ILL.,
young man she really loved. He.
proving UNEXPECTEDLY obdurate, left in
hun, and several days passed with
out word from him.
The girl, in deep distress, decided
to consult a fortune teller who was
in vogue just then. She was given
a small and mysterious package, with
instructions to wear II next her heart,
and whenever she met her friend to
clasp the charm" and to smile.
Garry out these instructions, and
your sweetheart will return and love
you more than ever" the fortune
teller promised.
In about two weeks an eager and
the fortune teller.
You were just right" she said. 1T
worked fine The first time 1 met
Tom he tried to bow in that offish
way he has, but l just felt Of my
charm and smiled at him. He GER
tainly looked surprised-but he called
me up that very night, and every
thing has been all right ever since.
When l begin to grow angry at any
thing he says, / remember to hold my
charm and smile, and then things
come right at once. 1t certainly is a
wonder, this charm wouldn't take
anything for it,"
And the girls smile held all the
charm in the world. The fortune-tell-
er, being human, smiled, too.
IN n interesting society chatterer in
~ a Washington paper had the
following comment last week on
a notable Atlanta wedding to- be.
which will interest everybody here:
by the way, must tell you that
Marion Smith, or Marion Hoke Smith,
as he usually terms himself is en-
gagged. Yes, to the sweet little girl
from his home town" who visits
Lucie Hoke Smith so often, and was
at Magnolia with them this summer
Sarah Brock Rawson. daughter OF
Mrs. William Clark Rawson, OF At
lanta. The Senator's family are de-
lighted, for Sarah has been like one
of the family for years and they all
love her. Last summer Mrs. Smith
told me that she was the dearest girl
in the world outside of her own girls,
and was so pleased that she was COM
ing up to visit them at their summer
place. The wedding is going to take
place on November IL in Atlanta, and
| guess the Smith family won't return
here to get settled for the winter until
afterward. Marion is making good J.
law in Atlanta, and the Senator and
Mrs. Smith are rightly proud Of their
only boy"
SN'T 1t sad that so many of At
lanta's beaus are beginning to let
their mustaches grow just when
the edict has gone forth from no less
an authority than Harry Lehr that
the mustache must go? Harry openly
declared while he was at Newport
this summer that mustaches were
outre, and long ones simply impossl.
BILE.
Anyway. it seemed that long one
were impossible-tO Atlantans-ever
before Harry said So for l do not
know of a man who has a long silker
mustache. All of the men who veal
mustaches wear them very, very
short, and some are very, very scant-
none of those huge affairs, you know
but just about two dozen hairs.
There's Neil Reid for instance. Hi.
exceedingly blond mustache doesn't
show off for all its worth, however
And Lamar HIS mustache also suf-
fers from the same disability as =
color However, John Mecaslin
Marsh Adair. Hal Hentz and John
Woodside, Jr., have black mustaches
which are cut and trimmed to the
regulation small size.
Roy Dorsey, l believe, has just be-
gun to grow a mustache, probably
having been in ignorance of M
Lehr's opinion to date. And l think
l saw Douglas Barnes with a hint o.
a mustache one day, though the next
time l saw him twas gone. Maybe
he heard of the edict, and then again
he may have become discouraged. But
most Atlanta men seem to frown upon
the style, without Harry Lehr's oppo-
sition, for very few of the younger
contingent wear an adornment on the
upper lip.
GRLS, you know there is such a
thing as talking too much. /
know you have heard the Jokes
about women's tongues so often you
think the subject is only a joke. But
| have found that most jokes have
some foundation in fact, especially
when they are as popular as the
women's tongue joke and the moth
Cl june
OF course, the debutante thinks she
has to chatter all the time in order
to amuse her escort But most OF
the older girls know better. How
ever, there are several in Atlanta
three and four year old set who talk
too much. One of these who has a
new electric would probably curtail
her conversation to some extent had
she heard the remark made to me
a few days ago, when | asked a mu-
tual friend-a young fellow whom she
had invited to go for a ride in her
new car-if he had accepted it.
Not yet" he replied. I'm waiting
until l am strong enough to bear all
the conversation that goes with the
ride"
Now that remark was a bit rude,
but | quote ii in order that girls who
have tendency to talk too much
may have the benefit of the hint.
I SUPPOSE it would greatly disgust
the young man in question were
he to hear me say that Atlanta s
handsomest young man was married
last week. Nevertheless this is what
all the women are saying of Harrison
Jones, whose marriage to Katherine
Gordon was the brilliant wedding OF
