The younger set" fiappers, debs

coming into their own in more
ways than one these days. They
are breaking rapidly into the liter
airy field and are becoming impor-

magazines lately, the Debutante
Calendar. the Junior League Bull
letin. and now the Younger Set.

happiness to those who have few
opportunities for enjoyment. All
our information comes from the
girls themselves in answer to the
lists of questions We send out, and
we are deeply grateful to those
debutantes who, when communi-
Gated with by member of the
committee or Of the association
have helped US by sending in their
answers.
