Ry comparison with last year at this
time weddings in the country are few
or in prospect; at the same time there
oil be several Of interest. Miss Kath-
srine Lanier Lawrance and w. Averell
Hartman will be married in Trinity
church, Lenox, on Tuesday. but the
veddlng ceremony will be one of the
simplest on record. az lone but imme-

such an easy matter TO select dates
,ha, will not clash with other plans.
Most of the dates already mentioned
for private dances are tentative and
very much subject to change.
While New York society is contin-
ually growing, IT is not altogether
feasible TO have two dances, or even
more, on the same night. as with the
ARRANGEMENTS carried out as they are
here neither dance Is likely to be a
great success. There is no intention
~ changing the manner of formal in
I. PRODUCTION. the afternoon reception yet
being considered the best method of
including all friends OF the family.
The afternoon reception with dancing
is sure 10 be as successful as for two
seasons past, and those who have not
houses spacious enough will go TO
Sherry's. the Plaza, Ritz. St. Regis or
Bltmore. where there are fine ball
rooms. or to the new Colony Club,
where already several entertainments
for debutantes have been booked.
