TNI1E committee of the Supper Club
\ tyou know tho club which Mrs.
Hutchison Scott has at the bellevue and
which is TO be resumed this year, had
n meeting the other day and it was
planned to start the club earlier in the
evening and have it dinner dance and
have the closing hour earlier.
This will not eliminate the supper
dance, il persons prefer to go later and
have. supper instead of dinner, but 1t
simply means that If you are not going
to the theatre and want to dance, but
do not want to start in at eleven, YOU
can go Mt seven thirty or perhaps ear
lier, the exact hours have not been laid
down, and go home by eleven.
The club will start on November %
this year, you know | am so glad it
has been taken up again. 1t was al
ways such fun
CEFENTY FIVE men went on the
~ weekly hike with Mr.. Albert Cooke
Myers on Sunday, and, Of course, they
went the rounds of the customary walk,
ending up with swim in the pool at
the Y. NJ. G. A. and supper at the
Young Friends Association at fifteenth
and Cherry street Miss Nina Lea was
hostess at the supper and Mis- Helen
Morton assisted her in receiving. The
vaudeville entertainment which followed
the supper was very good and the party
broke up at ten.
TIME Mathers' party for Catherine
l. Mather on Saturday night was n
real Halloween affair though it was
given the day after You know the
Mathers have a wonderful log cabin on
their place which they built from logs
brought down here from the Earle
camp in the Adrondacks. The cabin is
forty feet long and has a wonderful
huge fireplace. OF course, logs were
burning brightly in said fireplace for
the party. and the boys and girls had
splendid time in their "ceric' costumes
bobbipg for applies, throwing nuts into
the blaze, and doing all the usual
stunts
Catherine is very pretty, and when
some years hence. she makes her bow
to society, | doubt not but that she
quickly follows in the footsteps of her
mother and aunts who were all engaged
before their first season was over. Mrs.
Mather was Catherine Earle, you know.

CHE had been all day in town ae-
Accompanied by father. mother ana
her own dentist. but still she woulh
not give in. Finally at 4 30 she was
persuaded. and from behind the closed
doors of the specialist dentists room we
heard the most fearful shrieks that ever
came from human throat.
Did we not know that she could not
feel the pain. as she had taken gas, We
might have felt very badly, but we sus,
pecked there was certain amount oi
'spoiled effect about it..
Later We met her coming along the
corridor accompanied by the faithful
special doctor and mother. Father was
waiting for them and he said 'Dld IL
hurt you, sweetheart!
"No." screamed sweetheart, who
was about ten. 1T didn't. but the
mean old thing took the only tooth
can chew on.
