itfancy Wynne Tells What
Newport Y. M. C. A.
of Interest
WELL, I told jou tlint If I heard any
thing more nboiit the election nt the
Casino jn Newport I'd let you know
So here it is. The election was held
on Monday, and the lour womc,n who
were elected governors were Mrs.
fr Nathaniel Thayer, of lloston'; Mies Huth
( Twomblcy, of Ncvv York : Mrs. Vincent
Astor and Mrs. Hnrgcr Wnllach. And
just for that, or at least on top of it,
Mrs. Wnllach entertained nt tea yes
terday nftcrnoon nt the Casino in honor
of Norris Williams nml his wife, and
j several of the tennis plajcrs who have
.recently come hack -from service with
J the army or nnvy. Mr. and Mrs. Itob-
ert Kelso Cassatt gave n dinner at their
place on Monday evening.
Marguerite Cnperton is up there now,
to the delight of evcrjbody. You know
Lthc Cnpertons nre not stajing in Ncvv-
F port this ynrfor the first time In per
fect ages, nnd evcrjbody has missed
Marguerite so. Hut (-he's visiting Mrs.
Oibson Fnhnestock, 1 believe, and ap
peared at tennis the other dny wearing
n most becoming light blue chiffon
dress, nnd everybody fell on her neck,
nnd welcomed her with much glee. She
( is the daughter of Admiral and Mrs.
.William U. Capcrton, and lives in
Washington in the winter.
I
HEAR that Esther Lloyd is nmong
the 700 Y. M. C. A. workers who
arrived Inst Thursday from ltrcst on
the HavcrforiK She is the daughter of
the late Malcolm Lloyd and lives nt
"Llanyan, Devon. She went overseas
about six months ngo, and worked in
the same ennteen tlint Netty Elliot was
in at Brest. She sas that It was in
tensely interesting nnd plenty of work,
in spite of the fact thnt so ninny of
the men were leaving nil the time, i
believe she was working among the per
manent engineers, who arc doing con
struction there. She nnd Betty were
the only Phllndclphlans nt that
particular place, so they must have had
quite a fellow feeling for each other. .
'pHE finals of the men's doubles were
1 plnycd on Sunday nftcrnoon nt Cnpe
May at the Golf Club, in spite of the
fact thnt it was tennis. And great was
the interest and excitement thereof.
Henry ration and Eddie Cnssard won
over Whitney Wright nnd his partner,
nnd the score wns 4-0, C-4, 0-3. You
see, I know nil about it. And, what's
more I know what some of the people
wore and I'll tell you about one or two
of them.
Brownie Wnrburton was there, you
know, visiting the Heck Wethcrills
(they gave a dinner for her before the
dance nt the. Bed Mill on Saturday),
and Bhe had on nn awfully good-looking
dress of light blue hnndkerchief linen,
with the neck, pntch pockets nnd vest
trimmed, or -rather outlined, in em
broidery of a darker shade of blue wool.
It was stunning. And then she wore
with it a wide leghorn hat faced with
French blue chiffon and trimmed with a
wreath of blue grapes.
Edith Wilson wore n most attractive
dress of pink tricolette and n pink1 or
gandie lint adorned with pert little or
gandie rosettes and a light blue-ribbon
bow.
SHE was traveling alone for the first
time in her life, slightly nervous,
but otherwise nil right. She had never
been in a diner before, but you never
would have supposed it from the so
phisticated way in which she entered,
took her place atthc table, nnd looked
nonchalantly about her. ' But somehow,
the waiter, who was one of those shiny,
black ones who are at once friends
and obsequious, found out that she was
going to his own state in the South nnd,
more than that, to his county. And, to
her utter surprise, she was overwhelmed
with "repeats" of everything she
ordered.
And when she expressed said surprise
'Tie rolled one eye nt her, while the other
gazed meditatively out the window, nnd
he remarked, with feeling, "Because,
lady, you is goin' to S county, and
I'se bo'n and bred thare!"

Just Read This, Judge Pattersonl
To the Krlltor Ktcntno Pnbttc LiAaer'
Sir: One word to inj fellow eltizens
of one who is "A man every inch of
him." One who stands head nnd
shoulders inr above everj man who I
hns been mentioned for the olhee of
Mayor of our nim1i-loed it. One
whom I hnve known and chisel) fol
lowed during the dujs he was with us
In our Juetiile Court, ns assistant dis
trict nttorne) , anil whom I first no
ticed and became attrmteil to by his
cr) pleasing pcrsounlitj. One who
we could see at a glance hail a henit
full of love for the chilelieii; one oNo
whom I hne kept in tomli with and
wns glnd to see his inpid iidwince to
Judge of our courts.
I lefer to the linn. Jnlin M. Patter
son, president of the Dickens Club,
which, if nothing else, should diuw nil
men and nil women In him, who love
i like Charles Dickens, the child, prim i -i
pally the neglected ones. tliot needing a
big hi other's care.
I I have been told if 1 wish John M.
Patterson to leave his sent of high
l honor for that tenihlv hind one, thnt
of the Major of the i it) of Philadelphia,
,1 mn not Mr. Pattei-mi's friend. While
I in a sense nppici late this, jet 1 am
i sure if our itbens i all upon him it will
be his duty to make the snerilne and
ohej the call.
A candidate miiIi ns the Hon. John
M Patterson would have the votes of
iwerj one who lowd the boj and wished
him to glow up Into good Christian it I -7cnhii.
The Mite of every one who
wns n "hold soldier ho " in the late
struggle, for the) would onlj lie Noting I
for n fellow fomrade who also took up J
arms at our coiintn 's call. The vote

Ilrooke Barrett, secretary, and Clayton
II. Alderfer, treasurer.
The chair was empowered to appoint
an executive committee, which will be
representative of the different secret,
social, patriotic, municipal and other
organizations. This committee will ar
range u program which, with n possible
date, will be referred to another public
meeting to be held Tuesday, August 10.
The Ilev. Knrl Block, lector of All
Saints' Protestant Episcopal Church,
representing the welfare league, sug
gested that, instead of the soldiers be
ing asked to march, they be provided
with scuts in n grandstand in n court
of honor and review the populace as it,
parades past.
Elinor E. Bciilemnn, chairman of the,
police committee, nnounccd thnt he has
instructed the police to make arrests

GLOUCESTER NEEDS SCHOOL
Mayor Calls Board of Estimate to
Consider Appropriation
Major Aniurson, of Gloucester City,
has inl'ed a special meeting of the board
of school estimates to be held tomorrow
night for the purpose of considering an
'nppropiintion for a new school building
to take care t.f the growing population
of the city.
The shipyards nnd other plants are
bringing new families into the city, and
'when the schools reopen next month th,
school board looks for n large enroll-
inent of new pupils. In order to ne-
commodate thfin in the lower grades
, . , .... . .
more rooms anil teachers will be needed.
The high school departments have room, j4
feu mine pupils. ,1
The school hoard wants nn nppro- Afi
printinn to construct a new twenty- 1
room school biiildinc on the site, of thn '
nrnsent Cnnilierlniul nnd TlloVvvnv eti-natu a
M.ools. Because cf the city's condition
jnd the indebtedness now being about . i
SROO.OOO. it is not likely that such a ' '
lane school will be built at this time. . .
It may be decided to construct a smaller !
school and to obtain temporary quarters ( "av;
until a new building is ready.
