Fete-Mrs. Lippincon Wins Liberty Bond

TACK WHELEN is certainly havin,
d enough bachelor dinners, is he not
Won know his ushers and best man ant
.sverol other Princeton fellows, mem
bsrs Of the Ivy Club, gave him a bl.
d,rner in New York on Wedncsda,
svening, and tonight he is to have hi'
bachelor dinner at the st. James, her,
,r town. He and Paulina Bell are tc
hs married next Tuesday out in Haver
tord. YOU know. Jack is the son OF
Mrs William Rodman Ellison by her
Arst marriage. He Is one of the most
nopular of the younger men In town,
and he is marrying most attractive
eirl, let me tell you. I think Paulina
;s one of the prettiest and most stylish
Of the younger girls. She's about nine
teen and came out season before last
and had a beautiful time. She is q
sister of Sam Bell, Sd, who is a
Princeton student and who is to be one
of Jacks ushers.
r HEAR Mrs. Bertram Lippincott
i was fortunate enough to get the Lib
erty Bond which was on Investments
a, the June Fete the other day, and
Mrs. John Whitaker won Mary and
Doug" the two darling woolly lambs
whose ears were pink and who kept
eating the grass inside their tiny pen
ali the time. Mrs. Whitaker said she
would have n beautiful new house built
for them, and they will have more room
than in the fat they were living in
during the Fete. And that wee black
pig with such curly tail land he
wagged it, too, just like a dog went
to Betty Sewell. He was the cutest
Dig, such beautiful coat, all black
and shiny, and a funny pinky snout
and he never stopped roofing in his
0traw all afternoon. He was most
splendiferously immaculate pig, too. No
GOODNESS, yes, and such funny little
Srunts as he would make. Blanche
Gibson, who was crazy to have curly
hair, won the permanent wave.
hear that the Fete brought in about
$4,000 for the hospital. And to my
thinking that Is gratifying to a degree,
because when women work as hard ns
those women did for that affair, Just
as they worked for the Devon Show, for
Bryn Mawr and all these other worthy
causes, 1t must be delight to know
that It was worth while. And to take
In $4,000 from 2 o'clock until II in
the evening is some fine bit Of work,
should say, Joe Lippincott took the
breakfast set, l hear, and young w.
W. Harrison, Jr., the golf bag and
clubs. And Mrs. Atwater Kent. who
has darling little girl, invested IN
the big dressed doll and got 1t.
A ND those blessed babies in the show
"A were so cute, too. Little Tommy
Platten, who Is wear old, was voted
the prettiest baby (it was all by popular
vote you know and Bobby Taylor, who
Is two and half, was given a sardonyx
ring as the most attractive little boy
there; while an add a pearl chain with
one pearl to start, was given TO Betty
Robinson aged three and half, as the
mast attractive little girl. Austin Nc
Carthy, Sd. who is twenty two months
Old was given little gold clasps, having
been voted the fattest baby present.
And Little Billy Patch, twenty months
old, got silver spoon for being the
eutest baby there. :rhey we're ali too
darling for anything and with the
weather think their moth
ers all deserved medals for bringing them
to compete.
THE Graham Doughertys gave
L dance at the Philadelphia Cricket
Climb for their sister, Isabel Frazer.
Isabel has been at school in New York
and came home just about week ago.
She Is to be a debutante next year and
her sister, Mrs. Dougherty, who you
remember was Maria Frazer. will intro
duce her at n tea in November. The
dance was given for members of tho
younger set, debutantes of the last sea
son and next year, and was very
pretty affair.
THE George B. Evans gave delight
- full dinner dance at the Button for
Isabella Wanamaker and her fiance,

Mrs. Wanamaker and Mr.. and Mrs.
There Is to be large re
ception after the wedding at the Wana-

DOLLY and Helen and Tommy were
playing upstairs the other day,
Wnen loud weeping was heard. Daddy
calied upstairs to know what was the
