OAKLAND SOCIETY
GREET5 THE YOUNGS

A social gOSSipper In the Oakano
Tribune has the following of local In
terest:
The event of the week socially was of
course the card party given by Bertha
and May Young on Thursday for their
new sister-in-law. Mrs. Archibald
Young, who was Maude Gillet of De-
troit She met and was married to
Archibald at Honolulu While visiting
her aunt and uncle there. We all went
up to the Rose-Crest with a little sense
of anticipation along with us, for how
ever much we like one another, you
can't deny there is sense of sameness
about most of our affairs, always the
same faces. lots of times the same
gowns TO look at. and usually the same
arrangements all around. but at the
Youngs one can expect something just
little different, even if we were not
all so fond of them and their pretty,
unaffected ways. their gowns alone
would be worth going miles TO see; al
though, of course, none of US think
about winning the prizes, still they al
ways give such lovely ones. know If
by wonderful luck l should ever cap
ture one, I'd run all the way home to
in the language of the classicS-spring
it on the family. who would drop dead
with surprise. because I've never even
won BOBBY prize. But on Thursday we
saw a new face. in fact two, because
Mrs. Thomas Johnson of New London,
Conn, who is stopping with Mrs. Lou
Allender, was there. While not exactly
pretty. the young bride, with her
charming reddish brown hair and
brown eyes, her sweet manner and
bright and lively disposition, is very It
tractiVe, and looked very well indeed,
in one of her new gowns, very pale
blue dotted chiffon made over blue silk
and trimmed with lace. The I.ostesses
looked well, too. Bertha was goWned
in white organdie. trimmed beautifully
with black Chantilly lace, and May in
dainty and very Frenchy combina-
ton of green pima cloth. trimmed with
a sort OF pink embroidery and green
chiffon. The beautiful apartments-one
hates to call them mere rooms-at Rose
Crest, were not deliberately decorated;
the whole affair was gotten up in a
hurry, but in any case. further decora-
ton isn't at all needed there, you know
dislike elaborate decoration where one
has beautiful furnishings, and one can
look from the windows and see Quanti-
ties and quantities of beautiful flowers
and greens in their proper places
There were just enough cut flowers
ptdCSO ABOUT IN DOWlS and vases TO
make things look feminine and home
like. The tally cards were two white
hearts together. pierced through with
an arrow, small red hearts adjoining the
larger ones, red ribbons, to which were
attached bells, being tied at the top
