there Is ; younger Bis.tcr, Oracu
rnHB Porters' dance, was beautiful.
X There Iverc about 400 there, and the
ballroom fit was at the Bcllcvuc-Strut-ferd,
you knew was n mass of greens
and wonderful trees banked en the
atige, wyie the boxes wcre garlanded
wiS grcna and begonias. The ball
room wp.B transformed Inte an Italian
carton, Jlk roses and begonias being
used, lattices of white were arranged
nreunTl the room and great gray nnd
whtte vases were filled with roses and
greens. Supper was served after mid
night in the clever and red rooms, for
the entire ballroom was used.
Kitty were a marvelous model gown

With no sleeves. The sKlrl was net

HAVn you heard about the wonderful
party the Teller are planning for
Christmas Ee? mi knew Ilcnry
Tctlew mnrricu jvuiiiitw'1 emwi "
bent out invitations in the form of a
ChrKtmn? proelainntion and I hear they
wcre simply wonderful. The TctlertS
have been married four or Ine jears
and have two of the darlingcst little
jlrls.
I
T SP.KMIU" stranae last night net te
se te the enerii, but there was no
Twrfermnnce scheduled for tliw wcea,
teu knew. There will be opera en
Tuedj night in Christmas week,
which If 1 remember rightly, is nn
innnvnllnn. I'Slllllly tllCrO linve IJiuii
pfermaiices from the week before
Christmas till the week after the tu-jt
of the venr. and sometimes net uiuu
the week after that. This year they
have made the change and I must say
I lather like It. it ulwnj s i s-ceraed te
me us if we needed some of the music
and the wonder of opera in the holi heli
daj.s te counteract se much dining and
dancing.
THE plnjlcts nt the l'lajs nnd Play
ers were awfully soeil last night. It
was the second evening. nnd mey " i
c-en better than en Monday night, l
was told. The ISM piny. "A KJhi In1
the Dark," had five in the cast f.eerge
Kdwards, Dr. Knrle lticc, Mrs. llllam
8harke. Sarah Finek and nda Kuns. i
It was directed by Jee Ter, whose work
as a director is always te be admired,
nnd it was simply splendid.
The second playlet had its scene laid
in Newport and the cast included Mrs.
Philip Castncr, Mr. Samuel McDowell,
Jean Uenslcy and Menty Lycett.
The last plav was an up-te-date ene;
In fact, it is still playing In New Yerk,
where it is produced by the Province
town Piavers. This was called "Clese
the Doer," had n larger cast and was
somewhat longer than the foregoing
cnes. The actors and actresses were Carl
Lewis Altmnier. Everett Hell, Henry
It. Sheppard, Maria de Kesenkn. Mrs.
Sam Cooper, Mrs. Chnrlcs Whitcomb,
Marinn Grant and Mrs. Henry U.
Sheppard.
It was altogether most cnieynble and.
in spite of the fact that Christmas is
se close and there are many packages te
tie up in the evenings, thcrp was a
goodly nrray of members and guests
mere nnd they wcre most appreciative, '
tee.
EL-SIB was nt the front deer yester
day when Miss It , who lives net !
deer, startel downtown. She was peep- i
Sng out again when Miss It came back, I
and se Miss It called in: "Hew are I
you, dear?" "Fine," snid Klsle, slip
ping out of the deer, having found a i
fhanre te speak. And, she added con-
lldlngly: "I get your Ohiltmas pres-,
cnt." Then, hoping still mere, that thei
lorrespending one from Miss It would
bp adequate te her Ideas of presents she
BAvc her flnnl hint and. said she, in n
veiled nnd excited veice: "And it cost
mere than n quarter, tee."
