Arizona republican., 1912-12-22

What promised to be a gay week gradually took the proportions of very busy one, indeed. during the past few days no attempt was made to entertain save with informal luncheon or dinner Christmas claims were apparent The shops were crowded with we'll known maids and matrons intent upon the selection of some suitable novelty for an attrac- tive gift The program will be re- peated tomorrow and Tuesday and then the season will begin in real earnest Christmas dinners will not be quite such family affairs" the guest list in many instances being unusually large. One of the most charming events planned for the day will be given at 'ESperanza' the country place of MT. and Mrs. Herbert Atha. who will have coterie of homeless ones" over for tennis to be followed by a delightful dinner. Mir and Mrs. J. w Doris will be among the dinner hosts; their affairs, like those of the Athas, are always eagerly anticipated.
 While the society women have been occupied with holiday festivities the men have arranged several smart functions.
 Hugh Marshall will entertain with a dinner dance at the Country club Thursday evening.
 The Bachelors will give their stag dinner Friday at the Country club and it is being whispered that only a few members of the club have been taken into the confidence of those who are arranging the details. There will be many surprises, and clever ones, since many of the suggestions have come from the president, Power Conway who was largely responsible for the brilliant success of the Bach elor ball of last week. Maitland Davies is to sing and others who will give specialties during the eve ming are Frank Connolly, c. J. Mo Elroy and A. R. Cater.
 Everybody has reserved tables for the caberet supper at the Country club Saturday evening. Indications point toward tie jOiliect event of Christmas week.

Homer King, George Morse, Tom Trent, Charles McArthur and A R. Cater to take part. The stunts" will all be new and the many original ones will be a still greater attraction.

So ciety is greatly interested in the or ganization and is looking forward to the event an interesting feature of which will be the first public appearance of Miss Alice Rede- will, who will be the solo ist.
