Nancy Wynne Tells Hovo, Church, Minister, Bride, Wedding
Goivn, Decorations and Every Other Accessory Were Acquired
in Seven Hours To Say Nothing of the Bridegroom
TTTELL, there's nothing like having a lot
' ' of friends and a sufficiently woll-fllled
purse besides accommodating stores, If you
want to be a war bride nnd that In a few
hours' notice. I heard nil the details of
the Smith-Hancock wedding j'esterday,
more than I've told you already, and It's
simply great to hear how those two young
things managed a wedding and a wedding
dress and all the other paraphernalia
needed at such times, for one must be
married In white a girl always wants to,
you know, und tho man always wants her
to, too.
I don't know Just how Katherlne got
word, but word she did get that Jas was
coming home for a twenty-four hours'
leave and would arrive at 1 o'clock on Frl.
day. They had not had any Idea of getting
married, so their friends say, till aftyr
the war. Be that as It may, when fiiey
saw each other they decided they simply
could not wait till after the war, and so
marry they would.
As I heard the story, Katherlne called
up her mother (or rather stepmother she
Is, for Katherlnc's own mother was Miss
Martha MoKennon, of Pittsburgh, and the
present Mrs. Hancock, who was Miss
Anna Blnney Drlnton. married Mr. Han
cock about ten years ago), and asked her
to como right Into town and help her to
choose a wedding dress and other para
phernalia. Well, Mr. and Mrs. Hancock gave their
consent, and Mrs. Hancock came Into town,
and they went to a store where they havo
an emergency department for war brides
and keep a number of ready-made bridal
gowns and vell3. etc., tn various sizes In
stock; and she was fitted there and chose
her golng-away frock of black serge (you
know she's In mourning for her sister,
Matilda, who died a few months ago) and
all the other accessories needed.
And among other things she did was to
remember a luncheon to which she had
been asked, which was being given by
Katherlne Lea at her home in Devon. So
she called K. I. up and told her one
reason why she could not come was that
she was being fitted Into net1 wedding
gown, and ihen asked Katherlne and the
other girls who were there at lunch to go
down to the wedding that evening at 8:30
o'clock In Old St. David's church.
What do you think those girls did?
They went straightway to that church,
taking with them any number of Ascen
sion lilies and greens and palms from
their respective fathers' hothouses, and
when Katherlne and Jas were married It
was in a perfect bower of blossoms and
fragrance, made by the loving hands of
Katherlne Lea, Lorraine Graham, Rachel
Fltler, Luctle Carter and the others who
were at the luncheon and who worked all
afternoon to make a beautiful floral back
ground for the bridal pair.
Jas Is to sail very soon, and so In the
meantime Katherlne will spend the sum
mer with his sister, Nancy Wood, out at
Three Tuns.
Katherlno's little half-sister, Anna Bln
ney Hancock, was her only attendant at
the wedding, and looked too cute for any
thing In the world In a lingerie fiock
smocked in pink. She Is only six years old,
you know, and not used to being up so late
as 8:30 o'clock, but she did her part with
the greatest relf-possesslon possible.
And so we must leave them, hoping that
an early peace with all honor to the Allies
may bring back the young husbands to
the little brides who are waiting for them
with full hearts these days of sorrow and
suffering.
MRS. JAMES LEE SHELTON was up
hero from Washington last week and
spent a night at the Rlttenhouse on her
way to New York, where she Joined her
son, David Porter Quest, who came up on
a furlough from a southern camp.
He's a grandson of Commodore Guest,
you know, and they tell me a fine young
fellow. Mrs. Shelton will go on to Gil
bertsville, N. Y., after David's furlough Is
over and spend a month there.
DOESN'T It make your heart ache to
think of Mrs. Thomas Miles, Nancy
Smyth that was? You know Tommy was
killed In action at Chateau-Thierry last
month, and the news came to Nancy from
a friend of Tommy's who had mado an
agreement with him to write If anything
happened to him. He saw Lieutenant
Miles leading his men Into action, after
the manner of our gallant marines, and in
the bravery that won him his Croix de
Guerre he lost his life. He was a second
lieutenant, and had Just left Princeton
when he went Into the service. Nancy
was so proud of him and so fond of him,
and she has been so bravo and fine about
his going "over there," although she knew
that he was right In the worst of It. She
Is still Just as brave and quiet about It;
but, of course, the uncertainty of the last
few weeks has been terribly hard when
the Government casualty lists had no
record of his death, and yet she knew It
must be true on account of the letter from
his friend. She will have his war cross
to remind her that he died a hero, and
that wjll be something of a comfort to her.
His death makes the second gold star on
the service flag of his church, Calvary
Episcopal Church, in Germantown, for
Paul Kurtz, who was killed In an airplane
accident some time ago, was also a member
there. Mr. Kurtz has presented the
church with a processional flag In mem
ory of his son and Mrs. Kurtr has given
a new service flag. These memorials to
our men who have been killed In such
glorious action may wear out as the years
go by, but the intangible memories will
never fade or grow dim.
WE'VE all heard about the small brother
who delights In annoying sister at all
times, but especially when sister's 'beau is
there, and those of us who haven't any
brothers are rather inclined to take It as
a. Joke.
But, believe me. It's no Jok-e for sister,
and certainly in this cose It was no Joke
for sister's beau. And really you would
never have thought that small brother
could have been so Impossible. He's one of
those cunning, round-eyed, stare at-you
, kiddles, with a funny tooth out and a lisp
that pops forth every once In a while.
When "comp'ny'u" around he's generally

as demure and quiet as a wee, small
mouse, but that afternoon he was surely
anything but that. To begin with, he
entered the living room, where sister and a
particularly nice young man sat, and, un
invited, Bat himself down with an unmis
takable here-I-am-to-stay air. He did stay,
too, for sister liked to be gentle with chil
dren and the p. n. young man, of course,
wanted to make a good Impression and
was wise enought to realize that the
opinion of the youngest member of tho
family sometimes carries weight.
Small Freddie proved to be a delightful
addition to the party (In his own estima
tion at least), for every time the conversa
tion lagged he skillfully caught It up and
gave detailed explanations as to how far
he had walked on that last hike of his
and the extraordinary number of snakes
he had managed to sec and kill.
At last sister, who, though outwardly
calm and serene, was growing "furiouser
and furiouser," could stand this no
longer. Interrupting a vivid account of
the fight old Mac had had with the bull
dog next door, she said, brightly:
"Don't you want me to tell your for
tune?" The p. n. young man assented eagerly,
and sister was Just about to display her
newly acquired knowledge of palmistry
when Kreddle, who was bound not to be
left out-of this, remarked sweetly: ,
"Say, I'll tell your fortune!"
"Oh, do," sighed the young man politely,
not knowing quite what to say, but hoping
that was the right thing.
"Well, here's a crack In your hand,"
murmured the small boy sagely, "and
here's another crack." And with that he
gave hjm an awful whack on the head.
What a blow that must have been to the
poor man! He had to suffer In silence, too,
and pretend he didn't mind In the least;
but sister did realize that that was the
limit and Freddie was dragged forcefully
from the room. The nlee young man still
speaks to him when he sees him, though,
which proves that he must like sister a
whole lot, don't you think?

WHAT WOMEN ARE'
DOING IN WASHINGTON
Washington, July 0.
nriTKALA-SA. "Red Bird," In tho Sioux
" language, makes her nest in Washington
this summer until Congress adjourns. She Is
a Sioux princess, and as secretary of the
Society of American Indians she Is Intent on
obtaining needed legislation for her people,
Mrs Gertrude Bonnlm is Zltkala-Pa's pale
faco name. Her husband is an officer in the
I nlted States army and her fifteen-year-old
ton, In a boy's camp In the country. Is put
ting Into practice some of the lore of his
Indian ancestors.
THEIR absence leaves Mrs Bonnlm free
for her work on Cnpitol Hill. She has
two objectives In the open campaign she Is
waging for the good of her people, one
Is Immediate, and probably will Boon be
reached : the other, full citizenship for In
dian men and women, may be postponed for
many yenrs.
Immediate legislation is sought by Mrs
Bonnlm In order to mako unlawful all traf
fic In "peynte" on Indian reservations. Pey
ote Is a weed which grows In the deserts of
the Southwest and takes the place of opium
or hasheesh to its users. The sale of liquors
has long been forbidden on all Indian lands
Mrs Bonnlm believes peyote should be placed
under the same restrictions and that It should
not be allowed through the malls. After four
teen years as teacher on Indian reservations
Mrs Bonnlm says slip knows whereof she
speaks when she declares this weed to be far
more harmful than alcohol to her nation.
AT THE peace conference, when the self
. determination of subject peoples is con
sidered, this Indian ehleftalness would create
a sensation if she appeared to plead for the
rights of th Indian. In western clothes Mrs
Bonnlm seems a plump handsome matron,
with a heavy coll of blue-black hair, nnd a
pleasing countenance. She differs In no way
(rom many other women of her age In the
Fnlted States. But the minute she appears
In her national costume of soft yellow deer
rkln, heavily beaded In blue and rose, she
attracts all eyes. Her two long black braids
frame her face to perfection beaded moc
casins and leggings complete the picture,
while around her waist Is a heaw belt of
silver clasps, ending in a beaded purse which
hangs to her knees. The colors are ftrong
and crude, and Zltkala-Sa's ruddy skin and
shining black eyes stand forth In vivid con
trast. THESE are the days when antl-suffragists
In Washington are making much of the
slogan "self-determination for subject peo
ples." applying it Just now to tho Senate of
the United States. They ask that the Presi
dent, as leader of his party, shall not use
the big stick on these kindly old gentlemen
In the north wing of the Capitol to Induce
them to pass the suffrage amendment, even
though It be nn Administration measure.
On the other hand. Alice Paul, Jeadcr or
the militant suffragists nnd chairman of tho
National Woman's party, does not attempt to
conceal her disappointment at the further
postponement of the vote The bill came up
for consideration In the Senate at the end
of last month, and the suffragists refuse
to pair with Senator Ollle James. Ill In a
Baltimore hospital, saying that they rouln
not afford to throw away a vote In conse

by the opposition.

J. raid Mis Paul, seated In her purple
and gold office at the headquarters of the
Woman's party. "Senator James has been
III for months, and probably will be for n.
long time to come. Because he is unable to
perform his official duties Is no reason why
he should have the right to cripple another
man. The nation pays each Senator $7500
n year. If Mr James is incapacitated from
earning his salary he should not seek to
deprive the nation of the services of still
another legislator. This seems tn be a trick
raised by the antls to Justify them In fili
bustering against the amendment Senator
Reed threatened to hold up Indefinitely all
pending war appropriations, amounting to
