= THINK the world and his wife hnve
conc to Long Island this week to the
tonnis. and incidentally n great many
pbilodclphinns are there too and have
entered into the tournament. The ten
njs Is Mt Forest Hills, you know, and
~ course every one Is much interested
N see Suzanne Lenglen play. Every
one says that we have no one who can
beat her, but that remains to be seen.
And IL was seen, Mrs. Mallory beat
her yesterday. Mrs. Gilbert Harvey,
al Chestnut Hill. Is taking part IN
The tournament, and so are Phyllis
Walsh and Mrs. NJ. G. Huff and De-
bornh Seal and Virginia Carpenter. I
have not heard positively IL Molly
Thayer Is there, too and / suppose she
l. she's so crazy about playing.
Everybody smart in Long lslan! is at
tbe club watching the games, and 1t GER
toinly bids fair to be Il most exciting
week there.
TTAyE you seen the grand stands that
III ore building out at Mannheim for
,bo vrent tennis week here? The stands
are very high and built right in the
middle of the cricket crease. 1t looks
like an old time arena, only the ends
Of the arena are not up yet. Some one
iookine at it said she thought the play
ers would feel like early martyrs being
led in, because there is just the one
, court and the players will come In IN
nairs. to show what they can do. IL
going to be great time methlhketh.
Perhaps you wonder why | do not say
methinks, Well it just seems as II 1t
might be a good idcn to say something
different once in n while.
To return to Mannheim / told you, !
think. that Sir Auckland Geddes and
Gady Geddcs will attend and others OF
en-. diplomatic circles are expected. The
excitement starts September 10.
HEAR that Lydia Clothier will
i make her debut this year. She Is
the daughter of the Morris Clothiers
who built that beautiful house Mt villa
nova. lust couple of years ago. Her
sister Emily came out just about two
years ago, and the opening OF the new
house and her debut were celebrated ut
a large tea on October 1, 1919. The
following October, 1920. Emily was
married to Fred Strawbridge. They
went abroad for quite n trip after their
wedding and have been living i'll apart
mcnts ri Fifteenth and Locust streets
since their return.
LYDIA IS very sweet. She spent last
winter ut Foxcroft School, in the South,
and has been visiting in the North for
several weeks this summer. The date
Of her debut has not been set, but l
understand the party will probably be
given in October.
NINA NEWBOLD is to be debu-
n tante this season, too. She ex-
pected to make her bow last season, but
her uncle, Mr.. Arthur Emlen Newbold,
died suddenly in July; and as her father,
Mr.. Clement Newbold. was thereby
thrown into deep mourning, 1t was de,
cided to wait year. Mr.. Ncwbold
and Anna have been in Europe for
FIVE or six months and only recently
returned. Marian Taylor. who is en-
gagged to Charlie Willing and who is
Mr.. Newbold's niece incidentally, went
abroad with them and has been study
ing singing in Italy for several months.
She has sweet voice, you know, and
uses it very well. | doubt not that
return home.
Anna Newbold is to be introduced at
tea and there will be several Balls
given in her honor during the winter.
Her sister. Mrs. Steve Colhoun, will
chaperone her at a good many of the
parties, and she will have her aunts,
Mrs. Beauveau Borie, Jr., Mrs. Will
liam Taylor and Mrs. John s. Newbold,
to take her about. She will have a
good time, am sure.
