The season in the capital started early with fancy dress balls and has at least a half dozen elaborate af- faris to its credit, some of them in gilded drawing rooms, seme in country clubs or hotels and at least jone which was quite fashionable, in the one time coal bins in the cellar where an oil heater replaced the old fashioned furnace, and where Miss Charlotte Childreth, one of Washington's most beautiful debu- tants enterained.

Merriam, one time govergor jof Minnesota, was hostess at an- other fancy dress dance, given for Miss Louise Spencer and Miss Kath. erine Wilkins, two of the young ,buds, and another debutante, Mise \Evelyn Walker, who was presented at the court of Queen Mary last scason and made her debut here this winter, gave a barn dance at thie Wardman Park 8addle club where nothing was omitted from the atmosphere.
