THE WORLD OF SOCIETY
SHORTER HOURS FOR THE WHITE
HOUSE LEVEES.
Dance at Senator Mason's Home for a
Foot Dall Team-Other Pleasant
Events-Personal Notes.
The most important change in the an
nouncement of the White House program
for the season of 1401 is that the hours for
the evening levees are shortened, I) to 10:14)
being stated instead of 9 to 11, as the cus
tom of past years. As all these receptions
are practically over, so far as new arrivals
in the house are concerned, by.10 or a
quarter past, the change will not occasion
any inconvenience, since the evening is
usually kept free from other engagements,
anyway. As Wednesday ts also the night
for all save the last reception, which is for
the public, it will practically do away with
