The isembers of the Baraca class
of the Methodist church enjoyed their
annual picnic at the Chautauqua
park ThurSday afternoon. The out
ing wan a most delightful one and
all In attendance entered into the
various sports with a great deal of
zest. One Of the features was a
baseball game in which number of
stars were developed. Had Cen
trial Texas league scout been pres
ent 1t is quite likely that several Of
the Ty Cobbs and Benny Kauffs
would have been signed up.
( One Of the features of the outing
was the barbecue prepared and serv-
ed under the direction of those past
masters at the art, Jofn M. Harris
and J. w. Martin There was also
plenty of lemonade to refresh the pic
nickers throughout the afternoon.
Just before the barbecue was serv-
ed ON long tables a devotional SER
vice was held in the grove. Follow
ing a prayer by ID. J. McGee, short
talks were made by Pat Sims and
Mr.. q. G. Groce.

 Rest just blissful rest, tonight, with a chance to look at the new magazines 1 that l have been saving up for weeks. 1 don't think debutantes are supposed to have minds, but they are rather useful appendages when one sits next to very learned bachelor at dinner. My mind certainly needs refreshing, for I don't think I have read thing except Vogue since Thanksgiving, and a man certainly can't be entertained with fashions in the abstract when
 he has them, charmingly concrete, staring him in the face. So I hope l will be all rested up. in body and soul ana mlnd ana feady Tor the new year, for sometimes it is quite useful to use the latter two in making reso- lutions that restrict the former

THE DIARY OF A DEBUTANTE
$zy

Monday-Being an old-fashoned girl has it's compensations, after all for would never in the world have been able to have this wonderful season, if I had not been kept quite young by dads spelling and quite unsophisti- cated by mothers schooling. I used to think that being shut up inside of convent walls made one stupid and it may, but it does add materially to ones joy in life after school days are over.
 Mother is so afraid that I will ac- ouire that blase attitude that has made many a debutante uninteresting in the past, she says, but she needn't fear-and she wouldn't if she could overhear some of the foolish little girl things that I find myself saying half the time. Oh, it makes me wish that l were beautifully poised like Gertrude Motion, or really clever and viva cious like Beverly Leale or Leonora Hassin- ger! It's awfully hard to be ''one's own sweet self' (according to Aunt Polly) when my own Sweet self' is such baby
 But I am going to have a most won derful week, almost more wonderful than last, though that was Christmas, and l have all of my engagements written in truly grown-up fashion in my little gold and white book that Eli leen gave me as a Christmas gift can hardly wait for the R. M. T. dance tonight and that perfectly indispen- sable guardian of mine has sent me a hoo ,,lJx f-or ~f N1o+e and roses and lilies to match my new \ silver and blue frock
 T Tuesday-It was quite up to eXpecta- tions--that R. M. T. dance-really eclipsing any they have ever given before; and I am beauteously happy over my Dorin box. It is thing ab- solutely essential to debutanting this year, and every other year, of course, for even debutantes are not supposed to be so old fashioned as not to powder their noses occasionally. The ones that the boys gave us as favors last night are silver with exquisite enameled tops and the R. M T. monogram on the bottom. I know I shall carry mine till 1t falls to pieces.
 My looks were not at all disappoint- ing last night, tor l am not bad in blue, and my flowers were so quaint and sweet but l could never hope to look so charming in appearance as was Eliza beth Locke She lead the figures with Evans Dunn, and she really was picture in her gown of blue brocaded taffeta and tulle with just enough sil- yer to make it distinguished. She car ried pink roses and was altogether lovely. And so was Beth Wyman, for she and Mark Myatt assisted. who wore wonderful blue brocaded chiffon and carried white roses.
 Beverly Leake is chattering today about the Badham boys dinner yes-

tie Cullom's luncheon yesterday, for we were in the sun parlor, and the table looked for all the world like a French garden on a June day. There
 were even little French girls stroll ing about to mark the places of the
 guests, and their quaint attire rivaled in the beauty of pastel colors the dainty pink rosebuds that overflowed from a graceful Marie Antoinette bas- ket of white, topped with blue tulle bow. We were surrounded by a per feet jungle of palms and ferns and I imagine it must rave reminded Miss Drummond, for whom the luncheon was siven, very much of her California home.
 And then it was winter again at
 the club last night when we frolicked amidst the Christmas greens and danced away the hours of the old year. When the whistles began to blow and the bells to ring, it gave me the wierd- est most trlly feeling, just as if some
 thing wonderful were going to hap pen. But didn't have time to think
 about it then, and I am too lazy now,
 for I can only remember the Happy New Year" lights and the figures of the cotillion led by MT. and Mrs. Kirk patrick, and the lovely frocks of all of the girls. There were all sorts of fascina ting favors to rlutter and jangle, and we had wonderfully joy ous time.
 I hear that there were gay parties at all of the other clubs, too, with miles of serpentines, and clouds of confetti, and gayety and dancing. Then at the Tutwiler they danced almost all night, though there isn't soul awake yet to tell me about it.
 But I'm glad that it is a perfectly new year and I had a beautiful time at Miss Fannie Dunn's luncheon at the
 Southern club today, and I am already anxious to begin dancing tonight. There really isn't anything in the world quite so fascinating as being debu- tante and I just hope that this sea-
 son stretches out endlessly.
