Than Ball Gown.
A pretty girl in a st ay tailored suit
li. n out of the \ragon hotel, slipped
under the steering wheel of green au
tomobile with a young man Inside it
and was off toward East Lake in a
I hurry.
"There goes the Eleanor Sears of
I Atlanta." said another young man. who
was left behind ami looked as though
lie was sorry. "She swims, rides, drives
■ i motor, runs a motorcycle, plays bas
ket ball and lives outdoors. If she
doesn’t ride to hounds, it's because
Ith < re's no hunt club in Atlanta, nor
any foxes."
Tile girl was Thelma Harrell, whose
father. B. Prank Harrell, is manager
of the Aragon. Miss Harrell lives in a
hotel, but she is far from being a »it

she had rather swim than play bridge.

Lake this morning. Yes. it was cold.

than this. But that's salt water, you
know.

used to love to ride, but since I've
grown nt' il to motoring I don’t care
for horses. They seem slow. yon

But I have so many good friends with
motors that I really wouldn't have any
use for a car of my own.
“Os real games, basket ball is my
favorite. I played on the Hanna school
team last year, you know. It was lots
of fun. <>f course. I like tennis. I'm
