T'HE Supper Club will open on Satur
- day night, and ! hear of quite a
number OF people who will entertain.
The music will start at s o'clock FOR
dinner. and continue ON through the
evening for supper. so those who wish
to go in after the theatre will have
dancing and eats late. ms before. and
those who want TO go early and come
home early win be able to have dinner
at s.
A mighty nice arrangement. me
thinks. though il it is as much fun rs
before the. war many will go for both
einner and supper, say I.
Mrs. Hutchison Scott is in charge.
as before. and Mr.. John G. Groome.
Mr.. Edward Cassatt, Mr.. Sydney
Hutchinson, Mr.. Lewis Parsons and.

LUFI WIDENER made her debut
yesterday afternoon at a tea which
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph +.
}Nidener, gave at Lynnewood Hall, the
Widener estate in Elkins Park. The
tea differed from other debutnnte par
aties in that only Mrs. Widener and
Fiji received. No debutantes were in
the receiving party, those who attended
Fif looks a little ~like her mother.
though she is not so small. but she is
dark, too, and has large laughing eyes.
The house was certainly gorgeous with
flowers, and Eff looked sweet in white
satin and tulle, and her bouquet of
pink roses was lovely. OF course, the
picture galleries were thrown open, and
''The Mill had almost as much atten-
tion as the debutante. 1t is a wonder
ful painting, that's sure!
THERE are two debutante parties to-
day. Mrs. Gray Bolton gave a
luncheon for Elizabeth Garrison at her
home, 2109 Pine street, and this eve
ming Mrs. Howard Lewis gives dance
at the Acorn Club for Emile Noble,
her niece.
Emile Noble made her debut at
tea given by her grandmother, Mrs.
Harry Potter, on November "a at the
Acorn, you remember. The guests to-
night will be of the debutante set, and
| expect it will be very pretty af-
fair. The danceroom at the Acorn is
SO well shaped for dance, and the
hangings Of old rose throw a beautiful
light on the dancers, don't you think

nID you stop in at the oriental ba-
~ znar yesterday. at 1915 Chestnut
street? / never saw such Il beautiful
fair. The two sides of the wall are
lined with counters which have yellow
canopies and really glancing down from
the coffee loggia at the back of the store
toward the front door it looks just like
an eastern street.
Brownie Warburton was q peach in
her oriental garb. Miss Dickie had the
cutest walking doll you ever saw and
one that talked. and if Mrs. Chandler
did not help to beautify any customers
she certainly was not to blame. for
everything in the way of cosmetics and
rare perfumes was there, / really do
not think / have ever seen an idea so
we'll carried out. They even had an
eastern beggar going about calling
"Alms for the love of Allah ~ which
sounded to me as if the Turks were
about to help the Christian Armenians
after all. Would that it were so. But
those who have returned from there
recently say anything but that To
go back to the bazaar. it is wonder,
