For instance, Dorothy Arkwright

ATLANTA, GA, SUNDAY, JANUARY 16, 1916,
tore me, times bhave changed. 1
Here's another instance of the
change ? |
“Ihe girls all wore calico frocks
and the men wore ties of calico to
mateh the costume of the girls they
brought Their gowns were beauti
fully made—generally by hand, and
the hand of the pretty wearer, al that.
The girls’ looked lovely, too, just as
pretty as you giris do new in your
ehiffon and silver lace™ |
Of course, | ‘“‘L‘.’ it, mor
could have thought & minute ot‘;
denying it. She is a living refutation
of suc)}_a. thought. T queried the gen
tle lady about the belles' and beaus of
that ball. And some of them she
mentioned 1 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,
Gussie Mitchell—"“maiden names”
these, long since forgotten bv their
friends, who know them now as mem
bers. of Atlanta's Pioneer Society
mayhap. :
Somewhat like a modern girl, this
belle of the sixties could recall many"
more of the men at the leap year ball’
than women! |
“Phere was Henry Grady, Hayne
| Ellis, Joseph Thompson, Ralph Pe
| ters, Hugh Angier, Louis Orme, Ben

1 believe some of those men went

T the brilliant reception last week
A when the new Mrs. Wilson made
her debut as hostess of ile
White House, Mrs, E. W. Cole, of
‘Nashville, was among the .women
‘singled out as being most eleganily
‘be-jeweled in the great throng.
~ Washington being the vity of a'l
others in this country where gorgeous
jewels are displayed, the triumph of
‘Mrs. Cole is all the more wonderfui.
Atlanta knows and likes this grande
dame of the South for her cordial,
‘gracious personality and for her loyal
support of our opera season. Not a
Illnxle year, it 1 recall correctly, has
7
¢+ Mrs. Cole falled to have a box and
to do her part toward making At
lanta's week of grand opera a success.
On some of these occasjons we have
seen the gorgeous emeralds with
which she bedazzled even a Presl
dential reception.
Among the guests at this affair
which attracted the attention of so
ciety all over the Unlited States was
charming Mrs. Albert L. Mills, une}
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
gome diamonds,
l 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.

was an admired guest, whose podu
larity ‘called for mention in accounts
of the affair. Callie wore white satin,
with 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 Callie, she re-I
turned just before the new Mrs. Wil-|
son made her debut. However, Mamie
went to stay two weeks, I, bellave.‘
and was persuaded to remain five;'
so she had a great time, anyway, evenl
if she did miss the White House af
fair. A dinner-party or two on the
Mayflower, several Annapolls balla, |
Inumerous affairs at the Chévy Chase
and the Army and Navy clubs—-andl
her picture in The Post-——were soiie
of the pleasant incidents of Ma.mio'll
visit. .

STHER HOLLEYMAN, one of
E our first “regularly” married
brides of the new Yyear, wili
have some fine old heirlooms in her
| trousseaun. First and foremost, is the
veil which she will wear with her
bridal tollette. The vell is 200 years
old and has been worn by several
generations of brides in Esther's fam
ily. It was brought from the Old
World by Esther's great-grandmoth
er, who was an Irish beauty, and
wore the veil of Irish lace on her
wedding day in County Cork—or
some other county in the Emerald
Isle.
A collection of rare mosaic jewelry
I which is probably unsurpassed {n Ate
llunta, will be included in the oolles=
'tion of bridal presents for this younsg
' woman. Esther's choice from the col=
;lection owned by her mother, I am
told, is a set of lovely Orlental-look=
Ilng mosaics, which bear miniatures
' of fine old churches, art galleries or
cathedrals of England, France and
Inaly. each miniature being different
and all worked out with tiny stones
\not larger than a grain of sand. i
There is a bandeau for the hair
which is of quite the most fashionable
design this year, a pair of braocelets,
a - necklace, brooch and wfln&
These will probably not be worn w.
