TOT GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Nancy Wynne Talks About Reception for Cardinal
Merrier Chats of DoingS on Sundays at Mcrion
Cricket Club Interesting Debutante Tea
VKTELli, it was wonderful yesterday to
' see the people on the streets to greet
the venerable man who in Ills defiance
of the German kaiser and army won
tho admiration of tho whole world 1
Mingled with the admiration felt by the
spectators along the way was a sense
of deep reverence for the man whose
spirituality had been so great that he
had feared no kingdom that had been
instituted by man.
At tho meeting in the Belgian head
quarters yesterday afternoon that rev
erence was almost akin to awe when
ho first entered the room, but his .sim
plicity and kindliness of manner soon
banished any such feelings, and bis
graciousnesa when he thanked the Bel
gian committee of the Emergency Aid
for the solendid work done during tbo
war and since that time made every one
-feel at home. Those on tho Belgian
committee, tho executives o the Emer
gency Aid and the contributors to Bel
glum were tho only ones present. Mrs.
Bayard Henry, chairman of the com
mittee, presided at tho meeting.
Some of those at tho Belgian Belief
affair, which by tho way was an Offi
cial Visit to the headquarters, not a
reception, wero Mrs. Henry Brlnton
Cose, Mrs. J. Willis Martin, Mr. and
Mrs. J. Percy Keating, Mrs. Russell
Thayer. Miss Mary Dixon Thayer. Mis
Meta Hutchinson, Mrs. uusscii unanr,
Mrs. Chnrles Stewart Wurts. Mrs.
James Starr, Mrs. Henry Middleton
Fisher, Mrs. James Drinker, Miss Kate
Robertson, Miss Gertrude Hcckscher,
Mrs. George Wharton Pepper, Mrs.
Barclay Warburton. Mr. and Mrs.
Norman MacLeod, Miss Milllccnt Dana,
Mrs. Brinton Coxe, Mrs. William J.
Clothier, Miss Mary Rivlmis, Miss
Edith C. F. JUvlnus, Mrs. George H.
Lorimcr, Mrs. Heed Morgan, Miss
Mabel Bflce, MIsb Charlotte Bharpless,
Mrs. Isaac Roberts, Mrs. Stanley G,
Flogg, Jr., Miss Florence Bell, Mrs.
Robert W. Lesley, Mrs. Richard Ber
ridge, and I can't begin to tell you all.
THE entertainments at the Mcrion
Cricket Club for convalescent sol
diers and marines nre going to keep
right on going, through October, I
heard today. You snow there was
tome talk" of stopping" them after to
morrowthey're always given on Sun
dayfor lack of funds. But some
"kind friend" came to the rescue, and
the entertainments will go on. Emily
Phlller and Clarissa Chase have charge
of the affair each week, and there's
always some one elso to help them.
Mrs. Robert Griffiths has been doing it
lately. She has been living at Haver
ford Court.
' Tho men arc crazy about it. They
como out on the train from the hospi
tals in town, and arc seut back in
motortrucks which nrc lent for the oc
casion. They are entertained with music
and vaudeville, and everybody in the
neighborhood who. has a garden (and
that means almost everybody out there)
sends flowers over to the club for them.
And they love the flowers. They carry
,, ,n rnrofnltv for fear they'll drop
every one little bud, and they take them
back to tho tellows wno nre iu mc "--pitals
not well enough to come out
with them. There nre usually about a
hundred men at these parties, and they
have been coming every Sunday now
for nine weeks.
Miss Chase, you know, was much nit
terested in tho Union League Annex fo?
Soldiers and Sailors, here in town,
while it was kept up, and once a month
last year she used to take a crowd
of girls down to the navy yard to give
a dance for the "gobs" and marines
down there.
I HEAR that Eleanor Robb's tea,
which is. on November 28, will be
held at the home of her grandparents,
Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Hastings, 1726
Spruce street. The tea, as originally
planned, was to have been held at the
Acorn Club, but I believe Eleanor was
most anxious to have it at her grand
mother's house because her mother
made her debut there, and was also
married there. Mrs. Robb, who is
Mrs. Henry Burnett Robb, was Miss
Mabel Hastings.
I think it's such a nice idea, and it s
one that can't be carried out by a great
I many of the debutantes now, for there
have been no many changes of resi
dence in the last ten years that girls
are spt to find it pretty difficult even
r the wggff"

tend the University this year.
One reason attributed to the lack of
women at the University 1s the extreme
scarcity of rooming and boarding places.
