The Butte Miner from Butte, Montana • 12

of Sunday Morning- -THE BUTTE MINER- -August 26, 1917 OVER THE TEACUPS. The golf tournament, the visiting ladies, the beautiful luncheon given at the Silver Bow club last Saturday T. B. Miller. Mrs.

G. Lanstrum in honor of Mrs. C. Head, Mrs. and Mrs.

Al Smith, all of Helena, came up for discussion. These charming Helena ladies showed skill and science in their playing and each was corded a genuine welcome at this beautiful affair. The luncheon table was floral mass of pale pink and light lavender sweet peas, arranged exquisitely. A low basket centered the table filled with them and at each cover was a graceful corsage tied with gauze ribbon in the same tones. The entire arrangement was surmounted with great fluffy of wide gauze ribbon in the dominating color tones.

Covers were laid for 18 and such a merry coterie as gathered about that table! The menu was one of the most delicious ever served at luncheon there and the table was laid in the private dining room. Then afterwards automobiles conveyed the guests down to the country club, where the links and grounds about the clubhouse presented the most animated appearance. The golf course seemed actually alive with players and their attire stood out in pretty contrast. There were many in white, others in green sport suits, in cerise, in mustard color, in every conceivable shade and style, but every one striking and stylish. Surely the popular place never looked more alive and animated than it did upon this casion.

The dance held there the same evening was one of note and everyone had the jolliest time imaginable. The music was excellent, all the dancers were handsomely gowned and the spirit of informality and good cheer held full sway. The subject of men came up and one lady made the remark that she particularly admired men because of she chose a friend for wear and fortheir broadness of nature a and when ever, she always chose a man because she could depend upon him, and, as she asserted, few women are dependable. This statement caused a furore among some of those present. One lady made the remark that men are no kinder in their attitude towards the woman who has made a mistake than the average woman.

She said: "For a steady, good, all-round friend, who will never betray my confidence, give me a substantial woman. She understands women and she knows what they have to meet in life. No, sir; give me a woman for a friend in need, but give me a man for amusement. One cannot get along without to fritter an hour SO away with, men friends. to talk to dance with, but there are 80 few gentlemen of the old school left that we must not expect the gallantry that existed before suffrage and the hurry and rush to take our places side by side with men and the effort to be their dominent equals in every particular became in the life of the modern This was followed by the reading of the "Reflections of a Bachelor Girl" by that pungent feature writer, Helen Rowland, which was as follows: Alas, a woman never knows her own mind-and a man never knows his own heart! Taking the conceit out of a man 1s almost as cruel as telling a small boy that there is no Santa Claus.

pa painful wouldn't "Reforming" thing in a wouldn't husband be such 1f he always insist on beginning to give everybody good advice the moment he stops setting a bad example. It is the tantalizing vision of those little breakfast table tete-a-tetes that lures most men into matrimony--and the tantalizing reality those same little tete-a-tetes that drives 80 many of them out of it into the divorce court, Make an idol of a man and he'll tolerate you; make a chum of him and he'll like you; make a baby of him and he'll propose to you; make a fool of him and he'll adore you. There is nothing about which every man 1s SO optimistic as his ability to annihilate space and get anywhere on earth in "ten minutes." A man is constantly deceiving himself--most of all when he fancies that he is deceiving a woman. She can catch him in 56 varieties of fibs and he will still confidently believe that he can make her swallow the 57th. A truly brilliant woman is one who de brilliant enough to outshine a man at repartee, and wise enough not to.

"Delicacy" is a word which some people seem to think applies only to something to to eat. It was remarked that there would be fewer sewing clubs this coming winter than formerly, as everyone would continue to sew for the Red Cross and 1 for the Patriotic association. Perhaps these clubs will hold one meetIng every week and maybe two or three times each week there will be meetings to chronicle, but they will be for a purpose--for the soldiers and hospitals. "It does seem that there is a rerival of industries all the old-time needlework and and knitting, spinning ing, tatting, hand-weaving, spinning and the making of old-fashioned rag rugs. Even our little girls are knitting and teaching others to do same.

It is remarkable the way the younger set is interesting themselves in 'making 'comfort bags' for the wounded in France. Little Miss Dorothy Lavell has had a knitting class for some time and she has instructed little girls and has many followers." On the coast everyone "tats." in other words makes yards and it seems miles of tatting. The elderly women take to that because, as they say, they can make 12 stitches with their eyes shut. Mrs. Lavell's pretty tea and shower for Pet Walker came up and every detail was praised.

This sweet girl will be married on the eighteenth of September and with" morning church wedding, a reception following at the Silver Bow club. It has been said that it will be rather quiet than otherwise, and Pet's close friends will be included in the invitation list. Eva Anderson's wedding will also be an early September event and will be solemnized at home with matron of honor and bridesmaid and everything that goes to make a home wedding complete. had a 'No man's land' or a valley of eternal silence somewhere to us," one rather tired guest remarked, "where we could go and rest and rest and have absolute peace of mind and nothing on earth to bother us or worry us, not even movie to go to and not a single newspaper to read, where as the Ida war M. would be unknown and, Evans in the Saturday Evening Post wrote, 'where one would never have to take cognizance of such things as war.

Great showers of marigold and bridal wreath were placed about the rooms on the lower floor; the tea table being resplendent in a low basket of the bright vellow blooms intermingled with sprays of "the delicate bridal wreath. Tall vases held red and white asters in the parlor and the decorations were most atractive. The hostess was assisted in receiving her friends" by her mother and Miss Anderson. Just the invited and at the close the afterintimate friends of the bride- were noon a large hamper was brought in filled with all sorts of kitchen utensils.
