The last of the debutantes has been introdueed and these young women will re- ceive not a littie attention. The dancing | party given Wednesday evening at Hill side, the home of Mr. and Mre. Henry W. Yates, Introduce their granddaughter, | was un altogether enjoyable affair. Miss | Morgan s one of the most vivacious and | popular members of the younger set and | a charming acquisition to the ranks of | the debutantes | | There is'no doubt that Omaha is making ‘ marvelous strides in the business world, | with its new up-to-date garages and down- town skyscrapers, and new theaters. But along with this, the social side of the city 18 ai¥o more prosperous ‘and the entertain- ments more lavish. A delightful varlation in entertaining was given this week by Mr, | and Mrs. Ceorge A. Joslyn at thelr attract- ive home when Mr. Archer Gibson, the cele- | brated orgunist of New York City, gave | two musicdles. Fairyland could not be | more entrancing, than te sit in the com- | fortable library or music room of the Jos- | lyn home, gazing at the myrlads of or-| chids on the one sldé and the scarlet poin- | setta on the other and listening to the | inspiring strains of the wonderful organ | which Mr, and Mrs, Joslyn have had in-| stalled in thelr music room. The friends | of Mr. and Mrs. Joslyn, who heard Mr. Gibson, were given a rare treat, and the artist expressed himself as being | es- pecially pleased with the instrument, say- ing there was no better in the' United States. Mr. Gibson has given recitals at the homes of Vanderbilt, Carnegie, Fricke and others in the cast, and Is recognized as & judge of instruments dance has become very popular in Omaha. No one Is quite certain who introduced it here, but famong the first were memb s tie Omikron club. Much oviginality has been shown by the entertalnment gommittee of this club of young business nien, who have little time for eldborafiuk on these social affalrs. The cotilfion takes hours of planning by the leaders and the simple favors which | a sometimes glven without the cotillion figures form just as much amusement and but very little planning in the new dance. The favor dancing party s also very much enjoyed by the school children, who are 00 young to lead a German. Several of the largest parties for the young people during the holidays were favor dancing parties. there to The fa ot When Malam Saran Bernhardt visited America, her 200 trunks filled with cos- tumes, shoes and all sorts of feminine Let Us Prove it to You We have proven to scores of people that Dry Cleaning adds enough to the life of your clothes to more than pay for the cleaning say nothing of the improvement in your appearance It removes all dirt, grease and ms and makes them look like new.

M | college at | been | the guest of finery, quite startled the ocountry. That any woman should possess 300 or 400 pairs of shoes seemed marvelous. Now comes astounding fact that an Omaha woman possesses between 200 and 300 pairs of stun- ning footwear. Of course she has a dainty foot, that goes without saying, but the strangest part Is that she is a very woman, considerably above the average man In helgnt, and she is not slight. The woman with a tiny foot is usually one who weighs about 100 pounds, and who is so slight that a strong Nebraska wind would | blow her away. The owner of this inter- esting collection of shoes 1s a widow, who | has been a resident of Omaha for several | years. They say thers are scores of the most attractive little dancing slippers of all #hades and the buckles alone would make an interesting collection. Besides these are plenty of sensible high walking boots of different varieties and some to match each gown of an exceptionaily elab- orate wardrobe. Pleasures Pa and Mrs. L. H.
