THE SOCIAL WORLD
Next Week Has Some Pleasant Events
on Program,
BUT IT WILL NOT Be LIVELY
The Most Interest Attaches to
the Weddings.
P E r 8 o n AL N o T z

The luli which usually precedes holiday
season or some great attraction elsewhere
will be the portion Of the capital during
the coming week. The horse show in New
York still manages to hold its own in i'm
portance as a social event, or, in fact
series of events. and will this year, as usual,
mark the beginning of the winters gaye-
ties. Many Washingtonians are bound to
be in evidence there, even for only short
visits, with the comfortable assurance that
nothing especially exciting is happening at
home during their absence. Beyond the
weddings, of which there are to be several
with many interesting details. notably the
Regain -Yznaga of Thursday, there are few
formal events ahead for the week, not hut
what the affairs gotten up on short notice
are not every day sufficiently numerous and
engrossing. Thanksgiving week Is bit
more lively in anticipation, especially In
the line of weddings. The dinners begin
in real earnest with December. and for at
least four months will rate first In all mat
ters of moment The debutantes seem
fairer and prettier than ever this fall, and
are already enjoying the delights OF belle
ship, as well as getting acquainted with
each other, at the many delightful enter
tainments which thoughtful mothers are
planning. The reorganization of the small
and early dances which will be given as
| usual at Rauscher's shows the strong held
these charming events have acquired in the
winters program, and with the siXty-couple
cottllion, make sure two delightful evenings
for Christmas week Debutantes will be
the happiest of mortals at both of these
as we'll as at the half dozen other private
balls arranged for the holiday .ieason.
