Last Night at Rush Home

VOU ought to have been out Mt th
L. polo on Thursday to see the won
derful party Mrs. William G.. Warder
gave to $50 convalescent sailors. She
took them out to the game and had
them returned home afterwurd. The!
had beautiful time aud Mrs. War.
den asked quite a number of her friends
to help entertain them. Agnes Brockis
Mason was with her mother and so was
Elizabeth. Agnes certainly looks as il
matrimony agreed with her, she seems
as happy as the Gay is long. Did YOU
hear If she eyer found her jcwelryi
! asked great friend of hers tho
other day. and she said she thought not
Wasn't it too bad.
WTELL. the women Of the Main Lint
are back in harness all right. are
they not? Did you hear that they
are to have campaign starting Oc-
tober s and lasting ten days to raise
money to build. equip and maintain a
maternity ward in connection with the
Bryn Mawr Hospital? Mrs. Samuel
Vauclain has given the grounds for
the ward and now the money for the
building, etc. remains to be collected.
The campaign will he CO. operative
with the Bryn Mawr Horse Show and
carnival, which is to give its proceeds
entirely to the hospital.
Mrs. Paul Denckla Mills is head OF
the new warG campaign. You remem-
Der she had the Liberty Loans in the
central part of the city under her
care last year. and in fact in every
drive I think. and she certainly proved
her ability then, don't you think
With her in the work, are Mrs. Shipper
Willing. Edith Rawle that was. MIS-
George Packard. Mrs. George y.
Thayer. Mrs Charlie Sinnickson aud
Mrs. Edgar C. FELTON,. Then they
have a publicity committee, too. which
has Mrs. Henry Earnshaw as chairman.
and Mrs. Archibald Barklie and Mrs.
Alexander Brown will be associated
with her.
I am looking forward to that Horse
Show in Bryn Mawr. l always love
It out there, the grounds and surround
ing country add so much to the beauty
of things generally. The grand stand
has those smart green and white striped
awnings, and then the clubhouse is so
attractive. The show starts on OCTOBER
8 if no change has been made.
HID tell you who won the prizes
- for the lucky number dance at the
party out at the Tom Dolans on wed
nesday of this week? Jane Maule and
Bill Townsend won the first prize. and
the second was given to Anita Evans
and Harry Graham. Every one was
there, and the affair was decided
success. 1t was for the Children 8
Hospital, you Know. And they had
the cutest baby out there from the hos
pital to show all those interested what
could be done for little sick baby.
This youngster had been taken to the
hospital year ago really half dead
from lack of proper nourishment. II
was wee and scrawny and could not di-
gest what it did eat. Well, they took
it in and nursed it tenderly and care
fully, and it is simply "a little wonder
now. l thought it quite an idea that
they had 1.-THE goods on exhibit. And
said wee goods was just as cute as
cute could be.
n BOUT thirty of the school set had
"A q fine time last night at the dinner
dance which the Benjamin Rushes gave
for their son Richard out at Chester
idge. their home in West Chester,
Frances Mills. the two Montgomery
girfs, Loulie Thomson, Polly Newlin,
Christine Frazier, Ben Frazier, kath-
crime Rogers, Frances Sloan, Jimmie
SinkIer, Alexander and Crosby Brown,
George Packard, Jr., George Thayer,
Jr., Henry Jeanes, Clymer Brooke,
Charlie Barcley, William Wister, Ben
Strawbridge and Billy Ashton were
among the boys and girls Pt the party.
Most Of these girls go to boarding
school, and are only here for the Christ
mas and Easter holiday parties. They
will be of the debuntante class in three
or four more years.
T WAS surprised to hear yesterday
l. that the Duke and Duchess of Rox-
burghe and the Countess of Granard
are Oh the Wdter dlTeduy oh tntiT way
back to England. Many New Yorkers
had hoped that they would remain here
for part of the winters season at least.
In fact, some Philadelphians thought
perhaps they might come on here and
visit the Craig Biddles, who entertained
for them in Newport, you remember.
But whatever they snought, the fact
remains they are now on the high seas,
and though some say they will return,
me, / greatly doubt it.
NANCY WYNNE.
