Sunday teas, inaugurated a fortnight
ago by Miss. Floyd Robertson who asked
few guests informally for Sunday az
ternOon, promise to be the most popu-
lar feature of the season for the young
er set. Miss Permelia Curtis entertain
ed about 20 friends in this pleasantly
informal fashion yesterday afternoon
and Mrs. w. S. McClintock and Miss
Gala Cutteu will give Sunday tea
at the home of the former soon after
Miss Cuttell, who is now in LeaVen-
worth, returns. Sunday is the only at
ternOon when the men Except the
members of the Idle Rich class, repre-
sented locally by only two men, one
of whom threatens to take a position
the first of the month"; are available
so there is an excuse for asking ones
friends for tea on Sunday, if the unco'
guide demand it.

The S. r. is indebted to an anony-
nous correspondent for blue penciled
clipping of a recent effusion from this
pondent quite accurately denominates
as nauseating rot. Too bad anonymous
correspondent wasn't invited to the
party.

In this town, when the girls want to
describe the ne plus ultra of mascu--
line fascination, (whatever that isl they
use Roy Thompson as standard OF
comparison. Every girl telling the 9TH
er girls about her out of town suitors
says that they are as good-looking as
Roy Thompson-and human praise can
go no farther!
There is much interest, locally, in the
concert to be given at the Grand De-
cember 8, by Mr.. Carlton Wood,
young Topeka violinist who returned

years study in Europe, and who will
ma kev his first. appearance in concert
since his return, on this occasion. Mr..
Alf Klingenburg pianist. and Mr.. Frank

Later returns from the Coffeyville
wedding: Three private cars stood on
the Coffeyville sidetracks during The
ante-wedding festivities. They brought
guests from New York, Chicago and
St. Louis. Miss Anheuser of st. Louis
was. one of the guests. Anheuser?
Anheuser? Where have we heard that
name before? The bride
groom entertained thirty guests at the
hotel for ten days before the we'd
ding, and had Harry Kelley's orches-
ira of nine pieces up from Kansas City
for whole week. One of
the New York women wore a princesse
gown fastened UP the back with little
diamond buckleSi .s The
bride spent five thousand dollars on
her rousseau. It may be different in
Cofeyville. but if it happened in To-
peka we would expect them to come
back home to eat within a year.
