.SOCIET Y

Society is busy with plans for the
social season. now that the ban on
large gatherings has been lifted by the
board Of health. and all signs point
TO a more joyous atmosphere than has
been felt here since the nrst effects
of tho epidemic were noted. The best
known women of Richmond are tre-
mcndously Interested in tho United
War Work Campaign, and ara bending
every effort to make 1t success. Most
= interesting sessions have been held
and the work for the drive has been
well arranged in order that things
may go forward without n hitch.
There have been theaters, concerts
and meetings OF all kinds this past

and inspiring news from across the

cial season not half SO humdrum as

OF thrift and war savings stamps goes
merrily on and society adorns the
booths on Broad and Main Streets in
all sorts OF fetching costumes and bon
nets to push the work. Groups of
pretty society girls sell stamps through
the audiences at every evening per-

nearly over is no reason for the slight
est abatement in the work that has
been mapped out to back up our army
and navy and the government, and
organizations everywhere are going
ahead with their plans to help wherever
help is needed.
One of the interesting social fea
lures of this week will be the regular
