uArKING of weddings, that must

suS% suS Mrs Joseph Stokes. of Moorestown,
N 7 and a nephew Of Stogdell Stokes
vi The Tb1' wedding took place at the Bah,
hott's country home on Long Island ana
Tas witnessed by about eighty OF tho
t.n,;,ies and intimate friends OF the
two and several hundred attended the
,ocention afterwards. My friend. the
WOO bird. was there and told me about
4 and about Lydia's dress, which must
have been exquisite.
""I II was fashioned of Rose Point lace
and white chiffon velvet. Now you
tnow that combination was lovely. The
bod;cr was entirely Of the lace and the
SHIRT was velvet with long train which
came from the waist line.
That kind of gwn Is infinitely more
becoming than the short skirt and court
train from the shoulders. l. may be
nrpiudiccd, but the court train always
gives mo the impression of stopped
shoulders. It is never graceful.
I always remember Edwina Brune'
Wethprill's wedding frock, which was
made on long graceful lines, Just when
most Of the brides had started to wear
the short skirts and shoulder trains.
She stood out in my thoughts as the
best dressed bride Of that year, her long
gown and soft graceful train was 50
beautiful.
CPEAKING of Edwina, saw her
y on Walnut street one day. this
week, and she was looking stunning in
one piece blue serge frock which was
embroidered in blue and held In at the
waist with q narrow belt Of the ma
tcrial. Her hat was particularly pretty
and very hard to describe. 1t was of
dark blue duvetyne as to the crown, and
was small and shaped like round tnr-
han, but was widened on the sides.
Front and back it was trimmed with
the most heavenly shade of blue breast
with little end sticking out over one
ear. 1t made her syes look like the
skies. With her golden hair, which
has that wonderful natural wave and
her general stunning looks, | do not
wonder that passersby turned to gaze at
her, she was some one to remember.
THE Main Line women are much
l interested in n large entertainment
that is to take place the last OF this
month for the benefit Of the Sunnyside
Day Nursery, 1911 Thompson street.
A Halloween party has been planned
which will offer many varieties for the
children in the afternoon. and the eve !
ming will be given over to dancing for
'N uVpuluhlto anu SCt'
will be Punch and Judy show, a
moving picture, games and amusements
Of all sorts.
