A pretty girl in a. gray tailored suit ran out of the Aragon hotel, slipped under the steering wheel of a green au tomobile with a young man inside it and was off toward East Lake in a hurry. “There goes the Eleanor Sears of Atlanta." said another young man. who was left behind and looked as though he was sorry. - "She swims, rides, drives a motor, runs a motorcycle, plays bas ket ball and lives outdoors. If she doesn't ride to hounds, it’s because there's no hunt club in Atlanta, nor any foxes." The girl was Thelma Harrell, tvhose father. «R. Frank Harrell, Is manager of the Aragon. Miss Harrell lives in a hotel, but she is far from being a. sit a round-the-parlor girl.

"Oh, swimming." said Miss Harrell, when she was asked what she liked most of all sports. “I had a dip at East Lake this morning. Yes, it was cold. This is my laM day. and I'm so sorry. Down at our summer home at St. Georges Island we swim much later than this. But that's salt water, you know, “No, I'm not a horseback fiend. I used to love to ride, but since I’ve grown used to motoring 1 don't care for horses. They seem slow, you know. No, 1 haven't a ear of my own. But 1 have so many good friends with motors that I really wouldn't have any use for a car of my own. "(if real games, basket ball is my favorite. I played on the Hanna school teain last year, you know It was lots of fun. <>f course, I like tennis.
