Mary HORSES AND DEBS have been desperately vying with each other for first pince in the week's interesta, On Monday night the National Horse Show opened most spectacularly at the new Madison Square Garden and on Wednesday evening the debutantes of Brooklyn lined up for the first time this season at the Debutante Ball. Luckily, however. 110 one was forced to make the diffcult decision of which deb deserved the blue. What is the difference, after between debutante parties and horse shows? A girl's debut marks the time when the transition is from showing her in hand to putting her in the class. She through her notice, one of which imis put peratively must be the Charleston, and conformation, and manners count just as much on the ballroom floor as they do in tanbark ring.

Ag to classes, debs are divided up in much the same way as are the horses. a There are kind that ride in park, thoroughbreds, the are ornamental debs good only for show purposes and hunters. TO GIVE THE HORSE some attention, a dog have his day, debutante her year, but the horse le certainly having his week this week. even though the Queen did not attend the show. More than eight countries are paying homage to him and displaying all his virtues.

Women flock to this equine display as they never have before to see the foreign officers in their stunning uniforms. The horse, in these days thought of only as the plaything of the rich, is represented in this show as the aid of the soldier in the military classes, the asset of the sportsman' in the hunter classes, and his usefulness is duly recognized in classes where he is shown pulling the wagons of bread and dairy concerns. DISTINCTIVE DETAILS noticed during the week were blue pumps with silver buckles worn by Miss Delphis King, a gold metal cloth dress of stunning simplicity with long sleeves worn by Miss Barbara Bailey at the Debutante Ball, a peacock embroidered in silver sequins on Miss Marguerite Wilkinson's green chiffon coming out dress, and Miss Geraldine Swimm in another gold gown with a long skirt and an upstanding Elizabethan collar.
