'Ncmcy Wynne Talks About the May Market Which Will Be
Held Tomorrow in Germantoivn Comments on
Captain Biddle's Escape
"yon know the Gprm.intowr. May Market
wilt ho held tomorrow out in Vernon
Park. It seems inthcr ton' had that the
Flower Market in town should bo on the
Kime day. t hope the two affairs won't
Interfere with each other, an vry many
of the same people would ro to both.
Vernon Park will be given ovfr all dav
to pleasure-loverB. and all nfjes will be
welcomed and m.ido to feel at home If the
committee In charge can do po. It will
certainly leave no stone unturned to irako
It a success.
Indians are coin? to lead the ponies.
which will be there for the kiddles to ride.
and a real honestto-eoodnesi shephcrdesn
with her shorn rhrep will sell wool. The
Innocent little sheep is to prove that the
yarn Is all pure wool.
Gypsies will tell fortune I don't know
It those cypsles will be awful "real." per
haps ono mlRht be called "rinronro" r
another "Helm." or perhaps "Then." I'm
not sure, hut these are rome opsles who
are all rood hand readers, rerhapa some
or one of them will be at the Rlttenhouso
Square tomorrow, thnueh I have not heard
of fottune tolling there.
TIIF.nr, will bo lemonade, flowers, war
bread and cnl.e. and recipe-, will be sold,
thereby nldinc the Government In the con
servation of whc.it and Incidentally nldtns
the harassed housekeeper by giving her
recipes which will enahlo her to servo her
usual delicious "cats."
And after all thi. if there are any other
wants that arc not satlrned, the visitor may
. stop into the rountiy t-t.ne, whlh will bo
presided ovrr bv Mm. IMwiirl Mellor. and,
bellevo 'me. she ha everything tn sill in
that storo "hut tho kitchen rtove." and
wVin ifimw. hut thnt r.hc mav have ono of
those by tomorrow. A few things rho has
are liverturk. ve-cliibles. pimmc, rib
bons, pranuts and toilet articles of all
kinds.
The May Market will be held for tho
benefit of the Morton f.treet Day Nursery
and tho Woman'.) Permanent J.mdenry
Association of Cermsntovvn. It Friday
proves rainy, Saturday will be the day for
tho market.
WASN'T Cliaitio Riddle's a miraculous
escape? He has been dolnc some won
derful work "over there" in the aviation,
and last week had an encounter with an
enemy plane, in which he was shot in the
Ick and his machine nan disabled and fell
to tho ground, roitumtely ho did not
lose consciousness and war able to crawl
from tho machine to a shell hole nearby,
lie had bately reached it when a bomb
from the German piano .'-truck bis machine
and shattered it Into tiny pieces.
Charlie Piddle. If the son of Mr. and Mis.
Charles Kiddle, of Andalu.li. They llvo In
the wonderful old Piddle M -union high up
on the river bank, above the I-'n'w place.
Voting Piddle went over early In the war
and has done some splendid things Ho U
evidently a mighty pood spoit. for his
cable to the family says th.it ho has a
slight flesh wound in the Ick and he ex
pects to return to his plane In a week.
Tho fart that Captain Hall has been lo
cated in a German hospital gives one hopes
about others who have been reported miss
ins. When this awful war Is over may we
never have to live through another. .
MARGARET SMITH HART has returned
from her we.'iolng trip and will live
with her mother, Miv. Adams, until she is
able to Join Tommy, which may not he till
after the war. Tommv Is at present at
Mineola, so It is not so bad. She can get
on now and again, as for instance yes
terday sho heard he had a little time in
New York and so went over and lunched
with him.
Theirs was certainly a pretty weddlnc;
last Wednesday at St. Mark's. That church
always makes an artistic background, for
a wedding group.
EMILY, of whom you have, heard now
and again In those columns, has been
taught to appreciate the beauties of nature,
but when it come3 to crawlinc; into
mother's bed at 5:30 a. m. and discoursing
learnedly on tho wonderful good the awful
rain, of that morning (which, Incidentally,
was yesterday, and you know how often
you had to get up.to open and close win
dows .through tho night) would bo for the
little flowers aim pretty grass, and dear
little birdies who would be out hunting for
breakfast. Mother did not apprcciato it
quite so much as usual.
And speaking of Emily. I must tell you
another story. Mother asked a few friends
In to lunch with her informally ono day
this week. Emily, who Is an observant
young person of five, lost nothing of the
preparations that were going on In tho
house. Finally she ran out to play, and
mother really forgot her till Just after the
guests had arrived, and they were all seated
on the porch before lunch was announced.
Suddenly around the corner from down
the street came Emily, followed by soma
sixteen small kiddies of about her own as-e,
In various states of morning clothes,
rompers, etc., and much mudpie and sand.
She led the procession majestically Into tha
garden, v-ith the most hospitable expres
sion of countenance. "But, Emily," said
mother, "what's the Idea?"
"Oh, I thought I'd invito my little friends
to luncheon," smiled Emily, the knees of
whose rompers were about .as black as
those of any child present. Needless to
say, the porchful of guests set up one
shriek of unholy Joy, while mother re
quested tho small but unexpected guests
to return to their homes and families.
