Novel Parties
Urged for
Debutantes
Betty Friend
Blazes Way
AT Pine Lake
BY MONA DUGAS.

"Why can't We have SOME
THING DIFFERENT in the way OF
debutante parties in Washington"
is a question which has been
brought up several times recently.
Instead of lust another tea or re-
ception" debutantes Of other cities
often present some unique enter
tainment for guests at their debut
parties. News of the recent party
at which Miss Betty Alice Friend
was introduced by her parents. Mr..
and Mrs. James Albert Friend, at
their home, Mistral Villa. on Pine
Lake. near Milwaukee, brings up
anew the question.
Miss Friend. who is we'll known
here, as she attended Mount Yer
non Seminary, received with her
parents on the veranda of the white
stucco Mediterranean home. From
the veranda guests descended TO
find a gay circus scene laid out on
the broad lawn which stretched
down to the shores of the lake.
Musicians were seated in a sham
carrousel, and played such pieces as
The Popcorn Man" and The Man
on the Flying Trapeze.' Straw aero
bats surrounded the dance platform
near the lake, where a midway" of
4 cane and ring games, a peanut
| wagon and a pink lemonade stand
added to the gaiety Of the party.
Miss Nancy Bitner, who was a
classmate of Miss Friends at Mount
Vernon, went to Milwaukee for the
summer debut party with her par
ents. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Bitner
Of Boston.
! Miss Friend wore canary yellow
gown Of point d esprit over match
ing taffeta, and had yellow roses in
her auburn hair Aqua velvet rib
bon ending in a large bow knot
in front showed through the double
skirt, and deep ruf7e finished of
the shoulder neckline.
/ Some Original Party
Themes Suggested.
There are many original ideas
that might be carried out in the
campaign for something different"
Instead of a circus. a hostess could
arrange an old-faShioned Colonial
setting for daughter who boast

TOME SCHOOL TO END
EXISTENCE JUNE 80
Failure To Solve Its Financial Problems Is
Announced AS The Cause
Announced AS The Cause

The speaker then told the COM
mencement audience that his great
uncle, Jacob Tome, in 1894 had set
aside $2,5O0,000 as an endowment
fund to operate the Jacob Tome In
stitute in Port Deposit.
This institute, which is for the
free education Of children of Port
Deposit and vicinity, has no actual
connection with the Tome school.
The institute will continue to on
crate the town school in accord
ance with the terms of the perpetual
endowment.
Tome School is situated on a high
bluff overlooking the SusQuehanna
river, while the institute is on the
street level of Port Deposit proper.
Mr.. Tome continued by saying
that in 1898, six months after his
great uncle's death, a charter was
procured from the institute to build
and operate Tome School on the hill.
This was done for the dissemina-
ton of preparatory education for
boys and as an investment of the
surplus of the endowment fund.
1.-THE result was there were very
few years when Tome School did not
cause the trustees to go into the
capital of the trust in order to meet
deficits" the speaker said.

Tome School, Port Deposit, will
pass out Of existence on June 80 and
its buildings will be used for thigh.
er education" according to an an.
nouncement ON Monday at the com.
mencement exercises.
Richard e. Tome, vice-president
said the decision to close the school
was made after failure to find a
solution to our financial difficulties
Twenty-one students were given
diplomas.
Concerning the future status OF
the Tome School, which was found.
ed forty-one years ago, Mr.. Tome
said: after successfully preparing
approximately 5000 boys for college
engineering schools, universities
and the business world, Tome is
about to enter the field of higher
education where she can do the most
good for the most people.
"We honestly believe that this
campus, these trees and this soul
which has been developed here are
to be dedicated to the best possible
service. We believe that this trash
ton will be the finest thing we of
Tome can do for the community, the
State, the United States Of America
and even the worldwide cause of de-
mocracy'.

GOVERNOR TAKES
ACTION ON
937 BILLS
l 200, 900 Words Of Pro-
posed Laws We're Read

In taking final action on the last
of 937 bills passed at the recent ses-
sion of the Legislature, Governor
Herbert r. O'Conor has completed
the monumental task Of reading APP
proximately 100000 words Of pro-
posed lw, plus at least 5000 letters
for and against the various bills.
In addition, hearings were held on
a number of the bills, the Cover
nor sitting one day in the House of
Delegates Chamber from 1890 in
the morning until after IL o'clock at
night. Innumerable conferences by
phone and in person completed the
requisite check-up on all the bills.
OF the 937 passed, Governor
O'Conor finally affixed his signature
to 854 and vetoed SO, among the
latter half dozen bills that would
have provided for gambling in one
form or another.
AS many as $500 letters were re-
ceived for and against one bill, while
several of the other controversial
measures brought foods of tele-
grams and communications Of all
kinds approaching the 1000 mark.
The review and action on this rec
ord number of measures was I'M
doubleday the greatest task of its
kind ever laid upon the shoulders Of
a Maryland Governor. Fortunately,
the Governors decisions were well
received, almost without exception,
and only in one or two of the very
controversial bills was there any
voiced objection to his announced
decision
