h the unusual number of fes-
tivities which filled the earlier
part OF the month with train
of bridal memories and scat
tered roses OF June. Numerous affairs
of charmingly informal nature have
taken place but they have been so in
formal" as to be forbidden entrance to
the society columns by the entertain
ing hostesses. A few formal affairs
complimenting the strangers within
the gates" have been given and prom
ises of some pleasant happenings next
week have blossomed into plans.
Europe and the Orient with their
mingled pleasures and wealth OF his"
tory and art treasures have formed the
themes of conversation over the cups
at several of the parties of the week
where some of the travellers have met
together. Europe claims few OF our
people each year Just now the Richard
Johnsons have the wander-lust and
are at the johnson villa on Lake Con-
stance. the home of Mr.. Johnson's
mother, after an ocean coyage of
comparative safety and calm. They
will return late in the summer. Pic
mics have been in vogue during the
week, Notwithstanding the rainy
weather during a part of the time, and
a number OF merry motor parties have
enjoyed delightful outings up the Idaho
City road and on other routes. the re-
cent rains having laid the dust and
freshened the wild flowers.
