Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-09-25

r TOLD you a few weeks ago, think,
L that the Supper Club, with Mrs.
Hutchison Scott in charge thereof, is
thing of certainty for the winter, and
behold, now have the date of the first
meeting. 1t will take place on Satur-
day evening November 90, at The Belle
vue- Stratford. A New York orchestra
will come over and play on the nights
that the club will meet.
The membership list will be smaller
than three years ago but there will be
even more entertaining than before. 1t
is such wonderful party to go to after
the theatre and the men can sleep pretty
late on Sunday mornings after, you
know, and so the club is a welcome ad-
dition to this season of gayety, the
like of which is not likely to be wit
messed for many a year to come, with
nearly 100 debutantes coming out.
The debutantes will be largely enter
tanned at the club, judging from the
people who are already on the mem
bersbip lists. The buds of former years
were always crazy about the club, and
of course, the older people went a lot.
Among the men on the committee are
Bob Cassatt, John G. Groomc, John
c. Bell, Sydney Hutchinson, Ned Grocer,
and l cant remember all the others, but
there are about eighteen altogether.
7 HEARD yesterday that I had been
L misinformed about the return of
Mrs. Roland Morris to Japan from the
West. She is still here and has beer
visiting in Chestnut Hill, at the Joseph
Walker Wears, for a while. Sara, her
daughter, is going to boarding school
in Westover, and Mrs. Morris, who has
been quite i'll, is going to stay on here
and will probably take rest cure. The
climate of Nippon is very trying allthe
year round, and some persons from this
part of the world cannot stand it.
Sara Morris is very attractive. She
is about sixteen years of age and will,
of course, make her debut in this city
when the time comes, as most of her
relatives live here, though members CT
her mother's family live in the South
She is related to the Shippens, Vests
and Morrises, so what more could you
want?
