Summer Style
in Ghosts
By GABBY.
THOSE Who believe In ghosts
should avoid the vicinity of the
Country club after a rainy after
noon. Gabby heare that residents
along the highway Into Happy Hol
low boulevard had a shock the other
evening, for what they assumed t«
be the first motor ghost blew by,
rwathed in fluttering wrappings of
white, which they concluded must be
ill the go this summer among the
more fashionable shades.
The ghost, however, turned out to
be real enough—Louis Metz, in fact,
who, caught out In the rain, had
Ingeniously swathed himself from top
to toe In the club towels for the
run home In his open car.
A FAD for collecting rare fish,
sent here by dealers In denizens
of tropical waters, Is causing
Loring Elliott a great deal of trouble
these dHys during the absence.of his
fiancee, Miss Helen Hoagland, In St.
Louis.
Their purchases have been so elab
orate, and the fish so rare, that they
require constant care, care Mr. Elliott
found to his discomfiture devolved
on him.
Each day, It le eald. he make* a pH -
grlmage to the home of his love, ss
to a shrine—not to lay flowers before
her picture according to the old Vic
torian precedent, but to keep thing*
attractive and homelike for the flriny
progeny.
Undoubtedly the old world
charm of Aqulla Court has en
ticement for all of ue hundred
per cent American*. For some of us,
more recently come to these shores,
these charm* have a deeper meaning,
a more poignant claim on our emo
tion*. Gabby taw a group of Italian
women sitting In one of the shaded
-- w
corners the other day, each with a
picnic lunch on her broad lap. They
were gazing about them as they ate
and chattered 'tween bites, with the
satisfaction of those seeing the things
they had known and loved.
To them the gracious curves of
the archways, the white sunlight on
ths rough stones of the courtyard,
the cool passages before the broad
windows, where bright waree caught
the eye, meant more than eurface
beauty: they meant a glimpse of the
old life In the midst of the new.
