Show I IK Socially Inclined I''iiJlH Tlie craze for skating is about the only thing iirlBfllH tnat is roally in evidence these days. Instead yv'-lwiB of aoaUnS it; Js steadily increasing, and now r ' hhIH everybody - is on skates when last year it was I 'SifllH culy the man who had fallen from the water t HlH wagon. The fever is at high pitch now, and the r iliSIH prospects are that the fad will take the place 01 tliUHi dancing during the season, and the new club ,;M gSH replace the more dignified but less enjoyable for- ji jjgBHf malities of by-gone years. ImIhIH Speaking of skating and who is not? there i V WSfflm are a ereat number of people in town with short 6 'I BBfln memories1. Recently one of the younger matrons 1 UnflH sal(1 somothing about remembering the craze for IIhBhI tn0 rollers wllen she was a small girl. She was ' n1IHHB oyQd as a curiosity as not a woman in the crowd M 8R Iiad GVGr heard of such a thing till this year. llH How strange that the days of twenty-one are so i 'iw ililiB History repeats Itself. The man In the east ' 'mI WtKBE ern nart of town who after a night at the club Jnlnfll wItu frIends a ew gIn flzzes a dozen high balls, ' 'Upl SfilH two samnles oi a cocktail and a. few cold bottles, J ' iiHH nte onG lone roast beef sandwich, was unaccount- MHHl aly stricken with ptomaine poisoning. Now 'TOhIH overy friend he has, has had a similar experience, .'..H and the usual tale to the little wife at home goes, ' iliM Such a dearth of real things has seldom been IjImH felt in the town In ages. The social swim has ' ' ' tHHB resolved itself apparently into a dry run. There's 5 IJIfflH' nothing either night or day except a few lines of ,fBBi instruction from the artists on skates, a quiet IjJnH- dinner and a long beauty sleep. What trouble H pSfll they're making for the winter men. 11 nSB There was more than one heart set fluttering ' ft II HDS and at east one sot Quite a turn, for the bet' i HSwB tor wuen on opening one of the dailies during I fUliH tnG wee they saw "two pictures side by side." 'litHB Perhaps it ls an omen, who knows? It may be ''fliTfffff when the excitement has died down that it will 'jjfjfijHj appeal more strongly to the reluctant one. ''HuIh There's a rather shapely looking "store clothes IH dummy" that is animated to the extent of walk- tUSH ing up and down the thoroughfares, and showing rljjjnHH off the clothing "as advertised." No man has 1 jjuHSfll yet learned that he has any other business, but - 1iiiiNH lie is certainly "fit" at the one line. ; jiflflH The patronesses for the new Wasatch skating 'fii&flH are Irs' H. M. Wells, Mrs. Edward S. Ferry, Mrs. Robert J. Glendinning, Mrs. Frank Judge, 'ij&uH' Mrs. W. C. Alexander, and Mrs. Walter Flier. .. !. jHH This is enough to make the skaters come on In lHH itself, and they're all going to be there. J,iIH ISiHS I 'iioSM MIss Estuer Allen was the guest of honor ' UmIH yesterday afternoon at a little informal tea given ji 1 0 ov Mrs. Graham F. Putnam at her new studio, '"IjjJHH 135 East First South street. ) JhHB Tue usual luncheon on Wednesday, and the 1 liilln&H usual dinner and dance today are the only things, I ' 'yJjijllH to which allusion may be made, at the Coun- I uE MIss Wynne Goman passed through the city I tlliBH a fow evenings ago and stopped off long enough I tinflH t0 ljrGalC read &nd tuIngs wItn a counl0 I f SBH Mrs. E.

Fred Dern. Mrs. Dern will entei'-tain entei'-tain again on Wednesday and Thursday in the same way. Mr. and Mrs. Louis S.
