cerned with luncheons. dinners, show I
ers, etc. that focus bright splash of |
light and color. Many of the brides
this season, however, have not been
accepting invitations to parties be-
fore their marriage, and so society
looks to the regular forms of diver !
sion that hold to the same old pace
regardless of whether romance -four
lshes or not, or whether or not the
young are married and given in mar
riage.
