Daring American Hostess
Wins British Nobility After
Ignoring Custom For

Castlerosse to change frantically 4 rom

neau of his car as it careened over
L6ndon streets toward historic

Mayfair, as well as Whitechapel,
is asking what happened to^cause his
American hostess to Haunt staid
English custom e\^;n to the ipothi of
ignoring the one Jnd ohiy^way that
a princess of royal blood should be
treated. «
Evidently, it was the fault of Lord
Castlerosse and not of Mrs. Charles
, Marshall, the brilliant Chicago ma
tron, who was hostess to members of
the most exclusive London^Sciety
at what is proving to have bfcen one
of the most memorable functions of
the season. Word of what hap
pened in Grosvenor Square Mansion,
-the residence oi Walter Hines Page
during his war ambassadorship and
leased by Mrs. Marshall from Do
wager Lady Burton, only now is
seeping to the man in the street from
those whose social position placed
them among the shining array of
guesta that evening.
The ball was preceded bv a formal
dinner. The cream of Mayfair had
assembled, lords and ladies, earls,
barons and the loveliest ladies of the
land, all resplendent with jewels and
decorations and bearing egsily the
cqnsciouanesa of their ancient line
age. __
"Her Highness, Princess Mary.”
t announces the butler. A hush falls
over the chatting groups as the
daughter of the king and queen of
„ 'England makes her entrance.
The usual courtesies having been
exchanged, the guests remain quiet
to await the announcement that
tradition decrees always shall follow
the arrival of a member of the royal
family, namely the atmouncement
. that dinner is served.
But it is not forthcoming! Guests
are non-plussed! What can hove
happened? Surely as brilliant a
hostess as Mrs. Marshall must know
of the custom! Shall we resume our
conversation? What can Her High
ness be thinking? Embarrassing
momrnts pass, dragging into what
•«“Hied hours in this unprecedented
crisis. Would the announcement of
dinner never come?

Subsequently it did cortre. But
not until Lord Castlerosse had ar
rived. By all the rules that govern
nobility, he should have reached
the darkness, visible only as beams
from each couple’s light cut thf
black at ever-shifting angles, pro
ducing an effect as futuristic as any
Grosvenor before the arrival of the that ever came from the studios of

Princess.^ He knew it. And it wjis
in that knowledge that he suffered
as his valet assisted him to dress.in
his motor car as it sped toward the
guardian gates of his hostess’ man
sion.
Guest* Cold to Hostess’ Bounty
f
The dinner was sumptuous. To
all outward appearances, it was suc
cessful. But, underneath the man
nered reserve of the guests, they
were aghast! Never in their mem
ory had a royal personage been com
pelled to await the arrival of lesser
nobility! The incident hung over
the assemblage-fn Crosvtnbr H»Vuse
like the fog in the square outside.
. Despite *o embarrassing a sfarf,
Mrs. Marshall’s ball is t^Uced of as
the flashing climax of the London
social season. If not forgotten, the
delayed dinner announcement has
been forgiven and Mrs. Marshall is
being credited with having intro
duced the mos^ welcomed social in
novation of many a season.
- In the course of the ball which
followed the dinner, the ruriosqy of
guests was piqued when footmen in
dicated that they were to enter a
ballroom that was ah«olutely in
darkness. Somewhere in. the inky
spaces inside, an orrhestra was play
ing. As each couple entered, they
were presented with a small hand
flashlight. •
Wonder changed to amazement
and amazement, to delight at the
dazzling spectacle in the darkened
room Scores of couples, dancing in
the masterful German cinema direc
tors!
Here and there, for a fraction of a
moment, jewelled head dresses, or
necklaces flashed as some couple’s
light picked them out of the dark
ness. Ever moving, th« lights
themselves looked like dancing
jewels, weaving sparkling patterns
of almost oriental brilliance. Then
the hostess had lights of different
colors weave their way into the
fantastic scheme. Intoxicated by the
novelty, the guests began to express
their elatidh bv original groupings,
wilh various -bouquets and rhister*
of colored flashlights resulting Apd
then came dances of various designs,
visible onlv as the lights were ma
neuvered by the captivated gpests.
Flashlights Save tha Day
Thus w*as what threatened at the
start to be a somewhat frosty affair
turned intn a personal triumph for
Mrs. Marshall. Following her lead,
the younger s tart set are staging
flashlight parties in their get-to
gethers on the river and any number
of country estates have been the
scenes of week-end flashlight garden
parties. London society declares
that the vogue for the winter season
is set and that flashlight parties will
be the rage. *
And the only interest shown n~w
in the uncomfortable moment* fol
lowing Princess Mary’s arrival at
Grosvenor Square Mansion is in
what could have delayed Lord Cas
tlerosse! *

1 The method of review must always
• be determined by the genius of the
*| teacher, the aptitude of the pupils
and the particular gra^e In the school.
For the adult classes three methods
are suggested.
I. Biographical.
During the quarter six great
prophets have been Under review,
namely, Elijah, Elisha, Amos, Hosea,
Haggai and Isaiah. Assignments of
, these characters to representative
members of the Hass should be made
: tie week before so that they may
come prepared £o present the vital
characteristics of these men.
II. Application of tha Prophetic
Messages to Modern Life. ^
Assignments should be mad^ the
; preceding Sunday so that the members
!of the class may come prepared to
make application of the vital mes-
f sages of the prophets to the affairs
I of modern life. The following ques-
j tions may be considered -as represent-
> atlve:
What application can be made of
the prophets’ teachings as to: (1)
The land question In the United
States, (2) the problem of pauperiwn,
3) the problem of capital and labor,
(if light on the theological contro-
jversles of the present time, (5) a
'message for the modern woman, (6)
the eftuse of prohibition, (7) modern
amusements, (8) modern church life.

Though the nation had grievously
sinned by worshiping idols, oppress
ing their fellow men and persecuting
the prophets who spake against them,
God invited them to return to Him.
Lesson for November 13.
Israel's apostasy was illustrated by
Hosea’s unfaithful wife. In spite of
their wickedness God loved them and
pled with them to return unto Him.
. Lesson for November 20.
Isaiah pointed out the moral state
of the people, exposing their ingrati
tude, stupidity, and habits of evil, and
showed them that although God had
severely chastised them, their case
was not hopeless.
Lesson.for December 4.
Isaiah reminded Israel of God’s pe
culiar favor under the .figure of a
favorite vineyard. He pointed out
the sins which brought their ruin.
The outstanding sins were oppression
of the poor, drunkenness, proud self*
conceit and perversion of justice.
Lesson for Decsmber 11.
Through Isaiah’s long ministry he
was privileged to give counsel to sev
eral kings. Sometimes it was coun
sel of encouragement, sometimes of
rebuke. To Ahaz he gave counsel of
assurance, pointing to jr day of de
liverance and. blessing: through Im
manuel. "When Hezeklab faced the
crisis of Invasion by tbe Assyrians, he
resorted to tbe bouse of the Lord and
sent for Isaiah. ^ • -

Tropical Birds Happy
Only When Employed
In the tropical bird house at the
Audubon Park zoo, New Orleans, lives
a collection of birds said to be the
most industrious creatures of all liv
ing beings. They are so Industrious,
say the zoo supervisors, that mate
rials with which the tiny creatures
carry on-their unceasing labors are
withheld from the spacious bird hqpse
except during certain hours. Wheo the,
birds are deprived of this material,
known as “raffia,” a kind of palm
fiber, they become dissatisfied, appar
ently because they are forced to re
main Idle.
The birds are known as “weavers,”
getting their name from tbe work in
which they are so proficient
— Th$ weaver comes from the Trans
vaal and lake regions of Africa, south
ern Asia and Anstralta. When the
“raffia" Is placed in tbe bird bouse the
Umie workers start weaving nestsi
When the supply of material la ex
hausted they start tearing down nests
already woven and rebuilding them.
Thus they occupy themaelvea until all
but exhausted.
S UCCESSFUL farmer* don’t trust to luck. Their success
in getting money-making crops is due to the fact that, year
after year, thgy use plenty of Chilean Nitrate of Soda.
Check back cn the beat cotton crops in your neighbor
hood ... inquire about testa made by the Experiment button,
or other field demonstrations. Remember the cotton cham
pions oi ’25 and '26. Was it just chmnce that the best resuha
always came where Nitrate of Soda was used?
It was Soda, not luck, that gave these outstanding resuha.
Cotton High—Soda Ijovd!
There ia no substitute for Nitrate of Soda. It is the nitrogen
that meets every cottcn requirement. It absolutely beats
the weevil It has no acid effect on your soil... won’t bum
your hands or clothes.
Last season many cotton growers waited too long to buy
their Soda and were forced to go without. This year, with
cotton high and Nitrate of Soda lower than it has been for
years, wise farmers are ordering their Soda now to make sure.
There is plenty of Nitrate of Soda to be had at favorable
prices. .. but we urge you to make the most of your
present advanuge by placing your order immediately.
