Show If Social Saufr tarings . I Bit In a futile attempt to come out of the ennui Hr that threatened to hover over society early in Hf the week anil which later made good its threat, Hi those who by birth, breeding, brains, or some of 'm those attributes peculiar to the climber anywhere, M went to the theator Tuesday night and altogeth Hu I er made up rather a representative audience,. HJ Eut that was the last seen of any one of thorn at H night during the week, with the possible except Li tion of a few who dropped in at those informal Wt ? affairs, which- happen so regularly at the same Hf places that the novelty tiaa grown off except for H. half a dozen who drop in together and go home H in pairs and make the party an excuse for a tryst.

The prize which was B extremely artistic in design contained, among B other features, a cautious stork standing on one B foot and apparently undecided as to whether it B should go ahead or back up. As one lovely lady B remarked, upon glancing at the prize, "The bird & wasn't quite sure as to -whether its new-found B owner said "coo," or "shoo." Some hostesses are H so careless. B to & & B At a recont cotillion, Leigh Murray dlstln- B guished himself by cutting a number of figures, H not in accord with those outlined by th:3 leader, B but Murray says it wasn't his fault. B It is a well known fact that among those who B attend the most exclusive events in Pittsburg, 16 B Is considered the thing to wear rubbers over m ohq's dancing pomps. They prevent a , sudden H slide to second in the whirl of the waltz, enable H one to approach a desired partner noiselessly, Hft and are good for a lot of other things that might H' cause discomfort on a cold night. H It is hardly probable that Mr. Murray's inno- B ; vation will be widely copied, but during his brave HL" try-out of this latest fad, it redounded to his H credit that a number tried to copy his figure B eights, but only with moderate success. B B The good stork visited the Ernest Bambergers B early in the week, leaving a welcome young man B to add to the joy of the Bamberger menage. H w w B Mrs. Arthur V.
