n EAR SUSAN:
Even the churches which are
strictest in their observance of
Lent sanction a bit Of frivolity at Mi
Careme, so IL was quite on the cards
that things would liven up a bit. 1t
is rather startling, however. to look
back on the last seven days and rea-
lie that they measured UP pretty
well to the standard Of gayety set
during a particularly gay winter.
There was the BOnillas-Coppola
wedding on Monday; Mrs. Marshall
Fields musicale. following her din
ner for Lord and Lady Reading, on
Tuesday evening; the widely herald
ed Ball Of the Nations on Wednesday;
q series of brilliant dinners through
out the entire week. gay doings at
the Riding and Hunt, Club, lectures
and Bible classes-lest we forget the
penitential season entiTely-and
perfect avalanche of teas, luncheons,
dinners and small dancing events to
welcome the avalanche Of returning
heroes-officers and men-from over
seas.
There are no invidiouS distinctions.
Any man who wears an overseas cap
and gold service stripes is hero.
And the others who have been swarm
iDg-and swaggering-in Washington
for the last two years-in uniform, of
course, hut with "silver stripes in
stead Of gOld''-are cutting very little
ice. II isn't fair, Of course, but it's
human. Many of them were crazy to
go over. honestly pulled every wire
they could reach. and fervently cursed
the fate that kept them in their
swivel chairs, because they were
really too valuable there to be sent
across. But, nevertheless and not
Withstanding," as hero stun" they
do not just at present rank very high.
Most Of them are getting out Of their
uniforms, with their poor little de-
spised silver service bars as quickly
as possible.

Lenten weddings are apparently
getting to be the fashion. Two last
week. and, IL you please, there are
two more on the calendar this week
Violetta Mercer, daughter Of Mrs.
Carroll Mercer. and DR.. Billy Marbury,
are having a rather quiet wedding, as
the brides family is living at q
hotel-the Grafton-but Miss Mercer
should make a handsome bride. She's
to wear a gown trimmed with rare
lace hounces, which belonged to her
great-grandmotheT, and q lovely lace
veil which her mother got in Brus-
sells years ago. DR.. Marbury did much
of his courting overseas while he was
serving with the medical corps Of the
army and his fance was nursing in
France.
The wedding Of Elizabeth Hamil-
ton, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. George
B. Hamilton. and Major William F.
Tompkins, engineer corps, u. s. A, is
set for Saturday at noon, with only
members OF the family and a few in

ward there will be a breakfast for a
considerably larger company. Major
Tompkins is but recently back from,

i. the embodiment of both, stepped
from the divers suit onto the mys-
FERROUS trap door in the closet floor.
"Of course it's up L you to find
out, Jane Lorimer,'' was the sugges-
ton made by my most ventursome
ego. THAT is, II you really care at

Then the softer side of my nature

only about my own ease and comfort.
l was n young n very pretty

me every luxury as my right, and
made no demands whatever upon my
intelligence n energy. / could be

hard feelings. Older women and
'uglier women might be expected to
go in for reforms, might be held re-
sponsible for failing to trap a spy, II
they had the chance. but a charming
and beautiful girl. like Jane Lorimer,
could be pardoned for playing the
fool under all OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
for throwing down a disagreeable job
of tracing a Bolshevik clue. In fact,
i would be praised for saving my
youth and beauty-and for flying with
it to the safety and luxury which
awaited me at the Lorimer mansion.
"And + might just as well be a pink
jelly fish in an aquarium without a
mind-without a soul," said myself
to myself. II think I'll LIVE while
I'm on earth. I'm going down that

recognize Tony Cert, the fruit vender,

However, L had no reason for hesi-
tating. Where Certeis could so /

After / had descended the ladder a
