NANCY WYNNE SEES QUIET WEEK
ERE EASTER FESTIVITIES BEGIN
Members of Society Journey to South Carolina to At
tend ftoosevelt-Sinkler Nuptials Main
Line Walking Club
NEXT week wilt bo particularly quiet,
for oven those who do not strictly
observe Holy Week aro wont to spend
this season In quiet nnd resting In prep
aration for the, gala dayu to como Im
mediately after Raster.
It has become vory much the thtntr
now for tho girls who attended St.
Mary's School, at Pocksklll, to return
thcro for tho week, not only the debu
tantes, but many of tho girls who havo
been out for several years. Alva Ser
geant has mado It a custom and
Qretchen and Mary AHco Clay also go.
Bomo of tho debutantes who were pupils
thoro last year and who havo consid
ered going up for Holy Week nrc Bes
sie Downs, Helene Martin and Sarah
Kellson. Thoy make a sort of retreat,
you know, for St. Mary's Is an Angli
can school taught by Anglican sisters.
Every One Is Interested In Emily Sink-
ler'a marrlaga to Nicholas Roosevelt,
(whlch will bo an event today at tho
Slnklcrs' homo, Celvldero Plantation,
at Eutawvlllo, S. C.
Both Emily nnd her slstor, Caroline
Slnklor, aro well known here socially,
as Ihoy havo often visited their aunt,
Mrs. Charles Drlnton Coxo, and sho
and Eckley havo entertained for them
on various occasions In fact, so thoy
tell mo, It was while visiting hero that
the brldo of today mot Mr. Roosovolt,
who, by the way, Is a cousin of Teddy's,
and has been living In this city for sov
oral years. Of course tho Coxes havo
Bono down to tho wedding nnd some of
the Slnklers. Elsie Slnklor and Emily
Read Fox nro to bo bridesmaids, to
gothor with Honrlctta Kollock and Har
riot Williams, of Charleston. Odd that
both bridesmaids' names from Philadel
phia begin with nn E and tho two from
Charleston with II.
Caroltno Slnklor will bo tho maid of
honor. It Isn't to bo a church wedding,
as tho housn Is so suited for an affair
of tho kind, and then it will be so sum
mory and wonderful out on tho grounds.
Gcnoral Charles F. d. Slnklor, her
father, will glvo her In marriage, of
course. It Is gratifying to know that
another rtellglrtful Southern woman will
be added to tho elite of Philadelphia,
and ono who Is already known and, as
Is tho rest of tho Slnklor family here,
much liked.
Bocausa really, I do not know of any
family of mon and girls so universally
popular as tho Slnklers. Dens married
Emmy Rhodes, you know, and Whar
ton's wife was Louise Elkins, then
Frank married Mildred Pearce, and
aren't Jack nod Charllo asked to every
thing going on, as aro Julia and Elslo?
Their fathor, tho lato Doctor Slnklor,
was ono of tho beBt loved doctors In tho
city.
