Sarah Fox is the youngest daughter

who died some years before, too.
At Cape May three summers ago,
Mr.. and Mrs. Adams were in. an auto

time after that, but finally recovered
entirely.
Evelyn is Mrs. Adams's second

ORANGES LEECH will be intro
l. duced by her grandmother, Mrs.
3940 Spruce street. Most of the sea
SON s buds will receive with the three
debutantees this afternoon. and L
do hope the weather will be better
than it was yesterday.
r SAW Lisa Norris and Mrs. Joe
L Bailey walking up Walnut street on
Monday afternoon. They were wearing
those new long capes which reach from
the shoulders to the hem of the frock.
Not that these were very long. as neither
Lisa nor Ethel wear long frocks.
Lisas was of brown fur. very full
about the shoulders. and she wore a
small blue green toque of duvetyne
cloth. Ethel is in black for her mother,
Mrs. George HUM, who died some
weeks ago. She wore a small. close
fitting toque of dull mourning silk and
her cloak of caracol fur was exceed
ingly handsome.
A RENT you interested in Ole Han
IA sons coming here on Friday night
to speak for the benefit of the tuber-
cular soldiers? He won the admiration
of the country when he handled strike
matters so well in Seattle as mayor. /
understand the Chamber of Commerce
and members of the Red Gross are
greatly interested in this meeting FRI
day night.
OF course. helping the tubercular is
one of the works of the Red Cross, and.
of course. the men of the Chamber of
Commerce are interested beyond every
thing to hear Ole Hanson. l under
stand Mrs. George H. Strawbridge, of
Bala. is one of those who invited him
here to speak.
WOULD you believe that there are
w two other rummage sales ION the
tapis" this week. besides the one for
iut ItSDf ttTluu OIpuuudSc' toiu !Ou
about? There's huge one lasting the
entire week going on at 215 South
Broad street under the auspices of the
Emergency Aid. And then the Hahne-
mann Hospital is having a big one. too.
Theirs is uptown. And I think that's
rather good idea, don't you?
Most of the sales have been around
the same places and so this one in
the old postoffice building at 1927
Columbia avenue will doubtless have an
entirely different clientele.
Among the women interested in the
Hahnemann sale are Mrs. Clarence
Bartlett. Miss Gertrude Allen. Mrs.
Gideon Boericke, Mrs. John Boericke,
Mrs. Duncan Campbell, Mrs. Thomas
Carmichael. Mrs. George G. Thomas,
Jr., Mrs. Walter Madeira, Mrs. John
Whitaker. Mrs. John Gribbel, Mrs.
Dillwyn Wister, Mrs. Edmund Lewis
and several others whose names l do
not remember.
MARY is two and half years old,
1N1 but she seems to have decided rea-
soning powers and ideas of her own.
The other day she was given an apple
and she bit into it with relish. Then
Just as suddenly, she decided she did
not want that apple and so she threw
It far across the lawn. ,
"Why, Mary" said mother, that's
q sin !" :,
"No. it isn't, mother, it's an apple
said our literal wee friend.
