WHILE aware that all of us are
w fallbls and likely to make mistakes
even about those with whom we have
plsycd as children. | wonder If you will
not agree with Nancy that. there is
nothing moro unpleasant than an anony-
nous letter. When a person writes to
Nancy calling attention to n mistake, it
seems hardly worth while TO answer
the correction when that person is un-
willing to substantiate the statements
By signing his or her name.

does not criticize individuals, nor does
she tQlk scandal in her columns. Also
on several occasions Of late she has
heard she has been impersonated in
telephone calls and In other ways. and
would like to take this opportunity to
say that she never telephones under that
name and that no one has authority to
do so; that she does not wish informa

any such communications always have
found their way to the scrap basket
and always will, and so saying she will
now pass on to other things.
IJAVE you noticed the dresses Of
IL serge and poirct twill which are
embroidered all over in a contrasting
color? Not only are they embroidered
all over, but they represent a wall
paper pattern. ! saw two such frocks
at the Horse Show this week. One had
background of dark blue and little
Japanese paGodas, bridges. trees, grass
and small figures in single threads Of
light gray were embroidered over the
entire surface. 1t was something like
the "willow plate pattern and another
was of dark blue with a similar Chinese
design In hcnna thread.
Indeed. parts of the embroidery
seemed reproduction of the walls of
China; as one gay young wit remarked {:
at looked MS if they carried great
weight on their shoulders. and then
disclaimcd any attempt mt being funny,
or punny. either, for thnt matter.
This description makes the gowns
sound peculiar. I know, and so they
were, but very stunning and unusual.
TFIE spoiled young neighbor across

afternoon with sister. and mother hap

mother would not let me- And in
accents of decp surprise the spoiled
young neighbor. who always had what
she wanted and had methods of her
own, asked: well. didn't you cry?'
