St. Mary's Alumnae
Mapping Program for
.Thanksgiving Dance
Mrs. John Fowler to Head
Reception Committee for
Leonardtown Event.
IEONARDTOWN, Md., November
10.—The members of the St. Mary's :
Academy Alumnae Association are 1
making plans to hold their annual ■
dance and card party on Thanksgiving '
day, November 29, at Hotel St. Mary's,
In this city. The Reception Commit- '
tee will be headed by Mrs. John Fow- '
1er, the newly elected president, and
the other members of the alumnae
will assist. Numbers of society folk
from St. Marj-s County and all parts
of Southern Maryland's five counties
will attend, as well as those home
from prep schools and colleges and
others who come home annually for
the Thanksgiving holidays from
"Washington, New York and Balti
more, Md.
Albert S. Jones of Kinsail, Va., and
formerly of this city, aided by his
guests. Mr. Harry F. Scott of Warsaw
Va., and Mr. R. c Middleton of
Ceciiton, Va., opened the Pall fox
hunting season in the lower part of
St. Marys County this week and have
held a number of successful chases
each day. They were joined by Mr
William Nash of Glebe, who also
augmented the Virginian's famous fox j
hounds with his, as did Mr. McQuire
Mattingly of Susquehanna plantation
on the Ptauxent, where a number of
the hunts have been held, as well as in
the Valley Lee section, along the shores
of the lower Potomac River. Mr.
Joseph Goldsborough of Medleys
Neck, well-known sportsman of Phila
delphia and Southern Maryland, also
took part in the hunt. This sport,
which had nearly died out in this sec
tion, is being rapidly revived by a num
ber of the local society folk who find
it full of thrills. Thirty years ago in
St. Marys County fox hunting was
very popular and the title, master of
hounds, was handed down from father
to son. Pox abound here and drag
hunts are never necessary.

ation of the St. Mary's Female Semi
