OCIETY Junior League Has Program That Appeals to Social Set New York Organization Announces Experiment in Entertaining—Fashion Circles Hail Debu- tantes—Notable Wedding Engagements. NEW YORK, October 5.—The New York Junior League announces a new experiment in social entertaining to be organized in co-operation with a prom- inent New York shop. The bureau for entertainments, which will be under the personal direction of Mrs, Robert Littell and Mrs. Chester Burden, opened on Monday for the twofold purpose of offering a unique service to the public and of furnishing a substantial part of its budget for maintaining the baby shelter in its new clubhouse and its various other charities. The function of the bureau will be to assist in the planning and executing of entertainments of both A public and a private nature. Every possible assist- ance will be offered, from the ordering of simple dinners to the staging of elab- orate ballroom functions. Explaining the aims of the bureau, Mrs. Littell said: “We alm to relieve people of every responsibility in con- nection with entertaining. Our service will include the engaging of artists and profassional entertainers, securing of ballrooms and orchestras, catering, sup- plying flowers and any other special need that may come up. We shall per- sonally hear and see all entertainments that we recommend. We have already selected from all available concert, the- atrical and vaudeville artists a list of those whose merit, talent and person- ality will insure a gay and delightful as well as artistic evening.” The Junior League Bureau for En- tertainments is to be available to any one wishing to utilize it and the offices will open their doors today. Total of 200 Society Buds Lizted for Presentation. It has been estimated that the num- ber of debutantes to be introduced this season will include fully 200, which will be the greatest number on record. ‘This naturally will make many conflict- ing dates, for it is impossible as in former years to arrange the schedule with only one major party in an eve- ning; instead there will be as many as a dozen large dinners and dances on the same night during the height of the season, especially during the Christmas holidays. An effort is to be made this, year to have the dances start ell'l]el';i ;bout 10 o'clock, and end not later than | am, | Several engagements of interest have I been announced in the last few days. !
