San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-10-14
In Society

days get cooler. and the time for the
Town Club dance draws nearer, and
il is rumored THAT next week COM
plete list of the dehutantes will be an
nounced. and still there are no
parties. No large ones that is. just
small informal teas, luncheons and
bridges.
Even when there are no parties
one manages TO mingle with ones
friends for one always has the Piggy
Wigglys where large informal recep-
tions are held almost every alter
noon. 1t would be rather a good idea
TO appoint hoSteSses and hold open
house in the grocery stores. For
every evening ten or twenty minutes
before the dinner hour the butcher
shops and fruit stands are crowded
with the elite of San Antonio. who
are rushing TO get the roast home in
time for supper.
What with one thing and another
Society has been busy this week even
if there were few bridge parties, few
er luncheOnS, and only one or two
dinner parties. There were two cir
cuses. and Harold Lloyd arrived in
town in one of his funniest movies,
and there was George Arliss at his
best in the Green Goddess, and the
lovely Petrova at the Majestic.
ADJUSTMENTS were not lacking. And
then. some were kept busy trying TO
colec: debts on the baseball games.
which is quite n job. as the slogan
of American folk seems these days
TO be, Try and get it.
Anyway Society has nothing TO
complain of. for no one could be bored
with the list of announcements Of
approaching marriages that come in
two by two-a pair every week. And
even il the luncheons and bridge
parties are informal they are most
interesting. as before the affair is
over there is sure TO be an announce
ment. Friday was the eventful day.
