The Bride Buys Furniture DID yott hear about the hard luck of Mr. Onirics E. Coxc?' Ton know he ami Mrs. Coxc save it dinner dance not long ago at Malvern Farm for Kckley and his bride. It was n won derful party, I hear, about three or four hundred people there, and every body had a good time. nut Mr. Coxc fell while he was dancing and broke his leg. It wasn't an awfully bad break, I believe, but any break is bad, lu that It's very painful. And in the hot weather it must have been fierce. Imagine having to be bandaged up in bed July 4, fi and 6 of this year ! Mr. Coxe Is being taken care of at home, instead of going to the hospital. Ho is getting along as well as possible, I hear. rpHBUB are certainly many attractive .- members of the Scott family in all its branches, but one of the very sweetest Is little Anne Scott, the three- year-old daughter of Rosalind and Hutchic Scott. She has one mass of golden curls and lovely blue eyes and pink checks, and is altogether the sort of baby one sees only in hooks, or in these 'days, the movies. She has a further true Scott char acteristic, that of being always sur rounded by admirers wherever Bhc goes. The other day she was down on the beach at Cape May talking to Harry McMichael and Alfred Sergeant, who were certainly very interested in her, and the wee bird who was nearby said "it" wondered if she was entertaining them with one of her famous stories, which, tradition says, cannot be beaten. HAVE you ever been out to Paradise Farm? I went there the other day and it certainly made an impression on -me. I wondered If many knew of it. for it certainly Is one wonderful place. It's way, way out on the Main Eine. Don't ask me the name of the station because I went in a motor, but it's quite far beyond Paoll and it's real country. The houses for the mothers and babies and for the boys arc up high on the hill and down low in a little dell nestled among the trees is .the loveliest old-fashioned farmhouse," where the farmer and his family live, nnd along the stream there is a great old spriug house where they had honest-to-good-ness melons lying in the water ; and didn't we eat one then nnd there, nnd didn't I almost wish I was one of those kiddies from downtown or uptown or wherever they get them all from, and could go out there for one or two weeks and wade in the water and swim in the pool just a bit nway from the farm. I just did. I went out with several of the women who arc interested in the Country Week Association and I do not think I ever saw suci happy children. While we were there, the Paradise Special ar rived and it was pathetic to see the dif ference between the newly-arrived kid dles and those who had been there a week. The last arrivals were so pale and sickly compared with the others. Hut the joy of knowing that In less than a week those pale youngsters would be brown and jolly, too, certainly repays one for anything one might do to help along the good cause. Mrs. Boyd Weitzcl is president of tne work and she is one of the most delightful persons it has been my plcas ...... t Mant QIia lmroa those kiddies. I1IC IU Ut.i W" w, ... , and believe me, those kiddies love her. ONB of the most exciting things about his getting out of the service and getting settled so that they could get a house instead of a furnished apartment, was that they could go buy furniture together. You see, ever since they were married last year, they have been living in a ready-made home, and it's thrilling to have a home-made one at last. So they went In town the other day and looked at furniture. And the only thing they saw in the way of a dining room set was perfectly frightful, but they had to have one, and Husband insisted that It was "alright, and if you take any-more time looking around, we won't be able to go to the movies." So the set was marked "sold," and they hustled off to the movies. Hut She didn't enjoy the comedy, the big picture, the travel-log, showing water falls, mud housesand unclothed chil dren, or the news pictures of fires In glue factories, and other peace news. All she could see was her pretty little blue and white dining-room all utterly spoiled with that horrible furniture. - And so early next morning she flew downtown, went to that store and had one unpleasant little morning getting the "Sold" removed. But with the help of her fascinating manner she managed and then she traveled to an , other place, saw just exactly the right thing, found it much less expensive, bought it, and sent it home. And after this She goes shopping for furniture alone, and meets him for tea AFTEB the movles NANCY WYNNE. SOCIAL ACTIVITIES , Mr. and Mrs. Harry O.

President Wilson's Singing Diction To the Editor Eventnjj Public Ledger: Sir In today's Evening Public Ledoeh I see that you quote the clos ing paragraph of the President's latest speech. When I read th nn.o. 1. yesterday, so many of the lines seemed to "sing themselves" that I tried a parapnrase. The result, which I en close, shows that surprisingly few changes were necessary : The stage is set, the destiny disclosed, Come by no plan we mortals have conceived nut by the hand of God who led the way, We caunot backward turn, but ever on With lifted eyes and freshened souls pursue The vision which we dreamed of at our birth. , America In truth shall show the way, The light streams down upon the pith ahead And nowhere sde,"( , EVENING PUBLIC CROWD CAUGHT IN RAIN ASSAILS BOAT LINE Write Complaint Against Dol phin Steamship Co. Were Left on Burlington Island Caught in the rain on Burlington Island last Sunday.nfter having "passed up" a boat having cnrrying capacity for I'.OO persons, several hundred Philii clelphinns arc nursing u grouch, accord ing to Charles Daler and James Sehemii. of 1(i.'!0 North Bodine street, who have I written the Evening Prni.ic Lkiioer! foniplnining that the Dolphin Steamship Line did not live up to its schedule. In their letter the signers, who sny their children were nearly drenched in the rain that fell Sunday evening, de- I clare that they may sue the company. ' "We noticed that boots leave the park for Philadelplina nt ."ii.IO. 7:15 nnd !):!." p. m.." says the letter. "We de elded to take the 7;1." bont back to Philly. Wo arrived at the pier about " P. in . nt which time it was raining, and weie surprised to see the 7:1", boat pnss us gently by, stop at Bristol nnd continue on to Philadelphia, leaving about ,100 persons on the pier, with the rain coming down in torrents. ' "There is very little accommodation t for passengers in event of rain, the only convenience being n little shed on the pier which can shelter about seventy- I five persons." I The writers then say the steamship Springfield arrived about 8:0.". nbout an hour behind her scheduled time, nnd I took half the passengers, leaving' mothers without their children and men ! without their wives. I "A smnll panic then started nnd thei steamship pulled nway with passengers' on the gangplank. We, as well as about i a hundred more, were then pushed back to the shed to await the scheduled t:4Z boat: in the meantime the rain was still falling." It appears the 0 :45 boat did not show up until tl p. m., when the steamship I Trenton took the remaininir marooned I .picnickers down to Philadelphia, where they arrived at 1 a. m, Henry S. Wilson, passenger ngent for the Dolphiu Steamship Compnnv. said today that inability to handle the pic nickers rested on two things: First, the picnickers would not romp to the wharf for the early boat, which pulled away from the island about ti o'clock, lacking l.'iOO passengers of her capacity. Sec ond, the boats following were loaded close to capacity with up-river passen gers. He admitted that botii steamers ran behind time. "The boat which they say passed them was not a steamer scheduled to stop nt the island," he said. "It was due to leave Trenton nt ." p. m., but makes no stop at Burlington Island. Had they made any attempt to catch an earlier bont they would have been all right. When the rain came, of course everybody scurried for the wharf." MISS GRAY A BRIDE TODAY Marriage to Mr. Murray C.
