JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Nancy Wynne Saw Tivo Smart Costumes Yesterday.
She Talks of Miss Deborah Logan's Debut in
the Winter Other Happenings
TN THESE days when most every one
Is out of town, do you sometimes
walk along the street seeking familiar
faces and feel like shrieking loud and
clear If you don't see ono? I did- yes
terday, and then, lo and behold you, I
met Mrs. Thomas Jeffries and her
daughter, Mrs. Pearson I'earcc, look
ing so smart and well that I did not
shriek, I simply smiled and felt better
all day.
Mrs. Jeffries was wearing a suit of
black trlcolette made on plain lines and
the skirt was rather long. Her hat
was close fitting, and trimmed with
black quillings. Florence wore a
dainty voile gown of dark blue and
white made with a plain skirt fulled
about the waist and tho blouse was cut
In a round neck and edged with a nar
row ruffle. Her rather lnrge hat of
black was trimmed with dark flowers.
THE Jeffries will go In n few days
to New England. They usually stay
In Jamestown, H. I., but n little bird
told me lately they were going to Nar
ragansett this year.
Mrs. .Teffries's two sisters. Mrs. John
Norris and Mrs. Dirk Norris, go to
Xaraganett every year and are al
ready in their cottages there. The
Dick Norrises have a debutante daugh
ter for next season, Mary D. Norris.
She is very good looking, fair hair and
blue eyes and a very good figure.
Good figure goes without saying,
when describing nny one with Dobsou
blood though, and both Mrs. Norrises
were Dobons, you know, Mrs. Dick
was Sarnh Dobson and Mrs. John.
Maria Dobson. Mrs. Jeffries was Miss
Mary Dobson and the other two sisters
are Mrs. Dob!.on Altcmus and Mrs.
Arthur Spencer.
Ellen Qlendenning is up in Narra
gansett now staying with Mary Norrli.
She's a debutante of next year, too. I
saw her grandfather. Mr. George W.
Carpenter, on the street the other day
and found him looking wonderfully well.
Mrs. Glendenning was Miss Bessie Car
penter, SARAH LOGAN is to have a pretty
good time next year, don't you
think? She's the first granddaughter
In the Samuel Price Wethcrill fnmily
to make her debut. The Shillard
Smiths have no children, neither have
the Yorke Stevensons, nnd Isabelle
Henderson's children are younger
again. Deborah Logan's mother was
Sarah AVetherill, tester of Mrs. Shil
lard Smith, Mrs. Yorke Stevenson and
Mrs. Sam Henderson. Sahiucl Price
AVetherill, Jr., is a brother also.
Sarah's grandfather and grand
mother. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Price
Wetherill, will give the formal recep
tions to introduce Deborah at their
beautiful house on Eighteenth street,
adjoining' Kittcnhouse square, on the
third and tenth of December. The
Stevensons are going to give her a
fancy dress party in January, and
her father and mother will give a dance
in December. The hosts of Wetherill
relatives will doubtless entertain for
her.
Indeed don't you wonder how the
debs will live through next winter.
Why it's utterly impossible to figure
on going to all the things they will be
asked to. We poor "older bunch." who
will be nsked to their teas. Will about
pass out just thinking of it. And
after two full years of nothing of the
kind, we will scarcely know how to
behnve, going to real honcst-to-good-ncss
parties.
Deborah Logan is very much like
her mother. She has light brown curl
ing hair and very bright eyes and a
most attractive manner. She will be
one of the season's belles without
doubt. But goodness, when I think ot
lie season and all those teas! I'm
speechless.
WHAT a difference a few years make.
Not only in people, but in clothes;
nnd again, not only in clothes, but in
the materials; nnd again, not only in
materials, but in the quantity of ma
terial used, viz; Fifteen years ago
Marian gave Polly, her sister-in-luw,
a very pretty piece of organdie to make
a frock. It was in the days of ruffles
and full skirts and the pattern was
very pretty, but as it was toward the
end rof the season, Molly put it away
'till next ear. Well, next year she
forgot she had it and so it went on.
'till about three weeks ago. Polly be
gan going over the small trunk in
which she had put "things that could
be used some day," and she came
ncross the pretty organdis, and or
gandie's all the rage now.
Suddenly she called her sister.
"Molly, come here and measme this
organdie; jou know it feels quite thick.
It there were ten jards, it would make
two dresses." Molly came armed with
a yard -stick and there were ten yards
and Molly and Polly each took five
yards and made the organdie into two
smart frocks for this summer.

SAYS BEST PASTORS
COME FROM ABROAD!
Comment of Presbyterian
Church Organ on Call to
English Minister
American ministers are becoming ad
ministrators rather than ptenchers.
That's uhv n flmrnl, i,t. .1, .i.n'i
need a pastor who must be fitted t take
care of Its administrative oues.lous and
I its sodnl nrnhl..,,. -. ... ...- ....,..!
Isles for Its preacher.
This approxlmotecs the comment
made b tlu I'lcsb.Merian, a weekl
denominational paper of this city, upon
the action of the Fifth Presbjterian
Churth. f xPW yorl( ,.jt -vvliioli hav
extended a formal call to the Itev. Dr.
John Keluian, of St. George's Fniteil
Fire Church. Edinburgh. Scotland, to
bcccunc its pastor.
The editorial in the Presbjterian
reads ;
"It is important to note that, after
heai nig manj men in this countrj . this
lending church could nnd no one suit
able for this Important pulpit. For the
second time since Dr. John Halls death

niiii-n menus no sjsiennilc I none it.
nnd by the extreme emphasis given to
i environment rather thnn conviction mid
the meilionicnl social service which fol
lows it. Tlieso matters nie occupy lug
such tin emphatic place thnt often
pleaching is crowded out. and the
American pastor is suffering from
wrong development. The iPMilt is that
when a church, which is nble to tnke
care of its administrative ciucstioiis
land its social problems bj its laitj. do
! siies a strong pieaiher, it must go to
the old country to get him It is time.
and we think before long the American
'church will realize it. that theie should
J be a let -up upon the mere common -
place secularism mid a return to a more
i devout and thorough studv of the word
j of God nnd its application to the tem
poral aud eternal nerds of man.
