The Glover baby was christened the
other day-dear me, it scarcely seems
possible. but it must have been nearly
two weeks ago. The young Carroll
Glovers selected two names for their
small daughter, Marian irene. the first
for the mother, who was Marian Wise,
and Irene for Mrs. Glover's aunt, Mrs
Newlands. with whom she made her
home before her marriage. The christ
ening ceremony took place at st. Al
bans Church and afterward there was
a breakfast at the attractive home the
young people have recently, built near
Westover.' Mr.. and Mrs. Charles c.
Glover's place.
OF course Mr.. and Mrs. Glover were
there-they think their grandchild' is
the only baby in the world-also Sena-
tor and Mrs. Newlands; and Mr..
Glover's aunt. Mrs. Shrivcr, dear old
lady over ninety years old, was one OF
the most interested guests.

Listen. Susan, to a tale of woe, but
don't you ever say told you. It's about
Major Lowe, and I'll give it to you just
as 1t reached my ear. The major, It
seems. was in New York just prior to
the sailing of Henry Ford's Argosy OF
Peace. He suddenly conceived the idea
of telling Mr.. Ford Just how the whole
affair impressed him as a man and q
soldier. l think he was afraid that he
might be took up for misuse Of tie
mails If he put his burning thoughts
down on paper. Anyway, he called In
person, found Mr.. Ford out and de-
parted after leaving his card. Scene
two shows the gallant major, with
scorn in his heart for the whole per-
Torrance, looking over the papers, to
find his name well up in the list OF the

sending incendiary matter through the
| malls. Moreover, none or his toro"oWn-

am told that the Htneys shy when
they meet him In the street.
