LOT OF THE SOCIAL BUD A TRYING ONE
Critical Scrutiny of lllvnln nntl of llic
dcnilcm of Soeloly 11 ( 'nlllim rlrc
Affair * ot ( lie * I'nttl Wcclt
In TlicIf Honor.
Instead of the dozen or more American
boatUles who lend their fragrance nml
beauty to the social realm only flvo will
grace the kingdom this ecaAon , though they
arc of mifflclent charm to leave nothing
wanting. With all the gallant young beaux
of which Omaha can boast to he divided
among eo few these ladles will be the proud
possessors of numbers of strings to their
bows and will certainly have no cause for
onnul or for shedding tears over wasting
their sweetness on the desert nlr. The entree
of a society bud Into the social life Is really
an ordeal through which she must pass tri
umphantly anil with flying colors If she In
ambitious for social honors and who does
' , not long for that power , that personal mag
netism that makes one a factor , a leading
; \ light in whatever walk of life r.ho Is ? Hut
11 Is an ordeal , for the bud must be most
gracious , most unaffected and unconscious
of fho many critical eyes or admiring
glances , and say the most appropriate bon
meta with a composure that would do credit
to her blaee sister of two seasons. This
I charming bud has been most guarded by her
society mother from having even n surrepti
tious glimpse of the giddy whirl , and yet
must be In all rcaOincwj to put Into prac
tice her theoretical lessons of some mc t
elect school , The teas or receptions are even
more of nn ordeal than the dances , for the
leaders of the " 400 , " the ultra-fashionable
Indira , know that often the success of their
entertainments depends upon their bevy of
beautiful girls assisting , and will consc-
quontly consider carefully the charms of the
bud , her dainty gown and the other acces-
sorles so essential to perfect appearance.
There Is sufficient variety In the character
and appearance of the debutantes of this
season to add tplco and zest. There Is one
who Is tall and dark and queenly , a veritable
ruler wherever eho appears. Another capti
vates by her pretty childlike simplicity and
gentle ways. A third Is truly a Gibson girl ,
with a Glbsoncstiue pose an artist might
envy. A fourth la a lolly rollicking girl ,
whoso merry penis of laughter win her hcsts
of admirers , and the fifth Is the versatile
girl whose popularity Is already assured.
{ MI s Edith Smith is one of Omaha's charra-
, Ing debutantes who will make her entree
Into the social world November 15 at a ro-
. ' ' ' ccptlon given by her mother , Mrs. A. 13.
| Smith , and at a dancing party the evening
! following. Miss Smith will bo a decided
. acquisition not only on account of a natural
and unusual attractiveness but also for her
T muslcaf accomplishments. She Is a pupil of
the well known teacher , Poley of Cincinnati ,
{ and is the possessor of a rich , sympathetic
mezzo of considerable range and power. It
i Is hoped that her voice may be frequently
| heard during the coming season.
