\ KNOW that Dorothy Hebert's
friends here will be interested in
knowing that she is to make her
debut this winter in New Orleans,
where her parents now live. While
they lived in Atlanta the Heberts
were very popular socially, and al
though Dorothy was a schoolgirl,
she had a wide circle Of friends.
During her three years residence
in New Orleans the pretty schoolgirl
has grown into a very charming
young woman, with all the winsome
beauty of her French ancestry. Mr..
and Mrs. Hebert viii give a large
supper party for their daughter, fol-
lowing the opening performance of
French opera in New Orleans on No
vember IS. Then again. on November
25 and on December IS, they give
two brilliant dinner parties for the
bud.
Mrs. Hebert and Dorothy have been
spending the summer at Lake Placid
in New York later visiting in Wash
ington, where they met several At
lanta friends It is probable that Miss
Dorothy will visit friends here after
the holidays.
Z INCE a Birmingham man who
was in the city week before last
taunted me with the fact that
Atlanta girls were behind those of
his town in taking up the monocle
fad, I've been looking for some one
wearing a monocle. My search has
been rewarded by sight of one of
the prettiest girls in Atlanta wearing
a monocle with all the grace and
nonchalance Of an Austrian army Of
ticer.
This Is Mignon McCarty, whose fair
beauty well becomes the black rib
boned toy, which can be used with
such bewitching effect. Mignon's
monocle is attached to a narrow MORE
ribbon, the Slide made of thin gold
letters entwined in the monogram of
the wearer.
Soon after l caught a glimpse of
this first monocle. saw Harriet
Broyles disporting one. She bought
hers just before leaving for Washing
ton, where the fad has become an
ribbon bears a beautiful "slide"-a
pale pink cameo. The monocle is a
very charming fad, and can be used
with pretty much the same effect that
is vastly becoming. too--the black
ribbon gives a chic air to the frills
and rufiies that finish the neck of the
modlsh gowns, and makes a white
throat all the winter
The monocle fad began in the East
and has spread out West and South
with rapidity

the pleasure of seeing all the pref

son, who is to be married instead Of
making debut, but the other young
shopper, Margaret Grant. will wear
her lovely gowns at the brilliant Sc

given for her this winter, and for
the other buds.
