How many of our charming Atlanta bridos- to-he will have wedding clothes which will amount In value to this ligure. 1 am afraid there will be none. But that Is the price Miss Prances Sco- vllle. the Kansas beauty, will pay for the trousseau which she recently pur chased In Paris for her wedding to Walter De Munn Mr. De Muiin, you know. 1s a scion of the famous French Champagne house. But my readers 1 know, are more Interested in the wed ding dress and the trousseau than they are In the man who made Extra Drv famous. Through a friend, who happens to be an intimate of Miss Scocille, 1 learned somo of the do t-ails The wedding dress Is of tt white soft silk brocade, with small silver thread and a long train, and a long panel of real old face. Her favorite evening gowns Include a red one of tussor cloth, with n heavy beaded top. Another of clt- tonelle, colored with silver and a chif fon Wdth small ermine bands. Each has an evening coat to match. The choicest gowns include one In the new coltle cloth with a pleated pannier, another is of tan chiffon cloth with a Valenciennes and tulle waist and a la rye blue sash. Tailored suits in elude a blue serge, short coat with ted buttons, also a white corduroy, being fashioned In the shape of a Norfolk tecket. Isn't she the lucky girl? • * * A ATLANTA may pat the soal of: approval on the tango and I I that Mrs. Hugh M.

I haven't any doubt that after an afternoon of looking through milli nery stores and dressmaking shops. many a creation would be disposed of which otherwise would hang forever in ih*' shop But 1 don't think that Atlanta merchants will find tt a pop ular Innovation Photo bjt Wcfik> tUrthbuff.

The lac whose word is law in a certain set of Atlanta's swelldom, was visltiug in Druid Hills and while waiting for her friend to appear decided to make friends with the young hopeful of the house This kiddle, after answering a few questions, decided to ask a few on his own account. ‘ How old are you,” he demanded abruptly. This somewhat staggered Mrs. % R U t she answered as sweetly as possible. “Oh. I guess l am older than you can count,” she said. “Huh,” said the youngster, “I can count up to a hundreds Mlladv nearly fainted aud there Is no telling what would have happened had not her friend Just then ap peared on the scone. W ILL you kindly pass the pansies, or perhaps a candied vioiet you’d like? No, the cauliflow er is more to your taste? The secret’s out in that last suggestion, for the remark which began like a bouquet' selection is really a luncheon choice. The fruitarian menu (which sounds more like a floral menu* was the uov- Ity of a dinner given by 30 girls of the Gariand School of Home-making I and several friends of Mrs. VY. H Henderson, president of the Anti-* \ > i tion Association of New Kng- ihd. given at Mr?. Henderson’s home i New Y'ork last week.

They tell me that after raising the Capital City’s Club limit of members to 800, on as suming a country club property, the applications fur new membership tn one week were nearly as much as the increased membership. I predict a gay and successful season for the Brookhaven Club this year. There is no reason that I can see why this prediction should not he verified. When the highway now un der process of “improvement” is com pleted, the automobile ride from the city to Brookhaven will be line. The club house has ample grounds, a good golf course, a beautiful place for swimming and aquatic sports and broad and spacious porches for sum mer afternoon tea parties, to sa.v nothing of a spacious ballroom tvt turkey trotting and tangoing Atlanta society folks do not need to go away for summer pastimes nor cool breezes. The three clubs—East Lake, Brook haven and the Piedmont Driving Club —all furnish amusement and interest, and nowhere can Atlantans find more attractive surroundings or greater di versions of amusement. Of course, a change is desirable, and the mountain air and the moun tain view, also the sea, w ith its sort bathing and its “view,” will have their quota from Atlanta's social cir cles. Still the fact that life here b mar visits, and at all times during the warm weather there will be num bers of interesting people “at home,” and the social record w'ill not be de void of interest. For where two or three are gathered together in their best clothes there is society—and something interesting to tell about. K LTHOUGH the "home team” does not do a great deal to inspire enthusiasm these days, loyal fans among the girls, as well as among the men of the city, have crowded the grandstand at Poncoy every afternoon the past week. I no ticed a half dozen members of the younger set smnewhat crouched to gether on account of the chilly at mosphere at a game the other day. The girls knew when to “holler” for joy, or moan for defeat, just as well as the men who were with them. And they did not "put on airs,” either, al though those same men were not as good at noting the fine points of grand opera as the girls were of the baseball game. As l sat watching the bright, en thusiastic faces of these girl fans, l heard a shrill voice behind me. which held no trace of the Atlanta accent, ask of her companion, another girl; “L>o you understand this game?” “No,” replied her friend, also speak ing without the Atlanta accent. “I don't understand much, except that everything is settled by that little man out there they call the vampire!” has been made ss de Chaulnes is going abroad for the summer, accompanied by her sister, Mis3 Shorns. 1 have heard that when the mance of th© Duke and Duchess de Chaulnes cast an added glamour over the young and charming American widow in the eyes of the gallant Frenchmen, and an adulation was ac corded her such as no American wom an ever receives. It is natural that she should prefer Paris to New York, where, despite all that is written on the subject of American women’s in dependence, where is never the same ceremonious attention, and—let it be whispered—where women as women never attain the same importance In the estimation of men as in Paris. Now. the Duchess is going back for a happy summer, I hope, after spenc ing two years here, in accordance with her father’s wishes. Marguerite Shunts, the younger of the two sis ters, prefers London and English so ciety to Paris, 1 have heard. Her par ticular best fTiend is the Duchess of Manchester, who is the very happy and contented American wife of a ti tled Englishman. The Duchess and her sister are making their annual visit in Washington at present as guest9 of Mrs. Oarence Moore. Last year they spent part of their summer at the Shonts home near Mobile, and l suppose the recent destruction of that place by Are may have influenced their decision to go abroad this sum mer. Pago regime. What the English aristocracy con sidered the late Amb issador’s bril liant home to be, I don’t know; but I agree with them that the Pago fam ily is more typically American than that of our late esteemed representa tive at the Court of St. James. By the way, the daughter of the Page house hold has announced that while she will be interested and delighted with her foreign residence and opportunity to meet the men of other nations, she is NEVER going to marry any but an American—and one at least halt as nice as father,” Miss Page fondly adds. % « • P ROSPECTIVE brides of the sea son were much interested in the cabled details of the wedding of Princess Luise of Germany, as was the remainder of the feminine world also, l suppose. The wedding gowu f the Princess was too “regal” Cor any but a royal bride, being of cloth of silver, shot through with gold thread* Silver embroidery executed in the myrtle flower—sacred to Ger man brides—bordered the gown, and the corsage and wedding veil was of rare and. costly lace. The train was lined with ermine, that rich fur of royalty which rich Americans have usurped to a certain extent. The bridesmaids’ costumes sound like simplicity itself—“rose colored satin, with trains,” the foreign re porters told us. By the way, the royal bride wore elaborate Jewels, chief of whkh was a necklace, composed of forty magnificent diamonds. For the rest, the description of costumes would have easily been appropriate to an Atlanta wedding -“channeuse, veiled in chiffon, with shadow lace”— th© evening toilette of the season has a sameness of material, h.i*t differs each in its ow n glory of color combi nations and that elusive "line,” of which we hear so much and in w hich the cachet of a costly garment mostly lies. « * « W HILE on the subject of fashions —a subject w hich Polly Peach tree, in common with all other women, can talk upon by the hour-— l will record the revival of a fad which was at its height three or four years ago—that of wearing handsome colored beads and near-jewels in long necklaces, with white or light colored blouses. I recall a gorgeous necklace of vivid red beads, which lovely Lpulie Roper used to wear with her white blouses, wound round and round round her throat and hanging down to her belt. The beautiful red beads harmonized well with her glowing beauty, and 1 remember that one day, when I asked her where she got the strange ornaments—different to any I had seen—she laughingly told me that one day in visiting an Indian encampment with a party of friends, as she stood by and watched the others dicker with the Indians for their bright-hued beads, suddenly a lithe okl Indian with a fanciful head dress that denoted his chieftanship stepped up to her and threw the gorgeous beads over her head, saying in broken English that they looked pretty on the pretty lady. And they certainly did. I have noticed a discriminating wearer of colored beads in Atlanta’s younger set recently, Miss Helen tkirgan’s pale amber necklace of large cut stones according as well with her blonde coloring as did Miss Roper's gay string with her dark eyes and hair. A bit of pleasing color intro duced in the light color l summer costume with discrimination is alto gether desirable—a stFing of coral, amethyst, amber or pearl, with the day toilette, and a purple dahlia, a red rose or a pink gardenia with the evening gown. Upon such small de tails does the effectiveness of a cos tume often depend. * * * V11LDRED BOBB, of New Orleans. I J is receiving a warm welcome in Atlanta, even as did her elder sister, Marjorie, who was one of the past winter’s extensively entertained guests. The two girls are charming types of Southern beauty, and are popular in New Orleans. Mlidred s still a schoolgirl, and has come all the way to Georgia to attend Lucy Cobb this year. She came to Atlanta di rectly after commencement to spend awhile with Ruth Reid, an Atlanta representative at Lucy Cobb. Of course, the girls will go back for Geofgia” commencement—no Lucy Cobb girl ever misses that event. Between the 13th, w T hen “Georgia” commencement begins, and the clos ing of Lucy Cobb, Miss Bobb will have a good time in Atlanta. Miss Mar jorie Bobb is a debutante of a year’s standing, and took a conspicuous part in (he carnival gaities this year, an honor to which all New' Orleans debuntates aspire. When in Atlanta she was the guest of Miss Jennie D. Harris, who returned to New Orleans ior the carnival season as Miss Bobb’t guest. * * * \ m RS. LEIGH PALMER, of Wash- j J ington, D. C„ is a former popu lar Atlanta woman, who is hav ing an interesting time in Washing ton this year. Mrs. Palmer, as the wife of the aide to the Secretary of the Navy, accompanies the Score tary’s party to many naval reviews and other public ceremonies. On Fri day a party of Washington people, among whom were Secretary of the Navy and Mrs. Daniels, Lieut. Com mander Leigh Palmer and Mrs. Palm er, Miss Ethel Bagley and Josephus Daniels, Jr., were present at the Me morial Day exercises in honor of the heroes of the Maine disaster when the mast of that ill-fated ship was erected in their honor at the Brook lyn Navy Yard. The Washington party was on board the V. S. S. Dolphin, and cruis ed over the week-end. Saturday they attended the annual baseball game between the Army and Navy at West Point. They return to Washington to-day. familiva I pleasant will artTVb toifru.'tail sum I T is amusing to note the social im portance attached to the Ameri can Embassy in London by Eng lish society.
