"A, soins to have everything de luxel
fts great to travel that wny.
All OF which has nothing TO do with
that I started out to say. but the
wsrm weather and the Horse Show and
the June Fetc and everything else in

ner.
TALKING of summer plans and do
L inrs. 1 hear that the Charlie Coxcs
are At present In London and are having
a beautiful time there. They are going
later to the Continent. and will travel
through France and probably go to Italy
before returning to this country. The
Charles A. Porters and Katherine. who,
by the way. is TO be introduced next
sll. are going to Europe. Katherine
ia to be a bridesmaid for Paulina Bell
in June, and ] suppose they will sail
after that. incidentally, Katherine gave
A beautiful kitchen shower yester-
iay for Betty Strubing, who is en-
sased to Jack Gamer. and. judging from
IRE number who attended. l should say
Betty will need nothing for her kitchen
Of the future, for surely everything must
Ave girls were there.
A RENT showers the loveliest things!
"A A bit embarrassing, III admit but.
after all, you get over that when the
presents are brought in, and soon find
something appropriate to sny about
them all, and you love 1t all so, and
you think each girl is so dear to come
TO the party and to give YOU such lovely,
ufeful things. ... .....
And then when the time comes to use
the things, how you love each one.
THAT apron Mary B. made for me" "
YOU say. And isn't that pan the
cutest thing you ever saw? Sarah k
gave that to me. And Tell me, have
you ever seen one OF these potato cut
ters? They IRE SO odd and so useful. Car
rie F. gave. me that at tlorence's
shower before was married"
And you remember each thing and
think of the glver every time you use It
you really do! So ...
T NEVER heard such plans as there
are for the June Fete, which is to
be held just two weeks from today.
They have the most killing things 10
auction. And Mary and Doug are to
be there. Now don't get excited, fo.'
while you might want to see the real
Mary and Doug in person. I'm sure they
would not look as sweet and white and
woolly as the two lambs that are named
after them. And they have per
manent wave,' il you get me, and q
pig and an automobile, all to be auc-
toned.
Mrs, William Denegre has planned
one of the most attractive booths. 1t
has all the delightful accessories of
the bath. You know, embroidered towels
and those lovely glass bottles for tooth
wash and hair tonic, all painted By
hand, and the most, fascinating array
OF brushes and washcloths and fixingr
almost makes you want to get into q
tub then and there, SO inviting are they.
And then there is to be q silk stock
Ing booth, which Mrs. Howard Wilson
has undertaken, and have you heard
about the prohibition drinks? Mrs. job 4
Sargent Newbold has that booth, and
you will think you are getting an hon
est-to goodness cocktail when you order
your drink and see it, but you won't
when you taste 1t. However, do not let
that deter you, for, even though the
Kick may be minus quantity, the taste
! an told Is to be perfectly ''de-
luscious and so cooling and much
better for you than the real article"
SAW Mrs. George Reynolds on the
= street recently wearing stunning
costume of dark blue tricolette, the
jacket trimmed with black braid. A
sash of the material edged with blacR
SILK tassels finished the suit. Her hat
was OF violet straw turned up smartly
at the back and trimmed with bunches
OF yiolets, and she wore amcthysts
which gave a decidedly beautiful touch
10 the attractive costume.
