THE WOMAN'S PAGE OF THE PLAIN DEALER, APRIL 13TH, 1923 JOLLY PARTY IN SURPRISE VISIT AT RANCH HOME A BELATED birthday surprise was "inflicted" upon Mr. Sam Whitaker last evening when a large company of his friends from Santa Ana went to the Andrews ranch west of Anaheim to pass an informal evening in jolly games. The important date was March 21, but other events occurring at that time made the postponement advisable and the affair lost none of its joy by waiting. Having been told that some callers were coming in for the evening, the honoree was induced to drop his "uniform of toil" of the day and was awaiting the call when a crowd, of 30 came. His surprise was apparent, but the courtesy appreciated. After congratulations and greetings, and presentation of several useful gifts, games were played which turned back the clock for several years, and fruit basket, spin the plate and similar games were heartily enjoyed. Plano and victoria music also gave pleasure. The commodious rooms were fragrant with the bouquets of red and white roses and the dining table in an adjoining room was centered with a basket of mixed everlasting flowers. A collection of brick ice cream and various varieties of cakes were served by Mrs. Andrews, assisted by several of the guests. Participating in the happy gathering were the Messrs and Mesdames Leo Kauenzahn, Virton Barrows, S. E. Eation, E. G. Summers, L. T. Clea, Robert Shearm, Harry Blackburn, Rev. and Mrs. H. C. Basney, and the Misses Ruth and Ora Cartwell, Ella Blackburn, the Mesdames Viuau, and Walker, all of Santa Ana, Mrs. Harriet Boyd, Anaheim; Mrs. COSTUMES AND PETS MATCH IN NEWEST MODES By HARRY R. FLORY (L. N. S. Staff Correspondent) NICE, April 13.—In order to be well dressed on the Riviera this season my lady must have pets to match her pets. Perhaps the most striking example of the newest idea in style is the "patron" costume, worn by a middle-aged woman frequently seen on the promenades and terraces. The gown, hat and parasol are all of the same green flowered material, and the earrings are of jade to match. This costume can be worn only in the early morning or late afternoon, when the sun is low in the sky. At those times the parasol can be carried at an angle just rakih enough to afford protection from the sun, but still at just the right slant to allow the pet parrot to perch contentedly on the handle. For midday strolls, when the sun is burning hot, a white poodle is favored, its mistress wearing a white gown, shoes, hat and parasol. For early evening promenades more tombre colors make their appearance—brown gown and jace jewelry matching a brown chow dog, for example. If milady's favorite pet happens to be a marinette costume, usually is trimmed in monkey fur. If it be a fox the neckpiece is usually of fox fur. Dealers in pets are doing a rush business, for the really smart dresser now must have a menagerie. Orthopedic Guild Tonight The local Orthopedic Guild of the Los Angeles Orthopedic Hospital school will hold a meeting this evening in suite 1, Central-bulldg, 107½ East Center-st. The letters containing one dollar bills, circulated several weeks ago, for the purpose of accumulating other bills and belting returned to the school, have brought good returns, although the complete report is not yet available. Business matters will be discussed this evening and it is hoped a further representation of the organization will be present at the meeting. Shop Needs Clothes The demand for clothes is again exceeding the supply at the Community shop. The number of American patrons is increasing each week and garments of all kinds to supply the class of trade is needed. As the committee from the shop has no way of getting the contributions they may depend upon the donors to deliver bundles for which they are very grateful. The shop on South LA Angeles remains open each Wednesday and Friday afternoon and is able ways in charge of a capable committee.

J. 138 West Center Street PAGE REPORT MATHILDE McCORMICK WEDDED LONDON, April 13.—Miss Mathilde McCormick, 18 year old granddaughter of John D. Rockefeller, and Major Max Oser, middle-aged Swiss riding master, to whom she has been engaged for more than a year, were secretly married in London yesterday. International News Service was reliably informed this afternoon. The couple are reported to have left for some unknown destination to spend their honeymoon. Mathilde became of age last week, and friends understood she was merely awaiting her 18th birthday before marrying. Major Oser and Mathilde were said to have called unexpectedly upon friends in London last night and excitedly announced that they had just been married under a special license. They rufeeded to say what service performed the ceremony. The couple left soon afterward, saying they were starting upon their honeymoon. Both Oser and Mathilde threw a veil of secrecy about the reported nuptials. They were as discretely silent as they have been throughout their romance. Asked who performed the ceremony, both Mathilde and Oser shook their heads in the negative and triple tragedy motive unknown LODI, Calif., April 13.—Officers investigating the murder of S. M. Joslin, wealthy grape grower, and Mrs. E. V. Maurier, a cook employed on his ranch six miles south here, and the suicide of Joseph Metti, thought to have killed Joslin and Mrs. Maurier, have been unable to arrive at the motive which caused the triple tragedy. The bodies of Joslin and his cook were found inside the ruphouse and that of Metti, outside Joslin is believed to have been killed first. Metti had blown the top of his head off with a shotgun. simplified. They refused also to give the names of the witnesses. International News Service had received a report that Mathilde was visiting friends. A search of Weybridge, however, failed to reveal her whereabouts. Under British regulations it would have been necessary for Mathilde to register her name with the police authorities if she intended to stay any length of time in Weybridge, but the police authorities had no record of her. The Welbridge postal authorities said that no mail had been received addressed to Mathilde McCormick.
