6 TU: 15KE: OMAHA. FRIDAY. MAY Society By MELLIFICIA Thursday, May 14, 1914. THE climate has something to do with everything that happens In Log Angeles, according to Irvln S. Cobb of Saturday livening Post fame. When on the train you know when you are draw ing nwr to the famoui roast city, for (he conductor auks you what you think of the climate. As you defend from the train the page who takes your traveling bag says, "How do you like the climate?" and before you get the opportunity to register at the hotel the clerk says. "How do you like the climate?" relates Mr. Cobb. Well, some queer things have been happening In Omaha recently all because of the climate. The other evening a young woman attended a dinner party, when her escort was a young millionaire from New York City, who was making a short stay -here. The young noman had succeeded In making quite an Impression on the dtstlngulKhrd guent. Hut. alas, alack! An they motored up to the young woman's homo she noticed that all of the porch lights were lit, and dlsjlngulshcd figures talking around, some carrying sheets, kimonos, kitcheu aprons, and now and then waving the aforesaid articles. "Well. I guess my family have joined some religious cult during my absence and they are having midnight Incantations," the embarrassed young woman remarked. The window boxes and porch backets had just been filled with hot house flower's and ferns and the family had decided to protect them from the threatened frost and were covering thorn with a variety of household linens and wearing apparel. "I think the New Yorker must think that at leaxt the Middle Western ers are rather original," decided the young woman, "for instead of having a maid or a butler open the door for you, we have the entire family mother wearing fathers coat and waving a sheet, and father in his bath robe and carrying a kimono, and oh hang this climate! Whoever heard of having frost in May, anyway," she soliloquised. roruiAR sorority girl was WEDDED LAST NIGHT. fc. " " " - -: . ' Masonic Dance at Manawa. Mr. 11. if.
