CHATTER ¢ SOCIETY
BY POLLY PEACHEHTREE
HE girls who went to Macon for
T the leap year ball last week
throw amusing light on what
We may expect at the forthcoming
Affair with which Atlanta girls may
have an opportunity to repay (he
Courtesies of their friends among the
Young men-—-also to repay discourte
sies, from the accounts aforesaid.
Por instance, Dorothy Arkwright
declares that the most amusing as
pect of the rainbew ball was the
vlainly displayed anxiety of the men,
¢s to whether or not they would be
sopular at the affair. The girls, of
tourse, asked the men to dance, “cut
In" on the other giris, and all that,
According to why. the “stags”
who grouped 1t ives about the
baliroom wore a look of strained anx
iety or of “pained pleasure” while
ihey waited to be asked to dance, in
stead ¢f the we'i-known look of MJ
dom or superiority such as men

her reminiscences of the very first

ATLANTA, GA., SUNDAY, JANUARY 16, 1916,
fare me, times uv’*m
| Here's another instance of the
change: :
I “The girls all wore calico frocks
'm the men wore ties of calico to
match the costume of the girls they
Ibmum. Their gowns were beautl
qur made—generally by hand, and
the hand of the pretty wearer, at that,
The girls looked lovely, too, Just as
';.u-m as you girls do now in your
chiffon and silver lace™
- Of course, 1 didn't deny it, nor
could have thought for a minute of
denying it. She is a Iving refutation
of such a thought. I queried the gen-
Itle lady about the belles and beaus of
that ball. And some of them she
Imentioned I remember. There were
' Miss Nellie Peters (now Mrs. Black),
Mrs. P. H. Snook, Miss Augusta Hill
(later Mrs. Joseph Thompson), Mrs.
Lewis Clark, Mrs.-J. H., Morgan,
Misses Leila Pullen, Georgia Cooper,
I(}ussie Mitchell—"maiden names”
Ithese‘ long since forgotten by their
friends, who know them now as mem-J
bers of Atlanta’s Pioneer Society
I mayhap. 1
; Somewhat like a modern girl, this
belle of lé\f: sixties could recall manyl
more of she men atithe.leap year ball
than wemen! if
«.“’l"fiére was Henry Grady, Hayne
EBis, Jogeph Thompson, Ralph Pe
ters, Hugh Angler, Louls Orme, Ben

Amorous (center) and
Miss Janet Hatcher. On
the extreme right stands
Miss Helen Barnes. of Ma

Mrs. John Marshall Slaton.
Many parties have been
given for the visitors.
Hill, “the Alexander Dboys,” Jullus,:
Clarence and Joseph Albert; Major
J. H. Morgan, Sidney Dell, Joseph
Scrutchin, and ever so many more.”
I believe some of those men went
“stag,” even to a leap year ball!

T the brilliant reception last week
A when the new Mrs. Wilson made
her debut as hostesswagf the
‘\\r'hitsw House, Mrs. E.” W. Cale, of
' Nashvllle, was among the women
‘singled out as being most elegantly
‘be-jeweled in the great throng.
Washington being the city of all
others in this country where gorgeous
jewels are displayed, the triumph of
'Mrs. Cole is all the more wonderfui
I Atlanta knows and likes this grande
ldume of the South for her cordial,
gracious personality and for her loyal
support of our opera season. Not a
single ycas, if 1 recall correctly, has
Q/‘J
s Mrs. Cole falled to have a box and |
to do her part toward making At-l
lanta’s week of grand opera a success.
On some of these occasions we have
seen the gorgeous emeralds " with
which she bedazzled even -a Presi
dential reception.
Among the guests at this affair
which attracted the attention of so
ciety all over the United States was
I«:hurming Mrs. Albert L. Mills, one
)of the most popular women who has
ever sojourned in our midst. Mrs.
Mills wore a cloth of silver gown with
white tulle draperies and. some hand
some diamonds. Z
The new First Lady, who was the
cynosure of all eyes, was sald to have
been lovely, and so she must have
been, in a robe of silver brocade soft
\ened with tulle and made with a full
court train. G

I‘Of the affair. Callie wore white satin,
leth pearl embroidery and Spanish
fringe.
~ Mamie ‘Ansley timed her departure
from Washington at an Inopportune
moment it seems to me; for, after
five weeks’ visit with Callle, she re=
turned just before the new Mrs. Wil
son made her debut. However, Mamie
went to stay two weeks, I believe,
and was persuaded to remgin five;
so she had a great time, anyway, even
if she did miss the White House Rf-i
fair., A dinmer-party or two on the
Mayflower, 'several Annapolls balls,
numerous affalrs at the Chevy Chase
and the Army and Navy c-lut:os-—u‘n'fll

of the pleasant' incidents of Mamie's |
