vort season which the debutante looks
,o-ward 70 with more interest than all
the others one is her formal presenta-
tion 10 society at reception, the dansant
or dance; the second, the initial Junior
Cotllon Of the season. and the third. the
annual entertainment Of the Junior
League, given by the buds OF the season.
Tho Junior Cotillon will have its first
,,eeting this season on Tuesday, at
sberry's. as usual, and most of the girls
wbo make their debut this season Will

MAR Of any Of the dancing classes, and
ss there is a long waiting list some OF
the girls are unable TO become members.
The former members of the class, those
of this year and the girls who are not
vet out. will learn with regret, however,
that Mrs. Arthur Murray Dodge, who
has so ably managed this series of dances
for the last eighteen years. announces
that this is her last season and that she
will retire at the end of the winter Her
withdrawal will be regretted by every
one in any way connected with the
juniors. for il is TO her efforts more than
10 any one else that the class has been
such a success.
"a The Junior Cotillon. which has been one
OF the most exclusive and popular OF the
dancing organizations for young girls
will cease to exist under that name at
the end Of this season. The class VIII
he reorcanized on the same lines, and
will be known as the Junior Assemblies.
The reason fo~ this change is that the
,otillon is no longer in favor, both the
DID and the young preferrinS the new
steps to the figure dances Of other years.
Last winter the cotillon was abandoned
entirely. and this year it stands in no
higher regard, for every one prefers the
One-step, the Boston, the tango, tine tuI-
key trot. etc, in a modified form.
