ra Debutantes’ SOCIETY. Activities Include Serious Work That the life of & debutante is not all a round of parties is proven in the activities of this year's group of buds, who are busy themselves in every branch occupation. ‘Perhaps the latest and most modern ©of these is the group headed by Miss Margene Musser, daughter of Col. and Mrs. Robert C. Musser, who is in charge of the broadcasting period of the National Motion Picture League on each Wednesday afternoon at 4:45 o'clock. Last Wednesday, Miss Musser's program was novel in that three debutantes took part in it. Miss Betty West, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Millard West, accom- panied at the piano by Miss Louise » Turner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis “Turner, jr., sang several selections, and Miss Musser reviewed a current motion icture. Although this program has n presented for a long time, it has ‘heretofore consisted only of short talks. Miss Musser plans to ask the assistance of many of debutantes and many & talent which has remained a hidden charm may make its debut over the air. There is another group, fast growing in size and importance and tends more to charity work. It is composed of girls who are interested in social service work at the Garfield Memorial Hospital, in what is known as the Nursery Guild. Miss Helen Lee Eames Doherty, Miss Virginia Glazebrook, Miss Elizabeth Ed- son, Miss Adelaide Harley and Miss Jane cushing are a part of this interesting circle. ‘Beauty shops, specialty stores, offices, Red Cross anches and individual hobbles are included in the source of occupations for many of the debutantes who are finding life & bit quiet after the gay round of holiday festivities. Miss Georgette Yerby, daughter of Gen. and Mrs. Charles H. Bridges, who for many years has been a student of toe dancing, is completing arrangements for study- ing ofl painting, in which she is keenly interested. Miss_Evelyn Howe, dflughwr of Mrs, Mary D. Howe, is a poet of much ability. Miss Elizabeth Brawner, who “came out” last year, is a Red Cross worker, while Miss Adair Childress, who was presented the year previous, is employed in a beauty shop on Connecticut avenue. She has made a study of this specialty and finds much enjoyment in her oc- cupation. Miss Margene Musser and Miss Eliza- beth Edson, who have passed the last few days in West Point, will return to their homes tomorrow. Mrs. Robert C. l‘\(fiumr chaperoned them on the motor p.

These visitors will include such fa- mous persons 8s Jupiter himself with his retinue, to be done by Mr. James Otis Porter and a group including Mrs. James Otis Porter, Mr. and Mrs. Stan- wood Cobb, Miss Minna Niemann, Mrs. John F. Gaynor, Mrs. Suzanne Old- berg and others. Mars in the person of Mr. Jack Perry, Venus in the person of Mrs. Robert N. Patterson, Saturn by Mr. John Paul Jones, Neptune by Mr. Leslie Wandby, Mercury by Mr. Brown- ton, Pluto to Mr. Carlton Van Valken- burg and & countless variety of girls— snow maidens, vestals, Egyptian dancers, Victorian dancers, modern show girls, Broadway chorines—these and others will appear as if by magic at the court of King Looney on the moon at 11 o'clock on the night of the Bal Boheme. King Looney himself, in the person of Mr. Harry Welker, amid all the glories of the moonlit kingdom, is eager to discover what is going on down on the earth, from which a projectile has just arrived, purporting to have been sent out thousands of years previous. Faster and more furiously come the projectiles, as succeeding ages on earth perfect bigger and better machines, and they all arrive at the moon simul- taneously—with an amazing climax— which is being kept a secret most pro- found. The atmosphere about the moon is rarified in the extreme. Thanks to the fact that Mr. Felix Mahony has been “up in the air” for several months, the ball room will be quite “turned upside down” for this season’s Bal Boheme, and from the spaces of the universe, earth mortal will go beyond the three dimensions, and possibly discover the fourth—who knows? Suffice to say that flames of silver and spectrum color will mingle with misty moonbeams in the starry spaces of the universe on the night of Bal Boheme. Two entirely different color pictures will present themselves to the eye upon entering and upon leaving the ball room. Planets will shoot through space with the rapidity of comets, with the Milky Way and the signs of the Zodiac in full pursuit, it would seem.
