The bronze velvet upper bodice la cut out at the neck to show a little yoke of cream net; cream net cuffs finish the sleeves. Buttons of the bronze velvet add a smart trimming touch. The hat Is of brown velvet swathed with bronze chiffon over Cold tissue.

announced for last evening on account

The cuKtoin of eelebratlng the flrat day of the new year 1 a very ancient one, though the date of the New Year's day differs among the nations. Among the majority, there was always feasting and gift-giving and various merry-makJags. The practice of ringing In the New Year with a peal of bells at mid night comes from a very ancient ,cuitom of northern Europe. The calendar used by Christian nations la a revision of that of the old Romans. The Roman year began with the month next following the winter solstice, while the nations of northern Europe opened the year with the winter service. In early Christian times, the date varied, but was finally fixed In the sixteenth century. The Jewish New Year Is not a fixed date, but occurs in September; the Chinese New Year comes in September, and the Mohammedans In July, the day being fixed each year by luaar changes. In olden times, in this country especially, the new year opened with much festivity, but from several causes, fell into disuse, though Its observance is again becoming more general. The people of Holland and Germany make more of the New Year than any other people, with customs peculiar to themselves. Twelfth Night Is the evening before Epiphany, or the twelfth night after Christmas, and the observance of this date used to be the culmination of the Christmas festivities In England. Its superstittlons are still sacredly observed In some parts of Englapd. With many at the present day, New Year's day Is the beginning of a new life, and an appropriate time to wish all manner of good things for their friends and themseWes. May It be a happy and prosperous New Yenr to eachtof you.

At one of the. most delightful formal

gatherings ever held in Hammond forty

couples, embracing the young: married set. danced in thelaat day of the year until the small hours at the University club last night. The beautiful club rooms were a scene of unusual holiday gayety, and the function, -which was the third Of the season's series, perhaps eclipsed all its predecessors in social enjoyment and the appointment was perfect. Fro ma fashionable standpoint the atractlvely gowned feminine portion of the assemblage made it a distinctly interesting society event. A program of twenty numbers was

danced, and Dr. Elmore Salisbury was

the chairman of the floor committee.

by DeBriae of East Chicago, and his efforts were warmly praised by the

dancers. In the intermission refresh

versity club is an open house for mem bers only, which will be held on Mon
