Co,kct Wilson, Jr., was to be nm usher
A. the wedding. He and Marie Louise
nod taken their three tots into the
WiIiamsons to stay while they were
vone to Virginia and the httie giri teil
from n third story window that atter-
The Wilson's were going with other
u,ombers of the wedding party from
horo os well as some Of the guests,
Sown to Virginia in motors, but the
sccidcnt happened before they started,
and so of course, they did not go. Jack
Wilson Is to take his brothers place as
1ittle Frances Is doing beautifully:
1,st Imagine It, falling three stories
Wby. its n marvel that she Is alive.
Inst the two little legs hurt, poor baby
but she ia doing beautifully and every
one is greatly relieved that it was no
worse.
y,O GO back to the wedding guests
i for the Adams wedding. They went
down in ten automobiles from here on
Monday, and are staying in Rapidani
sy,tb various relatives and friends Of
Ono pevtons, and there are parties and
dances and dinners galore for their en-
tertainment. Marguerite Adams Howe
and her husband are among the guests,
Of course, and Marguerite is to be
matron Of honor at the wedding. Her
marriage, you remember, took place on
the 7th Of the month out at the Valley
Forge Memorial Chapel.
The whole ten motorloads of guests
will come back together, and ! heard
they were planning q day or so In
Washington before returning to Phila-
delphin. 1t must be great fun. There
Is nothing like n house pnrty in Nir-
rlnia. especially n wedding party, with
all the entertaining and the wedding
presents and the trousseau to see.
| hcnr very nice things Of the bride
from every one. wonder IL she sings.
Ar is one of the outstanding members
of the Savoy Company, you know, and
I'm sure the new bride will join, too,
II she can sing. otherwise she'll sit In
the audience with the rest Of us, and
enjoy it there too.
TT SEEMS to me that the members
i OF the younger set are dressing very
prettily these days in their sports suits
OF English tweed or TyrOl wool and
all the other queer names the materials
have. The stitched cloth hats made
from the same material are so pretty
and SO becoming.
| saw Elizabeth McElroy on the
street the other day wearing smart
suit of gray tweed and hat to match.
Her fur was also gray, and IT was aw-
fully pretty and becoming. Katherine
Dunn has q blue tweed suit and a small
hat Of the material and brown fur, and
rs just as sweet as can be. There IS
something SltllSH anu IloucNI anu hA'"h
about the whole costume, which Is very
pleasing to the eye.
VOC know the latest style in wool
i stockings which leaves the knees
exposed? We'll. Elsie. aged six, was
dressing to go out with mother when
nurse proceeded to put such Il pair on
her. Elsie objected to them for win
ter time and rushed into mothers room
declaring: "Mothcr, I can't go out in
this weather with my knees hanging out
