The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-09-27

The past week has been busy one
for society, but not SO much because
there has been a great deal going on
as because so many of the younger
girls are going away to school and
there has been much getting ready 10
do, as well as settling town houses and
preparing for the winter campaign.
The women of st. Paul who attend TO
their dressmaking at this time OF year
and devote this month to shopping are
beginning to realize that st. Paul is
becoming large and metropolis, If for
no other reason than that it is so diff
cult to find any one to sew for you, or
tailors to work for you. 1t Is really
becoming a struggle to have things
made; a winters wardrobe means
much hard work and not little
thought. In fact, life in ST Paul is be-
coming as complicated as in larger
cities, and the woman who can bring
up a family, manage a large household
and attend to social duties as well is
not likely to escape nervous prostra-
ton.
There will not be very much Of i'm
portance going on until the autumn
weddings begin; after those interesting
events are over, the social season can
fairly be said to be started and gayety
will continue until Lent comes in. The
Christmas holidays are given over to
the younger set, and as there are more
we'll known girls and boys away at
school this year than ever before, the
holidays are likely to be crowded with
dances and germans. And, by the way,
some of these girls who are coming out
In year or two are real beauties, and
likely to become great bellies.
