Atlanta Women
- Are Leaving
City for the
Summer
IT'S a wise woman who knows where
her best friend is during this time
of summer flitting. Atlantans have
a habit of going to one place for a
fortnight, then home for a short visit
and off to another place. To many peo
ple this mode of short to various
places appeals more strongly than
spending the entire summer out of
town. The short stay at home gives
opportunity for seeing friends at the
informal teas and dinner-dances at the
country clubs and to look after the
home and business affairs, while the.
stay at seashore or mountain or
springs varies the summer's visit, apt
to become monotonous unless one Is
so fortunate as to have a tour abroad
or "a motoring tour in prospect.
Atlanta will ■be well represented
abroad this summer. Many people go
over_in July and August, though the
< majority of those who expect to make
extensive tours in the Old World have
already departed. Mr. and Mrs. John
D. Little, who spend a’ part of every
summer at favorite French resorts,
will probably sail the latter part of
July. Mrs. Little’s sisters, Mrs. Ashe
> ton Starke, of Richmond, and Mrs.
Henry Wortham, of Macon, also go
abroad at the same time.
Mr. and Mrs. John E. Murphy and
their two pretty daughters, Misses Ju
lia and Catherine Murphy, plan to go
abroad the latter part of July for a stay
of some length. ,
Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Dana, of
New York, whose marriage was a bril-
A Hant event of the spring season in At
lanta. are now In Paris for an extended
stay before sailing for New York Au
gust 1. Mr. and Mrs. Dana have had
an unusually interesting and compre
hensive trip, having visited Italy, Afri
ca. Russia and Germany They have
just completed a trip through the fiords
of Norway. Upon their arrival in New
York, Mr. and Mrs. Dana wiy come
to Atlanta for a short visit before go
ing to Mexico, where Mr. Dana has ex-
. tensive interests. Mrs. Dana was Miss
‘ Agnes Ladson, of Atlanta.
The experienced traveler, accustomed
to spending each summer in a tour of
some kind, is liable to find it difficult to
plan a new and original route each
time. Mr. and Mrs. "Walter Andrews
have overcome this difficulty in their
case, with a trip which promises nov
elty and pleasure. They leave Sunday
for Portland, where, after attending the
* national gathering of Elks, they take
an extreme Northern trip, visiting Se
attle, Vancouver and Alaska. On their
return they will come through the Ca
nadian Rockies and will spend some
time among the snow-capped moun
tains at Banff, a famous resort in the
Rockies. Recent visitors to Banff are
Colonel and Mrs. Robert J. Lowry and
Mrs. William P. Pattlllo. Colonel and
Mrs. Lowry returned during the week
from a trip to New York and a visit
with their niece, Mrs. Percy Smedley
Darlington, of Westchester,, Pa.
The Western trip does not seem to
be popular this year with Atlantans,
although a few people plan to visit the
Western coast later in the yea,r. The
motoring tour through New England
and the visits at gay summer resorts
are more favored than extended trips.
Misses Laura Ansley and Mignon
McCarty, two of the popular debutantes
of the past winter, will spend next
month at Toxaway. They accompany
Mr. and Mrs. Edwin P. Ansley and
Misses Frances and Mamie Ansley
