Tt matters very Mittle whether this society life is bounded by the Fifth Avenue and Park Avenue sections, whether it is & Washington Heights clique, a Flat- umn circle or the society of a peram- bulutor parade along some side street if it is HER key to happiness. Society may mean the rustle of silke and satins, the fragrance of French perfumes: cut flowers, receptions, dances, balls, the coming- ba of debutantes; it may mean card a and rties, jazz parties or week-end af- airs in the suburbs; to some women it may be only a perambulator parade where three or four housewives take the babies for an outing every after- noon. But society is society, and to many women it is THE KEY to hap- piness. “Society is one of women’s Greatest outlets, the circle about which many women move and have their being,” declared Mrs. Lewis B. Woodruff, one of New York's daintiest and most charming so- ciety women and a playwright of considerable note. ‘Society is a ‘woman's 0; a little refreshing retreat in the desert of life.’” Blonde, petite, very blue of eye and fwery, soft of voice this charming ‘woman and I sat in the drawing room of her home, No. 14 it 68th Street, fand spoke of society and the happi- mess it brings to the hearts fmany Women. “The old-fashioned society woman with ber high handshake and af- fected mannerisms has quite disap- peared,” laughed Woodruff. “We still have butterflies, ‘women who love to splurge about in dainty gowns and flash their jewels, but they are social butterflies with a brain, While social life gives them the foremost pleasure of their life they have also made it a work, business. Society to-day ishes much." "Of course the war has brought bout this change,"’ 1 remarked “Yes, that was the changing point In the life of the average Society woman,’ agreed Mrs. Woodruff. “Ever since the days of canteen work society women have become / more democratic. They have wanted take some part in business, in Made, in literary or musical fields. Society to-day is but an opening for other work."’ And while we are speaking of so: ial butterflies with a brain, a phra. which Mrs. Woodruff herself ortsi nated, it is apropos to mention that Mrs. Woodruff is the author of sev eral novels, ‘Hurray for the G1 and “Just Becaus a melody comedy of x0 M social a accom- —t which has just made its debut at the Pte Academy of Music in Northampton, ray Mass. ' “Society has always been a greal ~ “Inspiration, a big outlet to me," ad- ) mitted Mrs, Woodruff. “And 1 be- thy » eve that many women feel that same i r sway. When I speak of society being @m osais in a woman's life I mean « retreat where she may find all the in life which please her. The who indulges in social life, mingles with other people in her bet, feels as though she is like the wa wa busy bee sipping honey from the flow: ers. She gets all the sweetness and folor out of life. “And the society woman of to-day ‘well be likened to the busy bee," Mrs, Woodpuff, ‘‘for she has tasks to perform through her connestions. Charity and all of welfare work constantly take time, money and energy.

To the ‘woman of means charity and welfare work are a keen satisfaction. To the woman who goes in for bridge-whist and week-end affairs her social circle unfolds a new world. Through her love of so¢ial environment she gains the keys to a brighter, happier existence and, greatest of all, she lifts herself up from the everyday condi- tions of home-life or a bustling office. She steps into another sphere and comes forth from it as refreshed and invigorated as if she had bathed in the Fountain of Youth. One of the best definitions for so- ciety in the dictionary is ‘‘A body of persons associated for a common pur- pose or object." Tt is this common purpose, this blending together of ideas and ideals, which has made so- ciety one of the greatest keys of hap- piness to so many women's hearts. Society is a woman's “uplift key” and even the social-climber aims high! \ The last interview in this series witl te with Sally James Farnham, the voted woman sculptor who is making © bust of President Harding.

Of course you would never guess this if you looked at tho small clreular outlets, dressed with tomato sauce and garnished with cress, which I offer you at my luncheon, But pea- nuts is peanuts, and this meat-equiva- lent dish is nothing else but that valu able nut ground fine, mixed with vari- ous cereals, moulded into a “loaf” and served in many guises.

But my guests like it, the children cry for it (a la a well-known infant “medicine), and it is delicious. I can think of no better-word than this poor, overworked word ‘dell- clous''—say it slowly, please—lenten loaf. We make it as a real ‘‘loaf,’’ served whole with tomato sauce; we cut it in thin slices and broil it; we fry it and add onions and peppers until it looks like a steak, after all; and once in a while we pour over it 4 cream sauce Many of these vegetarian dishes ave worth while trying in this pre- Master period, Lentils, too, make i line loaf, if boiled down, mashed and baked.
