THESE are the days when It Is
considered quits correct to say,
"There is so little doing. Every
one is either at the beach or moun
tain resort, or Is going." But In spite
of the fact that Portland is so sit
uated that mountain and beach are
near by and everyone is either away
or going away, there seems to be
something socially Interesting to rec
ord each day. Of course, everything
la informal, almost as informal as at
Lenten time, but far more fun than
are the early spring affairs, for the
Bummer entertaining includes so many
plcnio suppers, luncheons along the
highway or garden parties for groups
of congenial friends. Bridge seems
to have gained wonderfully in popu
larity this past week and nearly each
day the social calendar recorded at
least one bridge tea. As a rule in
formality prevailed.
Such attractive and interesting vis
itors have been here this season that
entertaiing for them has been a per
feet joy.
Mrs. Vincent Cook's luncheon Tues
day at the Waverley Country club was
one of the smart affairs of the week.
Old-fashioned summer flowers cen
tered and bordered the table,
and their arrangement 'In gracefully
shaped baskets was an artistic tri
umph. Covers were placed for the
Mrs. Vincent Cook presided at
luncheon Tuesday, honoring Mrs.
Carlton Walter Betts (Ruth Teal) and
Mrs. Frank V. du Mond.
Mrs. Harry Reed entertained Tues
day at a bridge party and tea. Fouf
tables of bridge were made up fot
the afternoon with additional guests
calling at the tea hour.
Miss Mary Gill was an attractive
hostess Monday, entertaining about
EO of her girl friends at tea. Assist
ing the hostess were the blisses Adele
and Louise Jones, Catherine Macey.
and Nan Montgomery.
In addition to Its artistic and dra
matic interest the production of "The
Forest Children" in the g-arden of the
H. C. Wortmau residence In Vista
avenue was a brilliant social success.
Relatives and friends of the young
people participating, patrons of art
and music and of the university who
are appreciative of the work and abil
ity of Mrs. Mabel Holmes Parsons and
many others who were eager to wit
ness the clever production, attended.
It was with pleasure that society
learned that the entertainment was to
be repeated Thursday.
For those magic moments when the
operatic fantasy was being presented
we all became woodland folk. We
were like Peter Pan believing n fair
ies, never wanting to grow up, en
chanted with the beauty of our sur
roundings, attuned to the music and
the melody that a master- hand had
wrought and feeling ourselves a part
of the spirit of youth that held sway.
The children in the play were to us
real fairies, real butterflies, busy,
buzzing bees, dryads and fairy-lore
folk come into their own and leading
us away from all sordid things.
Tip-top-toe, very softly the little
people came across the green grass
and loving parents and friends looked
on and admired and entered right
into the Joy of the play and the
dance. They were childreri of promi
nent Portland families and each was
just as lovely and dainty as a child
should be. The music lor tne piay
was written by Wirt Denlson and the
splendid orchestration was arranged
by Howard Barlow.
The premier production of . "The
Forest Children," given as a society
event and a benefit for a fund for the
University of Oregon woman s build
ing. was also a memorial for Miss
Camille Dosch and her nephew,
Fleurot, that a tablet might, be placed
in that building bearing their names.
Monuments that represent such a
wonderful expression of love and
beautv are inded rare and it was
with particular interest and devotion
that friends of the late Miss Dosch at
tended the operetta
Several dinner parties followed and
a few teas, one of these latter having
been given by Mrs. M. Donald Spence.
Mrs. John Pipes and Mrs. Harry Beal
Torrey, who entertained the princi
pals of the cast. Mrs. Torrey de
signed the costumes for the operetta
and Mrs. Spencer and Mrs. Pipes were
on the executive staff. Mrs. Llllie
Davey Thomas trained the children's
chorus. George Natanson was the big,
fearless hunter. Blanche Williams
Segerston and Louise Huntley were
accompanists and there was an or
chestra of about 27 pieces.
Socially, as has been said, the oper
etta was a success, but it should be
given in the auditorium some day,
where all the children might see it
for its beauty and its message will
become a part of all who witness its
production.
Mr. and Mrs. Edward E. Calvin and
their daughter, Miss Calvin,-left for
San Francisco last Monday evening.
Miss Colvln during her stay here was
the house guest of Mrs. Samuel C-Kerr.
Judge and Mrs. W. W. McCredie

A Fur Sale in summer seems strange to many people. They
think it odd to buy furs "out of season," forgetting that the
season of usefulness need not govern the period of purchase.
"When to buy?" has no relation with "When to wear?" Prac
tical economy is the governing factor.

STOLES, COATS, CAPES AND SCARFS
will save you from
25 to 33H
The fact that we take great care in the selection of all of the furs that come
into our store, paying special attention to getting quality skins at the lowest
prices, means that you can be assured of a saving if you buy furs here.
