Old Adam called her wo-man; But when she woo'd with love so kind, Ho pronounced her woo-man. But now with folly and with pride, Their husbands' pockets trimming, The ladies are so full of whim, The people call them whim-men. THE DEBUTANTE PLAYS BRIDGE. Let's see what's trumps? O, Grace, your hat's a dear. And so becoming, too. Girls, did you hear That Clara Gotrox is engaged at last, And to a Count with a dreadful past And not a penny to his titled name? (I dote on bridge; It's such a clever game. Let'3 see what's trumps?) There's Catherine over there, And, entre nous, I hear she dyes her hair And paints; but I might, too, with such a face! (Oh, partner, did I really trump your ace?) Who is that freak three tables to the right?, I saw her at the Wilbur-Brownes last night; Some parvenu, no doubt, and, good ness knows, I think a blacksmith must design her clothes. (Are hearts or diamonds trumps? Oh, that's a fact, It's clubs..) Some girls are so devoid of tact; That Carleton creature in the last year's hat Just makes me mad as mad she's such a cat, And nearly snaps your head off if you don't Keep absolutely dumb; of course I won't. Oh, girls, Jack's so devoted It's a joke; He's quite my shadow. What! Did I revoke? Well, anyway, I think it's mean to tako Three tricks from me for just that small mistake. Bridge bores me frightfully, I'm bound to say, Though Jack says it's astounding how I play. Why will some hostesses invite such frumps? Oh, dear my lead again? Let's see what's trumps? Puck.

THIS WEEK has been reported "very full" socially each indi vtfllinl. wllllo nf Vi an ma Hmn supposing It to have been very quiet for everyone to whom the announ cement was made. This Is account ed for by the fact that no largo events are taking place In Lent, but small "evenings" and "afternoons" with just a few in attendance "my most intimate friends, you know" have been noticeable this week and everyone thinks that no one else did anything. Just as sure as Lent advances, those who have the habit of something doing all the time, must soak their accustomed re creation and the result is a growing number of these small affairs, and toward the latter part of Lent, the "small affairs" generally gather courage and develop Into quite pres entable society events. The coming week will be much livelier. Already there is evidence of the awakening. Society Is prepar ing to lay aside sack cloth and the ashes will be turned over Ao the gar bage man. Several small "affairs" are scheduled now and others are in prospect. Maids and matrons are requested to assist in keeping the record by advising of the Editor of all little social events that the re ports may bo completed. You must not forget that The Times is your paper and that part of your share In Its welfare is a little effort now and then as well as the contribution of cash. Wo trust you will pardon this "talking shop" but The Times desires very much that you not only feel a good paper and interesting but that you also prove your sincerity of purpose by your good work. To change the subject abruptly perhaps the readers of The Times will bo interested in the following story and possibly some of them would prefer this manner of handling social Items, If so we will bo glad to receive suggestions to that effect. "Young man," said the editor to the new reporter, "you lack caution. You must learn never to state a thing as a fact until it has been proved a fact. You are apt to get us Into libel suits. Do not say, 'The cashier stole tho funds: say, 'The cashier who is alleged to have stolen the funds.1 That's 'all. Oh, get something about that First Ward social tonight. The next day, half-way down tho social column, the editor saw tho fol lowing cautions paragraph: 'It Is rumored that a card nartv was given last evening to a number of reputed ladles of the First Ward. Mrs. Smith, gossip says, was tho hostess and tho festivities are re ported to have continued until 11:30 in tho evening. The alleged hostess Is believed to be tho wife of John Smith, the socalled low-priced gro cer.' " Miss Nann Smith, Miss Adeline Smith and Mrs. Irwin who have been visiting on tho Bay for several weeks will leave on tho Nairn Smith for San Francisco, Saturday, April 25th. Several hostesses have enter tained for tho Misses Smith and many have regretted not meeting Mrs. Irwin who has been ill ever since her arrival. The A. N. W. Club was entertain ed by Mrs. John Bear at her resi dence on Pine street, Thursday, April lGth. Elaborate refreshments were served and a most enjoyable afternoon spent by the largo num ber who attended. Tho subject of installing a public drinking foun tain was discussed and also tho ad vislbllity of inaugurating a cleanlng up day. The club will meet with Miss Susie Elckworth next Thursday afternoon. Miss Mary Ethel Boone of Sum ner and Mr. Loienzo Dow Belieu of MarshHeld, were quietly married on Thursday evening at tho homo of Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Kardell of South Marshfleld. A few guests witnessed the cere mony which was performed by Rev. W. R. F. Browne of the Methodist Episcopal church. The bride is tho daughter of Captain Boone of Sum ner, and has lived on Coos Bay since her birth. Tho groom is a lineman in the employ of the local telephone Com pany and has lived In Marshfleld for several years. Miss Boone wore a v ''' pni dress trimmed in laces, while the groom wore tV1 cmventloi'il black. The decorations were profuslve of Oregon grape ferns and huckleberrv. A dainty liinc'ionn was served and enjoyment lasted far into tho morn ing. Mr. and Mrs. Belieu began housekeeping immediately in their new home in So'ith Marshfle'd.
