The talk in local society and in fact,
in the social precincts of every city
at this season, is mostly of debuts and
debutantes. Here is a word of advice
from one who is watching the game
and thinks that the "downy f1edglings"
need advice ere they essay a social
flight She says: Yes, 'tis great and
yet even for a debutante the world
holds out pitfalls, and without some
careful steering an inexperienced girl
may we'll roughen the smoothness of
her materially macadamized social
course and land against a wall, as many
a flower has done. For instance, should
she have a preference for a certain
swain, the tendency of the debutante
will be to let him n1onopolize her.
That however, is fatal to what is COM
monty called a good time" For. you.
see, if a girl depends upon one man for
her pleasure when dams in the monde,
the others are prompt to take the hint
and it becomes bit awkward for her
when he is not around, you see. She,
then finds herself out of the others
reckoning, you know. In this connec-
ton 1 read somewhere the other day a
warning to debutantes that seemed to
be full of the wisdom of the serpent:
Always tear up your program at a
dance said the cynic- 1t saves the
memory - and your reputation for
truthfulness-
Tear up the program feeling no regret
And here's the reason: lest you don't forget.
In addition to other sound advice
which at various times / have given
I would add the cynic's: BE taken to
your chaperone between dances. It
would be a pity to compel her to climb
the back stair in search of you"
