SOCIETY NOTES 
The popularity of Miss Kleanora 
Sears as a coveted house-guest in 
-yarious parts of the country is indi- 
s 
eative from her social calendar for 
some days to come. Today she de- 
‘parted for Ottawa, Canada, to be 
the house guest of the Duke of Con- 
naught, Governor General of Can- 
ada, and the Duchess of Connaught, 
at Government House, where she 
will stay for several days. This is 
an invitation which imphes much 
distinction, as the Duke of Con- 
naught is a brother of the late King 
Edward and an uncle of King 
George; the present sovereign of 
England. Miss Sears went over to 
New York yesterday to be the guest 
of Mrs. William K.: Vanderbilt Jr. 
over night, and then left for Can- 
ada. “She will return to Boston so 
as to:attend the dinner which her 
uncle, Philip S. Sears, will give at 
his home on Commonwealth avenue 
on Thursday evening, February Ist, 
and on the following night will at- 
tend the Bachelors’ ball, which is to 
be given at the Hotel Somerset. 
She will also be present at the sec- 
ond assembly on February 9th, hav- 
‘ing been deterred from attending 
the first assembly because of the re- 
eent death of her father’s uncle, Dr. 
Algernon Coolidge of Beacon street, 
Boston:: Were it not for her ap- 
proaching visit to. the Duke and 
Duchess of Connaught Miss Sears 
would have gone on to Philadelphia 
for the dinner and dance which Mr.

giving tonight. Miss Sears will 
leave Boston the latter part of Feb- 
ruary for California; where she will 
visit Mr and Mrs. Francis Carolan
