An orchestra of 10 pieces played, and the moon rose up over the Bull Run Mountains at 11 o'clock to give the last touch of romance to this beautiful scene. Recelving with Miss Noland and iss Smith were Mrs. Edmund Smith f Baltimore and Mrs. James Ball of Richmond, sisters of Miss Noland, who formerly lived at Burrland, near Middleburg. A Virginia supper was served at 1 o'clock, after which there was a floor show. As this was the last large dance of the Summer season for coming debutantes and the young men—most of whom leave for college in the next week or 10 days—all of them lingered until “Home, Sweet Home” was played. ERENE Among the guests were Miss Eliza- beth Porter Gaddis, who was pre- sented to society on Saturday at the large reception given by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Houston Gaddis, at Piedmont Farm; Miss Bettina Bel- mont, daughter of Mrs. Arthur White and the late Raymond Belmont, an attractive debutante of the coming season, who will' be presented at a large ball to be given by Mr. and Mrs. Arthur White at North Wales Club, Warrenton, in December; Miss Fanny Nelson Lyon of Purcellville, one of the most popular debutantes in Baltimore, last Winter; Miss Polly Buchanan of Warrenton, another debutante of last season; Miss Margie Morton of Warrenton, a beauty who was presented in Richmond last sea- son; Miss Jane Wilber of Warrenton, one of Virginia’s most charming girls; Miss Mary Welsh Dougherty, daugh- ter of Mr, and Mrs. Graham Dough- erty, who will be presented at a reception given by her parents at their place, Woodley, next Saturday afternoon, and Miss Gretchen Thomp- son of Summit Point and New Orleans, who wil! be presented in New Orleans this Winter.
