stag party for the next week
end that promises TO be heaps
of fun. He has invited the
members of the Alfalfa Club to
come up to his estate near Fred
erick and help him harvest the
hay" We have an idea that
the pleasant drive up to Fred
erick on Saturday will put the
gentlemen in a frame of mind
to enjoy a nice cool drink upon
their arrival and after that the
Harvesting act" will be indefl-
nitely postponed. Maybe we're
wrong, but let's wait and see!
Distressing to hear of the &C
cident Mrs. Barlow Sumter
Weeks was in a couple of weeks
ago. She is a frequent visitor
in the Capital and has a host of
friends here. 1t seems she was
being driven to her summer
home, Halcyon Point, with the
car we'll filled with supplies for
the summer months when a rear
tire blew out and the car turned
over. Happily she suffered no
broken bones and is well on the
way to recovery, although she
still is nursing a number of
bruises. She has gone back to
her island home, but will return
to New York the middle OF
June for a brief visit.
The Robert Woods Blisses
returned today to Dumbarton
Oaks, their Georgetown estate,
after passing the weekend
with friends on Long Island.
They plan to leave sometime in
July for the West.
Mrs. T. Septimus Austin and
her daughter, Madeline, who
have more or less made New
York their home for the past
several years, have taken an
apartment at Wardman Park
Hotel for the summer months.
which is good news to their host
of friends in the Capital.
While the former Represent
alive from Illinois, Mr.. Fred
Britten, genial, ruddy faced
gentleman that he is, has def
nitely decided on a trip to Eu-
rope this summer, his attrac-
tive wife is toying with the
idea of accompanying him, but
cannot make up her mind COM
pletely. Alma, having made
many trips to Europe, rather
favors the idea of enjoying their
comfortable Sheridan Circle
during the torrid months.
The Robert Low Bacons-
he's the Representative from
New York, and she's an Asso-
ciate Member Of the Newspaper
Women's Club-have cards out
for mint juleps" tomorrow
afternoon at their F Street resi-
dence in honor of Miss Mar
garet Hart, Mrs. Ned Brunson
Harris and the officers of the
Newspaper Women's Club.
Just about a year ago ].
Bruce Kremer decided to be-
come a farmer" that is as a
sideline, and he and his petite
wife motored about the coun-
try-side in search of a suitable
place for him to establish his
new hobby. They found "Mul-
berry Grove" the old John
Hampton place, at Port To-
bacco, and lost little time in
making it theirs.
Now they motor down for
week-ends and plan the house
they are going to build there,
the original one having burned
some years ago. For the time
being they occupy a house on
the property which they have
converted into a comfortable
weekend abode.
With them yesterday and
Saturday were Mrs. Kremer's
son and daughter-in-law, Mr.. |
and Mrs. Herbert NJ. Bingham,
and the latters' children.
