TM EAR BECKY: The Christmas II y spirit is already in the air, tue
 stores are full of shoppers and tho calendar for the holidays will soon bs brimful with events planned for the 6ebutantes and the students home from school. Rumor has it that wedding bells will ring before the year is very old. Be- ginning with this week, each day untl after New Years hold one or more pleas ures and also an interesting wedding or two. Teas, dances and luncheons are the most popular form of entertainment with now and then 9 bridge tea or theatre party Prospective brides are not con tent with dances for the college set and are seeking dates for morning and afternoon affairs for the maids home for Christmas. The good old-fashion custom of receiving on New Year is being re- vived, and hear that several homes will be open on that day and one or two may end in dance.
 Speaking of Christmas l hear that mis- tletoe must go; that it is a destructive pest and must no longer flourish. Alas, for romance and the ime-honored cus- tom of the mistletoe bough, the lovely white berried branches are doomed.
