JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Nancy Wynne Chats of the Things People Wear She
Hears That the Herbert Lloyds Arc Back From
Europe Other Bits of Gossip
IT DOES please me so to see that
people nrc going back to wearing
lovely fluffy things those days. Don't
you like, It, too? And the lntestjdoa
which had been carried out through
the summer and enrly fall, that of wear
ing a scarf of tulle to match your frock,
is one of the most becoming fashions
ever started. I saw Miss Juliana
Wood on Ilroad street the other day
wearing a dark blue crepe dc chine
gown and small hat "with a blue tulle
scarft
, Gertrude Heckschcr, at the cardinal's
official visit to the Belgian relict on
Friday, had n dark blue tulle scarf
around her neck, and it certainly was
becoming to her. I do think she Is so
good looking. Mrs. Ilussell Dunne,
who has Just returned from the West,
wore a black scarf,, too.
SPEAKING of Mrs. Duanc, she aud
her huvband arc out at Idlcwild
'until their house in town is ready fqr
them. There ore quite a number of
Phlladclphians still out there. Mrs.
Henry Itowland and John rc staying
thero before moving into town, and so
U Mr. Sussex Davis, of the Lunch Club
fame. Mr. Davis, by the way, is a
noted lt. Most of his friends love to
tell of his retort to a New York woman,
who asked him if he ever came to town.
"Occasionally I leave the city, madam,
and go to town."
The Ned Itobins, who were at Idlc
wild. havr moved into their attractive
house, on Carlisle street. I hear, by the
way, that several other members of tin
social World have bought houses down
there and arc doing them over. It will
soon be another "Pomander Walk."
A S TO renovating small houses, have
you heard of the unique thing that
Teddy Gilchrist is doing? He has
bought a house on Latimer street be
tween Sixteenth and Seventeenth, and
is transforming it into im architectural
.studio, whatever that may be. As he
is the Woodward estate architect, the
place is likely to be most attractive.
I NEVER hear of a small house like
that, thnr T do not think of a bride
I once visited there. She has been
married now nbout ten years and has
quite a family. But then bhc had taken
one of these small street houses which
had six rooms altogether and if you'll
believe me, she had exactly seven maids.
And every room I went into fell over
one. Two served us with tea nnd choc
olate cake and one ran to the door to
pay vfor laundry and I'll never forget it.
It wns all I could do to get out without
screaming. Whatever made her "do It do
you suppose?
THE polo nt the Country CJub on
Saturday afternoon was even more
colorful and crowded than the week be
fore. There was only btaudtng room
left and people were pushing in every
where to get a view. The game was ex
citing; several men were thrown, and
ono of the riders nearly went off with
the goal post.
Mr. and Mrs. .Toe Dubarry were there,
Ella looking very smart in n blue tri-
corncd hat, blue dress with a square
gut yrjilte collar, and black suede shoes.
Christine and Kathcrine Chambers were
together. Christine had on an original
little toque with a circular arrangement
of flat features on the crown, nnd she
wore a taupe-colored cape with it.
Kathcrine was dressed in blue. They
are both very talented and popular
girls.
Mrs. Orville Bullitt, who, you remem
ber, was Susie Ingersoll, looked partie-'
ularly lovely. She had on a white straw
hat and long white cape over a white
dress. You can imagine how stunning
such n costume would bo with her fair
skin and blond hair. V.
Margaret Itobins had on a very in
teresting black toque and n black suit
with a little white thrend running
through it. She was abroad nursing
during tlfe war, part of the time in
Franco and then afterward in the Bal
kans, you remember.
DID
that the 'Herbert
Lloyds are home again nt Bod-
Llyd, their Bryn Mawr home? Thoy
have been in Europe for several months.
Mr. Lloyd had to go over on business
and Mrs. Lloyd went along and while
ho went to the continent she stayed
with her sister in London. Mrs. Lloyd
was Miss Dorothy Ford, you remember,
and her sister married an Englishman.
TIE Van Spcke Alstons arc still in
this country, but expect to return
to England next month, I hear. Mrs.
Alston was Miss Anno Chew, a sister
of the late Samuel Chew, the instruc
tions in whoso will have caused so
much conjecture in regard to the dispo
sition of tbo old Chew house in Gcr
raantown. Mr. and Mrs." Alston came over here
in the spring to visit Mrs. Alston's
mother and family, and it was during
their visit that Mr. Chew died. It must
have been a comfort to the members of
the family to have Mrs. Alston here,
instead of on tho other side of the
water. The ocean is mighty wide when
sorrow comes into a family and one
member is on the other side.
PATBICIA'S married now, so 1 can
tell this without worrying or an
noying her in the least. Some years ago
thero was a student at one of the large
colleges (Yale, Harvard, Princeton,
Cornell, take your choice), some dis
tance away frdta here, who thought
very highly of her. So highly, in fact,
that her name was continually in his
conversation, her picture in his room
and herself In his thoughts. He grad
uated and entirely recovered, so much
so as to become engaged to a most at
tractive gir) from the far West.
And this year Patricia's kid brother
is starting lu at that self-same college.
And, by a singular coincidence, the
only room ( he could find anywhere, is
in the bouse whero his sister's former
admirer lived while.he was in college,
And when he told tho landlady his name
she knit her brow in thought and ex-,
claimed: VI, don't know why it is, but
your name certainly does seem familiar
to met" NANCY WYNNE.

The foreign students, those coming
from Japan, China, Porto Rico and
