon
Musical Club, and the club meets in the
Bergen School for Girls. A delightful fea-
ture of this club is its informality. A
composer is selected by the committee
for each week and each member is ex-
pected to prepare for the meeting either
a vocal or selection by that
composer. When the meeting time ar
rives each m is called upon to full
fill her task. The club is organized for
the purpose of giving an incentive to
practice to those not likely to Keep up
their music. The club meets again next
Monday afternoon.
