TWO THE DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, sa, SATURDAY SEPT. 8, 1917. anon SEPTEMBER la a turning point in the year. Formerly, it wu the w" end of piny time, and society be gan to think of getting Lack in town and making plans for the winter. The first blush of autumn tells us to be prepared. Society folk who enter tain must perfect their plans; parents who have aspiring progeny to educate most select their schols and colleges, and get them ready for the winter mon t ha. Then we have the winter festivities; the state fuir, the various entertain ments for the war charities, bridge parties, and also the motor trips; to say nothing of golf and the scores ot pay little affairs that will take place at the new Country Club House upon its completion early in the winter. So here is a very attractive program for such leisure hours as we may still indulge in. We of course do not know what the winter will bring, but whatever the is sue may be. there certainly is no idea of curtailing all of our autumn and winter diversions.

This is society's tax, and it willingly pays it. However, wo should bewaro of being led into the mistaken belief that this winter is going to be one of penurious practices. Perhaps we shall not give as many largo functions as usual, but rather concentrate our efforts. We may, if the war continues, have more enter tainments , charity dances and bridges and less flummery. About z5 younger members of so ciety gathered nt the William P. Bab cock residence last niijlit to participate in the gaycties of an informal dance for which Miss Amelia Babcock was hostess, to honor her bouse guests, the atissos Grace Humphreys, Moryle Whit ney and Genevieve Patton of McCloa.v.
