Invitations have 
what promises to be a_ leading 
feature in the winter’s — entertain- 
ment scheme, the large ball which 
Mr. and Mrs. Francis Sargent are 
giving at the Somerset, Boston, on 
the evening of Friday, January 12, 
in honor of their second daughter, 
Miss Margaret Sargent, one of the 
gone out for 
tures. Mrs. Robert D. Evans was in most popular and sought-after girls 
prefaced by rather more than the 
usual number of dinners. The larg- 
est will probably be given by Mrs. 
Harry Pratt McKean, at her Beacon 
street residence, for which invita- 
tions were issued the past week. 
Mrs. MeKean’s dinner will be for 
young people, and will be a very 
elaborate affair. 
Mr. and Mrs. Frederic Winthrop, 
who have been staying at Countess 
Moltke’s house in Lancaster since 
closing their house in Hamilton, 
settled in Boston quite unexpect- 
edly because of the health of Mrs. 
Winthrop and are occupying their 
house at 280 Beacon street. The 
Beacon-street house was to have 
been sold, and Mr. and Mrs. Win- 
throp were to have oceupied their 
house at 299 Berkeley street as soon 
as the renovations, which are now 
under way, are completed. But it is 
probable that they will remain at 
280 Beacon street this winter, as 
Mrs. Winthrop’s health will not per- 
mit of her settling her new home at 
present.
