PULLMAN RIVALS SOCIAL REGISTER Indicates “Real” Ones Arriving at Palm Beach | | | | d | s .gister still may prevail | m Beach,but those who watch | the arrival of winter residents now | recognize the Pullnan as a more popular indicator of wealth and ex- clusiveness. To arrive in a private car is an indication of exclusiveness and of membership in high social sets. But to arrive in a priva -owned Pull- man is proof positive. And the | Phipps family, with its several branches, of New York and W bury, L. L, uses an entire spec train, which also brings the family's polo ponies Comparatively few persons own | private cars. The “Japauldon” of the | James Donahues, is considercd the most magnificent car on rails. It is elaborately finished, and has a bath- | room with gold fittings. ard F. | Hutton, J. Leonard Replogle and | Edward Beale McLean are among | others who have owned their Pull- mans for year: | Mrs, Graham Fair Vanderbilt re- | cently arrived in the Marco Polo, the | newest private car, containing many | innovations. Incidentally all the | Vanderbilts have always been “pri- vate car folk” at Palm Beach. E. 7. | Stotesbury, Seton Porter, Tom Tag- zart, Mrs. Raymond T. Baker, Jay . Carlisle, W. H. Luden, Horace Dodge, Alfred Sloan are others on the list. | Most Pullmans are engaged only | for the trip here and later for re- turn home, but. some remain throughout the season. More private cars have come here this year than ever before and enough ha parked on the tracks to make up five of six full trains of nine mans each.
