AK-SAR-BEN'S QUEEN UNDER DISCUSSION‘ Who Will She He and What Will She Wear~Lament of One Who Was Queen Once Her Life. Crests and Crusts. “Oh, Falr One, prythee share my crest,” The Beau besought the Belk “We'll lead the maddest, yest life," Her tastes he knew full well ‘ “Oh, Fair One, prythee share my crust, Quoth frugal Lad to Lass; “We'll plan, and scrimp, and save, A fortune we'll amass.’ until Alack! the pride of Beau and Belle Lies prostrate in the dust, For years of waste make years of want, And theirs is now the crust. Whereas the simple Lad and Tass Have feathered well their neat, And since Dame Fashion thus decrees, They've lately bought their crest ~—Margaret Hofbrook Smith In New York Times. In the main the last week has been more than quiet, though it could searcely be called dull, for there is always left the privilege of calllng and while there are enough people In town to make up a calling list there is little danger of mo- notonv—provided it does not last too long. The week started ‘out - promising enoug! it needed but a day of sunshine to warm the Country club into favor again and send a bunch of the tashionable folk out to the links for a game. In the Afternoon there was a mixed foursome match, in which ten couples participated, the game being followed by a dinner and dance, even If it was Monday. Tuesday brought out another crowd that reminded one of summer, but Wednesday was the red-letter day of the week. In spite of the rain, the club house was filled with women who proposed to exercise the ladies’ day priv- fleges to the end. It is no secret, how- ever, that several hostemses were com- pelled to Nl out their guest lists at the eleventh hour and even then all the luncheon parties had not the number for which plates had been ordered, for pop- ular as the Wednesday luncheon is, ail the women were not willing to make the sacrifice necessary to get there on some occasfons. This week there will ba more weddings, that of Miss Lilllan Snell afd Mr. Al- bert Egbert, which occurs Wednesday aft- ernoon, and that of Miss Elma Rothechild and Mr. Harry Hirsh of Des Moines, which takes place at 5:30 Thursday afternoon at Metropolitan club, being the largest. Speaking of weddings, recalls the fact that three more dates have loomed up on the | calendar, red-letter dates, the first being September 30, the second October 8 and the | third October 14, and then, later on, In| December, probably the latter part, there | will be another blg wedding. And all of this recalls a bit of chat that has been going the rounds about an en- gagement announcement - that the young woman concerned, who, by the way, lives over in Worthington Place, insists has never been announced at all. She does not deny that there is an engagement, at least mot to everybody, but as the young man in the question has told it to his friends and it has been announced in the papers of a' city across the river, where he resides, her friends are not taking her denial altogether seriously. ‘With the Ak-Sar-Ben ball less than a month off, soclety Is beginning to wonder who will be the queen this year. One thing seems safe to predict, and that is that the selection will not be made from the list of prospective brides, for those popular younsg women have quite enough to think about and plan In the way of gowns for their trousseaus without taking upon themselves the responsibllity of a queen's gown. None of them would accept the honor, it Is said, even It it were offered them, which fact, while it makes a big hole In the list of eligibles, still leaves the debutantes—and the prospective debutantes, who, by the way, are beginning to loom up on the soclal horizon in a manner that will make some of the girl who have had things pretty much their own way, look to their laurels before long. The selection has been made from among the prospective debutantes in the past, and there is no' particular reason why it should not be again. But to go back¥to the prospective brides and their objection to an homor that al- most any woman might be expected to covet, there In method in It as is Indicated Ly the lament of & former queen, who said the other day: “My coronation gown fs a veritable white elephant. I can't wear it and 1 can't have it made over, for every- body would be sure to say, ‘That is the gown she wore when she wag queen.’ It is far too elaborate to wear for any other oc- casion, 80 I have never worn It since, ex- cept to the ball the following year, and | then, between having it inspected at close range and trying to move ahout with the long court train, T spent a wretched evem- Ing. [ suppose there will be some satis- faction in showing it to my grand daught- | ers and telling them of the night I wore it, but things don't become heirlooms for a | generation or #0, 8o to me it fs chiefly a | source of regret that this, the most ele- gant thing of my whole wardrobe, is 8o ut- | terly useless to me.” The last week has seen a genear! exodus of school folks who. with many a sigh and not a little expectation, and no end of sofa cushions, racequet cases, rugs, pictures and like trophles of the summer have been packed off to school. The list is a long one, tao, longer than usual this fall, and the mother who has had & daughter or two to get off has been a busy woman Indeed. Not more 8o however, than the mothers of another set of girls who have had sewing to be done. In fact, there has been more talk about trousseaus this fall than any one can remember ever having | heard before, and the local modistes have | been taxed to accomplish all that has been the late dates of some of the weddings are said to be of necossity rather than of choice handsomest outfits of all is being made in Chicago but soclety Is not going to see it after all for this 1f there is anything in signs, one couple who were launched on the matrimonal sea during the week have a great deal In their favor. - The wedding was at one of the fashionable clubs of the oity, and just cs the hush fell upon the comany assembled and the opening words of the marriage ser- vice were begun, up among the flowers and bridal party, a cricket began to ohirp and throughout the ceremony this very audible om of good continued Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J.
