:, tbe very spificst Of the debutantes
n this year, you know. And then there
"a. The Stotesburys' housewarming at
,hsir place, Whitemarsh Hall.
A. this time OF year IL always helps
an AFFAIR when guests can go out Of
snors into the gardens and grounds. and
han IL rains everything has to be
concentrated inside, and it's ant to bc q
bit stufy. but fortunately it cleared off
later. ,-,.-,,
However, Eleanor's ten was delight
tri and sbo Is as attractive as can be.
NJ is very good looking. being rather
fall. and. having chestnut brown hair
and hazel eyes. She is graceful and
,iyacious, and dresses in very good
tsste. Mrs. Hart. who was Miss Anna
FISHER, looked handsome in her gown
n rray crepo de chine, which suited
her 10 perfection. She Is tall and fair,
,op know, and has blue eyes. Eleanor
wore n lovely frock of peach -colored
chiTon and carried Sunset roses, which,
q, yo,l know, have just that peach blow
shade.
Eleanor Hart is the niece Of DIR.
Charles Hart. Mr.. Harry Maybin Hart
and Miss Maidie Hart. She was
nupil at Springside School, in Chestnut

most talented, attractive girl. I re-
member her in French play | saw ouo
there once, and she was splendid.
There we're about ten other debu-
tsntes receiving vt the ten and the
Aovers-I really believe she had more
than 200 bouquets. It was simply
marvellous. Her parents and DR.. Hart
will give a ball for her in December,
and there are to be lots Of other enter
tainments In her honor,
THE other day when I stumbled upon
i COPY Of Amory Hare Cooks
no.ms. I felt that it was almost crimi-
nal that more is not said about her
and her exquisite work. She's the sort
of Joyce Kilmcr kind of poetess-makes
poetry out Of the ordinary cry-day
things and puts her thoughts into the
most charming language. And to think
,he Is one Of Philadelphia = very own.
saw her last week at q club meet
inr, and was charmed with her appear
snee. She is exceedingly tall, and her
small, we'll shaped head Is topped with
an aureolc of golden hair. She is the
daughter Of DR.. and Mrs. Hobart Hare
and the wife of Commander Cook, Of
the United States Navy. you know.
She was wearing an all-gray costume,
the long lines Of which just suited her
slender but statuesque figure. The dress
wss made of soft woolen material In
a platinum gray, cut with square neck
and elbow sleeves. and it was made
long. wasted where the skirt was
Joined with those fascinating, outstand-
ing little pleats at the sides. The back
and front had no waist line, save for
that denoted by narrow leather belt.
A little bit of wool embroidery, just q
nero tracery. appeared here and there
on the waist. Her hat was medium
sized one, with an upturned brim Of
chinchilla fur and a crown Of the same
material as the frock. A gray fox
neckpiece and stockings and slip
pers Of gray suede completed the pic
ture, for she was really STUDY" it
was all so artistic. Mrs. Cook writes
inc ucdttsI UOclT15 OF inc neArt ana
mind" and she reads them with so
much charm. When I was looking at
her | wondered what words she had
thought when she chose that exquisite
set'up, for she told me one time that
words always brought colors to her
mind.
She is bringing out q new book In
THIS country and England in q few
months, and it Is to contain series of
poems about little homely chores, and
Amory says she knows how to do all
the things she writes of herself. It's
to be called Swept Hearths.'
Her first book was called Tossed
Coins, and must tell you u scream
ing story connected with that. A
woman | know was talking to another,
and told her she must get Tossed
Soins that 1t was quite wonderful.
Iae other woman hesitated a moment,
and then said she hestated to have Il
IN her house. for fear the boys might
iearn the intricacies of african Golf
or the new Put and Take" Believe
me. that lady was barking up the
wrong tree in that case. Tossed
CONS Is beautiful, inspiring and has
much that is deep down in the soul and
heart; ! am proud to know any one
VINO has such beautiful mind. Mrs.
Eook has several darling children and
10 most attractive woman. Her mother
was Miss Reba Pemberton, and she is
