IP DREAMS CAME TRUE
I THINK you will
agree with me
that rare musical talent is not ulwas, it
Indeed ever, fully appt eclated in the bosom
of one's family. Perhaps In some cases
It would bo moie appropriate if I said
In the nerve center of ono's family
however, it is hard to make your family
realize that you are a musician until some
body tells them or It so. At least It was
In this Instance where a fond mother,
leaning over tho back fence, confided to
her neighbor, "I wisht John would give
up this here music business nnd get into
one of them ambitfon plants you hear
o much about."
MISS CONSTANCE VAUCLAIN
Miss Vaucluin, who is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Samuel M. Vauclain, of Rosemont,, is Boinp up
to Newport for the Newport Horse Show, which
will be held at the Casino, August 29, DO and 31.
Miss Vauclain is an ardent horsewoman and has
often exhibited at tho horse shows here. She will
make her debut next fall.
s
0 MUCH is dono for the soldiers, sail
ors and marines these days! This is
all as It should be. But too many persons,
I am afraid, who have been, helping to
upport other needy charities have had
their vision obscured by this big Issue at
hand, with tho result that other charities
have suffered dreadfully. And this ls a
time when these other Interests must be
kept up at all cost. The Babies' Hospital,
for example. They tell me that, although
there is a greater need than ever, sums
f mnr,,. irmnt,vl for the work have
fallen off at an alarming rato since the
beginning of the war, which Is not as It
hould be, for who needs attention and
eare so much as tho coming generation?
Those Interested In the welfare of the
hospital have devised a means of raising
necessary funds, and that is by urging
people who have been and are willing to
entertain sailors and marines do so by
buying tickets for the baseball game
between the Athletics and Boston Red
8ox on September C. This unlquo Idea
oannot fall to bring pleasure to large
tfUmbers of the men, for what man does
not love the national sport.
Tho sailors and marine themselves
have indicated a keen Interest In making
thls.a real gala day at Shlbo Park and In
helping to swell tho fund for tho babies.
They realize that tho victories they win
will avail little to the country unless tho
coming generation ls saved Many of
them are unwilling to accept tho gift of
tickets, but want to do their bit for the
little tots, who It is hoped may uphold
the ideals for which they themselves are
sacrificing so much, so they are buying
and selling tickets to the benefit game,
However, a considerable number of
them, wlio aro just as desirous of helping
the cause of baby-life conservation, can
not afford to purchase tickets. Their
money must bo sent home! These men
hould be allowed to attend tho game,
hnce the public ls asked to buy tickets
for them, 'ft Is nlnnned to give all SUCll

nation on all sides. It was one of tho.se
stoiles. which glow with each telling. It
all happened this way The ghl, al
though very young, was on her way
alone fiom n. camp in Maine to her
parents' cottage In Maryland. She had
come to the city, shopped at her home,
then was taking the train to "somewhere
on tho Eastern Shoie." As sho was buy
ing her ticket who should come up but
Johnny K : followed exclamations.
What more natuial, then, that as he nlso
was bound In that direction ho should
carry her luggage and make himself gen
erally useful for tho journey? I.ltllo did
they realize, though, that as they swung
through tho gate the inevitable "friend
of the family" hhouid spy them as sho
made tracks for her own train. Sho gazed
at them first In mild surprise, then, as sho
noted their destination, she gasped, fully
convinced that Uiom: two with a traveling
bag could only mean "filkton." Of course,
sho fairly smacked her lips over this
choice bit, and lost no time telling, with
embellishments, what she had seen. So
that by the time the story had gone tho
rounds of tho country club and leached,
finally, an aunt of the young girl, sho
had eloped and was facing lrato parents.
Tho aunt Immediately communicated with
her sister and learned the truth. It just
goes to show, however, the extent of the
damage of one wagging tongue.
TIME was when Milady donned her gar
den hat, artistically trimmed with roses
and a bewitching blue bow tied under her
chin, a flowered apron and long gloves,
arm0d herself with a trowel and betook
herself to her violet bed or her rose arbor
and played at being a gardener. She often
draped herself gracefully around the Ivy
covered gate and chatted with her neigh
bors, knowing full well that tho shado
hat, bright apron and gauntlet gloves
were not unbecoming. Time wsa. I said;
but such ls not the case nowadays. This
same air damsel has learned a thing or
two, and with tho aid of Mr. Wilson and
Mr. Hoover sho now becomes a good citi
zen, with all the virtues that expression
Implies. Sho lives In a beautiful house
with an equally beautiful and well-taken-care-of
kitchen garden attached and she
herself docs tho taking care of. Sho digs
and hoes and rakes and gets wonderful
results In the shape of tomatoes, corn,
beans, etc., and has regular days when
she Invites all the neighbors to come with
their market baskets andwlo their shop
ping early under a big willow tree. Tho
setting has a great doal on the usual
produce markets, and I don't believe tho
fair dame In question realizes the fact
that she Is twice as picturesque in her
businesslike lole as she used to look In
the cllnglng-vlne character. I can't tell
her name because sho Is a very modest
.. but lot mo add she is nlso a very
clever nnd highly respected member of
that highly respected and most exclusive
community. You know her?.
TMD you seo the "rookies" start off the

affairs, but tho young bridegroom's uni

On .Saturday, at noon. Miss Florence Ang

At theso necessarily tpilet weddings their

Isn't Ihe P.ed Ciiss a marvelous oiganl
zatlon. though? It's "always there," and it
jou drop In at any nt tho workrooms, no
mnttcr wheie they may be. you aio sure to
tlnd a goodly number of women working
away for the splendid cause And has the
hot weather kept them away from this
wolk'.' Indeed it has not. "Oilr boys will
have to fight In ail sorts of weather," these
women leason. "so why should wo complain
If It's a bit warm while we. are wot king for
them'."' And. yes: Delawaro County Is
cheerfully doing its bit. for in most of the
different towns there arc Iled Cross
branches and just lots and lots of women
Interested In them.
Out In I'.ldley Park they are paitlcularly
enterprising in this direction, Up to the
Inst two or threo weeks Mrs. Frank B.
Maltby was chairman of tho llldley Paik
branch of tho P.ed Crosst, but she has gone
to New York with her husband, who Is
doltig Government work there. So Mrs V.
K Nelson has taken her placo and is filling
it ery efficiently. The other olllcers aro
Mrs F .1. I-o Malstre, vlco chairman ; Mrs
W G Halkett, secretary, and .Miss Carrie
Ifetzei. treasurer. The 'Red Crossers" meet
.rhxrcint, in tlie Presbiterlan church.
and 'there Is generally an attendance of
about twenty-rUe or thirty women. o
can imagine Just how busily they work
when you hear that during the last two
years they have prepaied more than 10,000
dressings. 0
This branch also has something quite
original, of which It Is most deservedl
in olid, and that is a reserve supply clo-et.
Should there be any sudden disaster, such
as the nnc at r:dd stone last year, tho
women nro prepaid! to send fiom this
closet enough supplies for twenty-ono beds
In an auxiliary hospital. And then, too.
thev have endowed a bed In ono of the
American Ambulance hospitals In France,
which they aie going to keep till tho end
ofcthn war. So ou see how energetic they
really are In behalf of the Bed Cross.
Of course. Swarthmore, too, has Its Bed
Cross branch, and tho members have been
making hospital garments even on tho very
hottest dajs during the summer, for, you
know, they meet regularly on Thursdays
and Fridays They aro going to get up
a class in surgical dressings very soon.
Media Is doing flno work. Mrs. Harry
Smith is the chairman of thn organization
in that town, nnd there are ever so many
women working with her, each doing her
"little bit."
But with all sorts of woik. there has
to bea bit of piny mixed In. So Drexel
Hill has a -bridge" club of sUteen persons,
or should we s-ay four tables' The members
meet every Thursday afternoon on cool
verandas and chat and play, and have the
most delightful times Mrs. Balph S.
Martin entertained the club last Thursday.
Her guests were Mrs. George ltyder. Mrs.
David McCoach. Mrs. Kdward II. Wana
