Upon being brought into the drawing room to be pre- sented to assembled guests, she demonstrates a personal interest in each one. She is terribly anzious to know if they have any underwear on—and promptly proves that she has' Needles to say, in this unbearable weather, one may imagine that many of her attractive mother’s friends have embarrassing moments! However, little Nancy will leave the end of this week to stay with her little cousin, the daughter of Mrs. Chester Snow, and from the description gleaned from Mrs Snow of the camp they have taken for relazation in the woods of Maine, little Nancy will get over her underwear complex! ko HE nicest baby for miles around—which proves he is a nice baby, as his neighbors scarcely know of his presence—is young Jock Newbold, age 6 months. Jock takes his daily outing with his English nanny, who is clad in the traditional blue, and shows no snobbishness in his generous and friendly nature. He is always delighted to be talked to, and mever hurts your feelings when you make facial con- tortions for his bemefit. Yes, indeed, young Jock is on the way to being a great thinker and philosopher—if he isn’t one already! He and his nanny are now en visite with Grandma and Grandpapa Wilkins at Narragansett, enjoying the cool breezes of that gay and pleasant Summer resort, while his mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. John L. Newbold, jr., are bearing up remarkably well in the heat of this big city. * ok ok % NOTHER nice baby I know is a beautiful dark-eyed little girl of 3 who resides on Long Island. She i¥ very intimate with her maternal grand- mother, who is quite the perfect grandparent with whom she always enjoys herself. Her father's mother, however, though one of the most charming persons I know, is not quite so friendly, in fact, rather formal and easily shocked. One day the latter called upon her granddaughter, the first call in some weeks, and in trying to entertain the little girl she pointed to the bunch of spring flowers pinned to the lapel of her tailleur and sald, “Smell the pretty flowers.” The little girl, used to being read aloud to by her other granny, was rather bored by this procedure, took a quick sniff and walked away saying, “Smells just like gin”! It would be impossible to try to describe the consternation of the entire household, especially as it is one of the more orderly and better behaved ones of this generation, and also it was quite useless to try to explain to the horrified grandmother that the child had no idea what gin smelt like. The incident was just a case of “the irony of fate” that the little girl should have even mentioned the word gin in the presence of that particular grandparent.
