4 oHARMrNa SOCIAL EyENr.

Watertown Witnessed, last Friday even
ing, for the first time, In large and pub
lie hall, the entrance OF young iBdS in
to society, when Miss Vera Skinner made
her debut. The event has been the gspwn
talk, and society has looked with r1uch
enjoyment, mingled with curiosity, to-
ward the coming event. This was partly
because nothing OF this kind had ever oc-
Cured here on so well an adapted plan.
Generally when q young lady his 3:.as..ss. che
ed the age to be introduced into society
the event takes place In her home, or the
home of near relative, and the invita-
tions are more or less limited, but here it
was different. Mr. and Mrs Skinner had
the goud taste to invite not only the
strict SOCIAL d society people, but num-
Der OF others who do not belong TO the
favored 400. The whole affair from be-
ginning to end was q charming one ;
there was nothing lacking, and Rll passed
off quietly and pleasantly as one could
WISH AS the guests arrived, one after
another was introduced to Mrs skinner,
Miss Skinner (aunt OF the debutante) the
debutante, and number OF her most in
innate friends and echoolmatea, who all
formed mcst charming group. Con-
CALCULATIONS we're rendered. This con.
tinued until after 10 O'Clock, when the
room In the court hail, where small tables
each accommodating four persons, had
been placed, all handsomely and taste
fully arranged. There were plenty of
walters, and g more charming picture
than was presented here could hardly be
Imagined. Nothing was lacking In taste
or style, and the usual formality So char
acteristic OF such events was entirely alb
sent. All Ihatted gaiIy at their different
places, and all enjoyed themselves heart
ly. Over 100 were present, enjoying the
hospitality OF Mr. aud Mrs Skinner. On
the stage IN che Enain hal handsome pot
ted flowers were tastefully arranged and
pinks and roses were In abundance for
those who wanted them to adOrn gheir

members so often criticised. "There

asked how many sinners would

an evidence that there are some
hypocrites beside church mem.

would stay in town if his past
record Of secret sins known only to
himself were exposed. The man
