The particular Billikin. which presided
over the weather bureau on the first day
of the horse show certainly lived up to
his promising smile. The bright sun
light and stiff breeze scufiing the surf
around the big horse show pier were
good appetizers for the sights to follow.
II my lady was afraid of ruffiing her
carefully puffed hair, she arrived in a
glass inclosed chair. If she were an out
OF doors girl she firmly anchored her
horse show hat and walked. Flags, sun
light and music of the band inside gave
all comers a cheerful welcome
Inside, the judges stand in the center
was banked with yellow daffodils and
feathery white flowers at the top. A rush
of handsome horses passing around the
ring, boxes draped with flags and filled
with beautifully gowned women. What
more fascinating sight could mortal de-
sire?
Among the hundreds of exquisite gowns
worn by the woman guests sof the Marl-
borough Blenheim, 1t Is bewildering to
choose a few for special mention. Wis
ions Of fair women in trailing empire
gowns of pale blue, apricot, peacock
green and white satin pass by on their
way through the corridor to the music
room. Queen Quenevere herself. in her
silken gown OF "sea blue shoaling into
green." could not appear more regal
than do some of these queenly women.
Among many beautiful women at the
Marlborough-Blenhei is Mrs. c. w.
dark crowned head rose above a gown
of black and silver. Mrs. Davidson of
New York wore champagne coiored
wolfe over howered silk, with enbroid-
cred pale blue bands, a black hat with
blue ostrich feathers.
Mrs N. G. du Pont and daughter of
Wilmington, Del, the wife Of we'll
known powder manufacturer, sat near.
Miss du Pont appeared in a simple gown
of white.
Mrs Knapp Of Baltimore wore taupe
colored chiffon, with hat with yellow
plumes.
A color seen In several exclusive-look-
ing gowns is something to be described
Mr.. and Mrs. Studebaker Of Chicago are
at the Marlborough with their son and
daughter-in-law. Mrs. Studebaker. jr.,
wore delicate heliotrope chiffon with a
dower-laden hat.
II one has ever experienced the pleasure
Of watching Palm Sunday or Easter
parade from the esplanade Of the Marl-
borough, where. comfortably ensconced In
one Of the big inclosed chairs. one can
choose either to look at the ocean or the
many pretty women, he has something to
live for.
Miss Hazel Mcdonald Is here with
her mother. Mrs. c. F. Mcdonald OF Pitts
burg. Miss Hazel Is slim and straight
with delicate chiseled features. and af-
fects tailor-made gowns.
At the Traymore there are ever so many
delightful looking young women In horse
show gowns. Miss Marie Katherine Law
/
and very handsome empire dress no.
ticed in the Traymore music room was OF
raspberry colored satin, richly embroidered
in gray. with gray chiffon sleeves. ;.
The former Postmaster General and
Mrs. James Gary, with the sister OF the
former. Mrs H. P. Horton of Baltimore.
are guests at the Traymore
1t was a thoughtful idea of the archi-
tect of the Traymore to provide those
pretty differently colored reception rooms
so that the knowing young women can
select the one to sit in that best becomes
her own gown for that evening. The
rooms are green. rose pink. blue, ETC., and
you seldom see woman make mistake
as to the one to sit In. Have you ever
been up on top Of the Traymore on a
moonlight night, such as we had this
week? There may be more magnificent
views in the world. but. have never seen
visible makes the twinkling lights Of the
great Boardwalk seem tiny and inconse-
Quential.
At the st. Charles two prettily dressed
young women. one wearing large black
hat and a pale pink satin empire gown.
and the other pale blue satin. were
pointed out as the daughters Of Mrs Nool-
man Of New York city.
At the Chelsea are a number OF Pitts
burg people, among them being Mr.. and
Mrs. W. s. Flower, Mrs. Robert Jsnison
and daughters and Miss Darley.

make a man Of her husband. We hear
much about self-made men. 1t might do
US good to hear more about Avife,made
