THE SOCIAL SIDE

Miss Hattie Laura Jodon. who has visited Montgomery as the guest Of her cousins,- Mir. and Mrs. W. J. Cham bers. is travelling abroad as stan cor respondent for The Pasadena Daily News. Her letters are charmingly in- teresting and instructive. In her let ter from Carlsbad, she quotes the fol- lowing extract from The Carlsbad Herald:
 'srhe dancing reunions at the Kur- haus, which take place every Saturday at s o'clock and last until midnight, are well frequented and the Ameri- cans always come to these dances in great number The stylish American ladies are most elegant dancers and their presence lends an interesting foreign atmosphere to these reunions. Buy in saying so, we do not mean that the ladies of other countries do not also shine by their personal beauty, their exquisite dresses and their gracefnlness. Nevertheless there Is something agreeable about American men and women which pleases.
 "They are so very different than we Europeans. Their whole manner Is go graceful and free, free from every social stiffness, and yet they observe good etiquette, chivalry and good manners probably more than Europeans do. For instance, to watch Americans dance valse Is quite treat with graceful movements they seem to slide along peacefully and the various movements they execute seem to make dancing a real joy without fatigue.
 .sThe uninterrupted turning round and round of the European valse is far less graceful and undoubtedly more fatiguing. At our dancing reunions much show is made of fine dresses and Jewelry, and the air that surrounds all the pretty women. young girls and gen. tlemen in traditional full dress is dis tinguished and exclusive, although everybody may join these dances"
 Miss Jodon says:
 '.They say that 43.OoO guests have registered here so far this season and they are arriving at the rate of from 500 to 1000 a day It is expected that there win be a meeting of three of the greatest monarchs of Europe at Carlsbad in August, when King Ed ward of England comes to take the cure as usual at Marienbad, a short distance from here.
 Tt is thought that Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria will come here to greet him and that Emperor William of Germany will also come. The meet ing of the monarchs will probably be at Schlakenwerth, about thirty minutes by rail from Carlsbad at castle own ed Dy the GTGuu 4(uAc W of Tuscany.
 Tt is thought very likely that the three Emperors will visit Carlsbad, and the people of this little city are greatly anticipating the pleasure of entertaining such exalted visitors"
