The week has been quiet in society
Home coming and home going filled the
days with family parties to the exclu.
sion of any large entertaining.
The only social affair of Importance
was the opening dance of the Assembly
club Wednesday night, when armory
hall was gay with festive decorations
and merry dancers.
Portland claimed for Thursday many
Salem people who witnessed the Oregon
university and Multnomah football
game in the afternoon, and enjoyed
" Jappyland," the Oriental extrava-
ganza, given at the armory in the
evening.
Little and Russell, the artistic dec
orators transformed .Armory hall into
a place Of beauty last Wednesday night
with great baskets Of pink roses hang
ing from the balconies and resting on
pedestals, forest greens and vines, and
immense transparent pink globes filled
with electric lights. Concealed by an
arbor of vines and flowers, was the
punch bowl in one corner of the hall.
The assemblage was very large and
the many handsome dancing frocks were
conspicuous among the somber evening
dress.
The tango in all its fascinating glides
and halts was favorite dance, with
the hesitation waltz eagerly claiming
favored place.
In the tea room Of Hotel Marion,
lovely with roses and shaded lights,
Doctor and Mrs. Harry E. Clay cele.
