A 8 RECENTLY as a fortnight ago
there were those who ventured
the opinion that there had never
been bo many people remaining
v In town as this season. An ever
Increasing number of automobiles with
the outings and picnics and Jaunts they
make possible was given as the reason.
But that was two' weeks ago. Since
then the beaches and the mountains
, have played havoc with, the social rarik
and file and if the almost unsullied
condition of this week's calendar may
be taken as the criterion Portland so
ciety is divided Into many parts.
In this connection It is interesting to
note some of the summer information
which the Social Register gives of the
18.348 families, from" all the large
cities in the. United States, concerned in
Us columns. There are 6891 families
located Inland; 4613 are by the sea
shore; 878 are found at bankers' ad
dresses abroad apparently the same
number as last year; 184 are on" their
yachts; 862 families have gone abroad
since April 1. a decrease of 20 per cent
compared with last year; 237; families
have arrived and 660 persons have
married since April as compared with
743 of last year.
Of those at inland resorts, 60 are
found at Lenox, 299 at Bernardsville,
Morrlstown and Short Hills; 133 in the
Adirondack, 164 in Canada, 101 at Bar
Harbor, 1582 at New England coast
resorts, 400 at Newport and Narragan
sctt (a marked decrease over last year),
644 on the north shore of the sound, in
"Westchester and Connecticut, 428 on
the north shore of Long island, 695 on
the south shore of Long island. 250 at
the Hamptons and 613 on the Jersey
const.
Dining the past week the tennis
tournament at Multnomah club held its
own in Interest, although there was
little entertaining incident to it. A
charming list of patronesses and their
assistants presided over the refresh
ment marquee from day to day. Two
large dances for debutantes at Waver
ly Country club, a smart tea or two
and several luncheons rounded out an
Interesting, if limited, number of af
fairs for the week.
Captain and Mrs. Gordon "Voorhles
entertained with a delightful dancing
party Friday ' evening at Waverly
Country club for their debutante
daughter. Miss Margaret Voorhles,
whose debut was a recent event. Bril
liant masses of varicolored old
fashioned garden iftowers were the
decorations used in all the rooms. Miss
Voorhles made a picture of girlish
loveliness as she greeted her guests.
'She wore a beautiful creation of blue
gray chiffon combined with lace. The
: skirt was fashioned with flounces of
chiffon and the lace, the latter elabo-
rated with tiniest of pink ribbon rose
buds. Chiffon formed the foundation
of the bodice with lace over it. Miss
VoorhleB carried a wonderful old
fashioned bouquet of tuberoses, sweet
peas, Cecil Brunner roses and baby-
. breath.
Mrs. Voorhles was smartly gowned
In white with the relieving touch of
color a stunning girdle of blue. Mrs.
Margaret Biddle, who also received,
wore white chiffon with a swagger
little overcoat draped up at the waist
line with a wreath of flowers. Miss
Marion Hart Voorhles, sister of Miss
Voorhles, was charming in light yel
low silk. Her flowers were orchids
and Cecil Brunner roses. Over 100
guests enjoyed ithe evening with Miss
Voorhles. 1
.
Waverly Country club has seldom
presented so beautiful a picture as on
, Tuesday evening, when Wirt Minor
was host for a dancing party compli
menting Miss Ruth Teal, the debutante
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph N.
Teal. Miss Ella Stephens planned the
decorations, which were the source of
many admiring expressions. In the
drawing room, where the guests were
.received, the. hanginaf in pastel shades
of mulberry formed the color motiff,
arid the mantle was banked with blos
soma of harmonizing tones. Tall vases
and baskets of the same flowers were
placed about the room. The immedi
ate portion of the hall leading into the
drawing room was done in pin and
white with Shasta daisies, gladioli anS
carnations. Dark red gladioli were
massed in the hall approaching the
ball room and passing through the hall
i Into the dining room the decorations
were huge vases of golden band lillies
and pink gladioli. In the dining room

sweet peas, baby breath and aspara
gus fern, while baskets of the same
flowers centered the tables. Yellow
and white predominated . In the upper
hall. Receiving with the host and his
honor guest, were Mr. and Mrs. Teal
and Mr. 'Minor's niece. Mm Herbert
