Byron Springs will absoro some of the Macfariane days. But must it not be a pleasant thing to be con- scious of such appreciation as has been shown charming Polly Dunn and her husband? CeN S The tea in Miss Annie Frances Briggs’ studio yesterday was marked by its at- mosphere of farewell. The pretty atelier is to be dismantled and the talented artist to return to Europe very soon, there to continue her profession into further high channels. Miss Briggs has recognition in London and Paris, where she will pass her time. Mr. and Mrs. Thornton Crittenden, who are in Lon- don, will entertain Miss Briggs during a portion of her stay. During the com- ing two weeks this clever and alto- gether charming young woman will be at her studio, at Clay and Kearny streets (Arts and Crafts building). where portfolios of her work will be on ale. And, by the way, there’s usually a mighty good brew of tea on tap for wanderers in this historic old studio. Pl ol The news of Mrs. Guy Edie and her social successes in Washington, D.

Mrs. Edie is a granddaughter of the late Bishop Kip and, since her mar- riage to Major Edie, has spent most of the time away from San Franeisco, mainly residing in the Philippines dur- ing the station there of the Fourth Cavalry. The lectures at Berkeley furnish an excellent opportunity for the ambi- tious, and among those who are at- tending the French course are Miss Elsie Tallant and Miss Christine Pome- roy.
