N EW YEAR'S celebrations cover a span of no less than three evenings, the hotels taking advantage of New Year's Eve fall-

Jjfg on Sunday, by celebrating tonight. Then Mrs. John Dor-rancrs party, or rather the one which she and Charlotte are giving together for Peggy, virtually monopolizes tomorrow night, and Mon­day's calendar already is crowded with listings for receptions of all kinds, Including the ever-popular open house, egg-nog parties, teas, •uppers and even the most formal of dinners.

You've heard, of course, that the Frederick Schaeffers' at home, which was to have been held at their Twenty-second street town house, is 'called off because of mourning. But Just In case you're motoring down Phoenixville way, Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton Oilkyson and Grace will have open house tomorrow night. You needn't feel •lighted at not having heard about it before this, as they have sent out no cards.

The Granville Worrells will receive their friends at "Dunmovln," their Ardmore abode, from four until seven o'clock on Monday. The Edward Dales have sent out invitations for their at home on the ssme afternoon, to be held after four o'clock. The Benjamin Rushs have planned a breakfast as their greeting to the New Year, and I think I've already told you of other events which were planned long In advance of these..

So you see we've a busy week-end ahead. Adieu, my dear, and my sincere wish Is that the incoming year,

with many more, will be filled with happiness for you and those you hold dear.
