WASN'T the lawn fete at Walmar-
w thon wonderful yesterday after :
noon? It was such an ideal day ana
the aides looked so pretty IN thelr
summer frocks. The swimming meet
held by the Girl Scouts was very ex,
citing. Miss Nancy Hallowel, Oh
Wayne. has flourishing troop OF scouts
and they take part in every thing going
on out on the Main Line.
The Log Cabin Is a lovely spot It's
very large for q place Of the kind, and
en- rambling and long. There are all
sorts of odd rugs and queer Indian
blankets and other odd furnishings that
make Il quite ideal. The dancing in

SAW Barbara Benson the other day
i looking very smart in a dark blue
mit. She was wearing sheer white
waist and a small dark blue straw hat
trimmed with ostrich feathers. A bril-
liant touch of color was added to heI
costume by string Of red beads and
bright red earrings. As Barbara is OF
a brunette type, the red was particu
larly becoming. She is the daughter oi
the Rev. Louis +. Benson and Mrs
Benson, and a sister of Margaretto
Benson, who married George Purves
last December. Another sister was
Carol Benson. who married George
Philler. She died some five or six years
ago and George Philler married agair
lust about year ago. He and his wife
who was Marguerite Bard, are living
at Shamrock Station, Pa.
Barbara has perfectly stunning
little runabout that she rides around II
great deal. She is one good looking
person.

THE baby had heard her Daddy sing
L ing a little song very often, ant
though she is only three, she ha'
caught the tune quite well and "Woam
in in the Gwoamin" was quite favor
ite with her. The other day her mothe
took her to spend the day with he
aunt. Now, though she was as much a
three, in some way she had not oftei
heard a talking machine, and it hap
pencd that the times she had heard on
hitherto it had only been playing in
strumental records. So she was not pre-
pared for the human voice.
Well. auntie put on the famou
Harry Lauder record, and suddenly tn
baby stopped playing with the picture
book and looked up. Her little face wa
a question mark. Then she broke int
ripping giggle as the smiles chase
