IA who is a charming and very
clever person, rushed away
from Washington and prepara-
tions for the Velvet Ball, to go
up to New York to have Christ
mas Eve dinner with her fam
lily and incidentally to have a
party, to celebrate her hus-
bands birthday. When she got
there, Helen Virginia, as usual
became involved in other peo-
pies worries.
This time, the worry con-
cerned the faithful Negro man
who tended to the furnace and
floors of her house. It seemed
that Santa Claus had over
looked both he and his mother
and sister, and none of them
would have a festive Christmas
dinner. Promptly Helen Vir-
ginia, who had already ordered
a tremendous order of things
for her own party, including a
20-pound turkey, phoned once
more and ordered three differ
ent orders of meats, groceries
and useful things, to be. held
for this man to collect for him.

parted with thanks and left for
his home near Yonkers.
Came the hour of 7 o'clock
and Helen Virginia's own gro
ceries had not come. Further
more they didn't come, on &C
count of having gone, by mis-
take, to the house of her Negro
helper. The grocery man had
made a mistake. Because guests
were arriving at II and Helen
Virginia, just had to have the
groceries, she got in her car and
with the three intended boxes
of groceries, set out for near
somewhere in Yonkers.
She got there just in time TO
find the Negro man starting
back to return her groceries, Tor
he realized as soon as he opened
them there had been a mistake:
So everything was exchanged
satisfactorily and everything was
lovely, but Helen Virginla'3

taInly stealing the social
spotlight this week. Each
day of the holidays has its
quota of tea dances and the
sub-debs are making full use
of their party frocks. Young
men home from prep school

meeting first one pretty girl
and then another.
Two young ladies who will

and now are resting on their
laurels, for it was definitely
a success.
Each of the girls wore black
velvet. their frocks trimmed
with Venetian lace collars and
cuffs. Nancy's corsage was of
gardeniaS and Betty wore or

afternoon gown of black velvet.
Decorations in the room were

terrace, just outside the living

stacked woodpile was tucked
away in one corner and as
Eugene said, THAT woodpile is
II stories high" And so it was
IL stories from the street!
THE terrace, still comfortable
l. with big lazy chairs and
couches, was protected with a
grill fence, open to a star
lighted sky, and looked over a
city whose myriad lights
cleaned like diamonds on a
backdrop of midnight blue vel
vet where traffic lights flashed
on and off and far away with
the glitter of rubieS and emer-
aids, where people in the streets
below hurried here and there like
busy and tiny dwarfs, where the
wind blew past ones face with
a strange, sweet freshness and
where Helen Halloran insisted
upon being matter of fact and

French doors to tell us "to come
