EXPECT DULL WINTER
 IN LONDON SOCIETY

London, October S.-(Special)-ln the social world of London this winter, things are likely to be rather dull, for, with the King and Queen and their entourage at the Indian Dunbar and a proper mgra- ton to Delhi of the members of the "Upper Ten,' who are anxious to partici- pate in the festivities and witness the in teresting ceremony, there will be very few society people left to do much enter taining. Although the winter season is not particularly busy for court or trades people, the real hustle occurring in May, June and July. the flight of society from London will be felt for the next few months.
 Those in the catering trade are likely to be most effected with business depres- sion, but while caterers are complaining dressmakers are doing a record trade. Some of the dresses which are being taken to India will more than satisfy the natives whose eyes are always attracted towards bright and bizarre coIors.
 The spirit of the east seems to have permeated the dressmaSing establishment patronized by society in London, for some of the gowns evolved by the modisrsl nay fleets, Of blue. gauzy material, eni- broidered in conflicting colors, with skunk trimmings and a buff ornament at the waist approXimating to a section of ban dolero, a dress bought from the wardrobe

There is a syndicate of tenants to pro- tect the small tenant from the oppression of usurious landlords, or as is more ire quent of usurious landladies. To strength en this syndicate there is the Society of the Wooden Bell, which is the militant cr- ganization of the syndicate. This society undertakes the task of removing the fur niture of poor tenants when they are elected for having more than one child. or even for having any children. In the case where the poor tenant cannot pay the rent the society takes away the furni- ture, in spite of the refusal of the land lady to allow is to be removed before the money is paid. The members of the so- cety are new and welcome type of bailiff.
