THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1900. . i wMeMs Social- mszz, W SOCIAL) nffalrs continue to be In a state of doauctudo which may he Innocuous, but Is certainly not enlivening. L,ater, wo nro jitonilseel may delectable Joys, the prospect of buying wedding pres ents galore, the gnloty of a golf tour nament, et cetera. Few people enjoy giving their friends pleasure to the degree evinced by Mr. and Mrs. K. S. Godfrey, of the Hotel Jermyn. During recent seasons this peculiar satisfaction has taken the form of entertaining a house party at Lake 'Wlnola. This summer Mr. ami Mrs. Oodfiey had a company of twenty or more guests during the month of July. After a visit of a fortnight to various seashore resorts the host and his gracious w lfe have decided that thev have a better time at the lake among their fi lends than anywhere else, so today they stait out again for "Wlnola where the s.une pattv will bo entertained for a week. All the de light to bo gained fiom the use of a half dozen horses, carriages, boats and other means of amusement, iiroUded by Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey, ate enjnjd A great featuie of the house p.itty this summer has been the celebration of blrthduvs, live of which weie ap propriately marked in various w.iys during the month at the lakeside. One of these was the birthday of a certain factotum, widely known and greatly appreciated in his several capacities at the Jermyn and at the lake. He Is Jacob Young, a coloted eteran, and a man of much ersatlllty and education. Ills birthday paity was jeally a great event and a most affecting surprise to him. It included immense cakes with the correct number of candles, speech es, toasts, original "poetry" by one of the company, and a presentation nddress by Mr. Godfrey with appropil nte responses from the proud and hap py recipient of the many gifts. The Misses Mary and Grace Daniels, Anna Hughes, Leah Hvane, Gertrude Hammond, Grace Hlce, Alta Kresge, Lulu Leader, Florence Keith and Mar garet Hughes, of the West Side, have returned from a delightful vacation experience in Sterling, Wayne county.

HER POINT OF VIEW ANVMISim of cities have become agitated ofer the "net-waist" worn by women nnd In some of these, as In St. Louis, the agitation has grown to such excessive propottions that It has almot leached the point of hysteiks. Rut then, St. Louis Is nothing If not hysterical. It Mas the shirt waist man who started tho dlstuibance. Ho came into the hotel dining room at a summer re sort wearing no coat. Theie were ladles sresont who were shocked and the head waiter had to be the medium of their objections. Naturally the coatless man was mad. It was very warm weather and from that time on HANDSOME BLUE TAFFETA PETTICOAT, iliiiliiP mwm Wifo iPmw ZXmmit iasH&li B (i K M a a 1 1 1 1 1 tJSBstf! i iwwsjTaBijt?v mm&mmmmBmm:- ? j.aTa.Uia"rM 7?WJIIIm!QC)'UK(SVME k&FMaSsKHSK Taffeta skirts trlmmeJ with black laco a very handsome yet practical model. to tho end of his stay tho tompcraturo In the vicinity of the shocked ladles b"gan to rise. He gave Interviews to tho papers. He secured the co-operation of a clergyman who had been n, classmate In college. Tho text of the sermons and tho Interviews was tho "not-walst." llelng mere mdn, that was tho generic term applied to tho transparent fabrics In which appeared, (nnd this last phrase was deemed ab solutely literal) many of tho fashion able representatives of society. It In cluded tho "all-over' 'embroidered bodices, tho lace yokes and sleeves and tho waists made of lace and Insertion and of true net or chiffon. The shirt wnl?t man denounce. J these gnrmontn as Indecent nnd vulgar. No woman, he declared, who possesseJ rent modesty would wear a not-walst In the stiect which must reveal the skin as If nothing was worn over It. He believed this attire might be per missible In the evening or for the house, but not for day wear In pub lic. He affected to be horribly shocked when ho met any one In the street thus "undressed" ns he called It. Ho consulted conservative ojd ladles who by no possible stretch of tho Imagina tion could have been permitted to go round with transparent yokes and Rleeves. Thev allowed him to have pilnted the results of these Interviews which stroncly depiecatcd such Im proper nttlre. The man had his re venge. All the papers took up the matter, It was illsciissed In the pul pit, and the club. Some of the women who had boon going about nice and oiil luttlcuhiily, cool with laige sl7eel apoi tines sot In pretty patterns i i or their necks nnd aims, as a mat- t r of self defence, began to wear more epieUe waists. T.lkc Kipling's Rnn giroo ,thev 'had to." One prim old indv In a newspaper Inteivlew hail definitely stated that she would not -peak to a woman who wote a net vv list, and added complacently tint nine of her fi lends would be seen so dlsgrne efullv dtesse-d. The wearers of the objectionable garments did not mind the disapproval of tho lady In ilitestlon "old Tabby" they called hr but It did glow embarasslng to find themsi'hes so conspicuous as they wet" wheneer they appeared on the strct clad In their thin ahy waists. "My ery arms blushed this afternoon," de cp'ied erne of the Injutcd fair ones." The lile.i' as If It were not perfectly e-oireet to wear lace voke nnd sleeves. I olw.ns have a nice white corset enver beautifully tilmmed nnd with a black net lining Just cut out low In the noe k. That hen lid man. I wish to goodness we had let him come Into the 'lining loom wearing anything on eaith he chose. I'll never suv a word aaln If tho whole outfit of men appear thti'o times ,i day dad only In tho sim plicity of their p.il.imas." And then the 1 idles In question packed up their pretty net w lists In many trunks and bled themselves homeward, where thy found thiir tumbles bad piecedi'd them for the net-wals-t crusade had extended rather completely over the nation. d a The Inst place to contract the habit is Philadelphia, which Is Just now having spasms of propriety over the Quaker maidens who Ins'st upon ap peulng on the streets and In othr public places In tiansp.uent gowns Piobobly the only way the matter wlM be t-ettled is by the foice.s ef natute In the shape of approaching cool weather. The tiuth of the c.i'e Is that it Is not at all likely a protest would have been mide against net walts had not tho circumstances In connec tion with the hhlrt-walst man Incited the out-crv. It Is expected that wn lmn will di ess as comfortably as pos sible dining the hot days and while tiansparent fabrics made up In eldb oi.itc fashion cannot be said to be In tho best taste when worn in the morn ing the mere fact of having '-heer ma teilals, laco-llke In effect, over the nok and aims should not teally be the sig nal for a liot. a Magistrates in many cities nro ex piesslng surptiso at what they con sider Is the Increase of ci imo and vice among children. Juvenile depravity seems to have had a special outbieak during the past few months, and the reason thereof nnd tho icmedy to bj applied constitute seilous problems. That wickedness Is on the Increase are sultab'o hr wir cUrins; the Autumn n among very young children Is practi cally acknowledged by students of criminology. There Is cause for alarm in Scranton, where flagrant offciiBcs are constantly reported as being com mitted by wicked boys nnd girls. It Is Impossible ' for our residents to sccuro fruit from their own trees or gardens. Petty thiev ing, malicious mischief, nnd even more serious charges are fre quently reported, and tho offenders In almost every case nre small rascals for whom no punishment In the code fcms exactly suitable. They cannot bo sent to Jail nmong old and har dened criminals. There Is no place of detention where a course of disci pline and careful training may bo ad ministered, and the state reformatories nre scarcely designed to meet the oc casion. When a little tearful lad nppears be for the mnyor or tho alderman to an swer tho charge of fruit theft or window-breaking, and curls up his small bare toes, and turns up a small, Innocent-looking face to Ills honor, nnd says, "I won't never do It no more at nil," his honor Is extremely likely to deal mercifully with the little scamp, particularly when a weeping mother nnd a shame-faced father plead In the background and promise all sorts of teform for their son. Consequently, he gets off lightly and soon falls Into the same old habits with an acecs-slon of cunning with every offense. AVhnt a problem it is and what a menace to the city and nation where tho little children ate not In ought up In tho way of honesty and order. For the fault Is certainly In the home from which these bad boys and girls ate sent Into the world. There must be much neglect and nn nppalllng lack of good example where children of six and eight years old nro detected In thievery or destruction of property. For tho poor little people thus prac tically tinned adrift then? Is no hope from homo surroundings and tho ad monitory remaiks of his honor to such parents might as well be de livered respectfully to George Wash ington on the Court House Square. Of ten efforts In the behalf of wayward children are worse than wasted. It was not long ago that a well known police oltlcer told the following ex perience, which was only one of many of slmllnr chaiacter: Down about tho stations late In the evening he had noticed the young daughter of a man he knew In com pany with other girls whom he had reason to suspect of being bad com pany Indeed for anybody. Finally, ori' night about 11 o'clock he spoke to the giil, who was scarcely more than a child, and told her to go home and not be seen In that locality again nt such nn hour. Th next day her father appeared In a very Irate mood nnd was appar ently disposed to smash tho otllcer's head for "Insulting" his daughter, when she was on her way home about her business. He'd thank the police man to let his daughter alone and not thus humiliate her before her fi lends. To seay that the ofllcer was indig ent Is to express but tamely tho motion which he experienced. "All right for ou!" he shouted, as soon as ie got the opportunity. "When I speak to your girl the next time A will bo when she is in the patrol wngpn going to the lock-up," which was" probably moio prophetic than palntuble to the fond parent. Tho only possible outlook of cheer tor these wayward, neglected mortals Is toward tho fieo Klndergai ten, the public school and such organizations ns the Hoys' Industrial association nnd the nsvoLlatlons for girls so nbly conducted In this city. Intead of spas modic, hysterical efforts of chailtably dlsposed people In the Interests of re foim and better living. It would be well If they would co-operate In tho progress of these noble Institutions al ready established, to inlst that there be moie flee kindergartens for the pool ; to make the public schools more helpful and less hnmpeied by red tape and the fienzy of the examination fad, which often acts to the exclusion of many pupils, and to aid by money nnd personal woik tho Interests which keep young girls off the streets at night and give boys something to think about besides malicious mis chief.
