Army Officers
Find Brid es
in Atlanta
Society
I ,
THE fact that Atlanta is head
quarters for the Department
of the Gulf, and the prox
imity of the army post, Fort
McPherson, to the city, is a mat
ter of congratulation to the social
world, the army set. recruited from
the department and the post con
stituting an interesting part of At
lanta's society. The Atlanta girls,
who become the wives of army offi
cers and leave the city when duty
calls their husbands to other posts,
are the cause for the only regret
experienced by the presence of the
delightful army set.
One of the prettiest and most
popular of last season's debutante
set will be lost to Atlanta society
when Captain McKinley carries
his bride, now Mis- Margaret Dis
os way. to Fort Oglethorpe. Cap
tain McKinley, while never sta
tioned here, has been a visitor to
his army friends in the city, and
charming Miss Disosway. whose
own particular friend in the army
set here was Mrs. Emil Laurson,
daughter of General Mills, the for
mer commander of the Department
of the Gulf, was among the many
young girls who met the gallant
voting army officer. Since Mrs.
Laurson’s departure to Fort Ogle
thorpe. Miss Disosway has fre
quently visited there. The wed
ding is the outcome of a romance
thus begun. Miss Disosway will
be married at the summer home
of her parents, at Black Mountain,
on September 18, invitations to
which ceremony were issued this
week.
An Atlanta young woman who
became the bride of an army offi
cer. once stationed here, is Mrs.
Roscoe Hearn, now visiting her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Park Wood
ward. Other members of this con
tingent of former Atlanta girls,
now the wives of Uncle Sam's
army force, are Mrs. Jack Hayes,
wife of Captain Haves, stationed
at Fort Hamilton: Mrs. Pepper,
formerly Miss Gentry, of Atlanta,
and wife of Lieutenant Pepper:
Mrs. William K. Riddle, wife of
Lieutenant Riddle.
Plan Wedding For Fall.
The only news which causes a
ripple of excitement in the social
world at present, concerns the
brides-to-be. Announcements are
not numerous, but those made
. have been vui; interesting'. Some
of.tiie city's mo-i popular young
women will be married this fall,
and an undercurrent of anticipa
tion runs below the dull calm of .
present day life. There w.il be
• many parties for the autumn bride,
these to cause tile fr.-t signs of
social awakening earlv in October.
The debutantes are being counted
upon to fuinis'n special interest in
the early fall also, and ’.'.‘tile
there ai:e not so many as last year,
a number of pretty girls a"e to
come out. taking the places made
vacant by the girls* ho leave the
tanks of the younger set to be
come young matrons. No plans
for debuts have been formulated,
and many of the future debu
tantes are still out of the city.
I though every day brings back
some of the summer wanderers.
The clubs are becoming more in
teresting with each week's assem
blage of people who have been ab
sent for weeks or months. Many
