Atten0eu Dy MANY AOWmSmen.
Halloween was celebrated last eve
ming by q gay company In fancy dress
and masque at the debutantes supper
the willard. Pumpkins with leering
faces and black cats with hunched
backs and tails erect looked down from
the walls about the room, and strung
across from side to side were ropes.
from which hung short streamers Of
black and orange. The small tables in
the boxes and about the floor had ss
favors for guests orange hats with black
cats and similar decorations, with
horns and other noise makers also
among the favors.
The company included gay ladies
from nearly every country, as well as
many foreign lands. The much dis
cussed question as to the length Of the
skirt could not have been decided from
the predominance last night. There
were ballet dancers with skirts several
inches above the knees and Colonial
ladies with wide hoopSkirtS sweeping
the floor. The debutantes of the COM
pany sat In large box at the south
end of the ballroom, accompanied by
their escorts. They were dressed alike,
In much-abbreviated costumes of two
colors the skirts being scarcely to the
knees, made Of overlapping strips OF
the material, the colors alternating.
The bodices were built to the chin in
front and cut low under the shoulder
blades in the back. The front of the
unusual bodices ended In narrow
scarf tied at the back of the neck and
fell to the top Of the waistline In the
back.
There were many striking costumes
at the party, not the least Ct which
were those worn by Capt ana Mrs
Clarnece Crittenden Calhoun, who were
both enveloped In black. The captain
wore monks gown with the hood
over his head and his face hidden with
black mask. Mrs. Calhoun was lit
