with the opening Of the Country club
and the Field club last evening the sum
mer season received its social Inauguration
and summer customs were established.
It is unusual for the two clubs to
choose the same night for the formal din
ner-dance which is the seasons opening,
but apparently neither opening suffered
from the competition. At both clubs the
attendance was large.
The Field club, in accordance with its
established custom, provided the table
flowers and used these to emphasize a
definite color scheme. Baskets OF roses
formed centerpieces for all the tables At
the Country club the hosts selected the
table flowers and variety of summer bios
SONS was displayed.
Attention this week will be quite largely
directed toward the dance entertainment
which is to be given Saturday in benefit
OF the City Mission and the Child Saving
Institute This is true not only because
the dancers include many young people
prominent in society but because society
women are actively engaged promoting the
financial success Of the entertainment.
The board of directors Of the Child Saw.
ing Institute, which was but recently In.
cluded in the benefit, is composed Of a
number Of energetic women who have
way OF making a great success OF overy-
thing they undertake. With this energy
bent toward fostering the ticket-selling for
the entertainment there is assurance that
