Contrary to all precedent, that is, within
the last few years, since the winter holi-
days have been so largely monopollzed by
the college people. It was the married
folks and society generally that dominated
the Thanksgiving week doings instead Of
the Junior members Of the family. who
were privileged to come home from school
for a few days. The week was replete
with affairs Of more than ordinary pre-
tentiousness and the holiday spirit seemed
to be generally abroad. 1t was. in fact,
in keeping with the scale that society
seems to have adopted this fall, and that
1t Is to be hoped It will retain. '"-
OF course, everybody attended the foot
ball game on Thursday afternoon-except-
ing those who went down to see the Lin
coin game-and that evening there were
supper parties Of a more or less formal
character in scores OF homes, composed OF
the remnants of the afternoon crowds. -
This naturally determined the evening.
especially az there was nothing on of espe-
cial consequence.

The cotIllion at the Country club on
Wednesday evening was perhaps the most
talked-of AFFAIR OF the week, and such a
hit did IL make with the fashionables that
its frequent repetition is promised. The
club house, aside from its location. sffords
a most inviting place for gatherings of this
kind, and now that the season has come
when there is no excuse for members going
out there, except upon invitation, those
who would do things little out OF the
ordinary are looking to the Country club
as the most satisfactory place hereabout
for giving things.

me Lay Of the Lobster.

Albert Lee IN Smart Set.
The lobster Is a kind Of bird
Concerning which you may have heard.
He dwells beneath the sea;
He has a tail. but has no wings;
| don't think that he ever Sings,
But crawls most gracefully.
Now, once a lobster, young and green.
VINO d never seen soup tureen,
Came scrambling through the surf;
a maiden, who was standing there,
Picked up that foolish young lobstair,
And took him on the turf.
The maiden to the lobster said,
I'll take you out and paint you red,
Ill give you a hot timew
The lobster thought this would be great
And did not realize till late
His Ignorance sublime.
The lobster said II would be fine
To have some supper and some wine;
He thought he was a rounder.
The maid, though, knew her little trick:
She got him in hot water quick,
And left him there to founder.
She ripped the lobster up the back.
And gave his skull lusty crack,
Then roasted him quite we'll
And when she d got all that there was
To get out OF that lobster's claws,
She threw away the shell.
I'm sure that no one well can fail
To grasp the moral of this tale
It's very plain to see.
A lobster Is a lobster now,
He is lobster anyhow,
And will forever be.
