Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-02-03

for Sarah Nelson, of Baltimore, who was
up here for the weekend. They went to
the Saturday Evening Class Saturday night
at the Bellevue, and really think that
Sarah has had a pretty nice time. There
we're about twenty-five or thirty there yes
terday.
Jane Maule is a would.have.been debu.
tantc, you know, and probably will go out
as much next year as IL she were to make
her debut; Just as Peggy Thayer and
lot of other girls would have come out
last season will, and will virtually be
debutantes., And goodness knows, they are
not much more than children, are they?
None over twenty. And after all, a great
many girls wait until they are more than
nineteen to make their bow to society,
anyhow. Jane Maule is very pretty and
has awfully good taste in clothes. She is
the daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Price
Maule. .s
VOU heard about the Actors Fund ben
eft at the Forrest next Friday after
noon? well,> a crowd Of =. A. AS have
volunteered to sell flowers and programs
there, and, believe l." they are pretty
ones. Sid Franklin, Antoinette Geyelin,
Hatty Geyclin, Gennette FAIRIES, Ethel
HUM Bailey, Alice McCabe Simpson Doth
are married, you know, Lisa Norris, Paul
inc Denckla, Mary Norris (who will soon
be Of debutante age), Edith Hutchinson,
Gertrude Conaway and Gretchen Clay,
Kitty Brinton and Margaret Dunlop.
ND you ever know anything on earth
~ like the benefits? II it isn't one thing
It sure is another these days; and for
everything you dig into your pocket. And
the amazing thing is that the pockets still
seem to have something left in them after
that constant diving. You'd think you
could not spare another cent, but then
comes something that you think ought to
be helped and there you are again.
I'D BE willing to bet Mary Alice Clay
l. Borie is a very happy person. She is
another of the young married women
whose home had to be broken up on ac-
count Of the war. Mary Alice and Louis
Borie were married a little more than
two years ago and they had apartments in
the De Lancey (which seems to be overrun
with young newly -weds, doesn't itD. Well,
war was declared and Louis was in the
Troop and had to go. Mary Alice stayed
on for willie and then she and small
Charles Louis, 4th, went home to stay
until Louis husband would return from
the other side; which, my dears, he did
last week, and after visiting both sets of
parents chat is, the Clays In town and the
Bories at RydaD they will take house
in the country for the summer. But their
plans are very indefinite as yet, as for all
the returned men. It's sort OF new
honeymoon for them to return to home and
wife, and many do not want to settle down
to housekeeping at once.
WELL, I've heard q little more about
w the st. Francis Junior Aides Valentine
Revue, which is to come off on Saturday
at the Bellevue. It's to be mostly vaude-
vile, you know, instead Of a regular show
with speaking parts. as they are always
rather difficult and everybody Is just Yait-
ing for the songs and dances anyhow. !
know you'll be glad to get the news that
Bessie Walsh Prizer is going to do
"red-white- -and-blue" dance; she is SO
graceful. Rosalie Hoban, Jean Edelman,
Edwina Malpass and May Walsh have
worked up some awfully clever impersona-
tions OF popular actresses. Then. Of course.
there are the chorus numbers-I love big
choruses in pretty costumes don't you
and they sound lovely. under such titles
as "Peacocks' France" I'm Old Versailles"
and sample My Kisses" land as one men,
Der in speaking Of it says. Their ronder.
ing will leave nothing to be desired'D.
wonder what she meant! OF course,
Charlie Morgan is getting up the whole
thing, as usual.
- xt.a sl.z
may be, and everybody is hoping will be,
the appearance of Governor Sproul. He
and Mrs. Sproul have been invited as
guests of Judge Rogers, and I understand
have accepted the invitation.
CHE was hustling upstairs to her apart
~ ment on the fourth floor, calling the
elevator names because 1t was out Of order
and fumbling In her bag to get her key
out. She had been to q matinee and talked
too much at tea. so that she was late get
ting home, and 1t was Thursday, and you
know what that means. and altogether by
the time she reached the door she was
decidedly hot under her georgette collar.
Then, to add to her annoyance. the key
refused to go in the lock- She turned it
upside down, stood on her head and dis
covered that the lock was turned straight,
tried the key right side up, turned It a little
4 to one side and finally tried the knob.
Knowing that there was no one in the
house she was shocked and 'horrihed to
hear stirring inside, then to have the
door opened. while her astonished neighbor
of the third floor looked out to see who
was trying to break in. They ought to do
something about this similarity OF doors
in apartment houses.
