Margaret Holbrook Smith In New fork
Times.
In the main the last week has been more
than quiet, though It could scarcely b
called dull, (or there la always left tit
privilege of calling and while thera are
enough ptople In town to make : up a
calling list there la little danger of mo
notonyprovided It does not last too long.
The week started -out promising enough:
It needed but a day of sunshine to warm
the Country c!ub Into favor again and send
a bunch of the fashionable folk out to
the links for a game. In the afternoon
there waa a mixed foursome match. In
which ten cmiplea participated, the game
being followed by a dinner and dance,
even If It waa Monday. Tuesday brought
out another crowd that reminded one of
summer, but Wednesday waa the red-letter
day of the week. In spite of the rain, the
club ' house waa filled with women who
proposed to exercise the ladles' day priv
ileges to the end. It la no secret, 'how
ever, that) several hoetesses were com
pelled to fill out their guest lima at the
eleventh hour and even then alt the
luncheon parties had not the. number for
which plates had been ordered, for pop
ular as the Wednesday luncheon la, all
the women were not willing to make the
sacrlflce necessary to get there on some
occasions.
Thla week there will be more weddings,
that of Miss Lillian 8nell ' arM Mr. Al
bert Egbert., which occurs Wednesday aft
ernoon, and that of Miss Elms. Rothschild
and Mr. Harry Hlrsh of Dea Moines, which
takes place at R:S0 Thursday afternoon at
Metropolitan club, bel.ng . the largest.
Speaking of weddings, recalls the fact that
three more date have loomed up on the
calendar, red-letter dates, ' the first being
September 80, the second October t and the
third October 14, and then, later on, In
December, probably the latter part, there
will be another big wedding.
And all of thla recalls a bit of chat that
has been going the rounds about an en
gagement announcement that the young
woman concerned, who, by the way. Uvea
over In 'Worthlngton Place, Insists has
never been announced at all. She does not
deny that there Is an engagement, at
least not to everybody, but as the young
man In the question haa told It to his
friends and It has. been announced In the
papers of a, city acrosa the river, where
he resides, her friends are not taking her
denial altogether seriously.
With the Ak-Sar-Ben ball less than a
month off, asoclety la beginning to wonder
who will be' the queen this year. One thing
seems safe to predict, and that la that the
selection will not be made from the list of
prospective brides, for those popular young
women have quite enough to think about
and plan In the way of gowns for their
trousseaus without taking upon themselves
the responsibility of a queen's gown. None
of them would accept the honor, tt la said.
even If it were offered them, which fact.
while it makes a big hole In the list of
eltglblea, still leaves the debutantes and
the prospective debutantes, who, by the
way, are beginning to loom tip on the
social horlson In a manner that will make
some of the girl who have had things pretty
much their own way. look to their laurels
before long. The selection "has been made
from among the prospective debutantes In
the past, and there la no' particular reason
why It should not be again.
But to go back' to the prospective brides
and their - objection to an honor that al
most any woman might' ba expected to
covet, there la method In It aa la Indicated
by the lament of a former queen, who said
the other day: "Mr coronation gown Is a
veritable white elephant. I can't wear It
and I can't have It mad over, for every
body would be aure to say, 'That la the
gown she wore when ahe was queen.' It Is
far too elaborate to wear for any other oo
caslon, o I have never worn It since, eg.
cept to the ball the following year, and
then, between having it inspected at close
range and trying to move about with the
long court train, I spent a wretched averr
ing. I suppose there will be some satis
faction In showing It to my grand daught
ers arid telling them of the night I wore tt.
but . thtnga don't become heirlooms for
generation or so. so to me It la chiefly a
source of regret that this, the most el
gant thing of my whole wardrobe, la so ut
terly useleas to me."
The last week has seen a genearl exodus
of school folks who. with many a sigh and
not a little expectation, and no end of
sofa cushions, racequet caaea. rugs, plcturea
and like trophies of the summer have been
packed off to school. The list is a long one,
too, longer than usual this fall, and the
mother who haa had a daughter or two to
get off haa been a busy woman Indeed.
Not more ao however, than the mothers
of another set of girls who have
had sewing to be done. In fact, there haa
been more talk about trousseaus this fall
than any one can remember ever having
heard before, and the local modlstea have
been taxed to accomplish all that haa been
required of them and even then. It Is said
the late datea of some of the m-eddtngs are
said to be of necessity rather than of choice
One of the handsomest oulflta of all Is
being mad In Chicago but aoclety Is not
going to get to see It after all for this
bride Is going away.
If there la anything In signs, one couple
who were launched on the rnatrlmonal sea
during the week have a great deal In their
favor. The wedding waa at one of the
fashionable clubs of the city, and Just cs
the hush fell upon th comany assembled
and the opening words of the marriage ser
vice were begun, up among the flowers and
greens that formed a background for the
bridal party, a cricket began to chlsp and

omen of good continued.
