THINK YOU'RE IN LOVE2

Don't believe a word about there being
''as good fish in the sea as ever were
caught" writes a contributor to the
Philadelphia Record. 1t is a silly and
vulgar old saying, unworthy Of any true
lover repeating it. Know that the man
you love is a king among men, and
should be treated 50, and see to 1t that
you make yourself a queen worthy to be
his mate.
Know that love is the most precious
gem that any, lover could offer you. and
once you accept 1t at least take the
ordinary precautions that you would take
with jewels to see that it Is not mis-
placed or neglected.
II the love that you think you feel
does not make Of you a new and more
generous creature than you have ever
been before, beware Of it. Either your
lover lacks sincerity or your own hon.
esty will bear looking into.
The girl who stoops to conquer love
remember this-is never put on a pedes-
tai and worshipped by the man she seeks
to ensnare.

SLOUGH NO LONGER
FASHIONABLE STYLE

Since the protruding stomach and
slouch are going "out OF style" let US
hope that in time it will really become
fashionable to brace up. Dropping shoul-

call them healthful. and It will be a re-

DEFECTS Oh BEAUTIES, WHICH

red hair, and moles are an Irresistible
charm sometimes. Wrinkles are not

Gen. and Mrs. George Barnett are most
comfortably established in their quarters at
the Marine Barracks now. Mrs. barnett told
me the cutest story the other day about her
young son, which shows that he has in
herited his mothers native wit. She went
over to Baltimore to get some things out OF
her house there and returned carrying by
hand two charming little Thorwaldson statu-
ettes When she came in he wanted to know
what they were. Night and Day." she told
him. Its good thing they are not Night
fall and Daybreak," said the youngster.
Washington girls are branching out in
lots of directions these days. Did you know
Marie Newton had gone on the stage? 1t
is so, and, what's more, she has been here
all week with Richard Carle and Hattie Will
lams, in THE Doll Girl" though don't be-
lieve many people knew it. She is chorus
girl as yet but is Hattie Williams under
study also, and, they tell me, very good in
her part. don't wish Miss Williams any i'll
luck, but | wish she'd sprain her ankle or
get the grippe, and give Marie her chance.
She is the type to be beautiful on the stage,
and, hear, has good deal of talent.
Margaret Strother Smith (you remem-
Der her, don't you?) is another Washington
girl who is gracing comic opera chorus.
She is with "Sari" and is to have quite fat
part when the show goes on the road this
summer.
We have grand opera singer among
our society girls, too. Elizabeth Reside
has made a wonderful success and will short
ly 20 abroad to win fresh laurels, and now
comes along Elizabeth Howry, with lovely
voice, and the promise of great success on
the concert stage. She has been studying
in New York with Isadore Luckstone, and
next winter will be one of the three pupils
whom Madam Sembrich will teach. Surely

soloist at the Washington Symphony con-

there arc to be several attendants, Emily

Signs Of spring are here: crocuses, straw
hats, and spring fever and the latest mani
festation is toy balloons. Walking up the
street yesterday, i saw dozens of them.
All the children had them, and in Dupont
circle l saw young Ten Eyck Wendell jr,
with a spaniel pup decorated with two bal
looms tied to his collar. It was funny to
watch its antics, but finally another pup got
into the game and the balloon suddenly and
violently burst Also up Connecticut avenue

looking youth, trailing bright red, balloons
over their shoulders. They attracted lots OF

Susan, do you remember, years ago,
when we used to 60 to the little church in
the country, that could never keep my eyes
off nice, big, good-looking man-our
neighbor, Blair Leland his two little boys?
Well, I'll confess now that have never
outgrown my childish admiration for Senator
Lee and was perfectly delighted when he
came to the Senate, but it was something Of
a shock when the engagement of Brooke,
the biggest Of the little boys, was announced
recently. Why, it made me feel hundred.
l was a grown girl when he was running
around in knickers, but l will say this for
myself, tiiat he is marrying awfully young;
indeed, he is still at Princeton. Brooke is
dear boy and is tremendously popular all
over Montgomery county-you know, they
live at Silver Spring, in fine old mansion
that has been in the family for years. He is
keen for baseball and used to manage Ia
nous team before he went of to college.
| don't know the girl, Miss Wilson, from
Upper Marlboro; but her pictures are love-
ly. There is to be country wedding at the
brides home and then the two youngsters viii
set up housekeeping with Senator Lee, at
Silver Spring.
Before close this letter must tell you
that the Sunshine and Community Society
will assist in receiving at the affair at the
Woman's Clinic Club rooms on Monday
afternoon. Everyone is so interested IN the
clinic and you would be, too, if you were
here to attend. =

one, the at-home card which read so: AT
home after the first Of June, Echo Point,
Wheeling, West Virginia"
Then one small one read so: Please
present this card at Saint Johns Church on
Tuesday, the fourteenth Of April"
The other card, small and written by
hand, was: Reception Immediately after the
ceremony, the New Willard. The company
Of is requested. r. S. v. P"
The plate line on every card gave very
elegant finish.
Edith Oracle had better watch out She
broke little mirror last week, and now she
tells me she is going to be bridesmaid
twice in one week. She will then have been
a bridesmaid three times, and she was
maid of honor once; so, as said, she had
better watch out. But, then again, do not
believe in signs, and, anyway, not when one
so attractive as Edith is concerned.
She will serve Anna Portner and Agra
Bennett in the same week.
Did you know that the Postmaster Cen
eral is grandfather for the second time? A
little son was born away down in San An
tonic, Tex, to Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Van
Wyck Negley. This is their second son, and
he is named for his paternal grandfather,
William Negley. The other little boy IS
named for the Postmaster General.
How time does fly! 1t seems such short
time since Laura Burleson was debutante,
and now think of her the mother Of two chill
dren! You remember her wedding, l know
on Easter Sunday morning in St. Thomas
Church. The idea Of being married on Eas-
ter Sunday morning early was a little out of
the ordinary, but it was mighty sweet, and
the weddins was very impressive.
By the bye, Susan, that attractive Roberta
Downing from Philadelphia is visiting Edith
now, and Miss Clifford has just returned to
New York, after visit Of week or so.
Miss Clifford always wears white. In fact,
dare say never saw her in anything else.
She wears white velvet and corduroy so
much, and it is wonderfully becoming
:. With all the weddings scheduled for the
next few weeks it is no wonder that there
should be some confusion Of dates. i heard
some one lament the other day that Julia
Heyl's tea dance for Maitland Marshall was
the same day and the same time as Anna
Portner's wedding, and Agra Bennett and
Margaret Worthington are to be married on
the same day and in the same church. For
tunately, Agra plans to have noon we'd
ding, and Margaret's comes off at night, so
there won't be any very serious trouble. BY
the way, hear Gertrude Gordon and Estelle
Crane are to be bridesmaids for Frances
Brooks. Both are strangers to Washington,
Gertrude having only recently returned from
Europe, while Estelle has been away all
