Show I' SI Saunterings HHiw The time will come when women will be al- iyn lowed to smoke in our big hotels, declares Tat- HJ ta!us in Town Talk, San Francisco's society jour- HM fial,.,aD.d who goes on to say that John Farley does V Ljj ' trot interdict the "practice in the public dining Vf fpom'ofthe Cliff House and that it is bound to fl I ' spread. H ' "Perhaps Some such rule will be made as in the M i ', big hotels of China and Japan where women are M , allowed to smoke in the dining room after half H tm'st eight. As soon as the clock points to that H M time out come the jeweled cigarette cases and M If' the weed is the regular accompaniment to the H i ' cafe noir. The only travelers in the Orient who H gape at this are the provincials from Akron and H Kalamazoo. I recall that when Mrs. Patrick H Campbell was here last she was requested not M', to' smoke in the dining room of the St. Francis. m ' A luncheon was given in her honor by Robin de H ! Grey, the financial representative of the Vander- H4 bilts and a brother of Lady de Grey. Mrs. Camp-. Hr bell is a confirmed smoker and when she produced H f her gold cigarette case toward the conclusion of the luncheon the maitre d'hotel hurried from the Hj room in considerable consternation and indited H; a polite note requesting her to desist. Who H knows but that when Mrs. Campbell next comes H to the city she will be allowed to smoke in pub- fl lie undisturbed? I feel quite sure that the trend H is all that way, despite the clamant vociferations H of the reformers of other people's morals." H H The month is drawing to a close with a prom- B iso of a lively fall. H ..The last ten days have witnessed a chirking H . up in all of the sets, the absentees are getting H ' back Into town or beginning to think of it, and ("- ' the opening of the" theatrical season is starting a round of patties that will quickly lead to the H larger affairs and the regular season, several H weeks earlier, probably, than for a year or two. H The week at the Country club has been inter- H estlng, mostly in small affairs. The annual tour- H nament for the Inter-mountain Tennis champion- H ship is on and from the galaxy of players here H from the east and west, the next six or seven H days at the club ought to help brighten up the H tail end of the summer there. The matches start- H e-l Friday afternoon and will continue until H Thursday or Friday of next week. H Interest centers in the finals in the singles be- H tween P. C. Bundy and Sam Neel, the present H - inter-mountain champion. Bundy played in the H semi-finals in the east early this week and is ap- H parently in splendid form. Neel is faster than he H has ever been, and the two will undoubtedly put H up some fast, hard matches. Hendricks, Bundy's H - teammate, helped the latter in the eastern and H western doubles, and Hackett and Alexander are H two more fast players who will be here to con- H tend in the doubles. Jim Salisbury is coming up H today from Los Angeles vrtth Sinsabaugh and H Duncan, two of the best players on the coast, and H these, withv Brown, Walker Salisbury, the Roberta H boys, Garnett and Meyers will form a coterie of 9 hard players who are apt this year to give the H club the best series of matches in the history of H the sport locally. H A half dozen affairs, stag and otherwise, have H already been planned for the visiting players, and H the club will likely Je a lively place during their H stay. The singles will probably be played off be- H fore the doubles are started. Most of the visit- H ing players will be guests at several parties at H tonight's dinner and at the hop afterwards. m H One of the largest parties of the summer was H the dance and reception given Tuesday evening H by Mr. and Mrs, J. J. Daly at their home on East H . South Temple street. Several hundred guests i were present and the lawns and verandas of the house were brilliantly lighted, and the floral decorations dec-orations profuse. Mr. and Mrs. Daly received and were assisted by their daughters, Mrs. T. Roy w 'fixl lEii MJaJL If WHIHl Phitt b) Undtrwud 6f Undtrwud, N. T.

Roberts, and Mrs. John C. Daly. . Unique in the history of all .entertainments ever given at the Country club was Samuel New-house's New-house's party of Friday night, when a thousand or more guests from town enjoyed his hospitality at a brilliant fete on the lawns of the club grounds i and the verandas of the club house. ' No more brilliant affair has ever been given at the club, and in a dozen different ways it took on a delightfully continental atmosphere. It is difficult for Mr. Newhouse to add anything to his. reputation repu-tation as a host, but Friday's party will increase as much, as anything coul that reputation. The club orchestra and F ;ld's band rendered two Bplendid programs, the club was stunningly decorated dec-orated and lighted, and on the big lawn a miniature minia-ture stage and arbor was erected where from nine until after eleven o'clock motion pictures were given, and with his guests in splendid humor, hu-mor, down from town trundled two or three motor mo-tor car loads of performers from the Orpheum and Shubert theatres. Miss Baker, prima donna of the Curtis company, and some sixteen show girls from the Shubert, added to the gaiety of the evening. Refreshments were served to the guests on the-lawn and at the club house, while the dances stretched along at the latter one after the other until motors and street cars began carrying Mr. Newhouse's guests back to town. It was the most notable society gathering of the year, and dozens of striking new toilettes were In evidence. W. J. Halloran has issued invitations for the marriage of Miss Halloran and Lewis Sowles, for Wednesday evening, September 14th, at 8:30 . o'clock at St. Mary's cathedral.

Rice, Miss Margaret Bache, Miss Bryan Houston, Miss Virginia Beatty, Mrs. Frank Knox, Mrs. Jackson McChrystal, Miss Minette Baer, Mis's Margaret Walker and Mrs. Wm. Reed. Miss Vera Edwards entertained at a Lagoon party Tuesday evening in honor of Miss Odell's guests, Miss Margaret Williams and Miss Elizabeth Eliza-beth Holdeman. Friday afternoon Mrs. Frederick C. Porter and Mrs. St. Claire Rivers entertained at a bridge tea in compliment to Mrs. Laura Young at the Ab-ner Ab-ner Luman home on East Second South street. The score of young girls who have helped make the summer merry are skirmishing with the dress makers for an early t H back td school, and another week will see most of them on the limiteds neading into the east for another season of Hoarding school gaieties. Miss Norrine Thompson and Miss Margaret Walker will leave, early in September for New York, where they will join, the members of their class in Miss Ben-net's Ben-net's school and with teachers and chaperones will sail September 20th for Italy, where they will have a three months' course in art, returning in time for 'the Christmas holidays. A delightful party of Monday was the bridge tea given in compliment to the Misses Margaret Williams and Elizabeth Holdeman by Miss Ra-mola Ra-mola King. Four tables of bridge "were played, and Miss Winnifred Brice and the Misses Irene and Gertrude Hanson assisted the hostess. - Miss, .Marl Odell received informally Sunday afternoon for Miss Williams and Miss Holdeman The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Charles A.
