Mrs. Joslyn, assisted by Mr. nnd Mrs. Cou- .
tnnt and Mr. nnd Mrs. lluchai.an. received I
about 200 of the older married peoplo be-
tweon a and 11 o'clock. The receiving party I
stood at tho loft of tho main entrance of
rri,., ,.n,n tli,. nnllshed floor and i
tiled walls of which, together with the ex
quisite flotnl decorations, presented u sceuo
difficult to ussoclato with a barn, Tho win
down wen. latticed with ropes of smllax and
In each stood boxes of flowers, whllo banks
of palms and blossoming bongalnvlllla filled
tho eornera of tho room. HaskotB of feath
ery green wero suspended from the celling.
In the harness room there wns a profusion
of carnation's, tho troughs being banked
.with them. Throughout the evening supper
wns served In tho box-stalls, southern stnl
lax being twined about tho bars of the Iron
gratings, while the feeding boxes were
filled with candles to represent shelled corn.
Tho Ices were frozen In shapes of apples nnd
ears of com.
Thursday evening Mr. nnd Mrs. Joslyn
wore assisted by Mr. and Mrs. W. A. rte
dlck and Mrs. Holtcrhoff, nnd In tho hnrness
room, which was used as a punch room,
Mrs. Illdwell. Mrs. Ives, Mrs. Nott and Mrs.
Hall presided.
Tho carriage room was the center of tho
merriment, It bclnc used as the ball room,
the dancers consisting of tho younger mem
bers of society, whllo many moro looked on.
If society's Interest In the Country club
had llaggod, It seems to have entirely re
vived again, for that delightful place has
ouco more become a center of Omaha social
Interest. It may have been tho Ideal day?
that have stimulated this enthusiasm, but it
Is a coincident, nevertheless, that ever since
tho restocking ot tho larder tho nttendnnce
thoro has Increased noticeably. The players
that have gone out for a gnmo Into In the
afternoon have waited until early rvenlng
beforo icturnlng to tho city, and several
small golf luncheons nnd Informal dlnneis
have been the result. The storm yestordny
afternoon Interfered materially with the
formal opening, which was to bavo com
menced with the golf tournninont for the
men. As It was fully 100 people were
present and the handicap gamo was played
In tho rain. Mr. Foyo making tho low score,
S3, and Mr. Cnrtan the second, olghtcen
holon being used.
Tho rain did not dampen the spirits ot
those who wero present, however, and after
tho gamo the dinner for tho golfers and
many others came off as scheduled. Many
of the afternoon attendants camo back to.
tho city after tho gamo and returned again
In the evening for tho dance. It was this
part ot the program more than nny other
' that was affected by the Inclement weather,
nnd while the evening hop was not largely
attended, it was altogether enjoyable, the
more so, perhaps, because ihero was room
for tho dancers In tho big main room and
out on the vcrundn. While there was no
attempt at elabornto decoration there was
' an effective arrangement of flowers and
greens.
That the "shirtwaist man" has bocomo
something besides u rumor, or at least
something more tangible than tho hero of
n summor resort story, is really a fact and,
furthermore, Omaha Is to havo nt least one
of theso much-talked-of crentures this
summer If his courago does not fall him, as
It did lato last August. A certain bachelor
In town, who rather prides hlniBelt In the
matter of dress, confided to a friend the
other d;.y, a woman, that he had placed an
order with a Belfast maker for a dozen
shirtwaists that aro to be "stunners." Ho
even went further and described ono of
thorn as "made of pink stuff with white
stripes In it nnd a double piece across the
back, up next the neckband, and pleated
down' tho front." Ho said he waB going to
wear them, too, even If hn was the only
fellow in town that did.
