Most OF the larger entertainments
given are in their honor.
Mrs Nicholas Longworth, who was |
formerly Alice Roosevelt, and her sis
ter-in-law, the Countess de Cham |
brun, are at the Springs, and both |
have given large events in honor Of |
the Underwoods.
l first met Mrs. Underwood sew
eral years ago and she captivated me
Immediately. Each time / have met
her since then her charm has grown
upon me. I can readily see where this
clever Southern woman could out
shine even the vivacious Alice Roose-
welt at the National Capital.
- ARLY last July a friend of mine
told me that Katherine Force
and Henry E. Harnickell were
secretly engaged, and that they would
be married before another year. This
week her statement was almost borne
out by the announcement Of the en-
gagement, the only difference being
that the marriage will probably not
take place until late August or early
September.
Miss Force is the sister Of the pres
ent Mrs John Jacob Aston who was
so tragically widowed by the sink
ing Of the Titanic. The two sisters
have been almost inseparable since
that terrible event.
At one time Miss Katherine, 1t was
said, was engaged to young Vincent
Aston, son of her sisters husband, but
more than year ago, my informant
told me that such a thing was abso-
lutely absurd.
Miss Katherine, l am told is a love-
ly girl, and she has my best wishes.
