They jingle their dollars, talk “sporty,” gamble, drink and dissipate their morals, all under th 1 at su things constitute the “hall mark” of It is not a fact that the majority of to-d ens this community bel » the “swagger” class described above Or are really in sympathy with it The greater number of those » have prospered in Seat tle have hewn their fortunes out of the wilderness of yesterday and are not of the sort that follows vice as a pastime for lack of better pursuits Puget Sound “society” as t is mad. persons thrown together in somewhat pr with the ill-bred and Joud-mouthed still in evidence The social life of any city is but a reflection of the char acters of the people who live in it. There are “sets” and “circles” of all kinds among the rich, the well-t poor. People of kindred tastes and circ gravitate together, forming congenia and enjoyment stances The moderately well-to-do and the poor in an American ttle inc! city like S ude many of the most refined and like persons to be found—quiet and self-respecting, who seek no notoriety, but are happily content to live their lives among good friends and neighbors And again, there are many rich pec well-bred ha excesses which mark the careers of men set.” The latter a talking—who ser the ones who cial functions, and when not drinking or gambling are spend ing most of their time in telling malicious stories about each other.
