XyY HlLE the spectacular diversions
wv of the leisure world occupy an
important place in the public
eye, il is interesting to know that So
ciety is by no means spending all of its
time in the pursuit of pleasure, and
that its serious concerns have not been
lost sight of in the whirl of festivities
that have characterized the past few
weeks.
There are many at this particular
time Of year, who are devotng much
of their time preparing boxes to glad
den the unfOrtunates, and little ones
whose hearts are filled with longings
The next month or 50 is dotted with
dates for this or that entertainment for
charity, and the preliminary work,
which is being done right now, entails
vast amount of planning and effort
Society has had diversified array
or delightful events again this week,
the most important of which was the
artistic concert given on Tuesday night
nj the Oregon theatre by Miss Mary
Schultz, assisted by several other popu-
lar artists Salem folks showed enthus-
iastic appreciation of the popular little
violinists art by turning out en- masse
to hear her in her farewell concert be-
fore her departure for the east.
Miss Schultz, who with Miss Nannelle
Bloom, another charming young musi
elan left the middle of the week to
study in Chicago, &as perhaps the most
clever young violinist in Salem
She will be grettly missed during her
absence, having been conspicuous
member Of the Booth string orchestra,
which furnishes the music for all of
the smartest functions.
Among the notable events of the
week was the dance given by the Mon
day night club at the Moose hall. the
Harry i. Clays dinner dance for Miss
Mary Creed Howard on Tuesday; the
bridge-tea for which Mrs. A. Marvin
Cabler was hostess Wednesday; Mrs w.
g. Allen s bridge on Friday and num-
erous club gatherings and small infor.
NAL affairs
A delightful event of yesterday, and
one Of the smartcst of the week, was
the bridge party for which Mrs w.
q. Allen was hostess.
The rooms were dccked with beauti. !
fui fall blossoms, huge yellow and
white chrysanthemums, fragrant roses
and Oregon grape, being effectively ar
rayed, making an artistic foil for the
prettily Powned matrons and maids
circiing the bridge tables.
