B It would be mean bo even suggest that in
M : the possibility of a leave of absence being crant-
m ed a couple of brother off.cers, they might take
M advantage of the Vacation to make a visit to
M Reno", so it is best to say nothing about it.
m While on the subject of the divorce colony, at
H , home and abroad, I'd like to make a piker's bet
m that there is a young man in Los Angeles who is
M ! laughing h's head off over the telegraphic an-
m ' nouncement that Edna Goodrich and Nat Good-
M win will probably separate.
B Mi's. Goodwin and her mother quietly boarded
M one of the big Cunarders several weeks ago
M , bound for Europe, and Nathaniel slid into little
H old New York last week and grabbed the
B "Deutschland" with the same destination in view,
Hj and on nil four sides of "Lobster Square" the
H littles birds (in $500 see-skin waists and Lichten-
M stein, hats) are chortling "I told you so."
m ' To a census taker who recently questioned
Kll him as to whether he was single, married, or
I divorced, the fat comedian answered "Yes."
.With a sense of humor like a goat, the official
immediately got mad, but will somebody please
explain what else the giddy old boy could say?
Perhaps it ds no nice tiling to call Nat a giddy
old boy. Time was when he could have said to
l the writer, to the writer's discomfort, "Beat it
M J while the roads are sprinkled what balm there
HW is in Gilead is" bottled, and, boy, you annoy me
H with these references."
H I j That was but two short years ago, while Nat
H j was looking for Miss Goodrich and her mother in
m I Paris just preceding their dash to America and
m 4 the subsequent marriage of Edna and Nat. And
H now there seems to be a possibility of love's
M young dream series 4 being shattered. As one
H i of Nat's old cronies remarked, "It is easy for Nat
H j . to get them, but he can't seem to hold them."
H A near-by bu,mp of business acumen has stood
H the former Miss Goodrich in good stead, and prob-
H ably she is better off than any of Nat's previous
H wives, for in the beginning of their romance,
H according to what they both have stated, the
M amount of the income she was to receive was
H stipulated in writing, and signed by a hand that
H could be identified from Brown's Chop House to
H Ocean Park.
H If there is any truth in the rumor that they
H are about to separate it would seem that some
H significance might be attached to the old saw
H about changing the name and not the letter
H but the summer will tell.
H The largest wedding of the week was that of
H Miss Marjorie Brooks and Levi Jennings Riter,
H which took place Wednesday evening at the
H home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles

ettes graced a number of ladies and the oc
casion. One of the largest bridge parties of the month
was that given by Mrs Claude S. Williams and
Miss Charlotte Holmes at the apartments of the

The affairs for Mrs. ' Quigley have been many
and varied the past few weeks and Mr. Quig
ley's bachelor dinner to twenty or more of his
friends at the Commercial club last week was
one of the most elaborate and successful spreads
the club has housed in months. Mr. and Mrs.
Quigley will remain abroad during the summer,
and Miss Emma Quigley, who has been a guest
here for the last year, with the young sons of
Mr. and Mrs. Quigley, will accompany the latter
