Charlie Munn are with them, you know,
and they are giving n dinner tomorrow
night. Then Lawrence Bcggs linn nsked
two or three couples down to spopd the
Labor Day week-end with him nt his
cottage in Vcntnor. He has Ms chil
dren down there for the summer, you
know. Joe Beggs, his brother, and
Bessie, you remember she was Bessie
Kerbaugh, and they live in Pittsburgh
now, arc going down there nnd so nrc
Sumner Rulon-Millcr and his wife and
the Richard O. Wood, Jrs.
I MUST say I was nmused yesterday
to read in several New York papers
of the engagement of Rettino Stokes
Edwards and Captain Mercer, of Eng
land. And they say Philadelphia is
slow. Why bless your hearts, we knew
about that Saturday n week ngo nud
had It in the paper then. Hut, of course,
we are so "slow" in Philadelphia New
York, never dreamed it was two weeks
behind.
Bettlnc Stokes Edwards is the daugh
ter of Bob Edwarda who married Miss
Bcttine Stokes, of this city. He is a
brother of Mrs. Frank Patterson and
of Mrs. James Hirst.
He and his wife were divorced n num
ber of years ago and she became Sirs.
Flta-Hugh Pcrln nnd has lived in New
York most of the time Ince then. The
children have been with their mother,
and Bcttine is the older daughter. Cap
tain Cecil William Mercer, I think I
told you at the time of the announce
ment, is an Englishman, son of Mr.
John Cecil Mercer, of St. John's Wood,
London. He was in the army nnd saw
service In Salonica and Egypt. They
nre to be married very soon I under
stand, but no date has been set ns yet.
MUS. ARCHIBALD THOMSON has
a house party at her place in Nar
ragansett for this week. It consists of
members of the school set and they have
been having a wonderful time going to
the Newport Horse Show and the vari
ous doings nt those gay resorts. Eleanor
Purvianee, known to her friends as Pur
vie, is one of the girls from Philadel
phia in the party, and Loulle Thomson,
Mrs. Thomson's niece, is another, and
the little Whitwcll girl from New York.
Eleanor Turviancc is the daughter of
Mrs. Perc Wllmer, of Germantown, and
a first cousin of the Brockle girls, I
should say Agnes Mason and Elizabeth
Brockie, should I not? Elizabeth Mor
gan is another cousin in that large and
attractive Morgan family.
MOLLY and Brewster Koons have
gone down to Cape Mny to spend
the week-end with Brewster's fnther
and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Koons.
They have taken a house of their own
out in Strafford, did you know that?
After they were married you remember
they lived in Home, Go., and then
Brewster went to war, and after his
return he was taken ill with pneumonia,
and so, altogether they were not nble
to settle down nt all, but have been
living at the Bailey's In Strafford, since
they returned to Philadelphia. You
know Molly Koons was Molly Baily,
n daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Bally.
They expect to move Into their own
home next month, and Brewster will
bo permanently connected in business
here. I am so glad, for it is hard
to be far away from one's own home,
rjren if It is with one's husband. The
nearly associations do cling and it's hard
Wto make new friends when one's ideas
and nreierenccs ure wen luruieu.
,As one small bride of the recent year,
who was home visiting her family, re
marked, when it was time to go back to
husband, "Oh, dear, I hate so to leave
Philadelphia," nnd then she blushed
hyly and added, "But, oh, dear, I want
to see Jack," and so it goes.

GLORIANNA CAPTURED ALIVE!
SHE'S A LITTLE BOOKWORM
Age 300, Perhaps Caught Chewing Hole in Ancient Copy of
Museum Cortone by George IL Rigby
A real live bookworm about a quar
ter of nn inch long Is now n captive in
l'hllndelphla.
Gloriannn is her nnme, nnd she was
rnught chewing a hole in an ancient,
dusty, wornyenten leather-bound copy
of the Museum Cortone, n venerable
tome In Latin on the subject of monu
ments. Her captor Is George H. Hlghy,
n bibliophile, of Locust street near
Thirteenth.
The volume was printed in 17"0, but
Glorinnnn refused to divulge her age,
though it was estimnted she must be
nt lenst .100 j ears old, perhnps.
Sir. Rigby happened to pick up tho
volume yesterday. Ho was fingering
over the .page, when there on page 152
lie spied (ilorinnna ! She was just bor
ing Into pnge 153 nnd had left a per
forated pnth of destruction through 151
pages behind her.
Glorinnnn is n golden brown grub,
not longer thnn three-eights of nn Inch,
if she's thnt. Her body is covered with
scales, which fold around her like n
series of belts. And she's got to shimmy

Sir Rigby enticed her out of the tome

There is much speculation about book
worms. Entomologists have given this
enemy of bibliophiles n variety of Latin
ical names. The bookworms themselves
date back to when the world was young.
They plagued the sacred priests as far
hack as the time 'of Joseph's pha
rnoh, it is said, by destroying their
title deeds and scrolls of science. And
the story is told how, in tho dajs of
their .power, one of them bored a single
hole ' strnight through twenty-sevcu
thick volumes.

SALOON MEN TO RALLY
Meeting Arranged for Tomorrow to
Plan Prohibition Fight
SInny Philadelphia' saloon men are
taking out licenses with tho expectation
that wartime prohibition will come to

president of tho Philadelphia Retail

tion, will be tho chief speaker at a
rally of the Philadelphia dealers tomor
row in the Parkway Building, when tho
campaign ngaintt constitutional prohi
bition will be planned.

AtJfeHTST 30, 1919
However, Glorinnnn isn't to be
blamed for the deeds nor tho lies about
her forbears. She is n kind of Last of
the Slohicnns, nnd Is more to be pitied !
thnn tcorned.
There are very few of her relatives
alive, owing to the srarrlty of edible
books. Those who know say that the
modern printers' Ink nnd the acids nnd
chemicals used in the making of paper
do not agree with the constitutions of'
bookworms'.
Wont Ilo Interviewed
Glorinnnn wouldn't tnlk much when
interviewed todny. She Is much too
wise. It wouldn't have been nny nd
vnntngc to her to talk she couldn't be
edllled. She has more than her share
of learning nlrendy.
Like most very old folks, she lives
in her own little world shut in. The
excitement nnd netlvlty of mqdern life
confuses her, nnd the 'gnlnvnntius."
ns she enllcd them, of the newer women
nppal her.
However, Glorinnnn is a rnrity nnd
her enpture is a historical event. Ages
ngo even the bookworm was unknown
in Philadelphia, nnd his or her slightest
ravages, according to an old writer,
were looked upon ns curious nnd rare.
William Blades, in his little book
called "The Enemies of Books." pub
lished In London In 18S0, joshed Amcr
ica after a fashion because It couldn't
bonst n bookworm of the variety thnt
didn't wear specs and trousers. An
American writer once naively said :
"There is now in a privntc llbrnry
of Philadelphia a book perfornted by
this insect." And Rlndcs, who had
witnessed In England the ravages of the
worm in hundreds of books, was moved
to comment :
"Oh! lucky Philadelphinns! who enn
boast of possessing the oldest llbrnry in
the stntes, but must ask leave of n

VELVET HATS, TO BE SURE,
BUT NOT BEFORE NOVEMBER 1
Milliners Start Movement to Regulate Season's Stock So as to
Avoid Women Wearing Winter Hats in August
Fashionable women won't wear velvet
bats before November 1, if they follow
the newest dictates of American style
makers, who met in New York this
week.
But Philadelphia shops already have
an attractive supply of such chapcaux,
and saleswomen declare no mere woman
can resist buying, once she sees them.
"The new hats are adorable and we
have already sold many velvet ones.V
said a local bujer, "but I think the
movement to divide the year in four
seasons and to put winter bits on sale
November 1 Is a commendable one."
So eager have the followers of fickle
Dame Fashion been to be first ln wear
ing new modes that tho last few years
have seen a chaotic condition In mil
linery. Straw bats have found their
way out in wintry winds and velvet
bonnets have been brought out in mid-

Mimmer. But fashion makers are now
banding together to establUh four dis
tinct seasons, with millinery to suit
lUl lit
T.he idea developed by Edgar V 31
Goldberg, of the Retail SliUInery Akso-'
elation of America: Milton Wolf, of
Joseph's, New York, and others, is to
enlist the co-operation of dressmakers
tailors and all allied trades and show
only seasonable fashions. Then, when
a woman wants to buy a new hot, hhe
will not have to take q winter one In
summer, because winter ones won't be
shown.
The organizers of the "fourseasons"
movement say the new plau will give
milliners work tho year round, instead
of only six rnqnths Jn the year.V No
vember 1 has been set ns the official time
for tho beginning of winter, but dates
for other seasons hare not been set.
