' 405 Washington Street, at Tenth SUCH a gay week as has been meted out to society is surely a forerun ner of a sparkling social season. Brides and engaged couples have claimed the largest share of the social limelteht. but the visitors and debu tantes will hold the center of the circle this week. Practically all of the week's festivities are built around the Fratt family, who will arrlva Tues day from New York, and Miss "Helen Laid. one of the most attractive buds of Portland society, possessing that rare charm of grsciousnesa and per sonality that already have made her a mftlversal favorite. Portland brides are divided betweea June and October as the favorite month, thla particular month bringing forth an unusually Ian society waddings. In the fashion of weddings there are many changes. Of course, the con ventional white satin, so unbecoming, is still the favcH'ite material, al thou eh occasionally a bride with individuality and sufficient courage to stand by her choice In the matter of raiment blos soms forth in a daring gown showing a splash of pretty roloring. Most of them depend upon their bouquets for the necessary bit of coloring to relieve their monotonous white srarb. and upon the costumes of the bridesmaids. Yellow rapidly is srowinff in favor with the bridal parties for the at tendants this season, and as it ltghts up well, it is desirable especially for evening functions. Bridesmaids' costumes are far more up-to-date than in past years, and are Indicative fairly of the times. For in stance, one attendant at a lare.and fashionable wedding in New York wore a short, full skirt of light yellow satin edged with fur. a shirred eton Jacket, fur trimmed, and a small, hlch. brown plush hat. with silver plastron on one side, mixed with yellow flowers. Her bouquet, too, was unusual, being of mangolds. shaded. combined with purple pansies and yellow orchids. Again, the bride frequently chooses a draped and voluminous skirt, worn over a lacy underskirt, with a sugges tlon of pastel Coloring in the trim mlng. as well as silver, embellishments. glistening through the flimy fabric of the gown, it is a pretty and becoming model. Many of the buds -are planning to devote their apare time to ice skating, Hport togs. One of the leading maga zines of the East comments on the possibility of Ice skating eventually succeeding the dance as' the ruling craze. At least, elaborate experiments at castles-ln-the-Alr foretell such possibility, as the wonderful skating stunts are much more exciting than the eternal one-step and fox-trot.
