dozens Of Albuquerque's highest So
cial figures are going to attend TINS
ceremonial, or the attendant eelebra-
ton, and il that does not make it a
social affair. and an albuquerque one,
too, ia like to know what does,
Plenty OF Shriners are planning on
taking their wives with them to the
ceremonial and If the ladies have TO
put up with camping out in the cot
tages at the damsite, what OF II!
They go to the Pecos and do IT,
think they all are going to nave
perfectly lovely time, and something
tells me that the men, the Shrlnefs'
thut IL, are going to have lot more
fun than that.
That dear DR.. Chamberlin showed
me a perfectly horrid book, full or
the awfulest pictures Of what the no
bes do to unsuspecting novices ana
declared UP and down they were plan
ming eve worse things than that for
the class to be initiated at Elephant
Butte. OF course, he swore me TO
secrecy but ! can say this much: II
any of those novices lives to tell the
tale il will be a sure sign that he has
an extraordinary. durable constitution.

Nearly everybody has read Q. Hen
RVS story, "Calloway's Code" but |
1 think It takes newspaper worker TO
appreciate it, The continued use of
certain words in certain connections
grows very tlresome sometimes, hap
4, pily not so much to the reader as to
! the writer But this is getting away
| from the subject. What | am drly-
! ing at is that it Is time somebody
compiled list Of words that occur
| in society stories, so that all may
| know what to use and what to avoid.
| Take. for instance refreshments.

come to this desk describe the re-
I freshments as delicious" 'Delici-
! Gus refreshments were served is the
way they put It, Then there is blush
fng." That is an old on. SO old I'm
almost ashamed to include it. or
course, the other word of the phrase
