Nancy Wynne Tells Some Interesting Things in the Social
World Motor Messengers to Be Revived Horse
Show Going Strong
l T HEARD the most splcudld accounts o
f x Anne Ashton yesterday. She graduated
from Miss Shipley's ?n Wednesday, and
i, though she had been ill and therefore tin-
I able to take the final examinations, It was
decided that .she should be rIVcii ncr
V diploma, as her high nveragc through the
.i .1 ,. mihIi n (Intdntl.
&; cmirc jcai nnnnuiL-u ouvh u.. ......
This was especially line, as sue nns m-cu
doing very gootl worK wan ner viuiju, i"-i
and has been taking in quite n few ot the
Lvln1 rlnlntro na null. She la to CO back to
AiiAi . vnof 4n nnitnln 1 ln In hcvcrnl
I branches, for she Is too young to make her
debut and her parents, Dr. and Mrs. Tfiomas
p G. Ashton, have wisely decided on tins
fc course. Anne te exceedingly pretty, with
. , .,?.., fi.i- L.t iAmn Kiita prpiq nml
f long lashes. She is tall and slender and her
complexion Is one that any color can uc wum
with. I saw her at dancing class one night
fWin a vivid green taffeta frock with a
I i.t). -n.i nMini. un nlmut hr-r neck nnu no
h white between the green and her face, and
she looked so pretty. lt'B a glti 10 uc
coloring like that!
IT TOLD you that the E. A. A.'s arc to be
i A mustered out on 'Wednesday, didn't 1?
Well, now I hear that the National ienuu
Aides are to be mustered out on Sunday
and the Motor Messengers of the Ited Crow
on June 2. There are to be parties and
speechifying on both occasions.
Hut I havo further news in regard to the
Ited Cross Motor Corps. What do you
think they arc going to do? Muster out on
-MK.1.. ...! nffnt n nmmlck nf tlnYS haC
I'' elapsed they arc going to start up their
loved old organization, "Tue aioior ,u
sengers," and the members will be able to
rc-enllst in the 'old service.
Thpv will wrnr uniforms as before, but
V thg n rrntn will no loncer nnpear on
their caps and buttons. They will he once
again an independent organization. They
will not go back to hard work till the bummer
is over, then a meeting will be called and
the Motor Messengers will be a useful or
ganization of the future. As these organiza
tions muster out for war work, one caunot
help but praise most highly the work they
did. The Motor Messengers were simply
marvelous in their untiring work on their
appointed days, and did not a little to ex
pedite many undertakings in connection with
the government's work. Jloth the Kmcr
gency Aid and the National League found
their pities invaluable when it came to hard'
work, though as I have said before, every
one is glad that the time has come to go
back to normal things ns fur ns possible.
w
Y THE WAY, talking about going back
to normal things, have ou heard as
much as I have about unlinpplucss among
some of the young couples who married in
haste before the men left for war? Jt is a
.problem, but it seems to mc nn awful pity
that some of the older and wiser people
should not stop talking about it.
Everywhere one goes there's gossip about
this one nnd that one, and if talkers would
only allow the pool' young people a few
months to get used to changed conditions, if
those most concerned will only make up their
minds that it's for better or worse and stop
making the worse into a mountain, when, iu
reality, it's only a tiny molehill in the be
ginning, things "will straighten out.
It's the gossips in this world who mnkc
most of the trouble and start most of said
trouble. Only the other dny I was told:
x "Isn't it awful? You know B . Ite-
member she was married to So-and-So just
j few days before he sailed for France
and had only known him a month. Well, I
saw them at a party the other night and
he had had too much wine. Now, isn't
that awful?" When I got through with
that scandalmonger I think she had changed
her mind a hit, or at least had decided to
bridle her tongue a little.
Because a young mau who has gone
through "hades" over there, and has gone
without any wine for the greater part of
the time he was in the army, makes a mis
take and takes a glass of wine, which ordi
narily would not have affected him at all,
,and does feel it and unfortunately shows that
v'he feels it, the gossips are there to go out
and talk about it and he, who is really a
studious, sensible fine fellow, goes down in
their books as a drunkard.
Just give them a little time, gossips, won't
you, and let them have a chance, and per
haps wc won't hear of all these threatened
divorces and uubapplnesses, because two peo
ple who have been living very opposite
lives require a little time to get adjusted
to thinking for two instead of one.
THE Horse Show yesterday was just as
exciting as the first day. Just crowds of
people nd ever, so much gaycty nnd happi
ness all round. I should think the women
' in the rummage sale would be about dead
and the cafeteria, too ! Just going hard from
a. m. to p. m. And, really, with the dln-'
,;ners and dancing it s g. m. before many of
them get home.
It's perfect- to hear the remarks: One
perfectly sweet, dainty little girl in tup
pink and white costume of an aide ap
proached a dignified gentleman yesterday
and remarked: "Oh, how do you do, Mr.
; don't you want a chance on a fljg?"
To say that her vis-a-vis was surprised
and pained would hardly express it. He
lived in an upartment without even a win
dow box, so where on earth could he put
a pig, should he be so wild as, to chance it.
.However, he overcame his surprise and took
a chance instead on the diamond and gold
wrist watch, whicirwa's a beauty.
Altogether the atmosphere out there Is'
so different from that of the last Horse
Shows when the war was still on that it's
like going info a. different world.

Professor Snyder
Old Sol just won't be gnssed, and there's

When a cloud weighted with about ."tO.OOO
miles of calcium vapor bus the temerity to
float within lL.'.'i.OOO miles or so nf the face
of the sun, His Solar Majesty lets loose it
warm ray, and puiif. German mustard gas
is gigantic iu comparison to that venturesome
cloud.
Yerke's Observatory, out nt the Univer
sity of Chicago, announces aiming other va
pors diseernable in the Windy City, the pres
ence of (he cloud. Not such a wonderful
discovery, declare astronomers here.
"It is an immense prominence on the
sun." says Prof. Mouroe B. Snyder, of Cen
tral High School, "and it is what might be
termed an unusual, usual thing. The work
of the Philadelphia Observatory shows it to
he one of calcium vapor. It owes its origin
to the explosion of milium in the sun. It is
visible only iu speetro-heliogriiphic work. As
to its effect on the earth, all solnr phenomena
have some hearing, nnd this is n mutter
which we nre now studying. Such thinks
are not unusual astronomically."
