large, 1t seems that Philip had
time between serious studying,
to do a bit of concentrating on
a certain darby lovely girl, now
visiting here in town. So much
did Philip concentrate that it
seems that this darkly lovely
person is now "the guiding
light" of Philips life.

GALLY JEROME, clever and
~ attractive wife of Major Jer-
ry Jerome, who has been Ma
rine aviation attache at Bogota,
Colombia, is, among other
things, a reader of palms and
though she laughs and vows
that she is the merest amateur,
she is, in reality, amazing in
her knowledge of ones hands.
Sally merely glanced at our
right palm the other afternoon
at the wedding reception of
Lieut.. and Mrs. John Osgood
Lambrecht, U. S. NJ, and what
she told us has left us walking
in a trance ever since.

CAPTAIN William (Billy) Ben
" nett, who is stationed at
Belvoir, has just recently been
elected President of the Officers
Club, there. This Officers Club,
not at all incidentally, is the
most attractive place and a pop
ular gathering place for both the
Officers and their families. One
thing, the swimming pool, is
particularly intriguing with blue
tiles and underground electric
lighting and right along side OF
it is the smaller pool, a favorlte
spot for the children and those
groWnups whose swimming is
not expert enough to allow them
to venture into deeper waters.

pretty matrons in this town.

she and her husband were Or
dered here, it was to Mrs. Hart,
a delightful homecoming. Col

Aberdeen Proving Ground but
will be assigned to duty at the
War College, early in Septem-
Der.
The Harris have one cunning
son, named Mickey" Mrs.
Hart who is dark with a lovely.

deal, and the other SAY, at
luncheon looked especially smart
in a deep blue, handknitted
suit.
MRS. Hardy Pages cocktail
WA party, last week, for Mrs.
Livingston Bell, was one Of the
very incest of the year. Mrs.
Page (Frances) chose to give
this party at the house of Com
mander and Mrs. Arthur Rob-
inSon, in Georgetown. the lat
ter couple being old, old
friends of Frances. The dim
inutive garden, directly off the
living room, was most inviting
with its green and white furni-
ture, it's feathery green arbor
and the shade from two big
trees, that draped themselves
like Sentinels, over the garden
wall.
THE buffet in the dining room
i was generous and decorative,
with a pink and sliced ham, tiny
scarlet beets followed out and
