MISS MARTHA DABNEY
CHOOSES MAIDS OE HONOR.

Miss Martha Dabney, who was selected
to christen the new Edgewood electric
railway, arrived home yesterday from
Colorado and Immediately chose a group
of friends to assist her in the ceremony,
acting as her maids of honor. They are
Miss Florence Rogers, Miss Edith Bow
ron, Miss Jennie Trimble, Miss Eleanor
Matthews, Miss Mary George Cruikshank,
Miss Norma Hood and Miss Maybelle
Roden.
The christening of the new car line will
be fraught with unusual interest. So
many of the smart set are planning to
build homes, many of whom have already
purchased lots In that portion of the
city traversed by the new car line, that
promises to become very fashionable, and
thus the christening Is an event rather
prophetic in its Importance The group
of young women to take part in the cere-
monies includes some of Birmingham's
oveliest society girls.
A dinner party has been arranged at
the Country club in honor of Miss Dab
ney and her maids. This will take place
either tomorrow or Monday evening, when
the young women and their escorts will
be driven out to the club in automobiles.

MR.. AND MRS. FOWLkES AN
NoUNcE THE ENGAGEMENT OF
THEIR DAUGHTER-lNFORMAL
BRIDGE PARTY-SUBSCR
DANCE TO BE. EVENT OF THE
WEEK-DEPARTURES AND RE
TURNS OF VACATIONISTS
BY MYRTLE MILES.

AS the end of August approaches the
record of returns from vacation outings
IS constantly Increasing This week in the
chronicle of people coming and going
the returns have exceeded departures, and
though the fall vacation is popular in
Birmingham this promises to be more
notable as the season advances, and es-
pecially now that >the break in the in
tense heat has taken place.
Society has been more quiet this sea-
son than at any time for some years past
The stay-at-homes have given the entire
summer to rest, and as those who are
returning with the tan of the seashore
and the rudy cheeks given by mountain
breezes are evidently equally refreshed
and ready for the approaching season,
there is every reason to believe that the
winter will be one of phenomenal gayety.
Indeed, many matrons and maids in So
ciety have already made plans for winter
entertaining. There will be several fash
ionable early weddings and consequent
smart entertainments for the brides. Then
there are two western entertainments
planned, which were suggested by this
lldNtl III tic plSlul SoQut lilOuH-
tain country of the Indian, the cowboy
and the Mexican, and the matrons who
are planning these original Inequalities
have brought the favors which they ex-
pect to use from the western land.
Even the children, who kept things very
gay for time with their dancing par
ties and picnic outings, have almost
ceased their gayeties and, like their ED
ers, are resting for the fall duties that to
them mean school or college, as the
case may be. There are intermittent
bridge parties-porch affairs that are all
the more enjoyable now that there are
so few and occasionally a small dinner is
given, but the aim in all of these is ex-
IRENE simplicity and an informality that
urges many. hostesses to secrecy. East
Lake still lures many from the city for
the evenings and many 1ong-to-be-remem-
bered summer parties have taken place
there, both moonlight picnics and the in
formal dances of the college set.
Birmingham is as pleasant as any city
one may find in which to pass the sum-
nner for the perfect freedom from social
duties is In line with the little informal
Inequalities that, imposing no restrictions,
are entered into with pleasant enthusiasm.

FOR VERY LITTLE FOLK,
A Story of What the Cat and the Hen
and the Children Did.

They were SO busy making mud pies
that they did not see Mrs. Tomkins."

and mewed, and put up her paw and
touched Molly and Jamie and Betty and
Teddy-first one and then the other
much as to say, do come, some of you
and help mel Do come, pleaser'
By and by the childrens mamma came
out of the house and saw how oueeriv
the cat was acting, and said: Children,
Mrs. Tomkins is trying to get you to go
with herkand see if her babies are all
right"
So the children left their play and
said; Come, Mrs. Toml1ins, we will go
with you now"
The old cat gave a thankful mi
e-o-u. and started down the walk leading
to the barn. Every now and then she
looked back to see If the children were
really coming When she got to the
stable. she ran and jumped up on the
manager, and looked down into 1t, and
gave q quick. sharp 'm-i-e-o-u," as IL
to say. What do you think of that?"
And the children looked In and saw a
and trying to keep them all covered up!
When the cat tried to go near them, the
hen would peck at her and drive her
away. How the children laughed Mol
lie said: did you ever see anything so
funny I am going to ask Mamma to
tell st. Nicholas about it-how our old
hen 'dopted the kittens"
The hen had been sitting upon some
eggs in nest near where the cat had
set up housekeeping, and when the cat
went out, the hen came over and took
the cats little family under her wings.
Just as If they had been so many. chick
a-biddies. And when the cat went home
again, the hen wouldn't let her come
near the kittens. Molle took the hen
| Off, and Mrs Tomkins was happy.
The next day she came again, looking
as though she said, 1T am very sorry to
trouble you, but l must" Then she said:
"M-i-e-o-u! m-i-e-o-u' So the children
left their play and went to the stable
with her. and found the hen playing
mother to Mrs. Tomkins's kittens again
and trying to make them keep still and
stay under her wings. If one of them
! pohed its head out she would give 1t
! sharp peck to make 1t go back.
The children laughed again. and Mollie
said: Poor Mrs. Tomkins. I would look
for a new house If I were you-you do
have such meddlesome neighbors!' Then
she took the hen Off, and Mrs. Tomkins
picked up one of the kittens.
The children's mamma was sitting in
the library reading when the old cat
came in with kitten In her mouth.
She put it softly down, went out and
soon returned with another. She kept
on doing this until she had moved all her
family of five kittens Then she settled
herself In a cozy corner, and looked at
the lady and purred in this way: IL
you only knew how much trouble l have
had with that bad old hen, you would
let me and my children stay here"
The lady laughed and said: Il VIII
see what / can do for you"
Just then the children came in and
begged to have the kittens stay So
new home was made for them in box
in the woodhouse.

How To Be Human.
From Harper's Bazar

TUT Tut Pot
Success In human relationships means
the possession, to some extent at least,
of the power so naively shown by the
little girl who walked with her mother
In the park. She entered SO spontane-
ously and so entirely into the life about
her, she felt so intimately and SO wildly
the experiences of the trees and the flow
ers, the birds and the squirrels, that she
temporarily lost the consciousness of her
own personality, and as she skipped
about came running to her mother cry
ing, ,"Oh! mother, mother, isn't It enjoy
ing itself!'
