The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1897-10-24

How many debutantes will be presented
to society this season is not quite GER
tain, but of six at least one can be sure,
and they make an interesting little group.
Three are almost strangers to Savannah,
and the charm of uewness will make their
appearance even more interesting. Miss
Hattie Elliott, whose life has been passed
almost entirely among southern surround
ings, is no novice to the fashionable
world, for at the White Sulphur, where
she spends her summers, she has, though
so young, enjoyed a great measure of
popularity. Miss Malie Hammond has
spent the last four winters at Mrs. Reds
fashionable New York school, and her
vacations in Europe SO that she has be-
come quite stranger here, and the re-
opening of her mothers home on For
syth park for a winters entertaining
will be quite an event. The two home
girls are Miss Annie Maclean and Miss
Edith Johnston, who have no need to be
welcomed in society's midst. Miss John
ston was away last winter at the Bryh
for two years been attending Mrs. Lee
febvre's well-known boarding school in
Baltimore. Miss Lila Low, who, unlike the
others, is not even Of the states" will
come from Canada later on to be with
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Shearson at their
charming new house on Hall street. The
latest arrival will be Miss Eleanor Green.
the eldest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs Ed
ward Green. Miss Green's girlhood has
been passed entirely in France, where in
all things pertaining to education she has
been brought up like a French girl, al
though with her tall figure and blonde
coloring, she looks more like an English
one Certainly for some time no set of
debutantes has been made up of more
different types, and they will add to So
ciety that variety, which is said to be
the spice of life.
Next to our own doings. there is moth
ing more interesting to US than the move
ments of our friends, after that those of
our friends friends, and so on, as the
circle widens. until we may be said to
take an interest in the actions of mere
acquaintance. After all. it has been tru-
ly said that there is nothing in the world
so engrossing as people, whether they be
dwelling in Europe, Asia or Africa, or
in the various streets of our own city.
There seems to be an unsual amount of
m ovement this year. and so many people
have changed their quarters that it re-
minds one of the old game of going to
