Show I Saunterings I The smart ones have taken a good, long rest H during the week except for a theatre party or two H and a few afternoon affairs, and now they are H ready for more trouble, though still wondering H ' who it was under the impression that Thanks- H giving Eve was New Year's Eve and kept them H, busy frolicking for several days and nights H after the coming of the first of the holidays. H With their strength renewed they will begin H' DecembeT with t e usual Sunday night dinners H at the clubs anu restaurants, which are becom- H ing so popular, and on Tuesday will turn out en H masse to meet the Russian invaders, Pavlowa H and Mordkin, who will be seen that afternoon at H the Salt Lake theatre. The entire lower floor of H the house is practically taken at the present M time, and the matinee will look like a real first H night forxthere are any number of men who have H forsworn their work for that day sort of a B Russian-American holiday, as it were. After the M , entertainment there will be a special table d'hote H dinner served at the Commercial club from 5:30 M to 8:30, and a number of parties have been M formed to go there. H The coming of William Faversham and his 1. wife, Julie Opp, who have many old friends m among the more prominent Salt Lakers, will mean V more activity in society, and besides Mr. R. W. W Sloan and Mr. Howard Garrett will return from M Idaho. Their return to the city is always worth H mentioning, and with the arrival of the six stars H above named, there ought to be no lack of enter- H tainment. H1 M The growing practice among the ladies of H coming into the main dining room of a certain H club at lunch time alone, which is, however, en- fl tirely within the rules of the club, is becoming H the subject of much comment, and it would not H be surprising if some action were taken through H which, when escorted or unescorted, they will H be obliged to go to a separate room. Or in the H event that the freedom of the large room is given H them, there will probably be a separate room for H men exclusively. In a men's club, the co-educa- H tional feature has never met with great success, H though if it is to be followed out in the clubs H here, there should be separate rooms for one H side or the other. H H A beautiful luncheon was given on Wednes- H day by Mrs. Russell C. Woodruff at her home on H Twelfth East street. Covers were laid for four- H teen guests. This afternoon Mrs. Woodruff will H he the hostess at a bridge tea. H The first Assembly of December will take H place on Wednesday, December 21st, and from H then on until New Year's Eve, society will have its lily white hands full, and incidentally something some-thing besides its hands, mayhap. But a great boon has come to the social satellites satel-lites within the past month they have found a champagne so wonderful that there is no "next day" to it, and so it may be expected that the holidays will be more enjoyable than ever. At a luncheon for about fifty of her friends, Mrs. Joy H. Johnson entertained charmingly at the Commercial club on Wednesday, the gold room being used for the first time for a private affair. The golden yellow of beautiful chrysanthemums chrysan-themums to harmonize with the general decorations, decora-tions, was most effective, and if the luncheon which inaugurated the festivities in this particular particu-lar room is any criterion, it is but the forerunner of many another brilliant event. Already most of the tables have been reserved re-served at the Wilson, the Louvre, the Cullen and at the clubs for New Year's Eve, and an army of the gayest people in town will celebrate the passing of the year, thankful that it has gone and hopeful for the future. There will be innumerable innumera-ble small affairs and several large parties. Among the latter that to be given by Mr. R. W. Sloan for forty of his friends at the Louvre will be one of the principal events. Fred L. Tiden and Thomas Russell of the Nazimova company, who have a number of friends here, have been variously entertained by them during their stay in the city, and Mr. and Mrs. William Rock and Miss Maude Fulton have also spent a very busy week off the stage. The luncheon-dinner-supper and recital thing has been very much in evidence for all concerned. "There is a lot of snap to that girl." "Yes, she wears hobble garters." Mrs. J. A. Marshall was the hostess at an elaborate elab-orate tea at her home on Thirteenth East on Sunday Sun-day last for her daughters, the Misses Mary and Carey Marshall. They were assised by Mrs. Harold P. Fabien, Mrs. James A. Hogle, and the Misses Virginia Beatty, Marjorie Dey and Miss Howard of Park City.
