Jed Cross Jf?aZy at Wayne Taylor-Maynard Nuptials Took
Place on Saturday Nancy Wynne Talks
on Various Matters
rpHERE was a Red Cross rally out at
Wayne last Thursday, under the ntis
plces of the Vayne branch of the society.
It was a vory successful nffalr, nntl of
course everybody was on hand to hear
Lieutenant Frank Sutton, who cavq a
talk on hU experiences nt the front, and,
as everybody who has heard him knows,
they are some experiences: He told again
about giving the Turks "ni Rood ns' they
sent" in the way of hand grenade, mid
incidentally losing a hand during the .lead
ing. It, certainly seems to be incidental
to him, for he drives Ills own car. pl.iyj
an awfully good game of golf and does
all kinds of things with his one left hand.
, He's the most popular person I ever saw,
everybody is so fond of him. Mrs. Henry
Brooks, chairman of the Wtayno Red C.'o-,
presided at the meeting the other nl.Tht
and Mrs. Ledynrd Heckscher, chairman
of the entertainment committee, assisted
The Red Cross members all appeared In
uniform and It was a most attractive
sight .Among those who were noticed in
the audience were Mr. and Sirs. John i:.
Cope Morton, Mrs. T. T. Wat-on Mr?
Thomas Wufon, Mrs. Archibald J Burk.
lie, Mr, and Mrs. C. C. Harrison, Mr and
Mrs. Carroll Hodge, Mr. and M. William
B. Hart, Mr and Mrs. Horace Montgom
ery, Mr. and Mrs. Lawt'on, Mrs. Fred C
Embick, Mrs. W. W. Alexander, Mrs. Mat
thew Randall, Mrs. Robert Dornan and
others.
TSX'T it wonderful how jou hear of an
engagement on one day and almost be
fore you have time to breathe you hear
Of the wedding-' There's Pauline Maynard
and Bill Taylor! Their engagement was
announced only about a month ago and
then Pauline came up here from Knoxville
to stay, and lo and behold! she'll never
go back to Knoxville as Pauline Maynnrd.
Cause why? Well, they decided' that
"owing to the exigencies of war" have you
noticed how I like that expression, "exi
gencies of war"? I've got a run on that
now they'd be married now.
Well, to return to the wedding. It was
decided last week that the wedding should
take place on Saturday, and take place It
did, at the Home of Mls alary Vanuxcm
in Chestnut Hill, for you see Miss Van
uxem Is an aunt of Paulino's.
In these days of exquisite-looking reaily
""made frocks It Is not Impossible to be mar
ried and have a whole slew of brldcsmaldi
in fetching gowns even on one day's notice.
And in this case there was more than one
day's notice, because there- was tlmo to
have Elizabeth Maynard, Pauline's sister,
and Elizabeth Madden, a dear friend, come
up from Tennessee: to be maids of honor,
and Eleanor Atkln and Edith Harvey, nlso
of Knoxville, came up to be bridesmaids.
Then Marlon Taylor, Bill's sister, and
Patty Borle and Mary Hebard were the
bridesmaids from Philadelphia. PattS
Borie Is a first cousin of Bill's, you know.
Bill wanted to have his brother. Captain
Clement Xewbold Taylor, as best man, but
he could not get on, so Francis, a second
brother, acted the part. Xewhold, yo'u
know. Is engaged to Anne Melrs, and I
suppose that will be the next wedding we'll
hear of.
AND we have in out- midst these days
.a new Master Walker, son of Dr. and
Mrs. Warren Walker. Mrs. Walker was
pretty Helen Perot, with her glorious
golden hair, you remember. The Walkers
have been living In Ardmore since they
moved from Twenty-second street. An
other arrival In the social world as well ns
whirl Is n small daughter for the Houston
Dunns. Mrs. Dunn was Elsie Taylor. The
Dunns are extremely popular members of
the younger married set of this city, as
are the Walkers.
AREN'T they cunning, theso little weo
. kiddles that you see every once in a
while in uniforms, who want tov be Just
like daddy or brother? Most of them have
bobbed hair under a stiff little cap, and
they march along tho street, with mo.ther
holding their hand tight. Yes, and some
of them are quite "up" on military eti
quette, let me tell you. As for instance:
There was a certain small seven-year-old
walking along, proud to pieces of his
reg'lar sailor suit. People are apt to
notice you so much more lf you are In
uniform, you know, and he was realizing
the truth of this fact and enjoying it a lot
when whom should he see approaching
him but another sailor a real one, 'and
not just a "pretend one," with a "bang"
showing under his hat. Well, do you
think ho didn't know what was expected
of him? Believe me, he did. His little
mind knew that that sailor was his N su
perior, and what do you do to your su
perior? You salute him, of course.
Hadn't ho seen that done lots of times?
So' he stood very still and very straight
and very tense and very stiff and saluted
oh, splendidly! And tho big sailor looked
down and saw his manly little counterpart
and gravely and with infinite courtesy re
turned that salute. Nice of him, wasn't It?
For when we realize how many times a
day he probably has to make a salute
anyhow, he might easily have walked past
Without noticing the weo small boy.
