DEBUT DANCE FOR
MISS, DUNHAM.

Mr.. and Mrs. j. C. Durham will
entertain at the Country Club on the
evening of Tuesday, December 10Th,
with a large dance for their young
daughter, Miss Jane Durham.
Miss Durham is one of the several
buds of the season and her debut will
be an event of much charm not only
for the members of the younger set,
but for number of the married
friends of her father and mother, who
have been invited to greet their
young daughter, on the evening of
her debut.
Miss Durham is one of the most
attractive girls of the younger set.
After graduating from the Armstrong
classical school, she attended the Miss
Madeira's School for Girls, in Wash
ington, D. c., where she saw much of
the interesting life of the capital.
Her gracious manner adds much to
a personality which is winsome and
charming, and she viii doubtless be
dAite as popular in society as with
the school and college set.
