7DHERE will be much crowded
into this week with the obser-
- vance of Thanksgiving. the
numerous weddings and parties for
debutantes. Time was, when the circle
of society was much smaller, that
Thanksgiving was an occasion Of fam
lily gatherings to the exclusion Of gen
eral entertainments. but this year
there will be a decided departure from
fixed rules. There is to be at least one
wedding on that day and that night
there will be two dances for debu-
tantes.
The reason for giving dances on
such a date is rather matter of ne
cessity owing TO the great number of
debutantes who have to be considered
and the time for parties is shorter
than usual, as Ash Wednesday will
come on February 8, thus giving but
brief period after the beginning Of
the new year for dances or other en-
tertainments.
The first private dance for de-
butante was that given by Mr.. and
Mrs. John Henry Towne a week ago
last night for their daughter. Miss
Eleanor Towne. and that made q good
start for the season.
