Change In Social Life.
The well TO do American began TO
keep two houses. one in the country.
one in the city. The average American
WORKING in a great city followed his
English brother in maintaining his home
md family under the stars instead of
the electric lights.
Social life underwent a revolution.
The weekend colony became the rec
ognized diversion Except in towns
with the attractiveness of country, the
social side of life was transferred to
the open on Saturday morning and ma in
tained until Monday morning.
1t became less and less common to
rive social entertainments in town on
Saturday or Sunday They were given
in the country. To-day the fashionable
restaurants in great cities, the dance
places. the theatres are given over to
tourists. TO the immense crowd that does
not go out of town on Saturday, TO the
continuous cliff jewellers.
Fashion Is so powerful that il can
stretch tentacles, octopus-liIe. into the
furthermost recesses of the social strata
and gather the people in these strata
INTO its mighty grasp therefore, il holds
in It's grip the woman who works, the
man who slaves. the followers in So
ciety by sending them to whatever coun-
try spot that offers safe refuge over
the weekend. And there must be suit

When an entire nation takes an out

open spaces where there is skating.
slcighing, or whatever other diversions
the winter offers. along with the infor-
mality OF rapidly arranged dances and
card parties, there is bound TO be an
extraordinary demand for sport clothes
Mich that is offered at the shops is
commonplace, but the woman who Is a
sesrcher after what Is new can get away
from what Is banal because there are
new ideas cleverly carried out
II is difficult TO say whether the Eng
lish or the French excel in the designing
Of tneso sport clothes. America has
done little In this line
France has become a country Of out
door sport IL Is true. but its fashionable
women still take this phase Of life serl-

The English wear the clothes that
suit the sports. They are very apt to
be warm and sombre. When they ride
they ride. and when they play tennis
they are thinking of the game and not
OF their hair. Therefore, the absolute
sportswomen are not apt TO lead in the
