And it really is regret- table that women with so brave a cause and so earnest in their endeavors to make that cause a success should risk the wrecking ©f their enterprise upon the rocks of dissension. It is a law of nature that where harmony prevaileth not, there success flourisheth not. However, the women of the Confederacy are surely too well bred to maintain a feud of this character for any length of time, and it is to be hoped that the white flag of peace will fly from the ramparts of both chapters before the ball at the erans, | \ i | 7SS | | L 4 Al L THEL, %“{ ARNOLLD GENTHE—= Z. * < T o W, e S Palace takes place, which is set for the 23d. The proceeds of this affair—which will be the first big ball of the season— will be devoted to the endowment of beds in some available hospital for the men who wore the gray. If for no other rea- son than this the affair should be a suc- cess. But as a social function it is the introductory ball of the season and a brave showing of pretty women is prom- ised. The list of patronesses are from the original chapter the Albert Sidney John- ston, and include: Mrs. Alfred Hunter Voorhies, Mrs. A. W. Foster, Mrs. «Wil- liam M. Gwin, Mrs. William B. Herrin, Mrs. Willlam B. Collier, Mrs. Selden 8, Wright, Mrs® J. Garber, Mrs. Eleanor Martin, Mrs. Ynez Shorb White, Mrs. Wil- Ham L. Duff, Mrs. Willilam B. Pritchard and Mrs. Wakefield Baker. Mrs. Voorhies is in receipt of a letter from Mrs. Martin assuring her that so importgnt a function will: hasten her re- turn to California. The debutantes—bless them—are plan- ning a merry time, and it is a safe predic- tion that they will harvest what fun is going. Wi pray, is fitted to pass judg- ment upon the new ballroom better than they? And they are frank enough fo say what they think. Therein lies the differ- ence between buds and belles—the formeér says whiit she thinks, and the latter thinks what she says. IR All hail the Stanford girl! In addition to her devotion to tennis, handball, hockey, golf, basket ball and general gym work, she is going to introduce row- ing—rowing, girls, just as they do at Wel- lesley. A‘large barge is about to be purchased and before many moons will be riding on the university lake. The men’s quarters will be moved to the bay when the season is on, and the girls will then hold sway over the water campus. Now, ve maider- with plpestem arms, think what this means. Likewise, ye maids with hollow chests and defielent busis. It means a development of just those muscles which from disuse or misuse have become atrophied. It also means that within a couple of months’ rowing over the blue that those scarecrow sis- ters can venture into a ballroom without exciting the sympathy of onlookers. For if there is any phase of social life that is warranted to excite pity in the hearts of those capable of it it is the appear- ance in evening dress of a ‘girl whose medulla oblongata (do you know what that is?) threatens to come through her For the thin girl who persists upon lecollete gowns there is nothing like row- ing to’save the feelings of her friends, k557 / / Y R R - o 'fi‘.":{k‘ 'v“u',l % THREE SOCIETY GIRLS OF SAN FRANCISCO WHO BY THEIR GENUINE AND INTELLIGENT INTEREST IN CHARITIES PROVE THE INCORRECTNESS OF THE POPULAR CONCEPTION OF BUDS AND BELLES AS BUTTERFLY CRWTURES WITHOUT SERIOUS PURPOSE OR THGUGHT. KA She will ever’ surprise herself at the dwindling of the unhappy hollows that look like miniature Indian mortars in her neck, and- her arms will become a joy both to herself jand her. friends. ‘Why don’t the society girls follow the lead of Stanford and adopt rowing for a pastime, instead of so much golf?- The amusement is just as keen and the bene- fits accruing even more desirable. e That was rather a bizarre thing for Mrs. Hugh Tevis to do—to order a yar or two of topaz (or is the plural tepazes?) from Mr. Marcher of Los Angeles, and then when completed and sent to her to two yards of topaz (topazes?). This little matter might lead the phills- tines to conclude that the little lady is somewhat given to impulse and impetu- osity. Perhaps it was these little traits that brought out the *“‘conduct unbecom- ing an officer” in the young naval officer who visited her and her sister in New York, when it is said—shocking to relate —that he sat down on the arm of her sister's chair. Now that certainly was reprehegsible conduct sn any gentleman, but in a naval officer it was scandalous. So the enraged little widow betook her to the dommander and preferred charges against the demonstrative defender of the flag and asked that he be dismissed from the servi The commander, young fellow under comforted the little widow home, promising to take hardly blaming the such provocation, nd sent her up matter immediately. No cou yet has been declared, but it e to s that the young son of Mars will sit on a chair all His own when he calls on Western widows again. oo This has proved a prolific week for wed- dings. Prominent among these were the nuptials of Miss Elizabeth Young, daugh- ter of Lizutenant General Young, chief of staff, U. S. A., to Captain J. R. Hannay of the Twenty-second Infantry The wedding took place in St. Thomas Episcopal ~Church, Washington, on Wednesday last, and was witnessed by the President”and Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss Alice Roosevelt all the prominent people in army circles in the X The bride, during her stay at the Pre- sidio, had endeared herself to a wide cir- cle of friends both in and out of the army, and her happy union with the man of ‘her choice—her own choice—is afford- ing much pleasure to her friends.

Flanked by feathery ferns, the groups of dainty maids in dainty gowns was a pretty sight to see — and the men didn't deny themselves that privilege either, for they stared in a manner that small boys would call “rubbering.” i Miss Christine Pomeroy will make her debut on the 31st, Halloween, at the home of her mother.

Wealth, beauty and breeding, and ail that they stand for, were symbolized in the attendant ceremonies. The decorations were rarely beautiful, overelaborateness having been studiously avolded. Green, the most scothing and therefors the most pleasing color, pre- vailed. The reception which followed the ceremony was a pleasant affair—and re- ceptions at weddings are usually lachr mose and consequently stupid—but this proved rather exceptional.

The clubrooms in the Y. M. C. A. bulld- ing were: thronged with members and guésts, who were graciously received by the president, Mrs. George Law Smith, and the reception committee. The hospi- tality of this club is. a matter of much comment among club women, but the se- cret is not difficult of solving® It is the personality of the presiding officer tha: mwakes the atmosphere of the club what it is, and nothing can be more potent <4 4 than that very thing to render a clu» worthy of its name, for it is within the walls of one'g club that ene looks for goodfeilowship, d it is goodfellowship— in its highest and best sense—that makes for the lncguu of club life. - 4
