You can tell it at a glance at any bridge party by the fact that not many regrets are received by the girls who shiver in fur coats on a comparatively warm day, by tanned complexions that make teeth glisten whiter than ever, by sunburned hands on which diamonds sparkle with extra brilliance.

Current conversation Is concerned mainly with what people brought home in their shoes, how those who have been to Havana look like immigrants as they get off the steamers because' they are all carrying little rush-bottom chairs, and how it is that eating candy can give you a "breath." TAP DANCING is society's latest distraction. Soon it will be as necessary to know how to tap dance as it is to know how to play contract bridge. Several classes exist in the city at all times of day so that both men and girls may learn how to shuffle systematically. To learn takes more concentration than any Income tax report, but such is the lure that at one of the recent bridges several girls were overheard arguing the fact that knowing how to tap dance is a greater asset to a woman than being a good pianist. When you are young, perhaps yes, but can anyone Imagine his or her mother entertaining her guests by rendering a snappy tap dance? E.
