The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-11-21

The prediction long ago made tina
this season would be the gayest Sal
Lake society has experienced in som,
years, is being verified, and glanc,
forward indicates that the activity vii
increase as the season advances.
The week Just closed has been event
full enough to bring out nearly all O.
the society people at some of the var
led forms of entertainments-din
receptions, card parties, balls and thos,
smaller gatherings where the enjoy
ment is not less complete than at the
larger affairs.
There were several weddings Of spec
ial interest, among them those of Mis-:
Wayne Warde and Mr. Fred Noble Al
San Francisco on Wednesday,; Hiss
Alice Woodruff and Mr. William Nc.
Evan on Tuesday, and Miss Clare Ken
yon and Andrew NIacLean on Thurs.
day.
Mrs. George F. Downey's dinner il
honor of Mrs. j. A Pollock and Mrs
Landstreet. Mrs. Glendinning's caro-
party on Monday afternoon, and the
party given by Miss Macintosh il
honor OF Miss Bolinger We're notable
affairs and the ball given by the high
school at Christensen Friday evening
was the most brilliant of the season
thus far.
Besides these there were innumer-
able smaller affairs.
Interest now centers in the military
ball to be given on Nov. 80, for which
elaborate preparations are being made
and the charity ball early in Deem
Der. Between these, and extending or
throughout the season. there viii be a
succession of brilliant events, and the
revival of the cotillion win add con-
siderably to the general activity.
The coming week, though, viii be the
most notable of all the year in a social
way, because it brings with it Thanks
giving day-that day of days when
entertainment rules supreme every
where. Nothing equals the enjoyment
that comes from these Thanksgiving
gatherings, when the home circles are
closed up again and associations that
have been almost broken off during the
year are renewed. In a thousand homes
there viii be entertainments and hap
piness will be all pervading.
Thanksgiving dav, in a sense, is an
American institution. It is the day of
all the year which may be described
as the most universally observed by So
ciety in its widest application, a day
Of sociability and felicitation.
