Judged by the social calendar, Lent I
having Its full effect In Omaha, but one
muat not depend too much on published an
nouncements of the socl:tl Intentions of
people. The penitential aeasun la entitled
to a certain amount of deference, but the
mart folke long ago found out that they
can keep Lent, to all outward app"vrnnre
at least, and at the same time not forego
to an unreasonable extent the enjoyment
of thosa things they find pleasant at other
seasons of tha -year. It haa been long
since the wfort y days received any more
formal" recognition than the abandonment
Cfthose) larger affairs which call together
tha Just and unjust of the social body, for
there are those who are so old-fashioned
a to have definite notions about matters
of religion and who scruple to lightly put
aside the obligation laid upon them by
the faith they profess, and to these society
pays the tribute of respect by not an
nouncing Its chlefeat functions. And, then,
very-body Is In a mood to welcome the
bglef respite from a series of balls and
dinners and Is willing to bo content with
Just a little In the wsy of doings, enough
to prevent absolute stagnation and not
enough to excite any unpleasant comment.
Thus those who are really Inclined to be
devout from Ash Wednesday until Easter
Sunday has pajned are allowed to do so
without being disturbed by the clamor of
those who do not feel any especial In
clination to contrition at this or any other
season of the year, while the latter are al
lowed to give over their time to bridge
and other "Intellectual" pursuits with the
added unction of knowing that they nre
not likely to be disturbed or to disturb any
one. The early part of the last week was busy
with the affairs that must, be gotten out
of the way before the dawn of Wednesdar,
and two days and two nights of the rush
found the smart folks quite ready to wet
come the time of social Inactivity. But
Thursday evening found them ready to go
again, at least most of them did go, for
the Boyd theater entrance witnessed a Jam
that evening such as Is seldom seen In
Omaha, while the waiting line of carriages
on Friday and Saturday nights Indicated
that the theattr Isn't exactly enumerated
among those things that must be given up.
Aside from some of those formalities named
over last week the women have deter
mined that something may be done with
out seriously abrogating Lenten, obliga
tions and Just a few things are given out
for the coming week. It Is only fair to
ay that these are of the quiet order and
It la not outside the Una of facta to say
that all that is contemplated has not been
announced.

GOOD TIME AT MARDI GRAS
m
Kebraskans Hetarn from Kew Orleans,
Where They Attended the Great
Festival.
The 181 Nebraska grain and lumber men
who went to New Orleans to attend the
Mnrdl Uras festivities, returned yesterday.
As many of them as could he roundvd up
found difficulty In securing language to
portray their Impressions of the time they
had. Still, the trip had Its "bitters." for
some at least. Several of the continent
brought back well developed colds. They
attributed the affection to the change of
climate and the wet, cloudy weather In the
south.
"But for all that, the trip was a good one
and we are glad we took It," said Charles
McCloud of York, who was accompanied
by Mra. McCloud on the Journey. "It Is a
great, treat to be In New Orleans, or
'N'worleena.' as the good natured south
erner says, during that great festival, Mardl
Urns.
"The city is Jammed and everybody is
out for a good time. And It takes those
southerners to have a good time, too. Why,
Tuesday New Orleans, with Its JOO.OOO and
more of people, actually suspended busi
ness of all lines, to turn out and make that
gala day of the week a success.
"People down there are never too busy to
be courteous and Kind. That's one thing I
like about them. A couple of us fellows
were wanting to find a certain place and
asked a man In a "business house where It
was. Now, up here In the north we would
have casually directed the stranger ond
gone on about our busy business, but that
man put on his hat and walked down the
street a couple of blorks with us to make
sure that we would find the place we were
looking for. That's the way they do It.
"Most people who go to the Mardl Qras
have trouble In getting good hotel accom
modations, not because there arn't hotels
there, but because the city always Is
crowded, but we did not have that ob
stacle to contend with. We simply staid
In our private train, a Missouri Pacific
train In which we had gone from Omaha.
It was stationed on the Texas & Pacific
tracks, a convenient distance from the
scenes of operation, so we were all right
In that regard.
"One visiting the south, and especially
New Orleans, is struck with the need of
good sanitary conditions, such as wo have
In the north. Of course things are better
now than they were a few years ago down
there, but there's lots of room for improve
ment yet. New Orleans is particularly bad
In this respect. But It's a good business
city, and so are many others down there,
Memphis, for Instance. Fort Smith, Ark.,
Struck me as about the cleanest and liveli
est little city of any I saw."
The special train was under the personal
supervision of Tom Godfrey of the Missouri
Pacific and J. O. Phllllppi waa aboard to
aid Mr. Oodfrey In seeing that, it didn't
run off the track.
Mlsa Dunster, who has bean studying for
a 'month with Mr. Oeorge Leykauf of De
troit, has returned and will reopen her
studio for lessons at 821 Paxton block,
Wednesday, February 24.
