As a rulo It Is a visiting girl or soma
other girl that Is responsible when society
Is thrown Into a whirl ot complimentary
affairs, but last week the enso was re
versed and It was In honor of a party of
college men that tho fashionables gavo
over every evening and afternoon to a
round of pleasure that promises no abat
lng until those young men aro well out of
town. If any ono placo can bo said to
havo been tho center of tho gaiety that
place was tho Country club, for If every
thing has not actually occurred there. It
was there that everybody went to talk
things ovor during tho day and every oven
lng thero was something going on there
for the entertainment of those not enjoying
somo of the numerous other affairs, with
which tho week was filled.
The ladles' gamo on Wednesday after
noon brought out more, than the usual at
tendance and again on Saturday tho crowd
was much larger than Is customary, but
tho attendanco at the hop In tho evening
was not cxcosslvc, owing to the theater par
tics, which, being composed an they wcro ot
tho older set, loft the floor to tho pleasure
of tho younger dancers.
Tho opening of tho Iloyd on Friday even
ing occasioned an unusual number of box
and theater parties and It wns noticeable
that thero was something more than the
usual visiting among tho parties between
tho nets.
Thero nro thoso who arc looking very
wlso ot lato and all on tho quiet. Dame,
Humor Is whispering of n wedding that Is
to occur soon. It is to bo a smart affair,
too, between two ot tho oldest families
in town. Last Wednesday somebody some
wbcto gavo a charming little luncheon for
tho prospectlvo brldo and tho bridesmaids,
but tho details ot tho affair aro shrouded
in mystery and but for tho fact that cer
tain young women wcro not present at n
certain placo at a certain tlmo and refuse
to glvo any account of their whcrcnboutH
at that time, It Is doubtful It oven tho
busy Damo would havo suspected all tho
indefinite things that havo developed since
that time.
