IN SPITE Of all reports to the con-
] trary, Julia Hebard did not go
abroad with Isabel Frazer. She had
expected to, as she and Isabel are great
friends, but Mt the last minute changed
her plans and went out to PeQuaming,
Mich, with her family. Pequaming is
on the shores of Lake Superior. and the
Hebards have most attractive house
there, where they go every summer.
They 90 on camping trips all the time.
Last summer Emily Hammond. of
New York, who Is TO be married on
Thursday to John Franklin, also of
New York. when Mary Hebard will b.
I bridesmaid stayed with them. and
ibis summer they had Marianne Harris
md Margaret Paul visiting them for
] month. Julia, or "Dula" us every
one calls her, is coming out this fall.
md her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel
Hebard, will give II dance for her Mt
he Bellevue. .Stratford some time in
18th. l think.-but you
IN never be sure at the rate at which
,sople change their dates these days.
NEVER have heard anything like
the number Of engagements that
ave met with an, ending this summer.
)nly yesterday l heard of another one.
that's four in two weeks, II Dame
sumor Is telling the truth, and l have
y reason to think she is not. This
fair had gone so far that the girls
ather had even bought house for her,
nd the wedding date. though not set
Or publication had been decided upon.
md then they agreed to change 1t all
nd the engagement Is off. Again
~. better now than after the ccre-
,ony. 1t takes n brave girl to change
er mind, especially after the announce
lent of the hetrothal has been made
