Gablesgrams

by HELEN REYNOLDS Fourth of July in the tropics is not like Fourth of July in any other part of the country. In northern climes, the day will be announced at dawn tomorrow with the boom, boom of giant firecrackers. There will be all day picnics at lakes, all day jaunts in the country and displays of fireworks in neighborhood blocks, civic centers and at country clubs. Down here in the tropics the fourth is passed much like any other day. The two country clubs have planned parties. At the Country Club of Coral Gables the first dance of the junior season will take place with the members of the Alpha Sigma Pi junior fraternity sponsoring the party ... At the Miami Biltmore Country Club members will again enjoy the day with golf tournaments, bridge party and buffet supper ... Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Mumower are chairmen for the supper, and will be assisted by Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Johnson and Capt. and Mrs. Donald B. Johnson ... Mr. and Mrs. Alpheus Collins, who recently returned from the North will be hosts to a group of members including the A. B. Morrisons, the Otto C. Ellison's the Bradbury Barnes ... Mr. and Mrs. Lawson A. Cheetham and a party of four plan to spend the Fourth fishing among the keys ... Mr. and E. C. Hodge and children Patsy and Teddy who have just returned from six weeks at Daytona Beach will spend the day at their cabana at the Roney Plaza ... Mr. and Mrs. Dan J. Squires of 627 Avenue Aledo will have an informal barbecue in their garden honoring their son, Dan Jr., on leave from the Naval Air Base at Jacksonville for the week end. Guests will include neighbors and young friends of Dann's. * No need to ever sing the praises of "Sanabell Island" to Mrs. I. W. England of 315 Avenue Menores. Mrs. England and her son have just returned from the fabulous west coast shell expedition spot, so publicized with color pictures this past winter in a National weekly magazine. Mrs. England says, that on top of paying $1.70 ferry toll that Fr. Meyers to the island; of being charged $3.50 for a night's lodging—very poor at that; and of searching and searching the sands both at Sanabell and Baptista Island for "globs" they returned to find they could buy the same shells at a Trail roadside stand for one-third the price asked for them at Sanabell. * Mrs. Louis K. Manley of 2109 Granada Boulevard plans to leave about the first of August for Hendersonville and a visit with Mrs. Lillian Patton De Long at her summer country place. Devoted to horse back riding, Mrs. Manley expects to spend much of her time riding with Miss Catherine Louise De Long, who is often seen about the Coral Gables Bridal paths on her thoroughbred, "Diamond Peabine". * Interesting newcomers to Coral Gables and additions to the army and navy set are Dr. and Mrs. Walter A. Davies who have taken a house at 1245 Avenue Andalusia. Dr. Davies, a lieutenant-commander, is stationed at Opa Locka—came here from Pensacola ... Mrs. Davies, a talented singer, has appeared professionally as the soprano of a young woman quartet composed of celloist, violinist and pianist. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Robertson, of Alhambra Circle, gave a small informal party Saturday night for the Davies. * Miss Elizabeth Giersch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard F. Giersch, Jr., of 1538 Avenue Mendavia, has as her guest this week Miss Elizabeth Leffler of Sanford, neice of Mrs. John Murrell, of Miami. The girls, seniors next year and known all over the "Tally" campus as Peepsie and Bethy, popular Pi Phis, have been widely entertained during Miss Leffler's stay. Parties included a dinner Saturday at the D. L. Schroeder-ville, Jr., in Miami, swim dances at the Hollywood Beach Hotel, and at the Quarterdeck Club, and attendance at the dance Dr. and Mrs. Lowman F. Ashe gave Saturday. * Willard. M Ware is one Gableite who manages to pack a lot of travel miles into a short space and have a lot of fun doing it. He returned Friday by plane from a trip which included—"time out"—at Jacksonville, New Orleans, Jackson, Miss., Shreveport, La., East Texas, back to New Orleans, then to Norco, La., and home all within four days—that's flying ... Incidentally, Mr. Ware was on the Eastern airliner that was grounded about two months ago at Vero Beach. * Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Cater and their daughter, Miss Loreeta Cater and Mrs. Cater's mother, Mrs. L. D. Gamble, of 2718 Alhambra Circle, left Monday for their summer home in Cornelia, Ga., where they will stay until September. Miss Cater graduates next June from Ponce de Leon High School ... Also leaving Monday for a month's vacation were Mrs. L. E. Westerdahl and daughters, Betty, Jane and Ruth of 1271 Ferdinand Street. They'll visit mostly in Tennessee, Nashville, Memphis, Jackson, also Atlanta. * Mrs. Carrie N. Jackson, long time resident of Coral Gables at 330 Avenue Sarto and prominent in musical circle, gave her friends quite a surprise with her marriage June 7 to Richard P. Gilligan of Lexington, Mass. The wedding took place at Jacksonville and followed a whirlwind courtship of a few months. The couple will live in Lexington where Mr. Gilligan is engaged in the manufacture of vitamine products. * Miss Blanch Munford Sinclair, formerly of Newport News, Va., will be the house guest next week of Mr. and Mrs. Roderick McCullough Thomas of Avenue Obispo ... Miss George Sherman left Sunday for New York City, where she will spend about a month, Mr. Kinsman will go North about the first of August and will meet Mrs. Kinsman in Brevard, N. C., where they will pick up their son, "Chuck", attending Greenville Camp at Cedar Mountain, N. C. Miss Abigail Gilday, principal of the Coral Gables Elementary School, and her sister, Miss Margaret Gilday, left Monday for Boston, Mass., where they will spend two months. * Mrs. F. Boice Miller of 637 Avenue Aledo, entertained her bridge club on Tuesday at the Country Club of Coral Gables for luncheon and cards. The Millers and their young son, Frederick, have just returned from a month's vacation in Ohio. * Word comes of the marriage, June 25th, in Milwaukee of Thomas Morgan Turner, Jr., and Miss Elizabeth Mary Beck, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. August Charles Beck of Milwaukee ... Tom Turner and Millard P. Comstock, who left this week to teach flying in Canada, were two of the boys uncovered here by us four years ago, well remembered among the younger set.

Woman's Club Group Gets Together

The International Relations committee of the Coral Gables Woman's Club has continued its activities despite the closing of the club year. Today at one p. m. Mrs. George R. E. Williams will entertain the members with a luncheon at her home, on Venetian Way, Miami Beach. In May, Mrs. Frank Cary was hostess to the committee at luncheon at her home at 1106 Avenue Asturia. At this meeting Madame Elizabeth Anatova and Marianne von Allish were special guests. The latter told the committee something of her work as a sculptor, and the difficult and intricate work of glass blowing. The following week the members of the committee and their husbands were entertained at a reception given by Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Ferguson (Madame Anatova) at Modernage, Miami Beach to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Mrs. Ferguson's coming to America from Russia. About 70 guests enjoyed a real Russian party with music and dancing. Early in June, Mrs. I. W. England invited the committee to her home on Avenue Menores for tea and an inspection of her beautiful gardens containing many unusual fruit trees and flowers. The next affair was a tea given by Mrs. Stewart Thomas at her home on Conquistador Parkway. The committee was greatly intrigued by the revelations of A. M. Zeigler on the government happenings as disclosed by the stars. The last event was the luncheon given by Mrs. E. E. McCarty at her home on Avenue Zamora. Afterwards Miss Mary Merritt of the University of Miami, gave some interesting sidelights on the sustained cultural activities of England in art and literature even in these tragic times. Mrs. Paul Read, who spent ten years in Japan, having returned less than four years ago, told the committee her impressions of the conditions and character of the Japanese during her residence. Later on the hostess put the knowledge of the committee to a test by an intensive quiz on world affairs. The members of the committee who have enjoyed these lovely affairs are Mrs. O. P. Rogers, chairman; Mmes Frank Cady, Stewart Thomas, E. E. McCarty, Sydney Moore, H. Garfunkel, I. W. England, William Fuller and Clarence Wadsworth Francis.

SENIOR GIRLS AT DUKE VISITED BY MOTHERS

Miss Virginia Seymour, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Seymour, 1122 Avenue Palermo, and Miss Beth Shaw, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Shaw of Miami, both seniors next year at Duke University, Durham, N. C., were visited by their respective mothers this past two weeks. Miss Seymour is attending summer school and Miss Shaw, after having her tonsils removed at the university clinic, is convalescing in the Carolina mountains. Both Miss Shaw and Miss Seymour, who will graduate next year, have been schoolmates since their Shenandoah junior high school days.
