Several hostesses are making tentative plans, but at the present, the time for three affairs has been set definitely. Mrs. Stephen A. Foster will be hostess at a dinner at her home Wednesday evening, September 2. Mrs. Murray Nelson will enter- tain at luncheon Saturday, September 5, and the same evening, Mrs. Hermon Butler will give a dinner-dance for the bridal party at her home. Garden Committee Party Large Event of Today SUNNY day will find guests from Chicago and the north shore gathering in the house and garden of Mrs. Edgar Foster Alden of 352 Linden avenue, Winnetka, at 1 o'clock today for the luncheon and benefit card party given by the garden committee of the Illinois Women's Athletic club at the home of its chairman. Tables will be arranged for bridge, bunco, and five hundred, entertainment will be provided for those who do not play cards, and motion pictures will be taken during the afternoon. Winnetka Girl Will Wed in the Fall R. AND MRS. WILLIAM R. HOWE of 555 Walnut avenue, Winnetka, announce the engagement of their daughter, Mil- dred La Rue, to Dwight B. Yoder of Chicago, son of Dr. and Mrs. A. C. Yoder of Goshen, Ind. The wedding will take place in the late autumn. Miss Priscilla Guthrie of 730 Walden road, is visiting her uncle and aunt Mr. and Mrs. Francis Sellers Guthrie, and her many friends and relatives in Pittsburgh. Mr. Guthrie, who is chair- man of the Civic club of Pittsburgh, has recently refused to become a candidate for mayor on a fusion ticket. His uncle, the late George Wilkins Guthrie, ambassador to Japan under the Wilson administration, was elected mayor in 1905, his grandfather was mayor in 1851, and his great grandfather in 1828, facts which helped to make it a very difficult decision. Mr. Guthrie expects to return to Winnetka with his niece to visit his brother, John B. Guthrie of Walden road. ---- Mrs. Tracy Buckingham, 838 Locust road, will probably be present at the wedding of her cousin, Anita Lihme, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. Bai Lihme, who is to marry Prince Edward Lob- kowicz, Saturday, August 29, at the Union chapel in Watch Hill. A re- ception will follow in the Gardens of | Norman Hall, the Lihme estate in New York. The wedding party will be a large and distinguished one, including in its list two princes, two counts and a baron, who will be the groom's at- tendants. Prince Lobkowicz and his bride will be at home at 230 Park ave- nue, New York, after December. ---- A group of north shore young people have returned to their homes from Camp Greenwood, a co-educational camp at Ellison Bay, Wis., where they have been since July 5. The camp is directed by Mrs. J. B. Riddle. Those who returned are: Margaret Huxley, Ruth Hansen, Virginia Rietheimer, Betty Edmonds, Ann Tracy, Ellen Greig, Janet Klein, Barbara Dauchy, William Larkin, Colton and William Daughaday, Dudley Gates, Walter Fisher, John Mauff, Herman Lackner, Seth Shepherd, Philip Dauchy, and Robert and Gordon Foote. ---- Members from Evanston won the honors on the regular bridge day at the Sunset Ridge club last Friday after- noon. Mrs. Robert Phalen won the first members' prize, and Mrs. Charles Hough, who is also an Evanston resi- dent, the second. Mrs. John L. Mec- Keown of the village, who was at one of Mrs. William Ogden Coleman's tables, took the guest award. Mrs. Coleman entertained at three tables in honor of Mrs. W. O. Coleman, Sr., and her daughter, Miss Margaret Coleman, of Riverdale. Many Winnetka members of the Hamilton club are keenly interested in the open house which the Chicago Yacht club is holding this afternoon and evening. Fifty boats will take part in the races, and each competing vacht, except the pups and Jacks, will carry one member of the Hamilton club as an observer. The festivities will close with a dinner-dance at the Grant Park club house. E. L. Bloomster is acting as the Hamilton club chairman in charge of events. Onin Mrs. E. S. Taylor, who has been spending the summer at Diamond G ranch in Wyoming, is expected to re- turn to her home at 261 Linden avenue, next Wednesday. Mr. Taylor, who is now in Florida, will also return to Win- netka early this fall. Mr. and Mrs. George B. Foster of Chicago have oc- cupied the Taylor residence during the summer. ----D-- Mr. and Mrs. Chester F. Sargent and their children, 214 Ridge avenue, re- turned this week to Winnetka after two months spent at the Lake Placid club in New York. Mr. and Mrs. Allen E. Philbrick and their family, 928 Elm street, are at their summer home on White Lake, near Montague, Mich. Mr. Philbrick is do- ing a great deal of painting at his sum- mer residence where he has equipped his studio with an etching press. Many of the etchings which delight lovers of art in Chicago and on the north shore owe their conception to the inspiration derived from the dunes and forest scenes along the eastern Michigan coast. The Philbricks will remain at White Lake for the autumn season. --Q-- Members of the Chicago chapter of the United Daughters of the Con- federacy, of which Mrs. Edgar Foster Alden, 321 Linden avenue, is a mem- ber, at a meeting held Friday, August 21, at the Auditorium hotel, voted t= establish a scholarship at the Hindman Settlement school, Hindman, Ky. Mrs. John C. Abernathy, president of the chapter, said that the United Daugh- ters of the Confederacy desired to add its substantial approval to the awak- ened movement for education in the mountain districts of the South. --Q-- Anita Willetts Burnham has just re- tuned to her home, "The Log Cabin," on Tower road, after a stay in Minne- sota, where she painted the portraits of two children of a prominent family there. Mrs. Burnham is now at work on a painting of the British Convict ship which lies in port in the Chicago river. Her daughter, Carol Lou Burn- ham, a young artist of promise, is in Milwaukee at present on a painting expedition. ---- Little Doris Marie Noe, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Noe of 1432 Asbury avenue, celebrated her first birthday Saturday afternoon, Au- gust 22, when eight of her little friends, her seniors by not more than two years, were entertained at her home. Junior and Bobbie Coolidge, Virginia Marsh, Marjorie. Lou Desmond, Phil.- lip Desbond, Jacqueline Gates, Harold Hill, and Mary Martha Gedge were the small guests. --_--Q-- Mr. and Mrs. Harry L. Street and their daughters, 592 Sheridan road, have returned to the village after a month spent in Wyoming, and the Yellow- stone Park. Mr. and Mrs. Street are especially grateful to be back in Win- netka after their narrow escape in the Denver and Rio Grande Grand Canyon wreck. Although two or three members of the family suffered bruises and sprains the fact that the car in which they were traveling plunged into the rarids saved them from more serious injuries. --)-- Mr. and Mrs. Arthur H. Woodward, 565 Sheridan road, and Miss Eleanor Woodward, their daughter, are at the Woodward summer home, a most de- lichtful place at Champion, Wis. Miss Woodward entertained a rather large house party the past week. Among the guests were Miss Dorothy Pickard and Miss Margaret Scott of Evanston, Miss Betty Ann Patterson of Indian- apolis, and a few eastern friends. aD Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Howard, 644 Walden road, have sold their home to the Clarence Randalls, who will occupy their new home October 1. The How- ards and the Sydney Bartletts expect to have work started next week on the new homes they will build on Sheri- dan road on the lake front, near the George B. Massey home. ---- Miss Ruth Forberg of 960 Linden avenue, is leaving Monday to spend her two weeks vacation at Bloomington. Te a) 3 5 A ~~
