3 H TTEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, (5A., SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 14. Um. Oi E ARl^T in November the marriage of Misw Jessie Wilson and Francis B. Sayre will be cele brated in Washington. It will be the first function of the kind the White House has known in seven years Great preparations are quietly being made for the wedding of the daugh ter of the President of the United States. The East Room, where the ceremony will be performed, has just been handsomely decorated in ivory and gold. Miss Jessie. I see, is to follow the example set by the German princess bride by having her trousseau made entirely in her native land. 1 suppose our "royal wedding” will not be at tended by the blare and flare of that which recently took place in Ger many, but the same patriotic interest centers in the approaching event, which in the most notable of a vast number to take place In these United States this autumn. Miss Jessie is the beauty of the Wilson family. The "good looks" fairy was rather generous to this young bride-to-be. She is slightly taller than her elder sister. Masses of beautiful blonde hair. simply dressed, accentuate the fine contour ! of a gracefully poised head. I no ticed at a White House reception J attended soon after the inauguration that Jessie’s eyes were of the real violet color—not blue, nor green, but violet, and she has a really fine com plexion. Her taste in dress s^ets off her style, too. The elder sister. Margaret, on this occasion at which I was present, at tracted much Interest because of her likeness to her father. She is really a tiny mite of a girl, and it is rather Miss Alice Mai) freeman the charming young women of the social world. Miss Free man is a petite and aristocratic looking girl, with gracious man ners and a delightful personality. She is the elder daughter of Mrs. Leila Lowry Freeman, and a niece of Colonel Robert J. Lowry. (Photo by Lenney.) v> ■ -• V '■ l&l ■ \ Wm* .. : :y VM m - ■' - - -■ dy startling at first to be confronted with a pocket edition of the Presi dent in petticoats. Eleanor, the third of this trio of sisters, has a breezy, vivacious manner. Her eyes are brown and snappy, and she speaks enthusiastically on all subjects. The three girls, as I looked at them standing near each other, appeared to me to represent three distinct types—all American, to the core, but different. Margaret is gracious and sweet and home-loving; Jessie is more aggressive, with well-formed ideas along the lines of sociology. She is really the "high-brow" of the trin ity. While Eleanor is inclined to ward athletic sports and having a good time generally, I predict that she will be very popular as a White House belle this winter—Eleanor. I mpan. Everybody in Atlanta is in terred in the Wilson girls, of course, and in the wedding-to-be. I have hoard that a number of peo ple will go to Washington for the event from Atlanta and Savannah. Among the Atlantans who will prob ably go is Marjorie Brown, the young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward T. Brown. Miss Marjorie, who is a cousin of the Wilson girls, was n guest for a week at the White House this, summer. Marjorie is a pretty young girl and may he asked to he a bridesmaid. ■ * * I HAVE heard many expressions of anticipated pleasure on the part of the golfing contingent at the Capital City Country Club over the improvements soon to be mad • on the links. Ton kno - of course, chat the present nine holes are favorably sit uated near the lake vid 1 understand that nine more sporty holes are to be Med These are to he much fur ther apart and with the kind of haz ards seen on the Scotch links. The new nine holes are to he through some very pretty woodland toward Peachtree road and the side of Brook- haven drive, and the start and finish for the eighteen holes will be right at the clubhouse. ^ I HAVE heard of setting clocks ten minutes fast and watches fifteen minutes slow, but never have I heard anything to equal the nerve of When they returned from the thea ter the other evening, he begged leave to rest for a few minutes, though the • ’av hadn't been unusually tiresome. ••Well/’ she asked, “what time is it?” It just happened that he had mis placed his watch—but hadn’t lost his head. Turning somewhat away he pulled from his pocket a bright half dollar and in a second told the time— that is, the time minus about half an hour. t*he never nreameu of the boy’s in genuity and was much puzzled when her mother lectured her next morning on the topic of time. The young lady learned the kind o f watch the young man carried, and the first thing she did was to buy a watch bracelet, which she wears con stantly. * • • FIRST ROUND. Reat the tom-tom, pound the keys. Crook the dhows, bend the knees. SECOND ROUND. Set the muscles, clench the fist. Dip the glide und whirl and twist. (Have no heart for friend or brother, One hard blow deserves another.) THIRD ROUND. For each bruise that's placed on you. Leave a mark that's black and blur. FOX RTR ROUND.

Now that the ban has been lifted at East Lake. there is much fancy dancing tD be seen there. Some of it is extreme ly graceful and some isn't so pretty, but there is no extreme dancing al lowed. even though turkey-trotting and tangoing is favored to the exclu sion almost of the waltz and two- step. I noticed, however, at a recent dance several young couples used the waltz step as a variation for twirls and pirouettes, with a few waltz measures in between, making a rath er showy terpBichorean performance There are two young couples who attend many of the dances together and whose splendid dancing Is al ways followed by admiring eyes. These are Dyda Nash and Eugene Haynes, and Allene Fielder and Eu gene Kelley. I watched them for quite a while last Wednesday evening anc £ Fall i it in iVmiiiWimmiit The famous < Aisle is full of Fall Novelties. HiHiMiinMiiiiim Style Books 5c. . RICH & BROS. CO B Fashion Sheets Are Free. Jj enjoyed the dances as much as the young couples themselves did. By the way, I noted a little inci dent recently at one of the country clubs, fuller details of which 1 found out by an inquiry or two, which shows that utmost pains are being taken to have these dancing parties strict ly limited to club members. One young man. who is pretty well known, went to a club of which he is not i member and was vigorously turkey- trotting when the president of the club approached and asked If he was there as a guest. "Oh, yes,” the young fellow re sponded; "1 came with So-and-So,” naming a prominent member of the club. The supposed host was asked abou' the matter and dented that he had •< guest. Thereupon the president asked the young man to depart forthwith. * * * T HE young men who live at a cer tain fraternity house in Atlanta have been much wrought up lately over the invasion of their dom icile bv a popular young girl of the city, it seems that this girl—a very pretty and attractive young woman with a daring disposition—knew that one of the boys at this fraternity *house had a pic ture of .herself taken in a bathing suit of extreme cut. She asked for the photograph, but was refused b> the bby. SSt ttn mind pictures of the picture hung promi nently on the walls of his room and subjected to the curious gaze of all the hoys in the house, this daring young woman decided to get it her self. So she went down one morn ing. unchaperoned and alone, walked boldly up the stairs of the bachelors’ domain and into this man’s room. She looked hurriedly around for her picture—which was nowhere to he seen. She searched on the dress er and the mantel—and while there were girls and girls and girls about, her picture was not visible. Then it was she bec ame really de termined to have that photograph— seeing that he didn’t appreciate it, anyway! So she tumbled out the contents of drawers and trunks, and finally found the picture stacked up with a lot of others behind a vase on the dresser. She departed w ith her find, leaving the room in great disarray Happily for her. no one was around, and had she not told of her escapade, no one would have known of it. T HERE are two pretty sisters in Atlanta and they have a wealthy aunt who greatly fa vors one of these in the beautiful presents she sends back home for ihe girls from her annual European trips. Invariably she tickets the prettiest and best of the things she send* w itn the name of her favorite niece. Of course, the other sister is proud of the silk stefekings, the Roman pearls, the Paris blouses, etc., that her aunt incloses for her, but. accord ing to the law of human nature, she has become piqued because of the evident favoritism in these offerings. It so happened that the last box of things arrived from Europe one day last week when no one was at home but the sister who gets the seconc choice. She opened up the box, an 1 of course saw that all the choicest thines w ere for her sister. Hie temp tation was too strong for her. sg she exchanged all the tickets, putting her name on her sister’s gifts, and vice versa. When the famllv inspected the bo:, great surprise was expressed over the distribution of the gifts. But now th*» guilty sister is wondering what aunt is going to say when the Imperator brings her home 1 next month! * * • y HE past w eek has been gladden* 1 by the sfrrlval of a number of young folks in Atlanta whose names are not yet inscribed on the social register, but are destined so to be in the future. One of the very in teresting new arrivals of the week was Miss Marion Peel Calhoun, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Phinlzy Cal houn. The little one has a notabte ancestry, and unless all signs and portents fail, she will one day be a belle. Her mother was Marion Peel, tho youngest daughter of Mr. and Mis. William Lawson Peel, and her father, Dr. Calhoun, is the son of the famous Dr. A. \V, Calhoun. The little girl has two handsome brothers, the threo children all being magnificent speci mens of childish beauty. The young son of Mr. and Mrs. Presley D. Yates is another interest ing arrival of the past week. This little fellow is the grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Richardson, his mother having been ?*Iies Julia Rich ardson. He is to bear the name of his great-grandfather, Charles Richard son. In the same block on Peachtree the arrival of two sons was greeted by fond parents last week. Charles Dan- nals. Jr., whose mother wa« Martha Whitman, was born in the apartment of his parents in the Palmer, while down the street a short distance Mas ter James Dawkins Cromer, Jr., was welcomed by his parents. Dr. and Mrs. J. D. Cromer. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Harrison Jones (Kate Waldo) have a handsome young son. who was horn last week, and still another newcomer, whose birthday lies within the second w I of September, is Miss Jane Margaret Morrison, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alston Davis Morrison, the latter having been Miss Allison Badger, one of last autumn's brides. * * * The tftoii* bnii ha* the golden wing*. The ftrrftg hnn the flame: Rome hug* have no wings at all. An auto wins their game. SEE that Bill has fitted his car with a new siren," said the man I went to the show with Monday night, to ids friend, as we waited on | the corner for our automobile. "yes,” said the friend, with a cun ning smile "good looker, loo." • * * -T'HE delightful early autumn i I weather has brought out many j golfers and tennis players at j the country clubs. The cool breezes j make the long-favored water sports j possible only to ‘the very hardy. I , noticed at East Lake the other after- j noon many golfers on the links, both : men and women. Mrs. Tom Paine, one of the best of the East golfers, came home . from White Sulphur Springs, where ! she shared the brilliant social life of] the season, with trophies of her i prowess at golf and tennis, for she | found time for these sports in spite ; of the nimerous affairs which have made up a gay social calendar there j this summer. I believe Mrs. Paine has added four i cups to her collection of golf tro- | phies with her playing at the White, i She seems to have acquired the habit, .lust before she went to Virginia. Mrs. Paine won several handsome trophies at the tournament of the Woman’s j Southern Golf Association, which was i held in Tennessee this summer. Mrs Valdemar Gude is another I woman who is playing a fine game of ; golf. Mrs. Gude is a most enthusi- I astic advocate of out-of-door sports —swimming, golfing and tennis play- j ing. She dances beautifully, too. and is always h very busy and popu- I lar guest at the clubs—playing golf ; in the morning, and sometimes in the ! afternoon, and dancing in the even - I ing. Mrs. Gude and her sister. Miss i May O’Brien, are accounted among ] the very best of the East T,ako con tingent of golf and tennis players, and their popularity at the dances is j attested by the fact that they are ! usually the center of attraction. * * * HAVE been wondering if the col- j lege boys in this part of the ; country are going to take up the college auto robe fad. While the Tech colors are almost too dainty. Georgia and Mercer colors would make up into beauties, and their insignias are pretty, too. Of course, even if this does become a fad, the boys can’t be so generous with these valuable robes as their pennants. But the possession of one becomes all the more desirable for that reason. w ’Am fen D fen i J dm fen jm 'm pm fen ’ M Pm pm Rich’s Suit Store is a Little Paris Accurately Reflecting the Capital of Fashion, With Scores of Reproduced French Models New Silks from over seas will be shown in all their beauty Monday (Left Annex) J Buttons are Fashionable and tho store that al ways lias had the best as sortments still maintains its leadership.
