> e N ws Taras e e S B b e READY FOR THANKSGIVI Rociety Aco:pts a Ohance to Show Ite Bwell Olothes at the Kitchen Reception. DOINGS OF WELL KNOWN OMAHA PEOPLE Happy Hollow Echoos to the Sound of Plensing Music — Kensingtons That Brought Out the Fair Workers n Large Nu Among the virious new holidays that aro finding a permanent place among the “‘days we celebrate’’ no truo American should ever allow the time-honored festival of Thanks giving tolose its proper place of precedenco above all others (always excepting of courso tho sacred feast of Christmas), Every patrlotse man, woman and cuild should feel A peculiar pride in keoping up this distinetly American boliday ana celebrating it after the manner of our forefathers by family reunions and a bounteous and hospitable board cov ered with the dear old national dishes. It shouid be a point of tonor with us that the children should keep this feast of emancipation aud the new dispensation, not 1ike the old Jewish meai of uuleavened bread, eaten in haste with a fearand dreaa of the future, but repast of peaco and plenty set fortn by those possessing the land with o thankful heart, ¥ And whito on this subject of Thavksglviog, particularly dear to the Now knglauder in whose dominions the festival originated, a fow suggestions may be pardoned regarding the decorations for the dinuer, which should ‘come in the early afternoon, so that the chil- dren big and ittie may be permitied to cone 1o the fcast. It isnot atail necessary to have exponsive ot house flowers to make a really ocautiful arrangement for a Thanks- @ving tuble. Nothing is more decorative than the fruits of the earth 1 cloverly ar- ranged, ana they are particularly appropriato at such a time, Wbat flowers there aro should be in keeping with the season ; the late chrysanthemums are particularly adapted to this sutumnal dinner, and ruddy carrot tops, copper beeches and tlame colorea oak leaves, 1f obtwinable, form a beautiful combination. Fora centerpiece on the table a beautiful group may bo mace with golden enrs of corn, tomatoes, grapes, nuts - products of nature of all sorts. Tinv sheaves of whoat . cachi plate, tica with colored ribbon, make a prevty resting place for the card in- dicating tho oecupunt of the seat. And with the generous gifts of tature in il their lux- ury the table may be made a picture of pleas- ing delight, u perfect accompamment to Thanksgiving. Society aroused itsell sufficientlv during the past week 1o attend several charming functions, notable nmong which was (ho KKitchen reception and house warming. Happy Hollow contributed in & smull degree to the vleasures of tho week, whilo kensingtons and card parties fur- nished enough of excitoment 1o keep the smart world from dying of ennui. Prospects for the future are by no menus bright, although it 13 presumable” the swells will attend tho foot ball eams on Thursday Letwecn the university teams of Nobraska and lowa. Last year Nebraska Wwas *'not iu 11,” but itis thought this year they witl givo the Hawkeyes quito a tussle. In any oventit will be interesting and will un- doubtedly attractu big crowd. A masquerade party is plaunea for tho wook and ibo asson- ly will shortly give its imtial aance, possi- bly just beforo the holidnys. Miss Dundy has announced a fancy dress party for Fri- day evening, December 9, 1 honor of her sister, Mrs. Hienry Newman, while the Yost- Offutt weading on December 22 will set all tho bells to rioging a merry tune. Bevond this there is nothing 1 sight cxeept tho home coming of the poys and girle who ure ot college and seminary, and they will seta paco for the older people which will be hard to follow. From present indications it promises to be a quiet pre-Lenten season, but atterward well, that's auother story. i . A pessimistic sociu! circle finds that there is o regular wave of bad manners rushing over cortain portions of society nowadays. Young women are brusquo and rough young men are sncerine und sarcastic; thoso folk who have mado mouoy fast and feol their bauk balunce where their brains ought 10 be, aro nervous and touchy aud self-assertive; those who have fallen benind and ure not wble to meet the impulsive charge of the nouveanx riches, are disdmu- ful and unupproachable. A few amiable and well-bred folk ry Lo run with the have of an- noyed exclusiveness and with the hounds of aggressive suobbism, and a hard timo thoy have of it, a time of alternato heat and shivers as outraged tradition or dool 1mpudence coufronts thewr anxious and peace-desiriug vision, How can good manoers and courtly ways and speeches flourish in this atmosphere of geueral up- heaval and iconoclastic rampage! \What is needed is solf-control and rell-discipline, It 18 an art, and u very consummate art, too, to be able to turn all one's friends est-side- foremost, to «(1spiay with apparent uocon- sciousness the fact that Miss A has a sweet volco, Mrs. 13 a gencrous heart, Mrs, C a faculty of orgunization, Miss D'a graceful figure, that Mr. 15 1s the mode! hasband, and young 1" has the rmost chivalrous manueis: and in the practicd of this graceful art comos 1 the disciphme which so irks and apnoys our selfish nutures, The Kitchen feeoption, No moro brilliant reception bas ever boea heldin Owaha than the dancing reception given by Mr. und Mis, J.
