[ ‘SO CIETY." New York Society Is Paying Tribute to Scores of “Buds” Number of Debutantes Now Receiving Honors Greater Than in Any Previous Autumn. Notable Wedding Announced. NEW YORK, October 8.—More par- ties for debutantes have been given early this Fall at country estates and clubs than in any previous season. Some of the most prominent members of society have been formally intro- duced since the days just preceding the polo matches, and others wiil make their debuts in the near future. This is a new departure among New York's smart set, and is an indica- tiop of another change in the times. S¥frst we had before the war the for- mal debut at a reception for the younger and older ‘members of the Tanily, followed probably later in the season by a small dance in the home. Then came the war, when everything was changed and there was little or no entertaining, even for the debu- tantes. ollowing the war, the large dances were popular, where invita- tions would run into four figures and when the hostess would not know Mrs. L. Havemeyer Butt, chai; ear's ball, wiil present Miss Ars.
