hid you hear about Alix Dolan ac
drag hunt recently down in Aiken.
where the Dolans have their southern
home. and was thrown from her horse.
Before she could rise or assistance could
reach her she was pretty badly kicked
in the back by the horse. The extent
of her injuries. when I heard about
the accident. had not been determined.
I understand however. that she is not
seriously hurt. Several specialists were
sent for to make thorough examina-
tion.
1t is too bad. Any injury to the back
is always worrying. Alix was TO have
sailed for Paris with her grandmother,
Mrs. Nelson Brown. several weeks ago:
but their sailing was put off several
times. and then came her injury. l
have not heard whether Mrs. Brown
has gone without her or If she will wait
till Alix is better and stronger.
TNHE wee bird tells me that the hurt
l. back was. not the only disaster the
Dolans had sustained this summer
Their house and safe were broken into
recentlyJand jewels worth about $4,000
or 81 1000 were stolen.
TT STRIKES me we are going to have
l. number of awfully pretty debu-
tantes next season. There's Anne Ash =
ton. for instance. She is the daughter
of DR.. and Mrs. Tom Ashton. and is
very pretty. She has had such a won
derful. healthful life riding on horse
back since she was Il teeny little gir
that she has complexion like rose
petals. and her hair fairly dances with
sunlight Colds and bronze. Another
thing, Anne dresses beautifully. Hel
mother has very good taste and Anne
can wear any color under the sun. sc
she is always picture to look upon
The Ashtons will give Mask and Wiz
party for Anne on April q, and she will
be introduced next October at theil
Wynuewood home, while ball is in the
planning for December.
A MOTHER very pretty debutantc of
n next season will be Sydney Biddle
| She is very unusual looking. very dark
with straight, beautiful hair. dark eyes
and a very good profile. She is the
daughter Of the A. Mercer Biddrs, Of
Torresdale. and sister of Brudel
Biddlc, as A. Mercer Biddlc, Jr.. is
called. Her elder sister was Harriet
! Blddlp, great ldNOrlte III Tue younger
"out" set, You remember, she was one
of those five popular young people from
this city who were killed in the New
Haven >wreck in 1913. Bruder Biddlt
was terribly hurt in the same accident
but recovered after many weeks in the
! hospital.
Mrs. Biddle. Sydney's mother. was
Miss Harriet Fox, sister of Mr.. Calet
Fox and Of Mrs. Jason Waters, who
was formerly Mrs. Nicholas VAIN. Hei
daughter. Ellen VAIN. you remember
married the Baron de Meyronnct de st
Marc, and lives in Paris.
THE George Clymer Stouts and j.
i Price Wetheril gave lovely party
in the Glover Room for their daughters.
| Mary Stout and Alice Wcthprill. on
Saturday evening, too. There wen
about 100 guests. Mrs. Stewart Wurts
and Mrs. Newbold Fitting received the
young people with Mrs. Stout.
THE street was approaching, OF
i rather the car was approaching the
corner at which she wanted to get out
and there seemed to be n line of mer
and women going forward, so. she fol
lowed them. When the stop came
however. very ample lady stood befor
her right at the exit of the car. y,
one could pass, be he man or angel.
