DINNERS ARE POPULAR

1t has been an eventful week and the
early part Of 1t a busy one. 1t has wit
messed the beginning of the Lenten season
and has provided enough gossip to enliven
a much duller period than the next four
or five weeks are likely to afford. The
dancing season is over with the Assembly,
which In every way was one of the largest
and gayest balls of the winter. But the
dining season is on with a new motive
yesterday by the recurrence Of st. Nalen-
tine day-just as if it needed any. Many
Of the largest and most important dinners
each winter are kept for Lent because or
the leisure which the time suggests.
The winter has so deepened the hold of
bridge whist on the card-lOVlng contingent
that it is doubtful that 'ping-pong' or
anything else can disturb it before more
genial weather excites a desire for out
door enjoyments. But that both lntellec-
tual tastes as well as occasions when eyes
and ears may revel are to be catered TO-
as in the old days under the great enVei-
oping cloak of charity, are ev1nced by the
next weeks program. Monday night the
Junior Republic will be the beneficiary and
society matrons and maids the performers
at what promises to be the greatest event
in amateur theatrcals that the capital
has ever known.
