porting terms. The young lady at the left has just
returned from the hunting field hand-in-hand with the dashing "lead,"
who happens to be an eligible billionaire. Her hostess, the mother of
the sub-deb at the right, has greeted her by hissing, "S--o--o! I
see you've had a good day's hunting!" The use of this unsportsmanlike
expression--in stead of the correct "Hope you had a good run," or "Where

young lady will almost certainly never accept another invitation to her
house.}

table with the sharp end. This display is not in the best taste.

in costumes that would offend against modesty. It is also considered
rude to hold one's swimming partner under water for more then the formal
quarter of an hour.}

THE ENGAGEMENT LUNCHEON

THE engagement is generally announced at a luncheon given by the parents
of the prospective bride. This is usually a small affair, only fifteen
or twenty of the most intimate friends of the engaged "couple" being
invited. It is one of the customs of engagement luncheons that all
the guests shall be tremendously surprised at the news, and great care
should be taken to aid them in carrying out this tradition. On the
invitations, for example, should be written some misleading phrase, such
as "To meet General Pershing" or "Not to Announce the Engagement of our
Daughter."

The announcement itself which should be made soon after the guests are
seated, offers a splendid opportunity for the display of originality
and should aim to afford the gu
