It's really a dandy club, and the
members certainly have wonderful
time. They were all trying all kinds
Of stunts on Thursday. There'Il be
another meeting on Monday afternoon
at the same hour.
DOESN'T it seem funny that plans
~ are really well under way already
for the Devon horse show? You see,
the women have the Country Fair and
bazaar in charge, and when so much
has to be done to make that success
they really do have to start long before
the time, which, after all, is not so very
many weeks off.
Mrs. Archibald Barklie, who is a
wonder as an organizer, and Mrs. Alex
andcr Brown are the chairman and vice
chairman respectively of the fair. Mrs.
Il. Penn Smith made such a wonderful
success of the rummage sale last year
that she has been asked to take charge
again, and there are wonderful promises
of marvellous things for her stall.
Mrs. Billie Clothier is to be chairman
OF the shows publicity committee, and
Mrs. Paul Mills, who is in the South
but will return shortly, is in charge of
the boxes. ts-% t-
You know Mrs. Mills took Jessie and
Isabel Da Costa down South with her
children and they planned to stay sew
eral weeks.
MRS. WURTS had the fancy dance
A'A meeting of the class last night, and
really the little girls were the sweetest
things. l don't suppose they would
thank me for calling them little girls,
because they range in age from fourteen
TO seventeen, but they are so sweet and
young and did have such good time.
There were several dinners before the
party and there was cotillon as usual.
Among those who entertained at dinner
were Mr.. and Mrs. Henry D. Paxson
for Louise Bache, the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Franklin Bache Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Wayne for their daughter, Eliza
beth Wayne; Mrs. Jones Wister for
her granddaughter, Louisa Strawbridge
the Clayton McElroys for Elizabeth; in
TACT it seemed to be day for Louisas
and Elizabeths, for Elizabeth Sitter, too
I, to have dinner given by her mother,
Mrs. Hollingsworth Sitter. Then the
Tom Ashtons gave dinner for their
Bon Billie. 1t was certainly fine party.
