Mrs Heriot's beautiful schooner is the former yacht of William II. On Sunday the yachtwomen gave a tea there which brought together all the top of the basket of the sailing circle. It was not a five o'clock tea, because the charming hostess who steered in the regatta arrived on board around seven o'clock. As Mrs Heriot does things well, many were content to taste and dine.

A head dinner was held this week at the home of Prince and Princess Poniatoski at the Hyowava villa which belongs to the Countess of Ste Aldegonde, mother of the princess.

Who said that there were no excursions to do by car in the Arcachon area??? Those are the ones who have not read Terre d'Amour, by Guy de Pierrefeux.

We know that the fashion is to invade the pastry shops after select masses. This is why the Moulleau pastry shop is too small on Sundays at ten thirty, which made the witty mayor of Bordeaux say: "Is it before mass that we should come here?" Because we would then go to Church to be forgiven for our sin of gluttony.

On Thursday evening, a fire broke out in a small chalet located on Cours Desbiey, opposite the Massart establishment. Thanks to the prompt arrival of the firefighters, only three rooms were damaged.
