Other obligations incident to the memorial chapel will be taken care of with half the proceeds of this year's birthday party. Tickets for the garden party may be had of Mrs. Ralph Murrell of the Grey Ladies and Mrs. Rufus L. Holt and her committee of the Memorial Chapel Guild. All persons wishing to secure res- ervations for the bridge party, which will take place in the Red Cross House heginning at 2 o'clock Saturday after- noon, may do so from Mrs. John W.

Mrs. John R. Williams, chairman of the Thrift Shop Committee, is, as usual, the moving spirit of this birth- day party. During the past eight years, since its establishment, the shop has turned over the tidy sum of $110,~ 000 to its five member organizations, the Children's Country Home, the Children’s Hospital, the Child Welfare Society, pre-natal clinic of Columbia Hospital and the Junior League for its social service department. In sending out her cards asking for & “nice white elephant” for the party tomorrow, Mrs. Williams has asked every one to mark their gifts for the sale with their names, so purchasers may know the donors. And the word “nice” means that there are to be no second-hand or cast-off articles, but delightful gadgets of all kinds and descriptions. Mrs. Williams plans now to buy a truck, letter it with the magic words “Thrift Shop” and use it to collect all the articles donated by the shop's hosts of friends and contributors. The shop has no capital investment, no stockholders, is just a charitable insti- tution flourishing under the slogan— “We turn your trash into cash.” Every year heretofore Mrs. Williams | has given a big benefit in May, always a delightful feature on the Spring calendar, but this year, what with one campaign after another for other de- serving organizations, it seemed best to postpone any such function until Fall, hence the party tomorrow, at which the presidents of the five boards, Mrs, Philip O. Coffin, Mrs. Frederick H. Brooke, Mrs. Frederick De C. Faust, Mrs. D. Lawrence Groner and Mrs. William W. Mackall, jr., will be present. There will be tea and all sorts of other good things for which the shop is famous, and an amusing time for | all who come. | MissE‘Salt'zstein Bride of Mr. Sycle The marriage of Miss Ruth Saltz- stein, daughter of Mr. Joseph Saltz- [stein of Milwaukee, Wis, and Mr. | Lewis S. Sycle of this city, formerly |of Richmond, Va. son of Mr. and | Mrs. Lawrence Sycle of Richmond, | took place yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Kahn, 5709 Sixteenth street.
