~ party out at Miss Violet Oakley's
studio this afternoon will be wonderful?
Miss Edith Wynne Matthison is going
to give a costume recital Of Shake
spearean heroines at half after 4 o. clock.

A NUMBER of people went up to
"A Boston this week for young
Quincy Shaw's wedding. You know he
is the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Quincy A.
Shaw and he married Augustine Van
Wickle on Tuesday in old South Church.
Boston. But do you remember who his
mother was? None other than pretty
Sallie Pemberton. sister of Miss Caro-
Tine Pembcrton. Ralph Pemberton and
daughter of the late Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry Pemberton. You remember the
old Pemberton house on Locust street.
which. since the family lived there. has
been bought as an annex to the school
conducted by the Sisters of Notre
Dame. on South Nineteenth street?
Sallie Pemberton was one of the very
prettiest girls in Philadelphia in her
debutante season. which was some
twenty five years more or less ago. l
have been told. If am not mistaken
she was great friend Of Allie Leidy.
who was the adopted daughter of old
DR.. Joseph Leidy. and who married
Francis Noble and went west to live.
She died some fifteen years ago and her
husband. who has since died, married
Miss Emily Potter. of this city, who
was about the age of Mrs Shaw and the
first Mrs. Noble.
Ralph Pemberton. who is. of course.
an uncle of Quincy Shaw. Jr.. went on
to the wedding and was one. of the
ushers, and Henry Brinton Coke, Jr.,
who knew Quincy at college was another
usher.
