Society Is still dun. IT'S pity, of
course. but since people will not be
gay unless they want to be. there is
no use trying to cure the matter. Mis-
soula as a social center compares more
than favorably with most places in
Montana, 80 that It is safe to say that
society is dull everywhere. In many
things indeed ANssoula leads in this
matter. The leap year party given
here was the first Of any prominence
which has been authentically reported,
and while Helena and other places
soula has been surpassed in the brill
liancy and success of the occasion. As
II dancing town. too. Missoula's enthu-
siasm is unequalled and people who
travel enough to know gay that Mis-
soulians dance well. There certainly
is, however, a dearth of private parties
OF any pretensi0ns rs to size and elab-
orateness. something to talk about for
more than a week. Almost everything
is done by subscription. which, while
1t has it's advantages is open to the
charge of monotony.
