Douglas had for a long time planned to give a party to them, and had fully arranged the details before she spoke of it to the girls. "It shall be your 'coming-out party' here in Florence," she said; "not a large party, but a thoroughly pleasant and enjoyable one, I am sure."
"No, she has never met him," Hallie promptly took the response out of my mouth; "but she saw him once don't you remember, Ellie, at my sister Adelaide's coming-out ball?" I said, yes, I remembered it. "He danced most of that evening with Laura Burnet," Hallie pursued, "and she was perfectly wild about him.
She brought her on, here, and brought her out; I was at the coming-out tea; but the girl didn't take to the New York thing at all; I could see it from the start; she wanted to get away from it with me, and talk about the ranche." "She felt that she was with the only genuine person among those conventional people."
She was twelve years old shortly after the diary was begun, and she then had a "coming-out party" she became a "miss in her teens." To this rout only young ladies of her own age and in the most elegant Boston society were invited no rough Boston boys.
And when he's done that, I'm going to have a party a coming-out party for you." "For me!" Toby gasped, staring at him with scared blue eyes. "I hope you won't, sir," she said.

Here was a mother blackmailing the Gibraltar of finance for her little girl's coming-out party. Suddenly, quite as unexpectedly to himself as to his hearer, he burst into a peal of laughter.

"Oh, Daddy dearest, it's a jewel of a little sitting-room, the one you fixed up for me and Mother says we can serve punch there the night of my coming-out party." Mrs. Emery was at her heels.
