' By comparison with last week this week's calendar looks rather slim, but It Is doubt ful If any one especially regrets the pros pect of a quiet week after the round of holiday gaiety of the last fortnight unless It bo some of tho girls who as platers, .daughters and friends have been too oecu pled assisting somebody else to have had :much time for affairs of their own, aside .from the theater or a luncheon now and '.then. In the main. It has been the college people, and they have danced and danced 'and danced, and skated and had a gay time .generally. There have not been halls Enough or nights enough for all that they Would have done, Hut there have been other things, too, conspicuous among which win the gathering of Old Settlers at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry W. Yates 'Xew Year's night. The Cotillion Wednes day evening was an especially smart affair that at any other time would have stood out prominently among the week's gather ings, but amid the rush of other things Tias simply another dancing party. New Year's day was rather a disappoint ment. Quite as much In what It afforded as In what It lacked. There were a few .affairs that will be remembered, among .these tho Informal reception held by Miss Mount and half a dozen other homes where fc'few of tho younger girls kept open house idurtng the afternoon and evening. Of course there were the big annual public receptions, and these were qullo up to the standard of previous years, but In the main there was not the general hospitality that rna-ked lost New Year's and that has so long characterised the first day of the year. ; All of society, whether It has been "asked" or not, la anticipating the leap year ball to bo given Wednesday evening at Chamber's by about fort of the young women. It Is to be a subscription affair, B.nd to date not a single man has been askod to aaslst In any way whatever, no( even the husbands of the few married .women who have a part, so the younn women say. It Is also said that certain Of th bachelors who so evidently prefer ."single blessedness," are going to be af Jowed to enjoy It undisturbed Wednes day evening, unless their married sisters or mothers or some other elderly person sees fit to bring them, but even ao they are ' on the blacklist and the outlook for them Is not especially bright. The arrival of the Thirtieth Infantry al Fort Crook laat Sunday promises to con tribute materially to things social during the remainder of the winter, for there are among the officers and their fumlllea many who are already well known here and who will be welcome additions to society.
