The social holiday season has been most re-
markably dull thus far. Whether the frequency
of strikes or the bewlderng business changes
OF this region are responsible for the phenomenal
quetude is uncertain, but there is no mistakng
tIe IacL tiaI Hucn dpalnS cNlstS. VI CouIsc tlc
center Of interest lies in the New Year ball, for
which such elaborate preparations arc being
made Ii is to he undoubtedly the most Gle
giant event ever planned in the city aside from
the famed Bachelors and the masquerade bill
given by Mr.. and Mrs. Z. l.. Fuller last spring.
The list of invitations has of necessity been
greatly reduced because OF the limited space.
but the beauty OF appointments and tastidious
taste heretofore evident will be equally shown
on this occasion.
The Cornell Gee club concert and dance is alb
sorbing the attention of most OF the younger set.
The fact that it will take place tomorrow night
will necessitate crowdng great deal oi fun into
a short space OF time and every effort OF the
committees are being bent upon making it the
most brilliant event oi all the scc-club affairs
in the history OF this town. II had been intended
to have Il tea tomorrow afternoon at the Cnrn-
try club, but that most leii yh:' II cert in prs
pccl seems largely contingent upon the vagasies
of street cars and their powers -that-be. II the
dear, kind motormen and conductors would cnly
relcnt long enough TO run i,V rlis h"'vs,n
here and the club IRON four To SIX tomorrow at
tcrnoon large number of pretty ri'!s ~ this
vicinity would probably devote considerable in
genuly to the problem oi settling the t'.kc,
but to attempt a tea with no 'ars Is rather too
extensive contract.
Monday night beautiful subscription dance
will be given AT the Bicycle club house by
number Of society young people 1t will be an
elaborate affair under the direction Of COM
mittee OF which Mr.. Isaac Hasam is chairman.
