A few If the men started out for a
game of golf and a whole lot of others
spent their time practicing. No one
| did any more talking tho Grace than
! Mr.. Ed McKeever. he spent his even
! ing talking to the society reporter on
! the other paper. think Mr.. Copeland
must have felt funny for right out in
| print the next day they called him
| the High PriesteSS'' of the occasion.
He wasn't overjoyed that I had said
| he was in charge of arrangements, so
| l can't imagine how he felt being flung
| into royalty all at once. They had
/ fried chicken on the bill of fare that
night and it was curious to watch some
! of the Topekans, you know so well.
! They sort of cast an eye around to see
whether or not anyone was daring to
pick it up in her or his fingers. When
we were out on the porch that evening
I heard a woman say as she passed
US, well didn't know whether to or
! not, but I watched Mrs. B. and she
was doing it. She has the biggest
house in town and I guess if she can
l can too"
Mrs. Allen, our governors wife was
a guest that evening, and was one OF
the most charming women present
| She was wearing a lovely cream lace
frock made over taffeta. We saw
just heaps of other pretty frocks. One
| of the prettiest of girls was wearing
| a pale green organdie frock with a
| touch of green on her hat And say
Grace she was with a good looking
! chap whom you don't know. He
! comes down quite often from McPher-
| son. Last winter he came down to
one of the Washburn Dramatic club
plays and I declare he attracted more
| attention than the players did. It's
certainly queer that some people can
come into a room and Immediately
everyone will begin to ask, who's
that?" We have another good look
! ing man here this summer, that all the
/ girls seem to be raving about. He's
home from Harvard. I don't suppose
! they'll exactly care about me writing
you all this. but then the girls are
commented on SO why shouldn't the
men come in for share?
Oh, yes, I mustn't forget to tell you
that Henry Sullivan is married. Every
one here who had announcements has
lost or mislaid them and SO 1 can't tel
you the name of the girl. He has beer
married about two months, and the
person was Los Angeles society girl
The wedding was quite an affair I'm
told.
We're trying to keep up our Society
page, but it's rather difficult this sor1
of weather. Everyone who is goins
has gone, no one has come home yet
and those of us who are still here, are
doing more tanning than anything
else.
Bertha Campbell and I have almos
forgotten what the word party sound!
like, and I'm afraid if anyone phoneC
one of those things in, we'd be com
PEELED to ask them just how the,
spelled the word.
And so you say, that the doggies
place in New York is Broadway ant
lO4th street, because a good many O
the girls from the Follies, the roo
gardens and the various summer re
vues live around there. Well that
all right, we don't have to worr,
about the dogs in our city, all w,
seem to be keeping our eye on now
adays is the city's new parking ordi
