She Sees Some Smart Clothes During Her Various
Con1ings and Goings-Other Matters

WITH the warmer weather and the bud
w ding trees and the greening grass
everything, somehow one turns to out of
doors and thoughts of horse shows and
'sich' come to us. With the thoughts one
remembers the realities, for have we not two
in prospect one indoors and one outdoors?
The Indoors Show is to be held ut the Third
Regiment Armory on May 8, and 10, and
the Devon Show three weeks later, May
IS, 20, 80 and 81.
The outdoors one will be the Devon Show,
but, bless you, it won't be only horse
show. It's going to be everything under
the shining blue, as far as 1 can find out.
They're to lave cafeteria, and n dance
floor, and children's playground, and
every kind Of a side show you could
think of.
It's to be for the benefit of the Bryn
Mawr Hospital, and as every one on the
Main Line is interested in the Bryn Mawr
Hospital everybody ON the Main Line will
be interested in this huge and "magnifer-

bald Barklie is at the head of all the side
shows-the cafeteria and carnival part of it
goes to say it will go. And as for the
show part. where can you find better men
than Doctor Ashton, Mrs. Charles Coke and
Mr.. William Wanamaker to insure the sue
cess of such an undertaking? VOLTA, eh
bien and alors.
It's quite sure to be warm and lovely
at that time of year, and somehow ] pre-
dict it s going to be fine affair.

well as extremely unusual color.

on her shoulders.

Well, it's not absolutely decided as yet. but
it's being discussed npd they say she will.
1t scarcely seems the other day since / saw
her walking along Spruce street on her way
10 the square to play with the other chill
dren. She always was pretty child and
has grown up very good looking. I think
she resembles the Bell side of the family,
as she is rather fair, and her mother, Mrs.
Sam Bell, Jr., who was Miss Gertrude
Tiers and an extremely good looking woman.

grandmother, who has been in the hos
pital and is just able to have her small
visitors for a short time. The doctor is q
wonderful man, with lots of queer looking
things to play with and look at, and one
day he took them into great big room
where there were tiny little cribs all around
the walls, and when you looked into the
cribs you saw tiny little red faces and bald
heads and little bits of hands reaching out
for piece of the air. Jean and Betty were
SO excited and awed that they talked in
whispers and walked on tiptoe. Then the
doctor told them to pick out the ones they
wanted.
SO hand in hand they went the rounds
and Betty picked out a beautiful one with
kewpie curl on top of its head and n
dimple in one cheek when it "talkcd. :"
Jeans was not quite so pretty, according to
Betty's idea, and so when they told the doc
