Kensingtons

kensingtons
A note of originality was given
the two delightful Kensingtons at
the II. c. Ditmarson home this
week when Mrs. Ditmarson and
Mrs. C. B. Larson were joint
h~ostesses, by the very tastefully
planned decorations and entertain
ment features. A flower basket
ornamented with a large bow of
orchid ribbon and filled with daft
fodils formed the ce%nterpiece for
the luncheon table. Glass candle
sticks with orchid tapers were at
each end of the table. Hand
painted place cards marked the
covers. When seated at the
luncheon table each guest found
a clever favor also in the colors
of the afternoon, orchid and ca
nary yellow. These contained
notices and merry little hats
which added much to the pleasure
of the occasion.
Another original stunt for a Ken
sington afternoon was the award
ing of prizes by the drawing of
numbers corresponding to those
held by the guests. At Mondays
party Mrs. John Appefgren, Mrs.
o. G. Heinze and Mrs. Thomas r.
Forbes were the lucky winners.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Jess Sille-
rud, Mrs. J. G. Veldhuis and Miss
Virginia Nesbit held the lucky
numbers.

But Stephenson Acts to Set
Aside Order Issued by
Judge Leathers.
ENGAGES NEW COUNSEL
Default Entered in Fight for
S10,600 to Support

Mrs. Nettie Stephenson Brehm,
former wife of D. C. Stephenson, to-
day held the advantage over the ia
nous life prisoner in her suit to
compel him to pay S1O,600 for sup
port of their 11-year-old daughter.
Florence Catherine.
Superior Judge James NJ. Leathers
Saturday entered default against
Stephenson because no attorneys had
appeared, for him for several weeks.
He had been represented by the firm
of r. z. Johnson and A. n. Cowan,
but they withdrew several weeks
ago.
Meanwhile new attorneys took up
the job of saving Stephenson from
another reverse. l.. o. Hill and Paul
Newman obtained permission from
Leathers today to file motion to set
aside the default. Floyd Mattice. at.
torney for Mrs. Brehm, consented to
this move so the matter would come
to argument.
In order to get the motion into
court Hill and Newman must OBJ
tain Stephenson's signature at Indi-
ana State Prison, Michigan City.
where he is serving a life term for
the murder OF Madge Oberholtzer,
indianapolis.
Hill and Newman said Stephenson
did not know that he was no longer
represented in the case.
II Judge Leathers should deny
the motion to set aside default he
can enter judgment against Steph-
enson without further steps and
Stephenson would face the loss of
another slice Of the fortune which
he boasted he built up while he
was a power in Republican State
politics through his leadership In the
Ku-Klux Klan.

Tomorrow and Wednesday aft
ernoons at 5, Milton c. Work
will be at the L. S. Ayres & Co.
tea room to talk and demonstrate
his theories Of Auction Bridge.
For years he has been recog-
nized as the final authority on
this game. He is to it what the
Supreme Court is to the law of
the Nation or Mussilini to Italy.
When he has spoken, no one dis
putes.
He is so recognized because
bridge players for two genera
tions have yielded to him the
high honor of greatest skill and
the most scientific reasoning.
Under his guidance. the ANA
teur learns how to properly bid
hands and how to obtain all the
tricks possible. His advice has
helped thousands to properly ap-
preciate the game and to become
welcomed partners instead of
avoided pests.

an co-defendant, Judd Gray. acted
alone in the staying of Albert Sny-
der, who was pictured as a husband
who trusted his wife implicitly and
paid her the compliment of access
to all his funds. Yet she swore
she neither hated him nor loved
HMM fact, was unable to analyze
her feelings toward him.
Throughout the morning session
she was cross-examined by counsel
for Gray and for the State.
William Millard, Gray's attorney,
spoke slowly and carefully and made
her cry.
Charles F'roessel. assistant district
attorney, spoke harshly, "barked"
at her. gestured at her and made
her answer sharply.
But neither was able to force an
admission that she urged Judd Gray
to help kill her husband to collect
