Show I SAUNTERINGS 1 B THE friends of Charlie Stanton, who is now Brigadier-General C. B. Stanton, were more B than pleased to hear of his well earned 'promo- B tion. Charles was formerly city recorder and B county clerk In Salt Lake, later joining the army B and going through the Philippine campaign, and B upon his return was stationed first at San Fran- B Cisco and then at Governor's Island, New York. B He was then sent abroad with the American ex- B peditionary forces on General Pershing's staff. B' In Paris, shortly after their arrival, when the B American officers assembled to honor Lafayette, B General Stanton was called upon for a speech, B which he opened with the words, "Lafayette, wo Bi are here." The depth of meaniug in that one sen- Bj tence has made it immortal. While it was at-' B, tributed to General Pershing, it was really said B by General Stanton. B' Besides being a Brigadier-General, Charlie B Stanton is one of the best of good fellows, his B ready wit, whole-heartedness and ability to mix B on all occasions make him one of the most popu- B lar and sought after speakers at every gathering B of fun-makers where his presence is available. B MR. AND MRS. C. E. GROESBECK, now of New York, but formerly of Salt Lake, have B spent the week here and will remain for about B ten days more. During their stay they have been B' quietly entertained by a number of old friends B who have given some smart little dinners in their B honor, and Mrs. Groesbeck has been the guest of B honor at an afternoon affair or two. Bt While living here only a comparatively short B time, thoy became extremely popular and their H( departure caused general regret in society and B club circles. Both express themselves as being B very happy, even for a short period, to renew ac- B quaintancos, and enjoy the good sunshine and B fresh air of the west after several months of life B in the big city. fl LOUIS C. CATES, who with his wife, who was , formerly Miss Helen GilliBpio of this city, B are very popular locally, is known as the Repub- B lican boss of Pinal county, Arizona, and general B manager of the Tom Campbell gubernatorial cam- B paign in Arizona. As manager of the Ray Con- B solldated, he occupies a prominent place in the B mining world, but as a political factor, we be- B lieve this is a new departure for Mr. Cates. How- B ever if he goes at it with his customary energy, B he will probably be highly successful. H DOWN in Arizona the girl soda dispensers are now wearing white trouBerettes and, accord- B Ing to Dunbar's Weekly, in the places where this B innovation is in vogue the baldheaded soda trade B is being monopolized. Certainly. It would be an B excellent idea if put into local effect, for with B the theatres all closed and most of the usual ex- B citement on the blink it would be really more re- B freshing than the soda to be waited upon by a B cluster of Yama-Yama girls. H A FEW evenings ago one of our younger so- ciety lights, who had evidently collided with B a bottle of boot, was waving down Main street in B the Saturday night crowd. Upon approaching a B friend he asked, "Can you tell me where the oz- Bl zer side of the street ish?" "Right over there," B replied his informer. "You musht be mistaken," B said the gilded youth, "man over there jusht told B me it was over here." H CAPTAIN AND MRS. WALTER E. BUCHLEY have been visiting Mr .and Mrs. J. C. Hooper B during the past fortnight.

JOHN S. CRITCHLOW was entertained at dinner din-ner by his Wife the other evening in honor of his sixty-ninth birthday.

JUST think of it, girls, we are going to dance again! There has not ben a real honest to goodness dance for so long, outside of the little informal affairs at the Country club, that most of the people have forgotten how to dance. It is being planned for Thursday evening at the Hotel Ho-tel Utah and Is under the auspices of the younger young-er members of the (War Work depot. However, there will be nothing doing if the Influenza quarantine quar-antine is still on. Providing that is over there will surely be a mob in attendance, but otherwise other-wise the dance will be indefinitely postponed. Let us all hope that by that time no quarantine will bo necessary in Utah or anywhere else. Tom Nolan, the counsellor, for years kept the' New York bar laughing at his drolleries. Once he was arguing a case in behalf of some sailors, and in the midst of an exhaustive display of nautical nau-tical lore he was interrupted by the court.
