The Ne1O
Racket:
Society
BY MARGARETTA ROBERTS

BY MARGARETTA ROBERTS
kgooiai Secretary In the Homes Of Some Of
the Country's weaithIest Familie0
ATO figure in society carries a
~ greater load on her shoulders
than the daughter OF a socially
ambitious family. The son, too, is
important but he can perform his
obligations much more easily.
The daughter has been educated
in a fashionable private school, fin
ished in Europe, and finally is ready
for her debut. If she has been han
died correctly, she should be about
10 years old.
If her family is in society, and is
poor. she is supposed to retrieve the
family fortune by marrying money.
If her family is rich, but not estab-
Hshed, 1t is up to her to bring home
the blue blood.
In either case. she must work
quickly. A deb can hope for only
one good year. If she hasn't mar
ried by the end of his first sea-
son, she is called q flop" deb.
Thereafter she carries with her a
faint but quite distinct stigma OF
failure.
For the deb's first year in So
ciety all the resi- of the family must
stand back. Everything is staked
on the girl.
Next year there will be a new
crop Of debs. and this years crop
will be forgotten. Work fast is the
motto.
In case the deb fails to win a
husband the first year she can, of
course, try again the next. The
chances, however. are against her.
In many cases the flop" debs go
in for careers" or take up philan-
thropic work.
7 AUNCHING a debutante is an
Il expensive undertaking. The
debut is infinitely more important
than the marriage. Everything Is
staked on it.
There are many debutantes COM
ing-out parties that cost as much
as $4,000 and more, but these are
exceptional I have known poor,
but prominently social girls to be
introduced for as little as $4,000,
but they could not have done it
without the assurance of impeccable
background, and with the help OF
their relatives and friends who have
been in society for years.
Some girls are given two debuts,
one during the summer, at New
port. and a large formal coming
out later in New York
If girl is very popular, these two
affairs will launch her, but should
she be difficult" the parents will
need to arrange many theater
parties, dances and all possible sup
Elementary entertainment for her
4 With a great deal of wire pulling
she may be presented at the Court
of England
If the young men do not seem to
hover around her the family will
have to give parties, and serve
champagne and open the purse
strings freely until they do.
If they don't send her corsages or
orchids and gardenias, her parents
provide them
In keeping with the spirit of the
seS, some of the debutante af-
sxfairs are wild parties. A great many
