Hut. really, I hnvc een others, too, quite a num ber, of them. I suppose the reason T was Impressed with them yesterday Is because they were worn by two such Roocl-looUns women. One whs Mrs. Butler Ileeves and the other was .luanlta Hnrmcr Urown. Mrs. Itcpves had on a dark fur with " bldik straw hat dimmed, if t remember rorrectly. with fluffy black feathers around Ihe crrran -nnd the blue serRe suit. Mrs. Rrown's suit was a little lighter, ft wns her fur. nnd lr lint was dark blue straw, turned ui in fiont and ndorned with those thin aigrrtty luoklng feathers. Her xounK histcr, Celostine Wartler. is to be one of next car's debs, I hear. She was really in the debutante set Inst jear. but lots of those girls are going to have their formal parties this jear. for thete weic really no formal debuts at all last winter, cen after the armistice. I saw Hetty AVnicli-r,' the- jouugest hister, at dancing class the other night. She Is such n pretty little thing and she had on o white dres with low neck and short sleeves nnd n wide blue sash, with a blue ribbon on her short hair, and she looked sneet.

It is, nnd the execu tive committee is rndcnxuriiijt; to raise funds. The latest enterprise is a lumnmgc sale that it has been planned to give on Mny 1, - and 3 at 7-1 Chestnut street. The tile for the camp that is under consideration is situated under the marine encampment at Paoli, and would cost the organization nbout $700. The fund has already been started, and it is to enlarge it that the committee, under the chairmanship of Owen Mnitin, lias planned this sale. A wonderfully attractive stock of rum mage is now on hand and will be sold by the various members of the committee, in cluding Harriet Deavcr. I.essie Fov, Cecily Barnes, Miss Kntherine Hutchinson, Miss Emily Colin, Miss Gertrude Hrunswick nud Mrs. Drew liner.

Mrs. Richard Norris, who Is presi dent of the orphanage, is managing the whole thing, nnd Mrs. Norman MacLeod has charge of the decorations. The children of the orphanage will give some "exercises" I don't know whether that means drills or "speaking pieces" and such but I've been told that those children are the cutest tilings jou ever saw, and they love to per form for visitors, so I imagine it will be run to watch whatever it is. Mr. John I!. Mcllhcnny is going to give a talk, too. THKRK were six of them last Sunday afternoon and they could not make up their minds what to do. They had to have a party of some kind, and what could they do with only one car in their midst, and that a 'Ford. Not that n Ford isn't a per fectly good cur, but this particular one jou had to get out of and push to start it, and then jou hud to leap on to the running board and get in nny old way after she'd started. Weill the said six girls just naturally had to go sqmewhere, to they started to ride out toward Willow Grove, and before they were through they'd pushed that car all the way to Willow Grove, with one exception, and that was when they struck n hill near Jeukintown, and they got the old car going and it raced down hill like something possessed. And if you'll believe me, 911 Monday morning the girl who owned the car was summoned to court for speeding through Jenklntowu. NANCY WYNNE. Social Activities Mis. George W.

I had nothing to do with that nt nil. As for the painting of the pavement, that was the idea and execution of Mr. C initio. of the loan committee, nnd most nt the members of our committee never even wivv il It certainly wns an excellent idea, and had it been iiiadc- in mure permanent pniul. bud the traffic been kept off a few boms longer, it. with some retouching, would have lasted through the whole loan, but we half do things in Philadelphia and are satistied. You are satisfied apparently with the deco rations they nre a miserable failure and the fault is Philadelphia's. They nre a pitiful compromise when we had a splendid scheme, which would have been carried out in nny other city in the Fnited States. Here it was turned down lis impractical bv a professional decorator who had not the courage to carry it out line! also because, despite endless meetings and endless talks, we could not get one cent out of the business men of the city or out of City Hull itself. All the money came from the loan appropiintion. As to the dec-orations, they nre hnlf done nnd badly done. We aie ashumed of them and ashamed of Philadelphia, which has no pride only conceit. , (lo to New York to Park avenue and Philadclphians can see it great decoration grandly carried out, or to Madison Srpiare and look at the imposing nreli crowned with Paul Hartlett's Vietorj , which Philadelphia could have hud instead of the affair we have, nnd 11s for the tings, New York wns at the lust loan a marvelous ma.se of moving color. Our streets look ns though we had hung the wash out. And who paid for all this in New York? Tlje Fifth Avenue Itusiness Men's Association, the city anil the Liberty Loan, but in New York they do things here we talk things unci do nothing. There is one part of the scheme which bus come off. The Venetian masts at Broad and Chestnut streets that is, in a way only tliey are not big enough nnd are so feeble that the flags caunot be flown. lint here is u chauce to do something for the city. Let those masts be put up perma ncntlj, with a beautifully designed bnse, a tall steel pole crowned with golden eagles. From thctn should fly on holidays mighty flags and all this would be a memorial on the highway of the heioes, which runs now up and down ISroud street the Lincoln highway. Let the Philadelphiuus who cnie for their city do this the business men, the bankeis and the people who arc forever talking ait. The Art Jury. I am sure, would favor the project, and if it did not, well, let it con tine itself to cleaning pictures and closing galleries until it Is wiped away, and if Philadelphians do not carry out the commit tee's scheme of making a memorial which will beautify Philadelphia, why let them, as they have been doing for jears, sleep on in their smugness unci give up talking art nnd proving the city to be artless. ' JOSEPH PF.NNKLL. P. S. The decorations did one thing, however. They drew crowds, the crowds bought bonds and spent mouey. That was their object. Had the committee's scheme been carried out there would have been bigger crowds,, more bonds sold, more money spent. Philadelphia. April 2!). Real Estate Transaction Explained To the Kdilor of ihe Ettnluf) Public Ledger; Sir I desire to call jour attention to the fact that your evening edition of April 28. 1010, contains an Incorrect statement con cerning the proceedings in the case of Wil liam Uryant vs. Michael J. Roach, nnd wish you would be kind enough to correct it. The lease in this case was made by "M. A. Franey, agent," to Michael J. Roach. In making tho lease, Franey acted ns agent for William .Uryant, who was at that time and still Is the owner of the premises. . The judgment was confessed uudr the, terms ot Uc lease Jo 'M. A.

In older In avoid any ipicstiou f this kind, a motion was made tn strike mil 1'ianey's nnme, as he had no interest til, the proceed ings. Theie was no contention made t but the ptoeccdings could be maintained by a dead man. but only that Hiynnt, the owner, hud n light to use the dead inan's namr. if necessary , in mdci to confess the judgment to himself . I also do. in- to say Unit ibis is not n profited ing lease, ns indicated b.v your nttiele. The increase in (he lent is justifiable because of the increased taxes, cost of ie pairs, and oilier cat tying charges.
