Social Qossip
From the present outlook it will not be long before Social Au
gusta will be in full swing and already there is much talking us lo who
will be the lucky hostess who will distinguish herself by giving .the first
big party of the season, a thing that is always so welcome after the long
inocuous desuetude of the summer months.
The winter colonists are, so it is said, coming south a little sooner
this season and before long ali the homes on the Hill, wTiich have been
barred and shuttered for many months, will be opened up and occupied.
The touch of fall in the air and the pretty clothes dispU . ed in the
store w indows are a combination that makes the average woman long for
the cool, crisp days of th@-coming late fall. Summer clothes are tired
and weary looking, yet it is too warm to don fall ones just yet, but
there is the comfort of being able to wear some of the stunning new
creations In head gear and the woman who cannot find comfort in lhat
Is hopeiess indeed.
The appearance for three performances of "The Merry Widow" was
the occasion of some stunning costumes being seen at the Grand. While
It was in a great measure a go-as-you-please audience and every variety
of costume from a shirt waist suit to elaborate evening dress was seen
there were still a number of beautiful gowns seen.
