Mercy! After Ths Says gmoa The Whole Town Will Swarm With

hat with a touch of silver upon the
side, while Mrs. George Crawford
was more attractive than l ever
saw her in my life, 'cept maybe
once before when | caught sight
of her underneath a big picture
hat. She wore cream gown-sort
of Dorothy Perkins shaded by the
the rose lights of the porch. Mrs.
James Hicks was gracefully attrac-
tive in green, while Mrs. Alex Cecil
diffused winsome prettiness of ap-
pearance with gay hospitality in
costume of gray, with hat that,
in its touches of carmen, lent color
to her face. Mrs. Talley was in
pink and Mrs. E. A. Richey in a
black gown fashioned with liEes of
particular style-distinction.
Mrs. R. R. Stotlar looked SO
pretty-but I'll vow I cannot re-
member what she wore. l always
get SO busy about what / have laid
off to say to her and what she la
telling me, / don't remember any
thing on earth she ever did wear
but that adorable Mother Goose
costume she affected for the sake
of the little sick folks at the Chill
dren's hospital one Charity bazar.
And that must have been so STUFF
FLY uncomfortable and heavy with
it's grab-bag pockets, she nearly
died. l recall the thing that im-
pressed me was that Susie never
complained of it-probably would
never have if she had had nerv-
Gus prostration. She's that kind.
Wish 1 could tell you about all
those Birminghammdrs l saw-and
was happy to see again. But there
were SO many it would take pages.
Maybe someday, you can know
them every one-and that will be
better than all. A charming wom-
an was Mrs. Carr Mccormack
and SO much I liked Mrs. Frank W.
Miller.
