Many Of the seasons debutantes Will
4. elirible for the Assemblies, or will

Tbis arrangement--a departure from the
I'D Assembly practice. though 1t has
heeu followed for several years-is very
Sisconcerting to the snobs, for no one
tnows when she sees some one at the
Ssll whom she had not expected to sec,
Chsther that some one is q really truly
subscriber or guest.
nR. HARTS own niece, Eleanor

IJAVB you noticed how many of the
~ new frocks are trimmed with beads
] don't mean the small bead embroidery
which was so much in vogue Inst season
end the season before, but the larger
beads which are appliqued to the frocks
b squares and rounds and "Wnlls of
Troy" patterns. l saw one frock the
ether day of dark blue crepe de chine,
trimmed with graduated circles of clear
red crystal beads on the skirt, and
smother had scallops of white crystal
On the bodice and on the sash as a
trimming. And the hats seem SO much
prettier this fall.
/ maintain and reiterate that while
you still see a few atrocities in the
natter Of styles. fashions are pretticr,
more sensible and graceful than ever
before. And it looks to me as IL the
@ressmakers and designers have come
to realize that the women of today
want beauty combined with comfort
and ease, and when you have these
three combined the result is very salts
flying, to say the least.

Of his mothers illness. I do hope she

breakers curling into the shore. when

she looked at her and found her not
