Next day, thousands of warm-heart-
ed New Workers were packed along
the Water Front all the Way from the
Battery to Grants Tomb, giving royal
Welcome to the Corn-fed Pilgrims. At
any rate, they were Packed.
When Elan and Claudine entered
the Hotel, the discerning Bell-Hops
had them stand back until the others
had registered.
They were Important, but they did
not carry any Signs.
Elan should have worn the Letter
of Credit on the outside.
After they had taken the Imperial
Suite and invited all the Servants on
the Twelfth Floor to Silver Shower,
they found that the Call-Bells worked
fine. If ELAN moved in the general
direction of Button, handsome
West Pointer would fit in with a
pitcher of Iced Water and then hover
around for his Bit.
Both realized that the first requisite
was lot of new money.
with Spoon and ordered Garcon to
hurry up the Little Birds with a
Flagon of ST. Regis Bubbles to come
along as Drench, they realized that
they did not look the Parts.
Elan still combed his Hair in the
style approved by the BARRIERS Guide
| and Manual for 1887.
Claudine was fully clothed as far up
as her Neck and didn't have the
Nerve to hoist the Lorgnette.
Elan went out and had himself
draped by a swagger Tailor who was
said to do lot of Work for the Van
derbilt boys.
In his Afternoon Wear he resembled
| the Manager of Black-Goods Depart
ment.
After donning the complete Soup
and Fish, known in swozzey circles as
Thirteen and the Odd, he didn't look
as much like a Waiter as one might
have supposed. He looked more like
the Bus who takes away the Dishes.
Claudine yielded herself up to a
Modiste The good Woman from out
| of Town was a trifle Long in the
Tooth at this stage of our Narrative,
but Nine. Bunk convinced her that
| she was about half way between the
| Trundle Bed and her First Party.
She ordered all the chic Novelties
recommended for Flappers, so that
Elan began to walk about ten feet
behind her, wondering vaguely if his
Family was still respectable.
The new Harness and a careless
habit of counting Money in Public
soon gave them an enviable Reputa-
| ton in the Principal Cafes. although
they could not observe that they were
moving any nearer to the Newport
Colony.
The shift from Pigs Knuckles to
Ambrosia and Nectar had been little
sudden for Elan, and sometimes
when they we're darting hither and
thither, from Road-House to Play
House and thence to the Louis XIV
| Sitting Room by way Of the Tango
| Joint, he would moan little and act
| like a Gutter.
Whereupon Claudine would jack
him up and tell him to pull out his

Gravy came under the head of Regu
lar Food.
She could turn out Waff1es as long
as there was Customer in sight. The
Biscuits on which she specialized were
light as Down.
The things she fixed to Eat were
Fine and Dandy, but she never had
heard of Cuisine. When you took
her away from regular Chow and
made her tackle something Casserole
or En- Tasse, she blew.
Also there was a Maid who should
have belonged to the Stevedores
Union.
She could pack Victuals in from
the Buttery and slam them down on
the Table, a la Commercial Hotel
but when it came to building up an
intricate Design with an ingrowing
Napkin, three Spoons, four Knives
five Forks, and all the long-stemmed
Glasses, to say nothing of an artful
pyramiding Of Cut Flowers around the
Candelabra, then she was simply fe
male Blacksmith.
Claudine would throw a Dinner
once in while, just to subdue the
| Wife and Daughter of the Nationa
Bank, but the Crew would nearly al
ways crab the Entertainment
With the Support accorded by the
bone-headed Staff, she had a fat
Chance to give correct Imitation Of
Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish.
All during the nine Courses she hae

Pay as You Weigh Social.

Sixey-seyen flushed faces, sixty seven throats fairly hoarse with laughter. 135 srarhing eyes, and a neat sum added to the treasury these were the results of the 'Pay as you weigh" social given by the local Christian Endeavor Union at the Christian church Friday night. This delightful affair was assuredly a suc- cess. Why? Because Miss Josephine Brown rendered several beautiful piano solos; because Mir. Pete Bum pass celoist, Mrs. Pete Bumoas pi- anist and Mr. Jack Goslee, yiolinist, rendered two splendid trios; because Miss Fife Bledsoe Mir, Lund and Mr. Chas. Goslee sang much appra- aiated solos; because Miss Jewel Jop- lin recited with wonderful effect one dramatic and two side-splittne sto- ries: because "brain twisting" games were intermingled with the above; because to be exact. there was "someuhmg doing every mnute.'
 A novel and exciting football game was played between the heayyweights of the First Presbyterian and the Christian C. E. societies. A table was the field and empty eggs were foot balls, and instead of being kicked, the egg shells were blown a"'oss the field, rovoking mucH mir The Presbyterian team was composed of Rr Robt Pollard, MT. Jake Ryan and Mr. Earl Vornadore. The Christian team included Rev. c. D. Serril, Mir. Elsie Sigman and Mr Jack Watson. In spite of the well known football abilities of Jake Ryan, the popular school teacher, the Christian team won. to 1. The Presbyterians at tributed the loss of the game to the fact that Rev Mr. Serrill was on the Christian team, preachers being very windy sometimes Appropriate prizes were awarded to the champion fat, tall and short persons. After al. ro- priate refreshments were served, the happy crowd dispersed looking for ward to the next Endeayor social to be given al the First Presbyterian church in the near future.

For many generations the Panama hat was woven in one shape, and it took much urging and good manage ment on the part of those who bought and imported the genuine South Amer ican Panama hat to persuade the na- tive makers to produce other shapes. But finally this was accomplished and now one may buy a Panama in almost any shape Not all the hats known by this name are South American prod ucts, (there are Panamas and Pana- masl, but whether made in Japan or Connecticut, or brought from it's na tive home the Panama is a beautiful product
 | It is and is likely to continue to be the ideal hat for midsummer outing wear, for sports and for travelling. 1t is soft enough to be comfortable and uncrushable and firm enough to need no support. It is made with the inten- ton of fitting the head, as to the crown. and for shading the eyes, as to the brim But in the past few seasons 1t has been possible to get Panamas with very wide brims, and these have added one more to the number of wde-brmmed straws used for the picturesque flower-laden millinery of midsummer.
 But the hat that is dearest to the heart of lovers of the Panama is that which keeps as close as possible to the original, mannisb shape or va

riation that does not seem to change it's character. Three popular shapes selected from this seasons showing of Panamas are illustrated here. They are to be recommended as practical and becoming and correct in type.
 These hats are usually very simply trimmed with bands of silk, ribbon or linen Flat rosettes or hanging scarf ends are favorite decorations, and not to be improved upon. The wide brimmed shapes are sometimes swathed with malines and finished with huge bows of this fabric. Occa- sionally flowers or feathers adorn them But owbrimmed Panamas are trimmed in the simplest manner possible.
 The fine South American Panama, if we'll cared for will stand many seasons wear. These hats can be cleaned and reblocked if one wishes to change the shape. But it is better to swathe the hat in a wide silk or chif- ion scarf than to reblock it, and to wear it in its original shape. A hat so fine, so shapely and sensible will always look well.
 It seems a pity to wear out hat whose making involves such pains taking and wonderful work, by using hat pin. In a fine hat 1t is better to sew hat fasteners in the band and secure it to the head in this way. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
