and guessing about. The duChesses
have been chosen and this past week

court frocks, and trying to keep every
one but their best friends from finding
: out that they are duchesses. Their
names have been officially announced
now, however, although the names of
their duchies have not yet been decided.
The duchesses in her Majesty's Court
of the Sea are Lady Ruth WHY'S of
! the House of West, Lady Joyce of the
House of Mcclellan, Lady Mae Louise
of the House of Schreiner, Lady Hen
Eloise of the House Of Carr, Lady Is

I will sit up and take notice. Aphrodlte:
the goddess of beauty, will be proud
