wv W ,bo vide scatterntion OF her family,
.tougb I rejoice with the girls who are

"a Martha keeping up the tradition:
Rachel Just came back from Italy
few weeks ago. You know she went
nver with the two Strawbridge girls
and several others for two months, ana
tbey had wonderful time. .,

bear SOPHIE had a delightful sum-
NOR Mr.. Sheplcy was able to stay on
hnro me- iii the middle of this month, and
.hor we're in New England most OF
ths time and Travelled around quite
int I lis too bad they could not be
h"ro ", for Jules wedding when 1t is to
.sto mace 40 soon, but he could not
stor away from business any longer,
snj Sonhie did not want to stay without
him and so they have gone on to ST.
Louis, where they are getting settled IN
their new home.
r WONDER If it will be as hot today
out nj the Bryn Mawr Show as 1t
wac Yesterday and Wednesday, be.
c,nse' according to all calculations and
nrsmonitions and all the rest of It. 1T
hod not ought to of been so hot AZ
,S;s time of year as it has been. And
Incidentally when you have a beautiful
clotb frock to wear and have to fall
bnck into a half-faded summer dress
ia lust not quite what you had hoped
II was going to be.
Furthermore, it must be hot for those
who insisted in their minds that 1t was
not hot and sat in the boxes and on tho
terraces in sports clothes and capes-
mind you, capes. Cintra Ellis wore
the most wonderful one on Wednesday
afternoon. 1t was of duvetyne in a
soft shade of brilliant orange, and she
wore n large black velvet hat with 1t.
Cintra is decidedly pretty and hns
brought some wonderful frocks from
Europe for the parties this year. She
made her debut last Saturday at an ut
home given by her parents in Bryn
Mawr.
ENAR be it from me to criticize, but as
i an interested onlooker / wonder why
the harem veil as worn of late. Why
does any one want to put a wad OF
heavy chiffon about the neck and attach
Il up to the back of the hat, thereby
closing out all possible air, and espe-
cially why OH days such as the last few
have been? Somehow ] cant get It.:
1t is not pretty. it is not becoming. and
vet the fashion seems to be growing
and growing strong. saw about fif-
teen out al the tennis, and there have
been a great many at the Horse Show.
OF course, every one to his or her
taste, as the old farmer said when he
painted his COW sky blue. but why do
you suppose some of us have such pc
culo" tastes?
DEITY was playing with her kitten
- when Aunt Edith came to call
The kitten. whose name is Evalina, was
skipping about most gayly, chasing n
ball and spool and itself and having
a wonderful time. What playful
little thing it is" said Aunt Edith.
