r Nancy Wynne Talks of the
tain Hamilton Chcston Returns to America Easter
Dance to Be Social Affair
WELL;. I oupposo tho Groome -wedding
party ccnttngency arrived safo and
Hound In Augusta yesterday afternoon and
tho usticrs' dinner took placo nil right,
otherwise we probably would havo heard
that they had not arrived. Jack's two sis
ters, Martha and Agnes, went down with
their mother, Mrs. John C. Groome.
Martha, you remember, married Leland
Thompson, and Leland, by tho way, is to,
bo ono of. Jack's ushers. Agnes, his ouier
Istor, who wag named for her mother,
married Dal Dixon.
It Is too bad that Colonel Groome and
Captain Dixon could not bo hero for tho
wedding. Tho bride is Gladys, Teaguc, and
Jack met her down In Augusta when he
was there with tho Twenty-eighth Division
last year. Ho was transferred to tho M. P.
over in France, you know, and returned
to this country a lieutenant about Christ
mas time.
Ho went down to Augusta shortly after
' that, and his engagement to Gladys was
announced In January. The wedding will
tako place tomorrow at tho Church of the
Good Shepherd, down there, at noon.
Gladys Is going to havo her sister as maid
of honor and one of Jack's small nieces as
a flower girl.
There are not to he any bridesmaids, but
certainly tho number of ushers makes up
for any lack of bridesmaids, for there are
to be twelve ushers and a .best man. I
asked Ja'ck what Gladys wag going to
wear, and lie said: "Oh, white something or
other that Is soft and shiny. You know
what they all wear. Satin, Isn't It?" I
suppose the Harry Dlsstonq will go from
their ' southern plantation to Augusta to
attend the wedding. Mrs. DIsston, you
know, was Edith Roberts, a sister or Mrs.
Groome.
poOR. Effingham Perot 2d! He was io
- havo been married on Easter Monday,
you know, to Helen Palst, of Norris
town, but he's been taken very ill;
in fact, was taken 111 at his fiancee's home,
and tho doctors say he will not bo suffi
ciently recovered even by Easter to havo
tho ceremony. In fact, they will not allow
him to be moved from the Palst home.
They havo been engaged for two years,
and It was announced In 1917, but they
did not marry sooner on account of their
youth. Even now Effingham Is but twenty
one. The Invitations were out and have
had to be recalled until come indefinite
date, and in the meantime ho Is being
cared for In the Palst home. Let us hope
he will very soon be well.
WE MAY be suro that Cornelia Leidy
Cheston Is a happy person these days.
You remember she was married to Hammy
Cheston Just a few days beforohe had to
sail for France, and It's been the greater
part of two years since their wedding.
Well, Captain Cheston came homo yes
terday on tho Leviathan. He is the eon
of Mr. and Mrs. James Cheston and a
first cousin of Captain Hadcllffe Cheston,
Jr., whose attractivo young wife, Sydney
Ellis, died just a ftjw weeks ago. Did you
know that Mrs. Cheston'rf .sister Helen
Ellis Payne's baby dlod since Mrs. Ches
ton? Sorrows never seem to come singly,
do they? . '
I am glad that this return has no sor
row connected with It.
EVIDENTLY the women on the board ot
tho Heed Street Neighborhood House
mean to make the dance on Easter Thurs
day a big social i affair. Certainly they
have about everybody who is anybody
(socially speaking) interested In the affair.
It's a subscription dance, and it's to be
held at the Rltz-Carlton. And it's to raise
a fund for a clubhouse for men and boys
ln.tho neighborhood of Reed street, where
there Is a neighborhood house.

CLUB MEMBERS BUYING
AGAINST PROHIBITION
Golfers in Doubt Whether They
Will Be Allowed Locker
'Wet" Stocks
"To be or not to be?"
The question or whether members or the
arlous country clubs will bo allowed to
maintain stores of liquor in their lockers
after the abolition of the well-known "nine
teenth hole"' on July 1, when wartime pro
hibition goes Into effect, is agitating thoe
privileged to lsit the nearby links and
knock the elusive golr ball around the land
scape, The problem Is exceedingly Important, and
not one steward In the country clubs will
commit himself on the action considered at
his particular club. The rensen Is plain.
Vliat regular golfer will continue to pay
dues at uu organization where there is no
possible chance for Irrigation when other
local clubs nllow the storage of "2i per cent
beer" and other stimulants?
The question of the sobriety of the In
dividual golfer is not considered. The one or
privilege is concerned, and all who don freak
nttire to hit a shinny ball with a club mado
to order desire all privileges possible to ob
tain, In that lespect not dlffeilng from other
mortals.
It Can't He Done
What golfer wants to finish a particularly
hotly contested round nnd talk it oer again
over a glass or lemonade or a thimbleful of
arnica when those at the adjoining club
freely Indulge in regular before-the-war bev
erages and the brand of yarns that go with
them?
Club membeis nre said to be buying freely
ot favorite beverages to store In the lockers
should the clubs extend that privilege. Bills
for these stores resemble bids for construc
tion work on battleships, but the members
are purchasing cheerfully In tho hbpe of be
ing allowed to camp around the lockers and
Imbibe ns they discuss some particularly
nasA "lie" overcome, or u bit of brainy
"work" that won a hole for them.
New 'York clubs have ahendy decided the
question. Stewards there say that the tol
eration of liquors In the lockers would be
u violation ot the spirit or the law and
that It will not be allowed.
Among tho stewards who retused to com
mit themselves today a're those at tha Uer
mautoivn Cricket Club, Philadelphia. Pricket
Clnb, Stcnton Country Club and the Torres
dale Colt Club.

FRIDAY, " APEIE
GIRLS' TRADE SCHOOL
FINDS PUPILS EAGER
Even Boys Show Interest in Talks
Given Daily to Sixth, Seventh
and Eighth Grades
"Sav, can bos go to that school?' aked
a boy who waited to hear one of the talks
at the Girls' Trado School, Pine street abovo
Eleventh, ghn by Miss Muriel Hi own each
day to pupils ot the sixth, seventh and
eighth grades ot the city.
'I know now It Isn t money that makes
me rich," said a little girl after sho learned
the actual money advantage of lialnlng for
a trade.
The purpose of the Girls' Trade School,
which Is under Hie Board or llducatlon. Is
to give definite tmlnlng for a definlto trade,
to show the worker how she Is headed, what
she Is to expect In the tiade sho enters and
what she mav demand The talks nre being
given throughout the city tmlnrge numbers
of girls and boys Jf they caro to listen
who are contemplating lenvlng school for
work. So interested have the girls been that
Miss Brown Is kept busy answering the eager
and Intelligent qucrtlons that the girls ak
her concerning horns, costs, materials and
the wages that ma) be expected by a trained
worker.
"There aie more opportunities for trained
workers In Philadelphia than there nre ap
plicants," sajs Mrs. Nannie Belle Judy, prin
cipal of the school. ' In millinery alone, this
city could take care ot tlfty new trained
workers a vear. The aim of the Trade School
Is to teach as many trades ns the city has
employment fot , and. as n matter of fact,
the war has shown that there are few trades
a woman cannot enter
"Tho eniplojeis themselves nre much Inter
ested In the Tiade School. We have beerl
importuned by any number of trades to In
stltuto training courses. Some of the em
ployers have even offered to Install the neces
sary machinery for teaching their particular
trade, provided we do the teaching, and
they will take all the trained workers we
graduate."
"Dressmaking, power sewing machine op
erating nnd millinery Are now being taught,
Including design and academic training In In
dustrial history, textiles, civics and business
conduct. As demands arise, tho school will
enlarge Its scope of trades, anil may Institute
a two years' course which will take up the
more ndvanced work In the trades and grad
uate trained experts.
"Tho work is thoroughly practical and
placement is guaranteed at tho end of the
year, with wages considerably In advance of
those given to the beginner. In dressmaking,
tho Trade School girls stnrt with from three
to five dollnrs a week more than the ordinary
beginner receives."
Itecently the girls at the school, who num
ber nbout one hundred, have instituted self
government to take care of student questions
and the problems affecting tho relations be
tween the girls and the faculty. A room on
the third floor of the school is being fitted
up as a club room.
Tho Trade School Is looking for people
who want to give real tributes to soldiers by
establishing scholarships to enable girls with
talent to spend a vear at the school. An
other need for endowment is carfare for
those girls who live at remote distances from
the school.
When the pupils enter the school thev are
first taught the simplest processes and fin
ally work up to the standard of perfection
which is demanded by tho trade. Virtually
all thut Is made in advanced departments
Is order work. Some garments are made for
stock and the stock Is sold at regular trade
' prices.
"There Is some prejudice against machine
operating," t.as Mrs. Judy "The girls, for
the most part, want to keep awa from fac
tories. Investigations In New York, however,
have shown that factories are much better
working places than private dressmaking es
tablishments. The factories are usually abovo
ground, well ventilated and have good light
ing, while many of tho private dressmaking
rooms are In cellars where It Is dark and
conditions, In general, are unwholesome."
' Tho Trade School has had twenty-two
graduates who have been placed In positions.
Those In charge of the Trade School are
Mrs. Judy; Miss Brown, In charge or educa
tional guidance and placements : Mrs. Caro
line Muck, advanced dressmaking. Miss
Mary Foley and Mrs. Kllzabeth Gallagher, In
charge or beginners ; Mrs. Kmma Welch and
Miss Sarah Ford, Instructors in machine
operating; Mrs. Ellen Delaplalne, academic
and o!11l' work, nnd Miss Gwendoljn Harri
son, Instructor In art and design

NEEDED IN SCHOOLS
Few Children Profit From Muss
Instruction and Quit Classes
Too Early
Most vi hoed children me too ImllvldualMIn
to profit greatly from mnss Instruction and
havo not been made to appreclato tho value
of education. 1'or 'these leasons many of
thorn leave school hcin ns soon as they get
through the sivlh grade.
This l the lonplusion drawn by the Whlte
Wllllanm Foundation for Olrls, In Its 110th
niinunl report, from tho fact that In one year
tho Hoard of Education Issued 7688 employ
ment certificates to CETS children in Phll
ndelphU pulille pchoolp
llcoiiomlc leasons nlso are often lespon
slble for children quitting school too early,
and for then thn foundation is endeavoring
to provide srholnKhlpo
Five chlldien had seven certificates ench,
showing thin they had ehitnged their work
that number of times during the first jear
of emplojinent. h'lxtcen changed their posi
tions sit tllllt"
Ono hoy hold", n record of seven certificates
In six month nnd no progress legltered
Another lind seven Jobs In nineteen wppIih
Fifty-five per cent of the boyi and girls
appljlng for (iiiplovment papers had oom
ph ted milv thn sixth grade In school, the
minimum lenulieinent. Many quit school on
their fouitpculh birthday und onp-thlrd of the
totul number left before the vvein fourteen
jpnis nnd two months old
These statistics, are for the year 1916. the
first venr of operation of the piesent child
labor law, and the jear before the war, when
conditions w'eie nearly normal, and vvai
wages for uiixkillrd work did not add another
attraction to leaving school
M hill l'oundHtlon In Ilninir
Tlie Whilp-Wllllams Foundation, formerly
tlie Magdalen Society offered tho help or Its
organization to tho Bureau or Compulsory
Lducatlou In order to solvo the problems ot
employment and to guide the children Into
positions wlih a future.
it directed tho work of Investigating the
home und school conditions of some o the
20,000 girls of fourteen nnd nTteeri venrs of
age attending tlie Philadelphia public
schools, many or whom hip anxious to quit
school ns soon as they completo the sixth
grnde
Because most of the children who leave
school at the end or the sixth grade aio fitted
for piactlcally no occupation, tho foundation
is anxious to keep the children In school 'until
they aro able to undertake work which will
lend to advancement. Tlie records show that
of the 1593 who went into stores to work,
D9." became messengers
The foundation has found that It Is neces
sary to reach the pupils below the sixth
grade, and this jeni It has extended Its work
to the fifth grade.
