enedfSdl nef sister Will enter
tain at a buffet supper.
Fascinating Nine. Kulikow-
ska-Higersberger, who makes
her home with her brother, the
Second Secretary of the Polish
Embassy, at Wardman Park,
has a most attractive afternoon
costume. It consists of a black
velvet suit trimmed with a
skunk collar, and with it she
wears a blouse of silver cloth.
Of this silver material a tur-
ban has been fashioned which
resembles two coils of rope
meeting over the forehead, and
1t is most becoming to her dark
beauty.
Greeting friends in a re-
volving door is sometimes dis
astrous! But the other night as
we were going in the Shore
ham and Mrs. John F. Crosby,
who lives with Mr.. Crosby and
their several attractive chill
dren, out on Davidson Drive
in Chevy Chase, was coming
out, we had time for a hail
and farewell.
This very stunning young
matron wore atop her blond
tresses a tiny pillbox hat of
violet shaded silk on top of
which were a cluster of flow
ers of the same shade. Her
gown matched her chic head
gear and over it she wore a
swagger mink coat.
