F it : EVENING? PUBLIC LEDGER-PHILADELPHIA', SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 191D 11' ) '', IV if f r P I, r t ! K fST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE Nancy Wynne Tells of the Teas of the Week Tulle Frocks Arc in Vogue Among the Debutantes. Four Teas Today YXTVAAi, it is lens, leas, teas, till nftcr ' ' tills first week of exhaustion going from one to the other you wonder how you arc going to get through the winter. Certainly Catherine Coxo did look perfectly sweet yesterday. She had inch a lovely frock of white tulle. It seems to mo there is nothing so light and dainty as tulle for n party frock, don't ou think so? Mary nnml Kllcn Glcmliniiing both wore white tulle frocks at their lea on Thursday, and they just looked like fragile little lace ligurcs. So dalntj and sweet! By the nor, of course if you went out to the Glcndluifing tea jou saw the two new Italian fountains that Colonel Glcndlnnlng brought home from Italy. Their garden is simply lovely and hns some beautiful statuary In it. The dahlias' were out in their full glory and In spite of the dampness, the guests swarmed out through the pnths and un der the cunning archways into the lovely place. The Glendlnuiiigs' house is very I'renchy in appearance. It is painted a sort of dull pastel pinkish shade and the shutters of the house arc of robin's egg blue. Now that sounds startling, but when you see it you know how very nttractivo it Is. THKHK is one thing about thcc, lens, one does bee many persons one does not often meet otherwise, and that makes it very nice. Besides that there Is something very charming to mo about the young girl who is about to step out into the great world. Oh!, T know there arc some cynics these days who says "There ain't no such nnimnl," but if they had been with me nt the Coxes yesterday'and at the Glendlnuiiigs the day before they would not have been oynical, for certniuly these girls arc the true types of old fashioned sweetness and girlishncss. They have the sophis tication necessary for these days, but they have an nir and n background which our Philadelphia girls have had for many years, and which nothing can take away from them. "ITTIEN I think of this afternoon 1 positively pant. First, there is itrctchcti Clay's wedding at noon out in .Tenkintown, then in Chestnut Hill there is the Karle tea to introduce Mar garet. At Haverford Polly Thayer is to make her debut: in Bryn Mawr Kdith Ncwlin and Sarah Harrison will be presented nt the tea given by Mrs. Wil liam A. Licber, their cousin, and nt Strafford, further up the Main Line, Molly Little will be given n tea by her parents, the Ashton Littles. It will mean go, go, go till evening. And in the evening the debutantes will go to the William H. Trotters' dance at their home in Chestnut Hill, which they will give for their daughter, Betty Trotter, and for Margaret Boss and Nancy Walker, of St. Louis. Isn't that going some? GOINfl back to the question of tulle, Pollv Tlinyer's dress is to be of tulle. The wee bird who snw it told me it is n combination of pnle pink and pnle blue, nnd joir'know how Polly will look In that frock ! Mr. Otto Meyer, of Milwaukee? the musician with whom Pollv has studied for several summers, has been stnying nt the Thayers' for n ,. couple of weeks and will be present nt the tea this afternoon. Polly had a severe cold the early part of the week, but fortunately is well enough to ap pear nt the tea. Peggy has asked Klizabeth Brockie as her Bpeclal friend to receive with her. All the other girls arc strictly of this year's debutante class with the excep tion of Virginfa Heckscher and Sarah Barringer, who will not come out till next year, but they arc great friends of Polly and so will be permitted to vio'in the receiving party. Peggy is to wear a dress of an un usual shade, which combines terra cotta nnd bright orange in its tones, one of those indescribable colors which you know will suit her to a T. I AM glad to hear that they are start ing tup the Saturday afternoon tea dances at the Bellcvue-Stratford. It really seems as if wo were going back to the good old times "befo' the war," doesn't it? , The teas and the Supper Club In No vember, and then the regular Stratford room (lances are to start on Monday evening. If you don't think this is to be a gay season what do you think it's going to be, anyway? NANCY WYNNE.

Safe In the League to the t.tlUor'u the Uvcnina Vuhlic ledger Sir I was much interested by a let- ter in Cope, your Tuesday's issue by Mr. if Bethlehem, referring to tho league of nations and yvns much sur prised nt your answer which followed nnd think it needs answering also. In the first place you speak of a possible dispute between the United .Mates anil .Inpan, which 1 grant Is pos- tion members of the "council" might happen to be representatives of four "British dependencies" and thnt the five so-called British votes might be favorable to Japan and, therefore, against the United States. Now I want to know how on irth you can imagine four British colonials being elected to the council, ns I be lieve' that, if I understand It right, they would have to be elected by the whola assembly of nntions and so that it would be much more likely thnt there would be, we'll say, one Spanish representa tive, one Swiss, perhaps onu Hollander and one, sav, from the Argentine or some other South American republic. Buf if by some miracle four British colonials were on the council what makes you think they would be favor able to Japan and against the United States? I feel positive the reverse would he the case. Take Canada, She is largely influenced by America and is strongly "opposed to much Asiatic immigration." Then Aus tralia she believes that Japan has designs on he ; enough said on thnt New Zealand is similary suspicious of Jaiinn. and there's no reason to sunnoso I that either South Africa or India Is I pro-Japanese. I I think that disposes of the British si-vote bugaboo, as President Wilson I has wi aptly termed it. Now, I want 'to state that the aforementioned coun- tries are not British dependencies (imagine telling a Canadian he's a Brit ish dependent), but are self-governing , or term. .Moreover, those countries are among the most progressive in the world, bur none, especially in their treatment of labor. Finally, if they are Uo have no voice in the league, do you , expect tlieni to abide by its decision? Are they not ns eligible to vote, ns Mexico, Lucailor, Colombia, Panama and ull the other little petty states. besides tlie South American republics? Anyway, show us an alternative It' you can, but I know you ennnct, A. J. IIALIf. Philadelphia, October 2. I ..
