Tom Neill knows the country, for he has been fox hunting there since he was a bare- foot boy, when he and Louie Leith, both riding the same horse, would gal- lop over fields and jump any fence as they followed hounds in full cry. He says: “"Fox hunting is the only sport that you can take part in as a boy or young man, give up as we have to do most sports when we go to work | and take up again at any time or age- MRS.

Knowing Dr. Neill well, as Vir- ginians and Washingtonians do, there are many who do not know of an honor that has been bestowed upon him recently. He has been elected president of the Medical Society of the District of Columbia. The following is from a biographical sketch published recently in a magazine. “Dr. Thomas Edwin Neill, who be- comes the president of the Medical So- ciety of the District of Columbia, was born in Virginia January 2. 1879, the | son of Mary A. Francis and Danger- ! field Fauntleroy Neill. The Ilatter served in the 6th Virginia Cavalry during the Civil War.

Maxon of Chicago | | By the Way— Beth Blaine A LETTER received from Rapallo, Italy, tells us that Mary Cowles and her clever writer sister, Virginia, known better to her friends as “Didda.” have been visiting the Frank Taylors at Villa Il Conventino, at St. Michele. Mrs. Taylor, you know, was formerly Nona McAdoo, attractive daughter of the California Senator, at one time Mrs. Ferdinand de Mohrenschildt. Later she married Dr. Edward Spencer Cowles, father of the Cowles sisters. From Mary's letter we gather that life at the Villa Il Conventino is a pleasant one, she says, “Every morning we chug out in a little motor boat and call at the various Yeaches to see every one, swim, get a sunburn and enjoy ourselves immensely in a leisurely way. Nona as always looks too lovely, especially in a pale blue bathing suit, hat, bag and parasol to match so very becoming to her lovely white hair. There seems to be a dinner party going on every night and from there we go to the most heavenly out-of-door places to dance.” The “Buddy” Marshalls are there, too. Mrs. Marshall is the daughter of Maj. Gen. and Mrs. John H. Russell. Buddy, whose real name is Charles, has with him his 19-year-old daughter Peggy, who is most attractive and a very intelligent young lady. The Marshall’s place is one of the most famous around there in the town of Porto Fino and you will remember, no doubt, their villa is the one about which “Enchanted April” was written. Visiting them at the time the letter was written, was Eugene Reynal. The Azel Wickfelds have a villa close by and Clarence Moore was arriv- ing on the scene of action at any moment. The letter con- tinues, “—it sounds as though we saw nothing but Americans, but on the contrary, there are loads of Italians with us on all the parties.” Frank Taylor, son of Mrs. Moses Taylor and the late Mr. Taylor of New York, was previously married to the lovely dark haired blue eyed Sheila Byrne, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Byrne, also of New York. At present Frank's two little daughters, Beatrice, named for her attractive aunt, Beatrice Byrne, who met with such an untimely death some years ago, and Sheila, are with him. Also we were indeed glad to hear that Nona's daughter, Fernanda, wh! has been ill in Switzerland, is much better and Mary and Virginia went to see her. A more recent picture postcard from the travelers tells us that their efforts to go to the Soviet Union were in vain so Jrom St. Michele they took a motor trip with Betty Smith, Jormer wife of Morton Smith, elder son of Mrs. Dwight Davis The trip sounds a touch dangerous since the car is a rattle trap and to quote our informant, “it whistles, blows and jumps and neither Betty mor Didda have licenses so it 1s probably prison for us. The spaghetti and red wine are divine and we keep on and on.’ * K X X% NO SENSATION quite equals that experienced by a party of people not only jittering with last minute excitement, but who have had to keep a secret for more than an hour or two, when their intended victim walks in as cool as a glacier, totally unsur- prised and ready to play the role of hostess! This is the fate of almost every surprise party and the one recently arranged at Weston, W. Va., for Miss Jane Holt, attractive sister of Senator Rush D. Holt, was no exception. Some one let the cat out of the bag about the party itself which was given in celebration of the announcement of Miss Holt's engagement to Ralph K. Chase, but they must have for- gotten to tell her that her fiance was arriving in Weston by plane for the occasion—so, all was not lost and the party was not a complete flop by any manner of means. Miss Holt was accompanied to Weston by Mrs. J. A. Hollowell and when they returned to Washington Miss Jane McClure came with them. Sunday Mrs. Hollowell will entertain at tea in honor of Miss Holt and her fiance. Andersons Back From Wedding Trip Mr. and Mrs. Daniel J.
