M RS. JOHN E. MURPHY and
Miss Murphy have come home
for the opera, after spending
two weeks with Mr. and Mrs. Ben
Gatins, In New T^ork. Mr. and Mrs.
Gatins will be here to-morrow and
will spend the week with Mr. and
Mrs. Murphy.
Mrs. Murphy was entertained at a
dinner party by Geraldine Farrar, at
the handsome apartment# of Miss
Farrar, on 74th Street, at which
several of the prominent grand opera
singers were present. Miss Farrar
also gave a tea in honor of Mrs.
Murphy, at which Mrs. James D.
Robinson, was another Atlanta guest
“resent. Last season and the year
efore. Miss Farrar was one of the
feted members of the Metropolitan
company singing here, and there Is
much regret felt that she will not
be hare this season. Mr. and Mrs.
Murphy gave a reception at their
Peachtree Street home for Miss
Farrar and she was a guest at all
the brilliant club affairs and at many
private entertainments last season.
Mr. George Ealdt, of New York also
gave a dinner for Mrs. Murphy dur
ing her stay.
If you have never seen Dorothy Wa
ters—Mrs. Benjamin Gatins—then I
suggest that you look for the very
prettiest woman you can find at the
opera, and you will be sure to see this
beautiful and charming young ma
tron.
If Mrs. Gatins has brought Just half
of the number of evening gowns she
possesses, she will have at least 25
wardrobe trunks with her; and If
she brings the number of riding suits
that she displays at Naragansett Pier,
golf suits, tennis suits and other ap
parel for outdoor wear, she will
require another ten trunks. For Mrs.
Gatins dresses most becomingly for
every event. In both social and out
door life, without regard to expense.
Mrs. Gatins went from Philadelphia
to New York to live before her mar
riage. She Is a perfect type of the
Spanish beauty you will find In the
Andalusian country; black hair, lus
trous black eyes, perfect mouth and
teeth, olive skin, and all the charm
of the young woman that you meet
during your travels In Spain, that
you see at-the bull fights in Madrid,
In the chocholade shops of Cordova
and Seville.
And she Is some expert In outdoor
sports. She wears wonderful bathing
•ults at Naragansett Pier, not for dis
play on the sand, but for good, hard
work In the surf and In the ocean. I
have seen her swim out a mile and a
half to sea and come back Just as
fresh as when she entered the wa
ter. I have seen her run a mile on
the hard sand In a wet bathing suit,
and In the afternoon I have watched
her do all the whimsical and extreme
turns of the gymkhanka at the country
club; and then tennis; and In the eve
ning at the Casino, turkey trot, bunny
hug and chicken flip until the orches
tra had tired of playing.
Dorothy Waters Is really some girl,
and Ben Gatins was a lucky man
when she became his wife.

T WO weddings of social Import
took plage recently on the same
evening, Wednesday, the 16. Miss
Nora Belle RosseT and Mr. Charles
Shelton were married at the home of
Miss Rosser’s parents, Mr. and Mrs.
L. Z. Rosser in West End, and Miss
Allene Gentry was married to John
J. Woodslde, Jr., at the residence of
Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Gentry, on Peach
tree Street.
The Rosser-Shelton wedding was a
large affair, to which a thousand In
vitations were Issued, and the resi
dences of the bride’s parents and of
her sister, Mrs. Joseph Eby, were con
nected by a floral passage way for the
entertainment of the large assembly.
In the bridal group were Misses Ruth
Rosser, maid of honor; Mesdames
Luther Rosser, Jr., and Joseph Eby,
matrons of honor; Annie May Shel
ton, Lulu Dean Jones, Martha Francis,
Passle May Ottley, Mildred Borden,
bridesmaids. There was an equal
number of groomsmen. The elabor
ate decorations were of Easter lilies,
In the drawing room, with palms and
vine-frescoed walls. The dining room
was In pink and white, Killarney
roses and Easter lilies forming the
floral adornment. The bride wore
white charmeuso, with rose-point lace
corsage, and her veil was garnitured
with orange blossoms, her flowers,
pink orchids and valley lilies. The
bridesmaids wore pink, and carried
Killarney roses, and the matrons of
honor wore their wedding gowns, both
being brides of a year ago.
Many guests of the Rosser-Shelton
wedding went on to attend the recep
tion at the Gentry home. The cere
mony was witnessed only by a small
company, but several hundred guests
attended the reception following the
marriage of Miss Gentry and Mr.
Woodside. , , _ ,
The netting for the bridal party at
tho Gentry-Woodside wedding was
most effective. The ceremony took
place in the living room, under a
floral arch, outlined with calla lilies
through which shone small electric
lights, was made entirely of pink
sweet peas and white roses, lilies of
the valley on white ribbons forming
a deep floral fringe all around this
arch which sprang on either side
of smilax and white ribbons led from
the entrance of this apartment -o
the floral bower, and all about the
room were clustered palms and gar
landed smilax. interspersed with great
clusters of the white lilies.
Pink sweet peas formed a plateau
which almost covered the table 1n
the dining Toom, in the center and at
each corner of the floral mass being
bouauets formed as nose-gays in lac~-
paper holders. A floral canopy was
suspended above the punch-table, and
everywhere in the Gentry home, the
elaborate scheme of decoration pre-
Va The'bride was lovely In white satin
■•nd chiffon, smartly fashioned and
Trimmed in lace and seed pearl em-
brofdery. She wore a tulle veil, wj,h
orange blossoms and carried orchids.
Siu,« g Nlna Gentry as maid of honor,
wore a Callot gown of whlte chMon
embroidered In pink roses, and car
ried pink sweet peas.
The popular young couple left af-
tpr the reception for a bridal trip,
and wAl A® at home temrl ° ra A lly ' £1°"
their return, with Mr. and Mrs. Gen
try. * * *
M ISS LEONE LADSON spends
much of her time in New
York, as the guest of her sis
ter, Mrs. C, A. Dana. She has been
with Mrs. Dana, who has an attract
ive home on Park Avenue, for the
Ready-to-Wear Prices Sharply Revised Downward
past week, but will come home for the
opera. Mr. and Mrs. Dana are also
coming for opera week. Miss Sarah
Rawson is expected from Texas to
morrow. In time to attend the opera,
and Misses Margaret Hawkins and
Katherine Ellis came home this week.
Atlanta needs all of her pretty girls
here next week, to sustain her repu
tation for feminine pulchritude, be
sides the many rival beauties from all
over the South who will be in the city
for the week of music.-
“G
REAT BRITAIN having no
objection,” I understand that
the way is clear for Walter
Hines Page, to the American Embas
sy In London. While by no means
society people in the ordinary sense
of the term, the Pages are clever, cul
tivated and a charming family, and
the Embassy will be a typical Ameri
can home, of the best type, during
their occupancy. Mrs. Page is a
Southerner and her name was Wilson
—a great y^ar for the Wilsons, isn’t
it? There is one daughter in the
family, Miss Katherine Page, and
three sons. The eldest son is mar
ried, but the others will accompany
their parents to London.
* * *
OOME of Atlanta’s prominent worn*
en have a busy spring season
marked out for them, Including
the opera with its attendant affairs
and several special events of - the
spring in which they will take an
active part. Mrs. Robert Maddox, one
of the leading hostesses of opera
week, will not have time to recover
from the pleasures of the next seven
days before she will undertake to as
sist Mrs. John K. Ottley and other
members of the Georgia branch of the
Welfare Committee in preparations
for a large reception at the Piedmont
Driving Club for the visitors in At
lanta for the Sociological Congress.
The reception will be given on the
afternoon of the 28th, which is Mon
day after opera week. On the next
day (Tuesday) Mrs. Frank Inman,
president of the Berry Circle; Mrs.
Maddox and many other ladies will
go to Rome to attend the commence
ment exercises of the Berry School.
Atlanta women, many of whom are
personal friends of Miss Berry, are
much Interested in her wonderful
school and do much for it through the
Berry Circle.
i * * *
M RS. JOHN W. GRANT will be
gin plans for the entertain
ment of the Presbyterian Gen
eral Assembly, which meets here in
May. Mrs. Grant is chairman of the
social committee and will be assisted
in making out a program for the con
vention by Mrs. Arnold Broyles and
other women pfTJminent in the Pres
byterian Church. The convention will
be one of the largest ever held in At
lanta, and people of world-wide prom
inence will be here at the time.
* * *
M ISS GENEVIEVE CLARK,
daughter of Speaker and Mrs.
Champ Clark, is to spend the
summer abroad. She sailed this week
with Mrs. George Harvey, wife of the
publisher, for France. After a ten-
day stay in Paris for shopping. Mrs.
Harvey and Miss Clark will he joined
in Rome by Miss Dorothy Harvey,
who is at school there. The three will
then travel leisurely through Europe.
...
I FEAR that disappointment awaits
the friends of Misses Lucy and
Callle Hoke Smith, who looked
for their presence here during the
coming week. Mrs. Ronald Ransome
has not returned from Washington,
where she was called by the sudden
Illness of her mother, Mrs. Hoke
Smith, and I have been told that Mrs.
Smith is still far from well, though
Improving. Her daughters are very
devoted and will probably postpone
their visit to Atlanta until their moth
er Is well on the road to recovery. The
Hoke Smiths will spend the summer in
Atlanta, I understand, and will doubt
less come as soon as Mrs. Smith can
travel with comfort.
. *. •
M R. AND MRS.’ EDWARD BAR
RETT, of Birmingham, have
planned a pleasant summer in
Europe. Mrs. Barrett left Atlanta
yesterday, after a short but very de
lightful stay with her sister, Mrs.
Louis Gholston, and her mother, Mrs.
J. D. Butt. She went to New York,
where they will join Mr. Barrett, and
spend a few weeks before sailing for
Italy. They will go to Carlsbad for a
stay of several weeks, and later will
visit Paris, London and some of the
French watering places. Mr. and
Mrs. Barrett will take their children
and expect to have a quiet, Interesting
stay of several months abroad. Mr.
Frank Butt, of Atlanta, brother-in-
law of the Barretts, sails for Europe
to-morrow and will Join Mr. and Mrs.
Barrett upon their arrival. Mrs. Bar
rett was formerly Miss Lewis Butt,
of Augusta, a “double first cousin” of
the late Colonel Archie Butt. She is
a charming woman, and has many
friends here. Her brief visit was
crowded with social attentions. She
was a guest at the week-end dinner-
dance at the Driving Club on the
evening of her arri'val, and on Sunday
night was again tendered a dinner at
the club by Mr. and Mrs. Edwin John
son. Monday Mrs. Barrett entertained
her family connections here at the
Georgian Terrace, later going out to
Mrs. William H. Kiser’s country place
for an informal tea, which Mrs. Kiser
gave In her honor. Monday evening
Mr. and Mrs. John Cohen gave a din
ner party for Mrs. Barrett.
* * *
T HE arrival of Captain and Mrs.
E. R. Donnelly from Fort Ri
ley has pleased their friends
very much. Mrs. Donnelly will re-
jnain^for opera, while Captain Don
nelly goes on to Washington on busi
ness. Miss Flora Bewick, Mrs. Don
nelly’s charming debutante daughter,
has been in the city a week or so,
having come from Washington, where
she was the house guest of the Misses
Lucy and Callie Hoke Smith during
the inauguration season and some
time afterward. Miss Bewick and
Mrs. Donnelly are guests of Miss
Fitten, on Linden Street. Mrs. Don
nelly is a former popular Atlanta
woman, her marriage to Captain Don
nelly taking her to the Philippines for
a two-year residence, from which she
has recently returned. Captain, Don
nelly is now stationed at Fort Riley,
where they make their home.

W ELL, well, we who have been
thinking that society had lit
tie to do in our fair city
should reflect on the following para
graph cabled from Berlin: “Society
gathered one evening this week to
witness the cinematograph of Mr
Paul Rainey’s ’African Hunt.’ Baron
So-and-So occupied a box and—”
Just think how useless it is to be a
baron and only have Paul Rainey’s
hunt pictures to interest one!
* * *
P EOPLE who are puzzling ever
“something new” as a wedding
gift for the June bride might
find suggestion in the present which
Lord Ribblesdale bestowed upon his
daughter, the rfonorable Diana Lis
ter, who became the bride of Mr. Per
cy Windham last week—six fine hunt
ing horses. A well modeled plaster
of paris group, for instance.

Tuesday afternoon at her
home on Fifteenth Street, the honor
guests being Mis's Josephine McClel
land and Miss Passie May Ottley’?
guest, Miss Mildred P>orden. and Mrs
Robert Woodruff, a bride of the win
ter.
Miss Smith was assisted in enter
taining her gues'ts by her mother,
Mrs, Burton Smith, and a few of her
intimate friends.
Dogwood blossoms and other spring
flowers adorned tne living and recep
tion rooms, where 25 or 30 prettily
dressed girls chatted together between
the hours of 4 and 6.
Two young matrons, Mrs. Jack
Thlessen and Mrs. Presley Dan Yates
served tea from the handsome silver
service in the dining room, where the
table, covered by an exquisite lace
cloth, had as its central decoration a
large silver vase filled with pink roses
In silver dishes were the dainty pink
bonbons and nuts. Pink-shaded ta
pers burned in silver candlesticks, on
which tulle bows were tied, giving an
airy touch to + he tout ensemble.
Miss McClelland was gowned in a
champagne-colored eharmeuse with a
bodice of shadow lace. Miss Smith
wore a French dress of white em
broidered net with a tracery of little
pink chiffon roses and a girdle of pale
blue silk. Mrs. Smith was charming
in black chiffon elaborately embroid
ered in black, a toue-n of white lace
softening the corsage.

A lovely visitor for grand opera is
Miss Caroline Cumming, of Augusta,
who arrives Tuesday to spend the re
mainder of the week with Miss Laura
Ansiey. A number of parties will be
tendered Miss Cumming during her

Madame Grace Corsets
A New Kind of Demonstration
Miss Barrington is more than a corset
demonstrator—she is a designer. She makes
a studv of lines; she knows anatomy and
physiology better than many physicians.
For when she designs a Madame Grace
Corset it must be comfortable and hygienic
as well as fashionable.
This, then, is not the usual stock demon
stration as put on by many stores, but a
scientific exposition on correct corseting.
Miss Barrington will be especially pleased
to help women who have had corset trou
bles of any kind. If desired, appointment
can be made by phone. (Second Floor)
