The Saint Paul globe., 1905-04-23

nT is useless to deny that it is no
longer fashionable or faddish to re-
gard Lent The disregard of the
season this year has been noticeable
everywhere, in st. Paul and more es-
pecially in New York. Formerly even
those who did not observe the pene-
tential season were not in the habit of
marrying or entertaining largely in
Lent, but this year many of the most
fashionable weddings of the winter
IN New York have been cele
brated during the last month. Even
holy week has not been a time
of special quiet in st. Paul, and
there have been many informal affairs
and small gayeties. For the next two
weeks the weddings and entertaining
for the brides to be will make the days
full ones for society.
