made In reund-ncclt effcetB cut straight

nljtcd and covered with dainty puflinRs
of the tulle or lace trimmings. Most of
the. coiffures weie dressed with little
nrrnths of flowers, tee. rosebuds nnd
ferget-me-nets placed ce(uett!shly en
die head at anjinglc. And the men In
tight trousers and velvet-cellared coats.
C 1.081' your eyes and you can sec
them new: Mrs. IIuglitM Hallctt,
nlie was the beautiful Kmily Kcham
here. Mrs. Kmlm Meigs, long since
dead, and who was at that time Miss
Cernelia Itegers. aa pietty a eung girl
ni veu would want te see. judging from
her pictures. Miss Anna Huekley. who
nfteruard married the late Jehn New New
held, nnd was the mother of the late
Arthur I'mlen Newbold, of Clement and
Jehn Ncvbeld. and of Mrs. IJeauvenu
Itnrie, Jr., and Mrs. William Tayler.
Ami the Misses lVvie, Miss Kmilie, who
had mnrrled (ieneral Ilehlen. and Miss
Eliza, who was Dr. William Kcntlng's
second wife, and MKs Jesephine, who
died here about five jenrs age, the lat
of the family of ten children of the
late Mr. and Mrs. Jehn Iterie.
And think of the old families that
weie there represented! McCalls,
l'nges, (illlesnies, Duudases, Lewises,
ltoblnenn. McKcans, Hodeuits, J.n
guerennes, Browns Cadwaladers, Nor Ner
rises, Merrises, Unynrdi, Jcuks, 1'ep

Dnllnves, Draytens, Savages. K wings,
Wains, I.ees, Itrecks Celeman", Tbomp Tbemp
fcms, Kra7,lers, Siblejs, Uixens, and
1 lust cannot begin tit enumerate ntiy
ethers.
IIIAVK been tebl of the fountain of
cologne which was placed in tlie
renter of the ballroom fleer en that oc
casion, and of the foyer, which was
then considered very, very beautiful,
tee. And for this ball nett month we
will have the wimp Academy Moored
ever, and tbe nnme foyer, only the
renovated one with tbe crystal mirrors
and wonderful lighting. I would net
be surprised it the committee should
lfink into old records and see what was
done then and perhaps repent it.
Would it lint be a lovely idea te ask
these who go te dress In costumes of
IV"? I wonder if such nn idea lias
been thought of.
The old painting of (ia7.inign which
hung for cars In the fecr gives ene
an idea of the dress of these days. She,
you lenicmber bearing, was the great
soprano of then nnd was the prima
denna nt the opening opera nil these
jenrs back.
MNs Frances Wister. who is presi-ili-iit.
is most nuxleus te 1iup some de
tail of this interesting occasion, and if
Jcmie of you have some costumes te
show which will assist in arranging the
opening feature of the ball, she would
le delighted. T'nfertuuntely the news
papers of TS," were net managed with
the ability of the press of today and the
Recounts are net detailed enough te be
of such assistance.
TO T1JHN from old fashioned gowns
te these of modern times, have you
veen thnt lovely seal coat thnt Marie
Louise Ashhurst Smythe is wearing?
It's three-quarter length and flnlshe.l
with cellar nnd cuffs e' moleskin. She
was wearing a smart bat of henna
iliivetj ne with the ceut nnd it wus most
becoming.
Anether geed-looking costume that I
saw during the week was that worn by
Knnnv Sinnickson Dougherty. It was
of light gray tweed. ieat and skirt, and
her hat was' u sports model of the same
material. With this she were a dnrl:
blue silk scarf which was ery geed
looking.
