1t is sincerely to be regretted that
Lieutenant Graham will bear his bride
away to distant scenes-but of such
are the mandates of love.
After the nuptial trip the young off,
Ger will report at Annapolis for duty,
where for year the happy pair will
make their home.
entertainment Miss Ellinwood is re-
ceiving! To be sure, Mr.. Greer is in on
some of the affairs, but in betrothals
and weddings the maid-and she alone
stands in the hmelight. After that,
it's the mans turn at leading parts.
Yesterday Miss Katherine Dillon en-
tertained the fair bride-to-be at lunch
con, whereat the bridal party planned
and Toasted.
Tonight the lights Of welcome will
CLEAN from the Hutch" over in Sau-
salito, for the welkin will ring for the
bride and groom under the roOftree of
Claude Terry Hamilton.
It has been whispered about that the
directors of the Sequoia Club have
practically decided that the club shall
go into winter quarters at the St.
Francis Now, if this information be
correct-and it sounded sane-the de-
cision will meet the approval Of most OF
the members. The St. Francis is CEN
trail attractive and comfortable and Of
fetal confirmation Of the choice is
eagerly awaited.
There is much pleasure in store for
the Sequoia, which. under the guidance
of Charles Sedgwick Aiken and Miss
Robinson, grows more coherent as the
days go by.
To-day the smart set will leap into
its several autos-those who didn't
leap last highland will whizz away
TO Del Monte for the auto meet" or
as our Partisan fri nds call it, the
"gymkhana."
Town will be deserted to-day by ma
chine eTthusiasts-many of the ma
chimes being driven by smart maids
and matrons.
1t is said that there will be a dance
on Saturday night at Del Monte-and
1t ought to look like an Assembly
night at the palace
To Aid Children's Day Home.
