TUESDAY-Public schools open
WEDNESDAY-Dinner and dance at the
clubs.
SATURDAY-Dinner and dance at; the
clubs.
Already people are beginning to come
from the resorts and the country places
The comparative GOODNESS of the weather
may be noticed in the changed character
of the affairs. Already formal dinners are
being given, dancing parties are being dis
cussed and bridge" promises to soon
take Its place as chief Of amusements,
while outings are beginning to be rele-
gated to the background. Speaking OF
bridge, the potency of which never lessons,
promises to hold It's popular place this year,
But society has taken a very different
attitude toward the game from when II
was first introduced. They can no longer
be accused of playing a kindergarten
game They have studied It seriously and
have found 1t really worth while Some
have accused society of becoming cranks
on the subject. 1t is not that. But 1t Is
annoying to attempt to play by rule and
play as the game should be played to have
some less serious-minded person refuse to
return your lead, overlook 1t entirely, re-
mark that they forgot to discard, or more
exasperating still, have them discuss the
fit or more likely misfit of some PERSONS
gown. or ridicule the latest do Of some
persons hair. Now. this is inexcusable
and is deserving of a good rebuke. 1t is
generally known now that society is play
ing a serious, we'll studied game. and II
person does not care to take this attitude
they should refuse an invitation to play
with the better players, as II spells an
evening for them and should embarrass and
humliate the poor player as well. So study
the game and play as well as any of them
or give up the game entirely. Don't make
yourself a bore to society.
This week and next will see the departure
of the majority of the college students.
