HATTIE HIGHLANDS GOSSIPS ABOUT THE
SOLDIER BOYS AND THE DEBUTANTESl

/ BY the way, 1 hear that our border
situation now, as in the past, has had
much to do with the upsetting of we'd
ding plans of brides and bridegrooms in
the service. Several dates have been
advanced or postponed and wedding at
tendants changed at the eleventh hour,
| all because sudden orders to some young
officers who were to have done peaceable
duty on the altar steps as best man or
in the church aisle as an usher.
Although the debutante list IL steadily
growing, I hear that several young girls
who had planned to be introduced early
in the season have prostponed the event
until later in the winter or maybe Few
will wait for another season. Now this
is great secret, and don't you dace
tell [ told you. But / hear it is because
SO many of our boys are away in the
army.
Speaking of border duty, | heard such
a funny thing few evenings ago and
it was SO very funny that I am sure
you will enjoy it, too. You know the
boys of Alabama infantry left few
days ago for Nogales, N. NJ. Well, one
of the boys told me the town was
named .No-Gals because for many months
after it was settled no women lived IN
the town, and that was how it got its
name Now, isn't that a joke? l have
friend who has visited the place and
says the word "Nogales' is Mexican and
means Land of Nuts He also SAYS
that the country is beautiful and is high
and dry, with many nut and cactus
plants. Just across the way is a little
Mexican town, forget the name now, but
the English meaning is BLACK water
and that the water is really almost black
Wasn't it real cute of our soldier boy
TO translate the name for us all in his
own way-and isn't that just like boy,
too?
Last week was made most noteworthy
by several interesting matrimonial an
nouncements and this week will be the
gayest of the fall, with weddings and
wedding festivities, besides several large
affairs, filling the calendar to the brim.
| just know that the manufacturers of
coats must be signing for cold weather
for while october sun shines warmly, the
tailored frock and the one piece dress
are by odds the most approved things
for the street wear.
/ heard one young fellow says: II know
the fur collars and capes provide coy
warmth about the throat and shoulders,
but often wonder If the wearers of the
gauzy chiffon sleeves are as comfortable
as they, look?'
My dear, the balls and dancing parties
have not as yet taken place on the So
cial calendar and as far as the bud
with their hearts longing for the brilliant
lights and gay music of the ball room,
and their eyes filled with visions of part
ners fairly elbowing each other FOR the
favor of a smile and the privilege of
the next dance, have been compelled 70
be content with luncheons and bridge
parties and to attend the various large
weddings of the season with another girl

However, I hear that next month will
be all that the heart of the most exact
ing debutante could desire, and from the
number of affairs which are being

state president of the Alabama di-
vision Of the U. D. c. Among the no.
tees Is the following from the Mo-
bile Register which says
Mrs. j. A. Rountree, first vice pres
ident of the Alabama division of the
United Daughters of the Confederacy,
is being Endorsed by the various local
chapters throughout the state for the
next president of the Alabama division.
Pelham chapter of Birmingham, of
which chapter Mrs. Rountree is a
charter member, has unanimously in
dorsed her and has called upon the
chapters throughout the state TO unani-
mously elect her at the next conven-
ton as the state president. She is a
charter member of the Alabama di-
vision, served for several years as re-
corder of crosses and at the genera
division of the u. D. C. was always re-
ferred to as the model recorder She is
woman of tact and ability and would
make most acceptable president for
the Alabama division"
The Birmingham Motor and Country
club announces that under the new man
agtment of the active members are being
organized into the various necessary COM
mittees.
This club" said Mr.. J. Edwin Haw-
kins, chairman of the advisory commit
tee, with it's 1000 members and the mag
nificent grounds of nearly 500 acres, and
the beautiful lake, together with the
three additional tennis courts just fin
ished, will provide wonderful diversity
of pleasures, ande recreations for the
members. The clubhouse is particularly
attractive with it's two immense log fire
places and the splendid dancing floor.
While this floor has been large enough
heretofore" Mr.. Hawkins remarked, rthe
increased attendance due to the pro-
gramme being prepared for the imme-
date future and the short winter season,
will, we are sure, compel the management
to build at once the big ballroom adjoin-
ing the clubhouse on the north side be-
tween the two wings, as provided in the
original plans"
Mr.. Hawkins is very enthusiastic over
the prospects and possibilities OF this
club for it's most successful season, and
says the members of his committee, who
are: Mr. Tom Estes, Mr.. j. A. Yates,
Mr. c. I. Smith, Mr.. Tom Pankey, Mr..
George d. Reynolds and Mr.. w. E. Nc
Clure, are all just as enthusiastic as him
self, and are now making up list OF
appointments of other committees to as
sist in developing to the fullest extent
the resources of this club for the enter
tainment and pleasure for its members.
Mr. Hawkins further stated that In adj
dition to the regular Thursday night
club dances, the members will be pro-
vided dances and parties on holidays and
other occasions. and at any time, day or
night, the clubhouse will be open for
any member to use for party or dance
without any charge whatsoever.
ION Sunday" Mr.. Hawkins said, there
will be an Edison concert between and
4:Sd o'clock by Mr. John Golding who is
here for few days. Mr.. Golding is di-
rect from the Edison laboratory in New
York and is conducting few special
concerts

IIWII thing | know all the news, as you
keep writing me to tell you all
that is going on down here. Well, think
1 know the kind of news you really want
not the really dignified society column
kind, but just the things you and would
cup of tea some afternoon.
One is given great liberty in letter
writing, but the art of telling all you
know should not be abused One of our
friends said few days ago: "You GER
tainly write enough about folks Hattie
Highlands Perhaps 7 de, but in talking
to you take advantage of the opportu
nifty to tell you of the many pleasant
friends whom 1 meet or from whom
often hear
There is no danger in telling you the
good things going the rounds and L
hope you will never hear the other side
of life. Your keen interest in every day
happenings of the people encourage me
to UPHOLD to you the home news and thus
my frequent letters, if an apology is in
order.
Before I begin to gossip let me tell you
that / am a bit wiser about what women
are doing today L had not thought
that Alabama had so many busy women
as L learned in the womans department
at our recent fair. There was such a
variety of industry-the women excelled
themselves and so much of the needle
encourag ing and makes worth while so
much stitching, then, too, the culinary
display indicated the housekeepers are
preparing for an emergency and high
prices, so much splendid preserved fruits
and vegetables. Usually much of this
exhibit is sold, am told, but this year
the housekeepers declared they needed
the stuff on their own pantry shelf.
Women are not SO frivolous as we
they are only mixing little pleasure
with duty.
Many who are entertaining are making
their own bonbons and are serving on
their own hand painted china The
women knew diversification before the
men agitated it.
I am glad to see the university is go-
ing to adopt the military feature, some
how the uniform places our boys on a
more equal basis and certainly adds to
the appearance of the awkward boy and
gives more grace and confidence in HIM
self OF course military discipline devel-
ops the man and gives him more pro-
found respect for details and incidently
he pleases his sweetheart better
Mothers who have sons who have gone
to the border are reconciled, now that
they have an opportunity for so splendid
trip and fine training. and when they
come home they will be prepared to bat
tie more heroically with the every day
problems.
