The men of [ this district who went to the armies | of the United States are returning to | their places in the districts business and social world. and, with their re- | turning is breaking a new social atmosphere which promises to spread until the remainder of the winter sea [ son becomes one of continual enter | tainment, of many parties. of dinners, i dinner dances, and of daily social inn portace to the entire district. One of the first organizations of the ! district to reflect this new social spirit is the Women's club. The social committee of this organization is planning for numerous informal after noon affairs within the next few weeks Cards will be the predominant | ing entertainment, although several dances have been suggested. 1 Members of the Warren District Country club are beginning to agitate i for more and more entertainments at fhair rluh hufiding coVtb nf Urorrap [ Informal and formal evening parties have been more frequent at the club | during the past month, than at any time since the United States entered ! the war, and the calendar to date promises additional entertainment A series of weekly or bi-weekly club dances for members and their friends has been suggested as a possible in- auguration.

Time was. during the war. when 1 hearts beat not to the tune of the or chestra, but to the national strains of country thrown into war Today, in the new year 1919, the war is gone. Let society come to enliven the days and nights, to take from the memory the nightmares of the IS months past,
