The clubs have taken on a summer
aspect and every afternoon groups
of friends drink tea on the terrace
at the Driving Club or East Lake.
Last night a week-end dinner dance
was given at the Driving Club and a
dance was held at East Lake. If
any one doubts that spring is here,
reflection on the May festivals we
are having should remove that doubt.
Throughout the week there have been
lawn parties and al fresco affairs of
various kinds. Many are still to
come. It seems that every club or
other organization is to have its own
ceremonial welcome to spring.
One of the prettiest of the past
week was that given on the law;, r^f
Mrs. W. A. Speer’s Peachtree Si. cot
home, under the auspices of the
young matrons of the First Presby
terian Chul'ch. The many 7 pretty
children. garlanded with flowers,
dancing in the Maypole dance pre
sented a pretty picture. The Haber
sham Chapter is to have a Maypole
dance at the home of Mrs. Clyde
King on Druid Hills in the near fu
ture, and of course every one is in
terested in the big annual May fes
tival of the Uncle Remus Memorial
Association to be given on the 24th
at 'the Sign of the Wren’s Nest.
