H 8 GOODWIN' S WEEKLY.
H Saunterings
H The automobile parade to take place Thursday
PH evening during the carnival of the Wizard of
BPfl the Wasatch, is to be one of the most uniquely
PAVAi beautiful events of the entire carnival, and con-
BPfl siderable enthusiasm has already been awakened
H among the owners of motor cars who are busy
PH designing the decorative effects they will use.
m None but private cars will be allowed in the
H parade, the general scheme being followed which
H is prevalent in other carnival cities. A dozen
H society ladies and as many more of the younger
m girls who have their own cars will act as patron
PH esses of the event and committees of award, etc.
Wm The prizes this year will be dainty and beauti
Hj ful, coming from the leading jewelers and selected
Hj by a committeewhich will take great care in
m choosing only such things as are to be treasured
P for their beauty and worth.
R The parade promises to be a society event
P exceeding in beauty and personal decorative ef-
H fects any other features o fthe carnival.

Hfl While war and rumors of var and the news
H of the comings and goings of those who are
H supposed to make up the whirl of the town seem
Pf to have been matters of chief interest in society
H during the past fortnight, what has really occu-
P pied most of the attention of the people who
P have more time and money than other people, is
H the preparation for the weddings scheduled for
H September, October and November. In spite of
P the uncertainties in commercial circles and the
R general unrest produced by unexpected world
R happenings, there seem to be more matrimonial
R events on the tapis than ever before, and the
R god of such things lias been particularly busy
R in this vicinity. Both in the importance and
R number of marriages that will take place, the
VAyJ season will be unusual and considering the num-
VAyJ erous affairs that always precede these events,
PAwJ the last months of the year are bound to be un-
RPRj usually giddy.
