Married Thirty-6ve Years.

Mr.. and Mrs. II. w. Lawton celebrated
Wednesday evening. from to II, their
thirty fifth wedding anniversary. Mr..
and Mrs. Lawton and their two daugh-
ters, Misses Jennie and Mary. and their
son Herbert received the guests. After
refreshments at their home the, guests
repaired to the Riverdale Hall. where
dancing of an informal nature was in
dulSed in for some time. The appear
ance of the bride and groom at the
hall was the cause of an outburst of
enthusiasm and jovialty. which carried
their minds back, no doubt, 10 the orig
inal wedding day of thirty-five years
ago. Dr. Mcmillan was there and Off
ciated in, his usual jovial manner as
''parson,' and remarked the couple in
quaint old Dutch style.
Many valuable presents were received.

Picked Up Here and There

The week Just passed, in Chicago, was
less frenzied and strenuous socially
than the ones which preceded it. but
there was no tagging of interest in the
gayeties. which were numerous and
interesting, says the Chicago Herald.
There were number of charming par
ties, including the supper-dance when
the Misses Eli:tabe and Mildred Nc
Cormick gave in the crystal ballroom
Of the Blackstone Hotel, Wednesday
evening. and the following night the
Caycst and most festive party of the
winter. the Butchers and Bakers
dance. took place at the Germania
club.
,shat the Spanish ball lacked in aban-
don and gayety and the spirit 'of carn1-
val was more than made up for at the
Butchers and Bakers frolic. There was
less formalty. which added somewhat
10 the evenings enjoyment, and there
absolutely no responsibility Tor
any one. apparently, except Billy
Gamble, who planned the first party
and has since taken charge of all the
Twelfth Night stunts" that the Butch
ers and Bakers have given. The place
of tn dance was, as usual, secret 10
all but the twelve knights from whom
the invitations came. and was not re-
vtaled to the guests until the night OF
the party. Every one who participated
was either host guest at some
dinner party. and at the hour of { host
esses received the name of the meeting
place over the phone, and from 10 to
II the merry company of masked
dancers wendell their way up the stairs
of the clubhouse into the big dance
hall, where the Christmas decorations
still hung, in addition to many varied
colored balloons floating about. while
an orchestra of strings and drums and
an odd piano-accordion combination
played all the ''ragg1est' dance steps
until we'll on toward morning.
1t was the most attractive as well as
the gayest dance of the season. In adj
dition to some freak dances one of the
stunts" arranged by Mr.. Gamble was
a travesty on the ku-Kluy Khan scene
in The Birth of a Nation" in which
several of the guests did a burlesque
in Ku-klux costumes astride hobby
horses.
One of the interesting dinner parties
preceding the event was given by Mar
tyn johnson and Willard .kjtehel- ut
their rooms, los East Walton place.
When dinner was announced each
guest found lighted candle and spriE
of mstletoe upon the mantle. which
was carried into the dining room, the
candle to light the way because the
room was in darkness and the mistletoe
to be burned in the CRATE fire. accord
ing to the twelfth night custom in
England. Mr.. Johnson has lived in
many lands and has brought many in
teresting souvenirs of his travels back

far as America is concerned. has ap-
parently been to lead to great extrava-
gance in Dress. for. as one woman who
goes out constantly. says, with the
number of entertainments she has to
attend there is absolutely no limit to
the number of gowns that are absolutely
essential Ten, twenty and thirty din
ner and ball gowns are not considered at
all too many. even when one is not going
out everywhere. SO it can readily be un-
derstood That If one is going everywhere
the dress allowance must be a large one.
And now the skating craze means an ad-
ditional expenditure in gowns, but then
all this money is now spent in America
instead Of Europe, so it is positively
patriotic to be exceedingly extravagant.

tours prominent in society are to take

is to prevent them from coming late;
The system of fines is to be patterned
after the taXicab system of reg1stra-

pay so cents for. the first fifteen MN

Some one has suggested that a social

hostesses to secure considera BILE money
