SOCIETY 1S MOVING FASTER| Early Fall Events Set Bwell Folks to Doirg Things. LAST WEEK FULL OF INFORMAL AFFAIRS Weddings and Two Theater Openings Head the of Local Activities Among the Gregarious. Afterward. Clarice W. Riley, in New York Times. Now doth the ruthless Summer Maid Gase proudly o'er her siain, And goes and gets herself arrayed To start the Fall campalgn. Now doth the wretched Summer Man Reflect in solitude On various promises he's made And how to make them good. ‘And Summer Man and Bummer Maid Repent them of their ains: While, atanding just within the shade, How »slyly Cupld grins. The opening of tne theaters, two large weddings and almost no end of luncheons and small card parties made the week past & full one indeed, although an air of in- formality pervaded everything. This week, #0 far as announced, which by the way, @stermines little, there will be more wed- @ings than anything else, though there will be two large card parties. On Monday evening Miss Faith Potter will entertain at cards for Mrs. Manley, who is the guest of Mrs. Dan Baum, jr., and for whom a number of affairs were given last week. On Tuesday will occur the wedding of Miss Irene Carter and Mr. Willlam McKell; that of Miss May Munger and Mr. Ham- mond Bell; the meeting of the Tuesday Buchre club. On Wednesday the Lang-Reiter wedding st Metropolitan club at 6:% o'clock; the wedding of Mr. George Pray and Miss Meta Drage, and a number of luncheons at the Country club, On Thursday Mesdames Goldstrom, Klein and Sampson will entertain at cards in compliment to Miss Wolf of Plttsburg, who in the guest of Miss Rothschild. Bomeone has gone so far as to say that mome people get engaged for the sake of announcing it and others for the wedding. | ‘While this may be a bit extreme, there has been evidence of late that leads one to be- lMeve that such an assertion may not be wholly without foundation; that some women do derive a lot of satisfaction from making such announcements, and rathe: than be denfed it, they will unhesitatingly sacrifice thelr own plans and other people's peace of mind. Not long ago & young woman gave a big Baturday evening dinner at the Country club which was to have been the occasfon for the announcing of her engagement. Unfortunately, the secret leaked out and soclety naturally looked forward to the dinner as one of the features of the week, some people even going 80 far as to con- gratulate the young hostess in advance. Finding that no one was going to be sur- prised by the announcement, she decided to furnish a surprise of another sort and to the wonder of everybody, no announeement was made, at least not that week—but it ‘was last week, and then very simply, by the young woman's mother. Another prospective bride whose confl- dence in her friends led her to exhibit her trousseau to a chosen fow will be marrfed within & fortnight. “Just to show people that they did not know what they were talking about” but the favored friends who saw the trousseau are wondering if she really means to wear the stunning fur- trimmed, go-away gown and carry the monkey-fur muff at this seagon of the year. Although soclety 1s fairly well assembled in town again with the exception of wed- ding cards, of which, by the way, there is & perfect deluge, few formal invitations of any sort are belng issued. When a week or 80 ago a hostess issued engraved cards for a morning affalr they created a real flutter and have been talked about ever since, for it has been weeks since any- thing more formal than a visiting card had been received in the way of an invi- tation. And even these have been the ex- ception, and nowadays the woman who has many engagements keeps a record of them beside her telephone. It is safe to predict, however, that it will, not be long before there will be things doing, for thers are weddings scattered along almost up to the holldays, and for every one of these, be it remembered, thers are given-in-honor affairs. And then, too, it can hardly be expected that the bevy of young women who were introduced !ast season can hold the title or privileges of debutantes very much longer. In fact, there is already be- ginning to be talk of a coming-out rece) tion for one of the girls who “finished' last spring, while several others will cer- tainly be introduced this season. As for the Country club, it is generally conceded that the season out there is ove and there is little prospect of any revival of interest before the closing night, when, of course, there will be a crush, as usual. Mr. Harry Drake Gibbs, who used to clr- culate soclally tn Omaha on occasional visits in past years, spent a few days In the city last week renewing old acquaint- anceship. Mr. Gibbs has given up his re dence in Buffalo, and is now on the In- structional staff of the University of Ore- gon. The only noticeable change in his personal appearance is caused by a Van- dyke beard he is sporting. confessedly to make himself look more professorial. He says the beard is two years o'd, but it does not show its age. Mrs. Willlam E. Annin, the widow of the popular “Billy,” passed through Omaha last week on her way to Washington. By the death of her husband Mrs. Annin and her children have been left largely on their own resources, and she is anxious to secure & suitable position in one of the govern- ment_ departments. It s needless to say she found plenty of sympathy and encour- agement among old-time friends who used to know her in the girlhood period when she figured prominently in local soclety as Miss Paddock. When last heard from by the relatives Dr. and Mrs. E. C. Henry were sojourning pleasantly In the old university town of Heidelberg. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. McDonald are back trom their European tour.

In response to a published protest by the Daughters of the Empire of Toronto, Can., against the proposed admission of a status of George Washington to 8t. Paul's cathedral, London, the Montreal Star sald recently: “It {s well for people of this spirit that they are ‘daughters’ of an em- pire, because they never would become ‘mothers’ of one. Empire buflders look to the future and never to the past.” It adds that “George Washington's countrymen of this generation are the greatest and 'best friends the empire now possesses outside of its own ring fence. The Daughters of the Empire will do us a splendid service If they will keep alive the traditions of our glorlous past, but they shouldgnot spoil it by binding our feet for the contests of the future with the prejudices and futile hates of other days."
