Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1916-03-28


S.net last night at the metropolitan
onera House, and it was wonderful
-, rerformance, let me tell you. Most
,to boxes were occupied by the reg.
~ holders. who entertained quite a
-.,r,ber of persons from out of town.
ar. and Mrs. James Francis Sullivan
-. IN their box with Frances and
T.,o declare frankie looks younger
- dav. She and Leta and Mr.. Sulli-
- have Just lately returned from
,,.rona. Cuba, where they had quite a
.Aorf,il time, I understand. Mrs,
r,,oiter Brooks, Jr., was with Mr.. and
~, stotesbury and Mr.. Stotesbury's
s.,obter. Mrs. Mitchell, was also in
.heir box. A most exquisite gown Of
s-.,dou yellow was worn by Mrs. Randall
storqan. which just blended i'm with her
.n,endid titan coloring. The Henry
,,1nton Coxes came home last week
s-on the South; Mrs Coke was looking
worv well in black lace and satin. The
,rbole Tower family was en- evidence,
Atra Tower in pale blue, Helen in a rose
,iuh and Gertrude in green tule, with
a land of. silver in her hair.
Mrs. Edgar Scott, in an exquisite
Gown of gray tulle and embroidery,
,ooked very charming. Her sons were
Nth her. and Mary Stewart, the second
laughter of the Antonio Stewards.
II was really a wonderful house, in
shite of the fact that so many were
avay, still in the South or down at the
shore. and the audience was most en-
thusiastic.
II do not think have ever seen such
wonderful weather as that on Sunday
and yesterday in Atlantic City. Loads
Of people went down over the weekend
and stayed on for a few extra days.
Indeed, the Boardwalk yesterday was al.
most as full as on Sunday afternoon.
About this time of year next seasons
buds come conspicuously to the fore,
and should predict that among the
most popular will be two 1 saw in At.
lantic City. Mary Brooke is one of
them and she is a sumner. She and
ner IaLn6T anu IllOllleI anu Euult were
down for the day on Sunday. l saw
them as they We're leaving the Tray
more after dining there. Mary is a de-
cidedly out-of-doors type of girl, whole
some and very pretty. She had on a
fetching suit of light blue tyrolienne
wool and silver fox furs.
Another coming deb is Lorraine Gra-
ham, who, with her younger sister, was
down also. She is decidedly artistic,
and has quite bit of histrionic talent.
This little future deb was wearing a
smart suit of dark blue gabardine and
yellow jonquils was most becoming to
her dark hair and rich coloring.
Saturday night was very gay. They
have opened the new Peacock grill
room, next to the wonderful Submarine
Cafe at the Traymore, and never have
seen such peculiar effect as the cell.
Ing of mirrors produces. Imagine dane.
ing on ones head, so to speak; it really
was fascinating, to say the least. The
floor is made of polished red tiles, and is
wonderful for dancing, and everybody |
one knew was there. The Ned Buckleys
are stopping at the hotel, and so We're
the William Rowlands.
Mrs. Charles Edward Ingersoll and |
the youngest Ingersoll boy l saw on |
Saturday, and Jack Potter was with his |
aunt also.
Tommy Robinson is happy looking 4
person walking along by his little /
iancee. who Is most attractive. She |
Is Eloise Orme. of Washington. 1t |
came to me with quite a shock how
very little we had realized what a
real hero Albert Kennedy was, in the
sad accident which happened to Cath
crime Cassard before the Bal Masque,
nearly three weeks ago, when l saw him
on the Boardwalk with both hands still
Dandaged up. Just think, he has been
virtually helpless all that time, and TO
near that with his hands as badly
burned as that, he was the one who ran
oPer to the Rittenhouse, where there
vas convention of doctors, and
brought some one back with him 10 poor
title Miss Cassard, who, by the way,
vas only pronounced out of danger last
week. They tell me she is most won
ieftuliy brave, though suffering in
ensely great deal of the. time, and
slh never murmur.
10 return to Atlantic City, was so
iiad to see Mrs. Bob Large on the
'asino pavilion taking a sun bath from
ny comfy chair in the Traymore sun
'aVilon. Mrs. Large has been so i'll
nat her friends feared at first she might
lot recover, but now she is almost on
ne we'll list.
me Gustavus Remaks, with Mar
afe' and Caroline, We're down over the
'eek-end' and Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred Clay
'efe stopping at the st. Charles. Al
Osether' there was quite colony of
drinking in the salt air.
