A DELAIDE NEWLIN is so attrac-
n tive, and she had on the best
looking costume the other day. she was
wearing a small gray hat trimmed with
souirrel fur and q velvet dress OF q
lovely shade Of gray green. The skirt
~ the dress was of black velvet made

TIME Marriage Tax" at the Academy
J. last night was loads of fun. IL
thought the men and girls did awtully
we'll and it was q pretty, bright and
CAV affair. The costumes were lovely
70 brilliant and smart; and the girIS
looked sweet and dainty in their dances.
It's pity they are not going to give 1t
smother night. :,
Some OF the costumes we're really
strikingly original. thought the
flowers were wonderful, and was not
Mrs. Phil Dickinson exquisite? My,
but she is pretty!
Mrs. Victor Mather looked radiant as
usual. She has such wonderful poise
and is so good looking. All the girls
who did not take part in the actual
performance were aides, selling pro-
grams and fudge and smokes. They
we're all dressed in white waists, skirts,
slippers and stockings and looked per-
fectly dear.
THERE'S going TO be another en-
gagement soon. She s fair and she's
pretty and she's debutante and she Is
awfully we'll liked. The man is not '
Philadephian' and he's very attractive.
I lust won't tell who it is, but she's
bad big dance given for her and she's
been given theatre parties and lots OF
dinners anG she's had n wonderful time
I know it's true, because.
"ou see, the wee bird was in the next
room when "he" talked with her over
the telephone recently, and BELIEVE me,
there Is no doubt Of the engagement.
She discussed when It would be an
nounced with him, and it will be soon.
