Society Folk Keep "Open
House" Old Time Way

The old time custom of New
Years celebrations was renewed
again yesterday afternoon. when
many of the Spokane society mat
rons kept what we call open
house" There is nothing which is
enjoyed so much as the informal
New Years calls and there is moth
ing which pleases a hostess so
much as the JOY of extending her
hospitality to her many friends and
acquaintance on such an occasion.
While many of the homes were
open to all callers, others who felt
that they wished to entertain in a
smaller way issued invitations for
their hours at home.
AS on former occasions, Mrs. NJ
B. Brownlee received informally at
her home on Eighth avenue Mrs.
Brownlee was assisted in receiving
by her daughter. Miss Edith, and
a large circle of friends of the
Brownlee family called during the
day and exchanged. their New
Years greetings.
The celebration of New Years
day was carried out in a charming
manner at the Labaree residence
ON South street, when Mrs. o. G..
Labaree and her daughter, Miss
Gladys. received informally.
The Hay residence was the scene
Of another joyous gathering when
many friends of Mrs. M, e. Hay,
called to drink tea and enjoy a So
cial chat.
Mrs J. c. Ralston also received a
few friends informally at her home
on Mission avenue, MANY. friends
called sand enjoyed the social hours
at her fireside.
Another charming celebration of
the day was observed by the men,

4 days, and it doesn't deal with

of the Old Year

Another pretty affair was added
to this weeks social calendar last
evening when Mr.. and Mrs. w. H.

friends at their home in the Har-

celebration of the twentieth we'd

hostess.
The rooms of the apartment
were attractively decorated with
holly, ferns and other favors of
the holiday season, while boquets
of cut flowers were used to bright
en- the tables from which the de-
lightful luncheon was served.
The evening was spent with a
genuine New Years celebration,
the guests lingering until the New

This is all very wise philosophy

This is a question which

Some people, in all seriousness,
will advise girls to marry even at
the early age of Is years, as they
claim they are more easily suited
and are not always comparing
their husbands to their former
sweethearts. They also claim
they are more unselfish and more
willing to fight against the finan-
