weather Is Just Ideal. The Philadelphia
Cricket Club was q most interesting
spot on Saturday afternoon. Quite the
and the finals between Mrs. Mallory
and Miss Zinderstein were very exciting.
10 auotc one OF the latest 'iincs' used
by the younger set, which was ever pres
ent at the games, It was "hendishiy
fascinating" ...
Speaking Of Zines" Of course, you
know what that means. don't your You
string some wild words together and use
them upon all occasions, and that's your
line, Perfectly original, you know, and
All that, and it's 'simply scrumptious"
when you do get perfectly original one
yourself. Perhaps you think it's "fas-
cipatingly futile" but then II you do,
you never were seventeen or eighteen,
and never laughed and giggled and

4 lNE VI 'Hc usouthbte purues OF tne
" season. In fact the first 30 far. IL
the dance which Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Benedict will give at their home for Rita
Heckscher this evening.
Some perrons have been under the
impression that Rita Hecksches would
not come out on account Of the death
Of Barbara Heckscher last week. But
Rita Is not very close relative, you
know. Her father and Mr.. Ledyard
Hcckscher are COUSINS, so Rita and
Virginia. who was Barbara's sister, are
second or third cousins, ] am not sure
which. And ! do not think there has
been any question OF dcfcrring Rita's
debut. Mrs. Maurice Heckscher, who
Is related to both Mr.. Ledyard aud Mr..
stevens Hcckscher, naturally recalled
her Invitations for September II, but
that " the only affair for Rita, which
will not. or rather did not, take place.
OF course, the stedyard Heckschers'
party next week and, In fact, any en-
terteining on their part 10 all OK and
virginia VIII not make her debut.

cided upon as yet. Ottilie is the
