r MUST say the enclosing Of road
maps with invitations TO out of town
affairs Ia a great idea. Some people
did il few years ago, when there was
much entertaining and as pretty nearly
every one goes to out -of town tess or
parties in a motor, it IS a great con.
venience to know the easiest and most
direct way Of getting there.
Mrs. Isaac r. Davis, who will intro.
duce her daughter, Betsy Warren Davis.
on Friday afternoon. October 2, from
until O'Clock, out at her country pace
IN Penllyn, has sent a road map with
hef invitations, which shows one just
how to 60 from Chestnut Hill by way
OF the Bethlehem pike. Incidentally,
however, you better look out for said
pike from Fort Washington UP TO
Amber, and take cutoff on the Morris
road around to Butler pike and back
to Bethlehem beyond Amber. for they
are tearing up the Bethlehem pike.
not minute too soon, either; and
goodness knows, from the depth of the
trenches, there'll be no passing that way
even IL it is nearly two weeks off.
What wise plan for Mrs. Davis 70
choose the same day as the Henry
brinton Coxe's tea. 1t does make it so
much easier for the guests to 60 to two
teas in one afternoon out in the same
direction, than to have to drive from
Chestnut Hill to the Main Line and
back again to Penllyn or Gwynedd
Hill or wherever it may be on the North
Penn road all in one afternoon.

T HEAR that the Tommy Hsrts will
spend the winter with Mrs. Charles
Hart, Tomny's mother. at her home
on Twenty first street. You know they
have the dearest baby about four
months old. They we're in Cape May
with Mrs. Hart most of the summer
after MRrgaret's illness. She was
has now entirely recovered.
Speaking of the Harts makes me
think of Elizabeth Adams's wedding.
Sounds bit far fetched till you take
in the connection, does it not? But
then you see Mrs. Tom Hart was Mar
garet Smith, and her mother married
Elizabeth Adams's father some years
ago. After Mr.. Adams was killed in
a motor accident in Cape May. Eliza
beth went to live with her sister. Mrs.
George Harding and George and Phoebe
have now sent out the invitations for
EliZabeth's marriage to Snowden
Samuel, which is to take place on Oc-
tober 10. in st. James, Church.
Phoebe Harding's mother in law,
Mrs. George J. Harding has given her
house for the wedding reception which
is to be given for the immediate fami
lies and intimate friends at half after
~ o'clock. Good night. But they'll
have to rush to get into line in time to
receive the guests after the wedding,
won't they? It's only a quarter of n
block away from the church, you know.
DHOEBE HARDING is to be matron
l. OF honor at the wedding. and Kath :
crime Lea and Martha McAllister, who
is engaged to Sewell Borie. you know,
are to be maids of honor Then there
are six bridesmaids. Marie Wright
Hoffman, Christine Hare Stockton,
Gertrude Pancoast, Ruth Hobart,
Anne Meirs Taylor and Helen Keeney,
of California.
It's bound to be pretty wedding. as
Elizabeth is very good looking. has a
good figure and carries herself with a
decided air. Phoebe is very pretty. too,
aud the bridesmaids are by no means
plain.
Elizabeth looks quite little like her
mother, who was Miss Mabel Smith, Il
sister Of the late Ross Smith and Harry
Smith. In fact, she was a sister iii :
law of the present Mrs. Harry Adams,
whose first husband was Harry Smith.
She died when Phoebe and Elizabeth
and Harry, Jr.. were very small, and
they lived for some time in Washing
ton with their father, who brought them
back to Philadelphia to live when it was
time for Phoebe to make her debut. 1t
was several years after that, that he
married his brother in laws widow.
IBID you hear Of the cute dog show
- the little Willing girl, daughter of
the Kent Willings,' and small Mary
Davis gave out at the Willing place
iu Paoli on Saturday? They had every
kind of dog entered and gave(prizes an
everything. Inc pfoceeus dre 10 Ro u
the Society for the Prevention, of Cruel
ty to Animals. Most of the small dogs
round the neighborhood were in the
show, and such growing and barking
and grunting and yelping you never
heard! They had several other little
girls to help them. and altogether it was
a wonderful success. Mary Davis is
the daughter of the s. Boyer Davises
of Malvern. NANCY WYNNE.
