THE social aciivitics ut ihe tornia.
Winter season have only six weeks
yet to run, and when the sackcl1i
curtain of Lent ia rung: ,down, it will
mark the closing: of an unusually short
season. In fact, according to the church
calendar, 95 years will elapse before
another season of such limited measure
rolls around. Kaster bonnets are sched
uled for March 23. Thus, society in
crowding the days with gaieties, formal
and informal, Is adding another page
to the social history of 1913.
The New Year started off with a
rush, and the usual lull 'following the
holiday
festivities was apparent last
week. Informality nowadays stands
for social progressiveness, and the hos
tess who can offer the best attractions
in the way of entertainments, combined
with that much-sought-for spirit of in
formality, is the envy of the social
world.
The week just ended was decidedly
Informal, but a glance at the social cal
endar for the next few weeks shows
many smart affairs crowding each oth
er. The most important event to take
place this week is the wedding of Miss
Evelyn Wilson and Arthur Mxrray
Bherwood. Jr., which will take place
Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 at Trinity
Church.
The same evening Miss Claire Wll-
cox will be hostess at an informal dance
complimenting her house guest. Miss
Isabelle Tyson, an attractive maid from
Dixie land, whose home is In Tennessee.
Belles and beaux of the younger exclu
sive set have been asked to meet the
visitor. She will doubtless be much
feted during her stay and her presence
will add charm to the social life. A
number of small affairs will be given,
for the brides-elect this week. On
Wednesday, Mrs. Chester Griffin Mur-v
phy will preside at a luncheon for Miss
Maida Hart, whose wedding to Carl
Wernicke is to be the evening of Jan
uary 22. Miss Genevieve Thompson is
another who has planned a social com
pliment for this same bride-to-be.
Miss Milla Wessinger will also com
pliment Miss Hart and Mr. Werlncke
Friday evening, when she will preside
at a handsomely appointed dinner.
The subscription dance will be quite
as popular as the last. It will take
place Friday evening at the Hotel Mult
nomah. Several large dinner parties
will precede the ball and a few suppers
will follow it. The Military ball to be
given at the Barracks in Vancouver,
will be by far the most brilliant event
of the pre-Lenten period.
