welcome tomorrow for there are
L. not more than >paltry half
dozen affairs on the social calendar. 1t
Is not SO many years since the list OF
New Year celebrations seemed an end
less one, for everybody planned to en-
terrain on that day if at no other time
during the season, but times have
changed and little 1905 will slip in with
out any great blare OF trumpets. For
tunately Mrs. George H. Partridge
changed the date of her holiday dance
from Tuesday until New Years night
and relieved the evening Of some of its
dul1ness- The Quill club, the new Or
ganization Of college boys, will give its
i cotilion the same evening. Messrs and
Mines. 81. E. Partridge, +. B. Snyder,
j. T. Wyman, G. NJ. Piper, W. G. Shull,
P. T.. Howe, s. Fl. Bowman, E. Under
wood and J. r. Dodge will chaperone
the young people.
The Minikahda club will be the great
xallytng place during the day for win
ter sports are proving wonderfully at
tractive to the young people and there
Is nowhere such facilities for skating,
= tobogganing and hockey as at the club.
There will be music afternoon and
evening, the wassai bowl will be filled
80 that New Year toasts may be drunk
and from until 5 clock some Of the
young matrons will preside at the pref
tily appointed tea table. There will be
no formal table d'hote luncheons or
dinners, but doubtless there will be
number Of dinner parties given just
the same for people have learned how
much easier and pleasanter it is to en-
terrain at the club than at their own
homes.
The Delta Gamma sorority has de-
cided not to receive tomorrow and now
none of the sororities will follow the
old custom of keeping open house on
New Years day.
