The dinner cards were also most attractive and bore appropriate toasts.
 The many friends of MT. and Mrs. Porter Walker were greatly shocked yes terday to hear of the serious accident to Mir Walker who was carried to the Hillman hospital as a result of injuries sustained by colliding with a car. Much solicitude was expressed and great re- lief was felt when it was ascertained that the injuries were not as serious as at first reported.

 Tie continued nclemency of the weather has interfered somewhat with the plans of motor parties and there has been less driving the last few days. On bright afternoons, however, Highland avenue compares favorably with many of the handsomest boulevards. The number of motor cars Is increasing almost daily. Well set up traps. throngs of saunterers, make the scene most animated. Women swarthed in chiffon veils are out motor ing whenever the weather is at all favor able. Among those seen on recent bright afternoon was Miss Eva Conner, spinning out Highland avenue, and look ing her lovelest in the tonneau of her handsome car.
 Al fIesco entertaining at the club has also been retarded by the lateness of 1 the spring. Usually at this season people are dining on the picturesque club ve- 1 randas. and instead of dining al fresco, l log fires have been welcoming guests in the big living room of the club house. Tn, spring rains however, have been needed on the club grounds, bringing out the delicious green look of the terraces. |
