Now that the weddings are about all over, If It was not for the home coming of the college folks the prospects would scarcely be as bright as they are. The return of the young people has set society to dancing again, as usual, figuratively and literally. Two of the largest affairs planned definitely for the next fortnight are dancing parties, and half the matrons who had supposed their entertaining over until fall, especially those who have sons or daugh ters home from school, find themselves planning something for their entertain ment. But, after all, it matters little what the season or the weather Is, society likes to dance and, whether It dances in honor of visiting girls or the home coming of future society men and women, it enjoys It about as well 'as anything that Is pro vided. The opening of the new club house at the Field club last evening puts the sum mer season In full swing so far as the local society folk are concerned. The Sat urday and Wednesday evening hops and the dining room In fact, most of the privileges of the club excepting the out-of-doors games, have been seriously missed this season, so seriously, In fact, that one can't help wondering what society did before the Field and Country clubs were opened. There were several dinner parties and many Individual dinners served between 5 and 7 o'clock at the Field club last even ing an after that there was the dance. The fine afternoon brought out a large attendance for the tennis match in the afternoon, and a good part of the mem bers remained for dinner and to watch if not participate In the dancing later. Notwithstanding the attractions Incl dental to the opening of the new Field club house yesterday afternoon the Country club had about Its usual crowd out for dinner and the hop later. If anything, there were more dinner parties than usual and they were larger, too. Among those who entertained were Mr. I. uther Dralce, who had a party of six; Mr. and Mrs. D. O. Ives, a party of twelve; Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Love, two, and Mr. and Mrs. McOrew, two. Mr. and Mrs. John A. McShane enter tained Mr. and Mrs. H. T. Lemlst, Mrs. 8. Q. Strickland, Mr and Mrs. E. M. Fairfield, Miss Dewey, Judge Woolworth and Mr. Frank Berkeley. Mr. C. C. Oeorge entertained for Miss George and Miss Florence Oeorge of Gales burg, 111., his party. Including Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Soott, Miss Oeorge, Miss Flor ence Oeorge, Miss Crounse, Miss Hamlin, Mr. Randall Brown, Mr. Ross Towle, Mr. A. S. Rogers, Mr. J. E. Oeorge and Mr. C. C. George. Mr and Mrs. Scoble had as their gust Dr. and Mrs. Connor, Mr. and Mrs. F. II. Gaines, Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Mahoney and Mr. Isaac Coles. With Mr. and Mrs. O. W. Wattles were: Mr. and Mrs. O. Ml Hitchcock and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Greene. Captain and Mrs. Thomas Swobe enter tained Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Oulou and Mr. and Mrs. Edward Swobe. With Mr. and Mrs. Oeorga.Palmer were: Mrs. Herman D. Kountie of New York, Mr. Milton Darling and Mr. and Mrs. George Peek. Is the June wedding really going out of style? Notwithstanding the fact that there have been two royal weddings this month. and that the society chronicles are ab normally extended with accounts of June weddings and brides, their trousseaus and their accomplishments, the word haa gone out from those sources where the correct thing socially Is supposed to originate that June Is no longer the preferred month of those who would depart from the ways -of the common folk. But whether the prestige of the month of roses Is on the wane or not. It Is certain that this season's brides have departed notloeably from the ancient tradition regarding Wednesday as a wed ding day. Monday for health, Tuesday for wealth, Wednesday the best day of all. Thursday for losses, Friday for crosses, Saturday no day at all. This Is the verse that has guided the bride for generations, but the desire to be unusual seems to have altogether out weighed tradition of lata and Thursday and Saturday, In defiance even of super etltlon. seem to be the preferred days. And along with the time-honored prefer ences of month and day are passing also some of the other well established wed' ding conventionalities. The engraved card that was once counted the only correct In vltatlon Is no longer looked upon as es ential. It is entirely proper nowadays to bid one's friends verbally, even to church weddings, while the informal note of In the most particular for chureh or home weddings where the guest list Is not too extensive. The wedding veil that has so long done service is in many Instances giving place to the wreath of flowers that was once counted suitable only for the bridesmaids, and even a greater departure Is the picture hat. Since photography has been, and even before, the portraits of the bride and groom In their wedding costume has been one of the most valued records of the day of days, but It has been a set, stiff affair, painted or made after they have returned from the bridal trip, and usually in some studio. The advent of the kodak and the amateur photographer has changed all this. too. and nowadays the snapshot of the bride Is as much a part of the wedding as the handshaking or any of the other things that follow the ceremony.

The first meeting will be held the third Wednesday In B"pte?nhT. The organisation during the last week of he Nebraska Federation of Colored Worn- n's Clubs Is one of the most progressive steps that have ret been taken by the col ored women or tne state ana promises mui.ii at j.30 'corK: for their future usefulness and influence. The uplifting and purifying of the home and making of better citizens Is the object of the organization. So far as known there are less than half a dozen clubs of colored women ln the state orgnnlzed for regular women's club work. The North Omaha Woman's club, one of the strongest of these, disbanded three years ago, but two weeks ago practically the same women were reorganized In the Omaha Colon-d Mothers' club, with Mrs. Minnie Costen president. The Clenlans Woman's club of South Omaha Is a progressive organisation, doing good work ln domestic science and other branches, while the Art club of Omaha Is also doing good work. Borosls Colored Women's club of Lincoln Is also nn active, progressive organization. Aside from these, the other organizations In cluded In the new state federation are church aid societies. Twelve of these are represented In Omaha, South Omaha, Lin coln and Fremont and It Is expected th.it Hastings and Grand Island will soon be represented. For the work preliminary to the formal organization and the management of the convention held In Omaha Wednesday, Thursday and , Friday of last week, too much credit cannot be given the women who had part in it. While the majority were Inexperienced ln the methods of con ducting meetings, they were no more so than the average women's club la at th? start. Mrs. Elizabeth Llndsey Davis of Chicago of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, who superintended the federation, expressed much satisfaction at its result. In speaking of It she said: "There are good. Intelligent women with good Ideas and considerable executive abil ity ln the federation and they ought to und undoubtedly will do good work If they per severe. There Is great need of and they are capable of doing a much broader work than Is being accomplished In the church societies. These societies have their place, of course, but It Is the aim of the National association to get our women out of the rut and the narrowness of these auxiliary circles, where they can work by themselves and for each other. The persistent Inter ference of the ministers at our meeting In Omaha demonstrates th necessity of ttte colored women working ln organizations where they will not be handicapped by those who do not understand their alms or the work of the woman's club movement. The well Intended presence of those colored ministers was a serious detriment to the meeting and If It continues will be a men ace to the future usefulness of the organi zation. Naturally timid and Inexperienced. the presence of the men but made .the women more so. The ministers have no place In the club meetings and should not atttnd them." The current topics an.l ethics deport ments of the Woman's club will hold their annual picnic June 27 at Rlvrrvlew pnrk. The husbands and children of the mem bers will be the guests of the afternoon. The large pavilion has been appointed ns the meeting place and dinner will be served PURE FOOD SHOW EDUCATOR III- Display at Amlltnrlnm in Anauat Promise, to Knllahten People.

There are thirty-one state organizations, but ten of these are not affiliated with the national, although It Is expected that all will have come ln before the next national meeting to be held at Detroit In July, 1906. With out funds to pay traveling expenses of its officers or for prepagandlsm, It has been necessary to extend the work through a thorough and systematic organization ln every state, which reports back to the national. "The purity of the home is the colored people's problem of the twentieth century," said Mrs. Davis last week, "and It Is time for the women and mothers to take a hand in it. adjustment. This we can do to a large extent through the teaching, the experiences and the Influence of the Woman's club. Through the club we must instill In our women a race pride that will frown upon and place the club stamp of disapproyal upon everything that tends to lower the standard of the com munity. Our women can do this and with telling effect. There Is a reason for the low standards and ideal, that our women hold for their homes. Only fifty years ago they were fresh from the cotton fields with no Idea or conception of the sacred relations of the home or the marital vows, and we can not wonder that the marks of those dark years are still upon them. We have been and many of us are still Ignorant, but we are all so anxious to Im prove, and many of us have done so. The mission of these uplifted ones Is to lend a hand to elevate their millions of sister. on the plantation, of the south, in the one- room cabins and those herded together In the streets of the cities north and south. and teach them frugality, honesty, clean- lines, and Industry. We who have had opportunity realize that no race can rise higher than it. women and we recognize our great responsibility.
