The SOCIAL SEASON
Aside From the Regular, Annual
Events, the Calendar Prom
ises Little as Yet.
There Appears to Be Dearth Of
Debutantes Although Next
Season Promises Well.

Minneapolis people are growing decided
ly migra tory in their habits and a month
In California or Florida has come to be
q regular feature of the winter. Already
the hitting has commenced and shopping,
visiting and sightseeing, have attracted
many people ca st and west If MnneapO-
lis has a social season. which many peo-
pie begin to doubt, it is found in the Few
weeks that lie between the first Friday In
November. when the charity ball takes
place. and the first Of the year 1t is
then that the few large balls are given
and the women have an opportunity TO
year their handsOmest gowns.
The outlook for the season seems rather
untntereStinG at present. but few plans are
ever made until after the charity ball.
Most of the society women are Interested
fl the Home for Aged Women and Chill
dren, and they give precedence to the ball
which is to raise funds for it's benefit.
Last year the party was abandoned on
account of the death ofeJo ohm S. Pillsbury.
but this year it will take it's regular posi-
tion as the opening function Of the year
and will be given in the West Hotel Fri
day evening. Nov. I.
The 1lostesses ball will take place as
usual the third Friday in November.
which this year falls on the list. This is
the brilliant affair Of the season and the
Introduction Of the debutantes is q pretty
feature. There will be number Of
changes in the list of fifty hostesses, RS so
many of the women. who gra CiOusly re-
Ceived last year, are in mourning and
others will be out Of the city.
Nothing definite has been decided in re-
gard to the assembly parties and 1t is
possible that they will be abandoned for
the year. They were among the most
charming of airs for two years and
closely rivaled the HOstesses ball in bril-
lianCy and beauty Of appointments.
The members of the Cotillion club will
hold a meeting in a few weeks to make
plans for the three parties which 1t gives
annually. Two Of them will take place
before Christmas and one early in the
year
The Dramatic club will give Its first en-
tertanment in December. Mrs. S. g..
Tooker and George Willard will have
charge of the rehenrsals and the program
for the first affair will include two one
act plays.
Many Of the affairs Of December will
center around the Bell-IIeffe efinger we'd
ding. which will be a brilliant function Of
the month. Miss Heffelfinger and Mr.. Bell
are very popular in the younger set and as
they have also large family connections.
q regular series Of dinners, teas and
luncheons may be looked for. Mrs. F. B.
