ITEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, GA., SUNDAY, JULY 27, 1913. 4 H nrW* Folly Continued from Page One. vrsant Fish next Friday night. She has announced that she will appear as a fairy In fluffy white with wings and a wand, and her sole Jewels a string of famous pearls. Prom all 1 can hear, this ball to be given by Mrs. Fish will be a wonder ful affair. Some of the costumes to be worn will be remarkable In their novelty. T hear that Mrs. Robert Goelet. who is one of the handsomest married women in the Eastern set, is having an elaborate “Little Bo Peep” costume made. It will be the product of special artists and cos tumers, and Mrs. Goelet has pur chased a little lamb, which she is training for service at her side in the ballroom. Dainty satin strings will be used as leading strings for the little lamb as Mrs. Goelet walks about the dance floor. L ET me tell you of a novel after- the-theater party which came to my attention last week. It may offer suggestions for those in search of something new at this dull time. A party of the younger set—some or eight girls and men—motored out to Piedmont Park, after the show, and instead of sitting at little tables under the electric lights and eating something they didn’t want, they went over into the children's playground and spent a Jolly hour. In the moonlight, swinging in the big swings, shooting the chutes and d >- ing other stunts with the playthings which the kiddies of that neighbor hood use I understand that the girls were a charming group and M jUlt too ftWOOt tor anything,” as they romped and played and laughed, making believe they were Just little girls Instead of dignified maidens “standing with re luctant (?) feet where the brook and river meet.” Sitting comfortably in a big swing, their chaperon, a mer ry-hearted woman, who has not lost her youthful heart, looked on with smiling lips at the pretty s-'ene. until she thought the playtime had lastei long enough, when the party was hus tled Into a big automobile and every body went home happy. I hear that the example of thli group is soon to be Imitated by other near-debutantes and maybe by some of the older couples as well. • • • A LL the world loves a lover, and •specially a royal lover. So all England and a good part of the United States is delighted over the love affair of Prince Arthur of Con naught and the young Duchess of Fife, whose engagement haH Just been announced. Prince Arthur has lonjj shared with his sister, the Princess Patricia, a great popularity, and there have been rumors galore of Impending engage ments. At one time he was said to be desperately In love with Lady Mar jorie Manners, who is now the March ioness of Anglesey. It was said that King Edward was about to approve of the match between these young people when he died, and that King George would have none of it. The young Duchess of Fife Is prac tically unknown in English society, owing to the seclusion In which her mother chooses to keep her family of daughters. She is described to me as r nice-looking blonde, with pale, in effective eyes. My informant adds that she has a lot to learn about dress; that all her clothes have be<m homemade, in primitive, ill-fit tins: fashion. At a recent royal party she and her sisters were dressed like charity school children They won long buttoned boots that looked any thing but smart. She is an expert fencer, and It Is aaid that she has few equals as a flshemoman for wilmon. She rides to hounds with all the daring of a man. When in society, she is so dif fident that she has been nicknamed "Her Shyness.” However, she will have $5,000,000 in her own right on her marriage, and once released from parental suppression, she may bios gom out into an agreeable-looking woman. Incidentally the Prince is not tn Adonis among men Though quite good looking, he is slightly shrunken on the left side, like tne German Em peror, and walks with a limp. Added to that, a perfectly bald head, he in not one. I should imagine, to appeal to a fastidious American girl. • • • M R. AND MRS WILLIAM RAW LINGS, who have recently built a charming home in Druid Hills, having come here from New York for permanent residence, are now in Paris. They spend a part of each summer abroad, and left At lanta for their annual trip soon after the marriage of their daughter Kath erine to Philip Wilcox in June. From Carlsbad greetings to Atlanta friends have recently come from Mrs. J. P. Norfleet and Miss Ada Nor fleet, of Memphis, who are abroad tor the summer. The home-coming of Miss Mary Allgood Jones, who has been abroad for several months, was somewhat marred by her illness upon arrival. She is all right now. I hear, and with Mrs. Jones will be guests of Mrs. Hugh McKee for a time. After the first of September they go to their home for the winter, Miss Jones to be a debutante next teason. Miss Jessie McKee. the young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Mc Kee, has arrived in New York, after a year at school in Berlin. She will accompany her father for a trip into Canada before coming on to Atlanta. At this season one often sees the names of Georgians In the cable dis hes from the playgrounds of Eu- At St. Moritz Mr. and Mrs. T. Dash wood are registered pa from Atlanta Mrs. Peter Brugulere, of Savannah, always a striking fig ure and noted as an elegant dresser, is in London for the season, as has been her custom for years. She has a large circle of friends there, by whom she is grentlv admired. Among those friends are Mrs. Wil liam Northrop McMillan, of St. Louis, and of No. 19 Hill street, London; Mrs. James McDonald, the Hon. Mrs. Henry Coventry, formerly Edith Kip, of New York, who entertained a par ty for Mrs. Bruguiere at her house on Grosvenor square recently. Mrs. Bruguire is one of those Americans who go over to London every season and entertain their own special circle, which is often a most delightful and Interesting one. HEARD a story the other day which throws an interesting side light on our old friend, Andrew Carnegie. The “Laird of Sklbo” Is noted for his thrift, but I did not think that he carried it as far as this story would indicate. Mr. Carnegie, accompanied by hi. q wife, daughter and a few friends, had been traveling in Switzerland. On the arrival of the party at Lucerne the majority wanted to stay a few 1 days longer, as the weather wa c spiendid. Mr Carnegie, however. ■ pointed out that the money for the. sleeping cars from Basle to Paris' would be lost, and they went to Paris At another time it was proposed to vary the booked voyage in a manner ' which would entail a cost of $4 extra j each. “Four dollars is a lot of money,” said Mr. Carnegie. And the extra trip | was abandoned, * • • AM very anxious to find out Just what caused Mr. and Mrs. Edward Beals McLean to desert Newport so hurriedly. A few weeks ago Mr. and Mrs. Mc Lean arrived at the summer colony with Baby Vincent, fourteen automo biles. dozens of horses and a great retinue of servants, took possession of Black Point Farm, and prepared for a season of pleasant gayety. At that time it wag predicted that the lovely Mrs. McLean, who was for merly Evelyn Walsh, the Colorado heiress, would be the reigning belle of Newport. It was said that the fa mous Hope diamond had been taken along and would be worn on several occasions. But suddenly last week the McLeans packed up, hired a makeshift special train, and left for Canada. They announced that they would be gone at least a month I am sorry to hear this, for I have such an intense admiration for Mrs. McLean that I was looking forward with groat pleasure to her social achievements at Newport. * • • A TLANTANS remember well An na Pavlowa, the Russian dancer, who appeared here with Mikael Mordkin in their wonderful dances. Mademoiselle Pavlowa, I understand, will appear here again next winter. This young woman has attained tremendous popularity with the royal family of Russia. Indeed, the Czar admires her so much that he has com missioned the famous Russian sculp tor. Seraphln Soudbinine, to model her in several poses. These models of Pavlowa In “The Swan.” “The Baceha- nale" and other of her dances will be reproduced in the private porcelain factory of the C2ar. The products of this factory are kept exclusively for the use of the imperial family and for gifts for their personal friends • • » I "' WTLVE young women, popular in society, organized themselves into a little club, which for sev eral meetings lacked a name. So much gossip went on over the card tables—I have this straight from a member—that the girls decided they had gossiping proclivities equal to a scrubwoman’s, so then and there they nam* d their organization the "Scrub by Club.” Although the members entertain ea^h other at weekly meetings with dpi ntv luncheons and all wear their prettiest clothes, they still dub them selves the Scrubbies. and all of them are called by their intimate friends, though some of these do not know what the name implies. D R. AND MRS. THOMAS PHILIP H1NMAN and Master Thomas Philip Hinman, Jr., with Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Broyles, are enjoy ing an extended trip through the West. The party have just completed the five-days” journey through Yel lowstone Park, where they ©pent a day or two at Old Faithful Inn, a noted retreat in the chain of hotels’ through the park. On the completion of the trip through the Yellowstone. Mr. and Mrs Broyles will return to Atlanta, but Dr. and Mrs. Hinman and Thomas will visit Seattle. Portland and Ta coma. returning home the middle of August. • • • I^/JISS NELL PRINCE is a lovely I J member of society who has re cently returned home, on the completion of her college course at St. Elizabeth College, Morristown, N. J. Following her graduation, Miss Prince, with 21 other graduates from that institution, enjoyed a most de lightful class* house party in Fairfield, Conn. A round of pleasures had been arranged for the seniors, and after the disbanding of the house party, Miss Prince went to Paterson, N. J.. where she was the guest of Miss Mat- tie Simon. Miss Prince will figure largely in the gavetles of the coming winter, both Mhe and her sister. Miss Nancy Prince, being exceedingly popular. • • • V |RS FRED HOUSER and Miss j J Alma Nance gave an informal bridge party Thursday morning at the apartment of Mrs. Houser in the Virginian for Miss Viola Wade and Mrs. Ben Wade, of Palmetto, Fla., guests of Miss Alma Nance.
