JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPT 2
Large Garden Fete for Abingdon Hospital on June
b Unique Affair-Many Real Novelties
Among the Features

IDEALLY, the garden party given by
N the womens Auxiliary Of Arlington
Memorial Hospital, which will be held on
June 5 at Latham Park on Old York
road, oak Lane, promises to be more than
smart
Believe me, these women have got some
ideas, and new ones, too, at that, and
they are going TO carry them out. First
and foremost, there will be the darling.
est Chow puppy with auburn curls whicl,
will be chanced off. And imagine my
dears, he is no ordinary pup, not by any
means whatsoever, for his name is none
other than Joffre and about his canine
neck there will be suspended a Joffre
medal, and so you know how exciting II
would be TO win him. I do not know
who will rattle him off, but I am told
that an authenticated miss is likely to be
chosen, for one must have a symphony of
color, you know
I hear there is TO be another silk stock.
ing table. DO you remember, last year. or
was it the year before, when all the men
were busily buying silk stockings for ten.
cent paddles and giving to whosoever
would accept? Some little harvest that!
Let's go!
One thing the committee is to have on
chances will be luminous watch for
trench warfare. You know the kind l
mean. 1t has a luminous face and lumi.
nous numbers to be seen in the dark The
dial is unbreakable and the strap non.
absorbent. As l said, when heard about
II, what n vocabulary one acquires these
days, when one learns the wonderful
things for which trench warfare is re-
sponsible. SO If your very "bestest" is
going to war, take a chance on getting
him watch of this kind.
A trench mirror has also been donated
TO the cause, made of nonbreakabe
latema, which is a sort Of metal highly
polished you know; such as those used
by the Roman matron of oden days
Six little kiddies of six years Of age,
dressed as Red Cross nurses, will sell war
bread, known in Russia as "chory klep"
and in Sweden as "knauch brod," both
cultural sounds, meaning, in plain Amer
ican, black bread. War cake will also be
sold, that is eggless, butterless, milkless
and flourless cake. sure am curious to
see them, and goodness knows how soon
we may have to eat both If this war lasts
long, and we have no reason to believe it
will be a short affair, so far as l can
figure things out.
