The Washington times., 1914-10-18

Cowan has resumed her studies at
Holton Arms. where she is taking an
elective course. She will, however, llay
round with the younger crowd a little
and break the ice for a formal debut
next season.
I understand that the Edward Fell
loves will not come back to Washington
this winter They are in England some
where. and nobody seems to know just
when they will return nor just what
their plans are. Mr.. Fellowes, You
know. was master of hounds Of the Itidi
ing Club-in fact, he still is, as far as I
can find out Anyway no one else las
been appointed to succeed him. He sue
ceeded Walter Tuckerman, the first
NJ. F., II. Of the club. which has only
been in existence a little while: indeed,
the pack is only two years old.
The motion picture venture in the
Riding Club building was not a great
success, and was soon called off. Re-
pairs are now being made, and the ring
will shortly be ready for use. though
there will be no formal opening of the
club. AS q matter Of fact, it has been
open all summer-that is, the stables,
etc.-for the use Of stay-at-home men,
bers.
s.
Madge Pickett Stokes and her mother
have gone to Atlantic City for several
weeks. and know one young man who
is disconsolate. hear he has been in
tending to leave town for long time,
so maybe now he will be able to tear
himself away. Mr.. Stokes is staying on
at the Shoreham to superintend the al
terations Of the house in Massachu-
sets avenue, which they have recently
purchased. I say alterations. but they
are practically rebuilding. and the house
promises to be delightful. The work is
painfully slow, however, Madge tells me,
and they have really no idea when they
can take possession.
d
Edith Oracle has gone to New York
for the marriage Of Gordon Hammers
Iey's sister, Katherine, and Samuel Neil
son Hinckley, Of Hampstead, L. l., which
is scheduled for Thursday of next week.
Katherine spends most Of her time at
Rhinebeck, where she and her brother
have a lovely place-Edith visited them
there last summer; but she decided to
have the wedding in New York, as it
is SO IuuCu ulOIc Convenient Luz ici
friends. The ceremony will be perform
ed at Grace Church. and will be follow
ed by a reception at the town house Of
the Hammersleys.
Another wedding in which Edith Is
particularly interested is the marriage
Of Agnes Griswold Landon. daughter OF
MI. and Mrs. Henry Hutton Landon,
and Moses Taylor Pyne, jr., which will
take place next Tuesday. She will also
attend a house party somewhere in the
country, before coming home next week.
This time Simon Peter stays home, as
there is a curious prejudice against dogs
at weddings.
One girl I know, however, rose su-
perior to that prejudice, for at Helen
Heyl's wedding her dog, Garry Owen"
a beautiful Gordon setter, was very
much in evidence. He took up his stand
under the table in the dining room and
got more than his share of the wedding
cake, Judging from the number of people
whom I saw surreptitiOusly feeding him.
-.
Now. honey, / must betake myself to
dinner. 7 hope you will have good
time at White Sulphur, which Is gen
erous Of me. as / think you might have
STAYED on with me. Give my love to
Alice and don't forget to stop over on
your way home.
Yours faithfully,
JEAN ELIOT.
