II Lyttleton Gould are to be married next
Saturday by Doctor Keeling at st. Peters
Church in Germantown? Ensign Gould
has been stationed in Pensacola, Fla, and
he and his bride will go there for the
winter. Isabel is peach Of a girl and has
nne character. I heard her talking to
number of girls last year urging them to
Join the league to do everything you do
in the very best way you can. She looked
mighty pretty and you felt she certainly
was doing her best. And that was example
right then and there, was 1t not?
+ Lyttleton is in the U. S. n. flying corps
and has been in the service since the be-
ginning Of the war. He is son of DR..
Elgin Gould, of New York, and from all
hear is a great favorite. Esther Howell
Toland, Isabel's sister, will be matron of
honor at the wedding. And she is simply
beautiful, SO it will be some stunning look
ing bridal party.
FTNIIE second night of opera was quite as
brilliant as the first Caruso always
draws a crowd, and then last night there
was the added excitement of seeing his wife,
as she was expected to come on. She was
Dorothy Benjamin, of New York, you

last summer by marrying the famous
aenor. She has a number Of friends in this
city, for she attended school in one Of, the
suburbs for few years. She is very good
looking, don't you think? But looks very
young.
She was in a box with Mr.. and Mrs.
thilds last night and wore a stunning
G9wn of black velvet, with red rose as
the only touch Of color. Her short fluffy
brown hair was caught back very simply
and becomingly with rhinestone pin. She
seemed to enjoy the opera thoroughly and
applauded her husband most enthusiasts
tically, for which you can't blame her for
a minute. There were some very hand
/ some gowns there last evening, and have
YOU noticed how popular red is? There
were red gowns Of all shades from bril-
liant carmine to dull rose, in velvet, satin
and not. thought Frances Sullivan looked
particularly well in turquoise blue satin
with a huge white feather fan. Mrs
Sullivan wore light blue, which with a
dog collar of diamonds Mrs. Herbert l..
Clark, who was in the Sullvans box, was
sowned in black net. Mrs. John w. Con-
verse wore black lace, and she looked per-
fectly stunning She was in Mrs. AleXan-
der Brlnton Coxes box. Major Jeter Hor-
ton, U. S. M. c., and Mrs Horton enter
tainsd in box. General and Mrs Waller
were in the audience. Mrs Waller in gar

TIME Bertram Lippincott box was attrac-
! tive. Sarah Biddie entertained in it
and had Helen Tower, whose engagement
to Major Robertson. of Nashville, Tenn,
was announced last week; Mrs. Radcliffe
Cheston, Jr, and Jean Bu1litt among her
guests. Sarah is certainly one stunning
looking person. She is SO sweet and un'
affected and beautiful, and the most per-
feet little mother to two Of the darlingest
kiddies you ever saw.
IND you know that the Plays and Play
Aers will have one of their delightful

so as to audience. 1t could not be, OF
course for the members Of the club are
equally divided in that respect-as many
men as women belong.
1T certainly is one delightful club.
