SHARPLKSS'S fiance, Major
Pcarbon, M. C, expects to re
turn shortly to France. Their engage
ment was announced Just within the last
fortnight, and he has been staying uo In
York Harbor with tho Sharplesscs since
then. .
There nrs as yet no rumors as to
whether thcro will be unother hurried
wedding In this case, but, goodness rac,
that docs not signify anything these
days when you make up your mind on
Wednesday thut you lovo and then
next day decide that as ho is going to
war or to camp there's not much use of
waiting for tho tying of the knot, and
so off you go us gay as you please and
marry at onco nnd take a two or threo
day wedding trip and then back home to
pa and ma, and life goes on in some cases
Just as if thcro had been no extraor
dinary occurrence to interrupt the oven
-tenor of your way. Hxcept oh, and that
Is it except that for tho girl there is
tho knowledge that to some one who
may soon bo In grave danger sho means
all tho world, and tho man knows that
no matter what happens to him or what
his temptations and sorrows aro thero Is
waiting for him at homo his greatest
treasure nnd it helps each one to live
and prepare for a happy reunion when
once this teirlble war Is over. And their
characters will certainly bo greatly
helped by tho suffeilngs of separation
and anxiety which their two hearts
lone will know, for though tho suffering
is common to many It is also individual
to each one. So go to it, young people,
y I with all my heart.
AN'D now, because I have been phlloso-
Phlzlng and getting very solemn
when I think pf what all this means to so
many lives, 1 am going to switch off thr
current and turn to another and tell you
of what befell u certain young man wo
H know at a .Maine resort one very cold
venlng.
Ho was staying with his aunt nnd had
been invited out to dinner. Well, it was
awfully cold, und when ho came down
stairs ready to start off for tho ferry
(for he was going fiom one harbor to
another), wearing his light summer over
coat over his dress clothes, he, lnnki
o- chilled that uunty said, "My dear boy,
-ou must not take that trip across the
bay without a scarf or something around
Jour neck." "But I haven't got a scarf
with me." 'Then you must run up and
Wke one of your uncles. You'll find one
in the right hand corner of tho third
bureau drawer." With many protests
ons nephew finally gave In and rushed
upstairs at tho' last minute, grabbed a
carr 8 he thought, from the drawer
nd Just caught tho ferry over.
He was seated Insl'do tha littlo old
wmt. for in spite of tho scarf he was
wo cold to go outside. Suddenly he hap
Pened to look up nnd baw two girls op
Poslte him and that thoy were nearly
choking with laughter. That seemed
grange, for they wcro not flippant girls.
hd evidently did not wish to attract his
mention. So, of course, thought nephow,
it cant be mo they are laughing at."
. VJ"nt later ho heard a Blight titter
t his right, and, turning, observed n

honestly. If you could havo seen that
bird's expression! Well, It was ono
scream. I wonder what's up, don't you?
Don't mind Nancy, my dears. Now
and then she gets a bit slmplo, hut It's
all In a day, you know, nnd you never
can tell.
YKSTEHDAY came the news that En
sign and Mrs. Edmund S. McCawley
arc being congratulated, on tho birth of
a little daughter on Monday of ibis
week. Mrs. McCawley was Margaret
Bannard, $ou lemembcr. One of that
large number of attractive girls who
made their debut about live years ago.
Tho same time as Katherlno Kremer
Page, l'olly Page Brown, Kachel Lewis
Miller, Mabel Norrls Dickson, Dorothy
Roberts Bullitt, Elizabeth Roberts Clay,
Cecllo Howell, whoso engagement to BUI
Rowland was announced about a month
ago, and ever so many others. Taking

Well. I can't say I nm surprised. An
nouncements of engagements seem to bo
synonymous with announcements of
wedding dates. I've been wondering if
Muigot will tako her pet ukulele with
her op her wedding tilp. She carries It
about In the trains, you know, nnd plays
and sings littlo tunes all to herself when
not riding In her motor to und from
Overbrook. So what could be cuter than
to take It along and sing little songs to
Aleck on their honeymoon?
Sho Is the only daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. William Ellis Scull, you know, and
was educated abroad until tho time for
her debut. Aleck Blddle Is a brother of
Mrs. John I'cnn Brock. Mrs. A. J. Drexel
Paul, Mis. Charlton Henry and Miss
Christine Blddle. His father was tho lato
Dr. Alexander Blddlo and his mother was
Miss McKcnnon, formerly of Pittsburgh.
Mrs. Blddlo Is a remarkably handsomo
woman. She and her daughter Chris
tlno live at 2123 Locust street.
THE death last week of Mr- Jones Wls
ter places a large number of Phlladel
phlans in mourning. Ho is tho last of
his family of four brothers, John, Wil
liam notch, Fiank and Rodman Wlster.
His wife was Mrs. William Welghtman,
her maiden name having been Miss
Sablna d'Invilllt-rs. She married Mr.
Wlster some twenty years ago. He leave
two daughters by his first marriage. Mrs
William Barclay and Mrs. Arthur Mason
Chichester. He had also live stepdaugh-
tets, who are all living at present. Much
sympathy is felt for his wife, for of late
yeais, since all the daughters havo been
married, Mr. and Mrs. Wlster have been
quite Inseparable. NANCY WYNNE.

people there, and of course the boys did

of all kinds of stunts, for, you must remein
bci. when no ninny men get together In a

Tho minstrel part was furnished by tho
Company C chorus, and then there wero
monologues, ocal nnd Instrumental solos,

quiet wedding down there. But such short
things are furloughs that the bridegroom
had to return to his post two days later.
Young Mrs. Oalbralth is now staying with
her mother. George's brother, John GaU

Lieutenant Clinton Wunderllch, who was
recently at Fort Niagara. Is now stationed
nt Annapolis Junction, Md
Quito a few I-ansdowners nro going to
stay at the shore during September. It
does almost seem as If this were the most
delightful time to be there, for the days
will be growing crisp and breezy, and theio
won't be nearly so many people to crowd
tho boardwnlks, and, oh. yes ' the bathing.
so these late stayers say. Is always most
alluring at this time of tho year Anyway,
the Robert Taylors, the Culver Boyds. the
.1. Milton Hngys and the Frank Sagendorfs
all expect to stay down at Ocean City till
the middle of the month They'll hae a
good time, too, for they are Just the Jolllest

been with them. Young Ray Ogden, who Is
with the ambulance coips at Allentown, ex
pects to lcae soon for France.
Well, vacation Is oier for a lot of the
children In Lansdowno, for the public school
opened yesterday. And you can Just bt
they will all be saying the same thing they
say every September that It's been the
shortest vacation they ever spent And per
haps they will be grumbling a bit about
lessons; but they'll soon forget how hard
these are when basketball and football be
gin, won't they?
All the boys nnd girls who have been
