I wonder what mado them change
their minds? Just think, It they had
not we would all have been treated to
n great sensation! As it is now wo will
never know just why they decided to
1 use their better judgment and wait till
Papa gave his consent; for lot mo
whisper It carefully, not two weeks ago
a cortaln young dob nnd an ardent
young suitor had positively decided to
;,-run off to Elkton and then return for
Papa's blessing. I understand Papa
does not think "Cedric" Is. making
cough: anyhow, tho wild rebellion has
. for tho time being been squolchcd, and
perhaps wo never will know all about it.
Was it on a wager or simply "bo
cause" that a pretty young thing
brought out a pocket edition comb from
her vanity bag and ran it through her
carefully waved locks at a supper
party lately? The uso of powder puff
axd lip stick In public Is no longer a
thine to gasp at, so constantly and
frankly does my fair lady uso them,
but Is It possible that a comb Is also
permissible and qulto commo il faut?
A 1916 model Lorelei, what?
'Whllo In New York this week I was
Impressed by tho new obsession which
thas taken hold of all smart Now York
ers, that of tho skating fad. Wo in this
itald town liavo seen exhibited many
ravishing skating costumes, and somo
few of us havo bought them for uso on
the small ponds which dot tho coun
tryside around Philadelphia; but most
of us, I fear, havo been content. to don
our plaid or striped skirt and our last
Bummer's sweater or sports coat and
(ally forth to enjoy tho brisk skimming
over the Ice. But not so In New York!
There, Indeed, has tho sport become a
ceremonial without which no ono's cal
endar is complote, and to facilitate
matters a rink was placed on tho Bllt-
' inore roof? so that ono need not jour-
" ne,y over to Tuxedo for real open-air
port. The rink Is surrounded by a
Mplass enclosed teahouse, and hero ono
may enjoy a real tho dansant, or I
(uppoae one should sav tho glacee.

f U one of tho few Phlladoluhla cirls
who go over to Now York for thoso

New York debutantes liavo become
Proficient dancers on tho Ice. Tho ben-

Mrs. Tony Blddlo Is soendlncr a short
Vme w(h her young daughter, Cor-
uua Duke, who while on the avenue
ae day this week looked charmingly
youthful. Indeed, both mother nnd
.daughter, or should I say grandmother
mother, look entirely too youiiff to
r" me responsibility of the little
Hse. heir on their hands. When I saw
tttm their limousine was standing out
ae Best's, where I suspect they had
