to remain some months and hopes to be greatly benefited in health by the change iI it Mr and Mrs A B Jones have removed to the Templeton where they will be I pleased to see their friends An Assumed Virtue THE HERALD begs to be enlightened on one or two subjects in regard to reporting t society events FirstWhy is it that some people when they meet a society reporter at the door in a very freezingly polite and sometimes positively rude way say We do not want nor propose to have our names in the paper and yon cant come inland then proclaim from the house tops to all their friends and their friends4friends that they gave the reporter his walking papers and thus through every medium known with the exception of the newspaper circulate the I fact that they gave a party who all were there and what they said and did When people so emphatically announce an-nounce the fact that they wouldnt have their parties reported for anything in the world that they think it perfectly atoful that they cant give anything without the whole public knowing it etc etc etc why the gist of it all is they secretly dote on a mention of what they give and what they wear but that to have their friends know that weak ana vain spot in their character would be too mortifying to live through Thus figuratively speaking they put themselves on the rack and mentally men-tally ejaculate I have sacrificed my vanity for the sake of my modesty 1 and have 1 assumed a virtue though I have it not To be a society leader is what most women would like but of which there is nothing that they would rather not be accused of wanting to be and for this reason rea-son They lack confidence in the originality original-ity tact and power of entertaining as the majority of them in Salt Lake are well equipped in every other respect such as pretty homes plenty of room table appointments ap-pointments for making life decidedly enjoyable for their relatives and friends And not only that but it would be a very difficult thing to find more hospitable warm hearted refined generous and altogether delightful women than those living right here The town is so small and everyone is related to everyone else that society is not imbued with the spirit of cold selfishness it might otherwise be were the place larger and what in acity t would be merely a calling acquaintance is here ripened into warm friendship by the affability and geniality of the people Lake There is no doubt that society in Salt Lake is becoming more progressive and that its I refined and cultured influence is certainly being felt and appreciated yet the reporter i re-porter has observed several instances I wherein success has been harder to bear i than adversity of course tis always laughable Fortunately the species are i j in the minority As time goes on and we assume more metropolitan way to gain I information of a social character will not be the herculean task that it now is and I the position of a reporter will be better known and appreciated as the ideas in regard to his work that are entertained by different individuals is extremely ridiculous ridicul-ous By some he is looked upon as merely a machine with no feeling and is treated accordingly by others as having one continuous con-tinuous round of deadhead hilarious enjoyment en-joyment consequently occupying an enviable position |
