Friday Night. 1
The dance given I ant Friday even
ing at the Country Club, to ho^Or
of Mr. Bhauuou Heath, who wan to
soon leave for a two years stay at
the Naval Academy, wan one of the
pleasantest and largest social events
Among the younger society so far
this summer. The floor ' was nev
er smoother, the inutile never more
entrancing. Adorable maidens, ex
quisitely gowned, handsome college
and society men, and gracious chap
eroues. What more could haveJwen
desired? Mr. and Mrk. C. 0. Whit
aker' chaperoned. The dance wlLl
be long rememebred by those happy
young people. Because like Ldt's
vrlfe we are all prone to look ba&k
%ard. When we are young * re
pant for the future, that pitcheu
pointed tents before us. When we
are older, we live in the past, that
maps Itself in a sacred gilding
glamour and is vocal with t^e happy
echoeti which alone survive. Far
oft fields before and behlud us are
so dewey, so vividly green, and the
present is barren of charm. It is
part of the grim tyranny of ' Time
that it Is tldeless, that the stream
bears remorsely on and on, never
back to the dear old spots, And
so, each coming dance will lack the
ze^jt . and pleasure of its predeces
sors, although these happy young
folks do not think so now.
The following couples and stags
were present: Miss Bertie Lenoir
