For the past six weeks it was planned that they would sail from S8an Francisco to join Mrs. Marye's daughter, Mrs, Wil- liam Thomas, in Shanghal. Finally, the 8. 8. President Hoover sailing September 4 was selected. There was a round of farewell parties given for the two travelers. Nowhere 1n the world are there sweeter or kinder friends than in California_and particularly in Burlingame, the Newport of the West, where entertaining is dome on a magnificent scale. Completely ezhausted from the series of teas, dinners and luncheons, Mrs, Cloman and Mrs. Marye arrived at the boat. Friends, laden with gifts, crowded into the stateroom to wish them bon voyage. As the sailing hour approached, being seasoned travelers and knmowing how deadly it is to stand on @ pier waving and waving good-by, with smiles becoming more fized, they begged their friends not to wait for the boat to sail. Leis- urely they unpacked and settled down for a three weeks’ lovely sea voyage. Finally it was borne in on them that the ship was not moving, 20 they went on deck to investigate and, to their amazement, found the ship still at the pier! On making inquiries, they found that there was a seamen’s strike starting, but the officers assured them it would be settled in short order and they would sail immediately. Time passed—each hour there were more assurances. That night they went to bed and slept peacefully expecting to be far out on the Pacific when they awoke—but the next morning they found they were still at the dock! For two days they remained there not daring to leave the ship— lest it should sail without them. Finally they gathered up their books, candy and fruit, and all their luggage and sneaked home, much to the delight of their friends, who teased them no end. The latest bulletin received brought the news that they salled the 10th of September on a Japanese steamer with no strikes or labor complications! * K k% BSERVATIONS by a returning voyager through New York during the off-season before the definite trend to Fall fashions has been agreed upon: The new Fall hats, all front and no back, which give “Milady” the effect of having been gently kicked at the base of her dainty cranium; while “His Lordship” conveys the impression of being sustained by heavenly power through the medium of his trousers tops, this fad permitting a large quota of his manly ankle, enough display to shame the fairest darling of old Rome, who loved to tantalize, when tripping up the colosseum steps, so aptly described in “Quo Vadis.” So, entre the chapeaux that defy the law of gravity and the “heavenly trouser suspension,” the well padded shoulders of a diplomat and the nonchalant waistless tailoring of a member of the State Department look very fine, when returning to settle down with a sigh to the old familiar things, fervently praying that our bonnets will be less nerve racking and our mascu- line contingent will look earth bound and not aspire to celestial heights! Diana Rowland has just returned from her “private island” in Maine, accompanied by Mr. Anthony Adverse, who, as we all know, was a child of adversity. Anthony, called Tony for short, to date has followed his illustrious name-sake's career to a T. Found wandering in the streets of Booth Bay Harbor, Tony is a perfect foil for his mistress, who's coloring, like his, is what the French term “matt.” Defining that all expressive term—eyes, hair and skin have the same warm tone, Diana being a symphony in golden- brown, Tony, who by the way is an “Iranian” cat, is an unusual color of rosy-beige —often dubbed strawberry-roan by the inartistic. Both Tony and his attractive mistress have outstanding tawny eyes and we wonder if it will be the “Lady or The Tiger” in the awarding of the golden apple! ! With Marrucca and Gerard Walravens of the Belgium Embassy off to Mezico as Charge d’Aflaires, we can’t help feeling a bit depressed even though they have assured us that they will be back in a few months. For these were the same assurances proffered by Antoine Beyens when he left early last Spring for the same post. He did return for a few short weeks, but to leave almost immediately upon his transfer to the home ofice in Brussels. So we sincerely hope that the Walravens will not jollow the regretted Antoine’s steps too accurately. Since Zoe Schlatter started for Bermuda on her honeymoon last January, she has had a series of them—enough to make the average bride envious. For after Bermuda she and Ernest spent several months in Switzerland with her mother-in-law, Madame Schlatter De Roll, and now they have left for a five-day trip to Niagara Falls, which is the lot of the American citizen who can barely squeeze his honeymoon in between 5 o’clock on Friday and 9 o’clock on Monday! Far be it for us to counsel any girl to wed a “rolling stone,” but if it's a diplomatic one, well—life promises to be very interesting!
