GOODWIN'S WEEKLY II Saunterings Society THE popularity of the .West side country club, a short distance from the end of? Main street, is growing to such an extent that re cently the younger set, returning from another party, hardly had room to en joy themselves, and it is thought that the jovial Colonel in charge will shortly be obliged to build an addi AN tion. Talk about teaching the young 1 idea how to shoot some of the bocI- J ety girls from in town and out have v taken to the new club with such en thusiasm that it has been suggested that it will be a good plan to have a series of four or five pleasant ren desvouz out in the country similar in character to the "beach" resorts in San Francisco, so that there might be a little more spice and variety to the evening's entertainment.

In society circles in the east those who have not had it are frankly looked down upon for aero plane flights are now such a common occurrence that everyone who is any one is supposed to have experienced every sensation produced by air flight. The symptoms of the disease are a buzzing and clacking in the ears, short ness of breath, and strong heartbeats, smarting face, headache, and a desire to sleep. These symptoms all arrive after the flight. The Jersey Lily is coming back to America for a few more farewell per formances.

Years ago Meredith wrote of one of her performances: "She is the ideal shep. erdess of the chromo-lithograph. She has to faint and she takes three gaunt strides to fall on the ready knees of the dame prepared to receive her. She has to make love and does it with all her arms and breasts. Very handsome I'tj not a shade of mystery or variable ness; the heroine for bold dragoons." 1 But stuff like that is all right with '" Lily. She gets the coin every time she comes over to let a now genera tion see what she looks like and she has recently broken into the new Drlttanlca encyclopedia. Mr. and Mrs. Karl A.
