me home OF Mrs. Edward X. Rowland, at
Radnor. Mrs. Rowland has rented the
house 20 the Brookes, and is living in
New York this year, you know. Then
Mrs. Persifor Frazer has sent out the in
xitations for her granddaughter, Maria,
xho is the daughter OF Percy Frazer.
Her mother, you know. was Miss Mary
welsh. who married Corlies Morgan after
her divorce from Percy. and died several
wears ago. IL Maria resembles her mother
Al ali she is sure to be very pretty.
Another delightful tea will be given
Al the Acorn Club on November ie. to
introduce Katherine Emily Tyson. She
q the eldest daughter of the Rev. Stuart
tyson, and . late wife, who was Miss
Katherine Emily Rosengarten, so her
family connection in this city is very
vide. She is the granddaughter of the
late Mitchell George Rosengarten. and,
therefore. a niece Of Mitchell and Harold
Rosengarten, and is, of course. a great
niece of the much.loved "Uncle Joe" and
Aunt Fanny" of that name and the nu-
merous other aunts, uncles and cousins.
Then, on the Tyson side. there are many
sunts and uncles. Her aunt, Mrs. Her
man Denckla, will chaperon her during
the winter, and she is bringing out her
daughter Pauline this year also. There
we're Ave Tyson girls and the one brother
stuart Miss Carrie Tyson married
Percy Drayton. and Miss Patty Tyson is
Mrs. Brentwood Smith. Miss Mary and
Miss Esther did not marry. but Miss
Edith became Mrs. Herman Denckla.
You know how beautiful these sisters
are, SO Katherine has a goodly ancestry
Of wonderful looks. Her grandmother on
the Tyson side was Miss Mary Stuart,
q sister of the late Mrs. Cuyler Patter-
son, who was Miss Nellie Stuart
Katherine is at present the guest Of the
Floyd Tomkinses at their home, 1904 Wal
nut street.
Don't tell me women are lacking in
nervei I heard a screaming story last
week of bad scare three attractive
( women from Philadelphia had while mo-
toring this summer just outside OF Win.
ter Harbor. They were going easily
Along the road when suddenly turning a
sharp curve four men, evidently much
the worse for wear in the matter Of
spirits, stepped out into the road and
called out that if they attempted to go
on they would follow. OF course, said
three damsels were scared pink, and
started tearing along the road like sixty,
and as they went they removed their
Jewels TO place of safety Finally
they came to a bad place in the road
and, hitting a huge boulder, the engine
refused to go further. They we're ter
ribly frightened and started TO run. Ny
dears, they ran four miles and finally
came 10 a farmhouse, where they tele.
phoned TO BILLY" for another car. When
they went later for the damaged car
they found that the men had followed and
had taken most of the tools out of the
box. So It wasn't so funny after all. II
was the getting the Jewelry safely put
away that killed me. Let us hope they
had on extra heavy silk. for the usual
ones are pretty thin these days, and the
Jewels probably worked about bit. It's
wonder they did not cut through. Don't
talk TO me about women losing their
presence Of mind; witness this story.
