SOCIETY

Wednesday ushered in the Lenten
season and there has been a distinct
lull in Pendleton social activities. So
ciety matron and society maid have
each given up some part OF their
life OF gayety and for the next forty
days will hold themselves resolutely
to q course of self-denial. The larger
receptions and entertainments will be
strictly tabooed and many of the card
clubs have ceased their activity until
the season of penance Is over. Such
social gatherings as are held will be
quiet and without any ostentation and
will not interrupt the sober trend of
Lenten life.
