As the season advances, the úsual Saturday night crowd at the Hongkong Hotel gets better and better dressed (Had" they `all' been” saving up their new frocks for St. "Andiews' and St. George's, do you think?) Two striking women that I feel sure I should have recognised - were dancing, one in black velvet with a diamond clip and the other in famé colour, a mass of beady. work decorating her sleeves. The fall blonde beauty in seagreen "was' Mrs. Sullivan with her hus

band Mrs. Bowes-Smith was there, wearing a dress, of soft- blue with touches of diamante, and Mrs. Crousher wore her love- lygreen velvet with the tissue- lined shoulder bow. ha her party was Miss Hay-Eadle, wearing lilee velvet a brief coat of silver brocade.
