ITH what should have been, but most distinctly has not been, the crisp, autumnal gold and brown month of November drawing to a close, New Britain’s social season ap- | pears to have taken a deep breath and started off on its course at a record breaking pace. A breathless and giddy course it will be, judging from present indications! The splendid weather | leaves the field for golf almost wide open and the Shuttle Meadow club continues to be the daily rendezvous of the more ardent enthusiasts. Equestriennes too, are taking keen pleasure in this open winter and lose no opportunity to enjoy the delightful bridle paths in town,’in West Hartford and in other nearby places, * ¥k 'HATEVER else the pre-holiday season may or may not do, it has already come very close to establishing a record in the matter of small house parties—bridge in the foreground. The way New Britain matrons are entertaining, would seem to indicate a desire to greet the new vear with a clear field, a calendar empty of social debts. Included in the week's parties was one which Mrs. Clavence Manning and Miss Katharine Swift gave Tuesday afternoon on Sunnyledge, at the residence of the James Norths. The party was one of the most brilliant of the week and attracted a number of local society matrons . and young debutantes. * ke EXT week will witness the second in a series of three sub- seription dances scheduled to occur at the Shuttle Meadow club this winter. Adding much to the zest of life and increas- ing the joy of these affairs are the dinner gatherings which always precede them. Mrs. Hamilton Bickford and Mrs. Howard Humphrey are numbered among next week’s hostesses and then of course, there are scores of other parties, each and every one a gay one. x NE of the major events of the week was the regular monthly * x meeting of the Esther Stanley chapter, D.
