car It would ha ha c e to say Bay for almost every ever week eek About this time look l ok out for surprises in m the Gould family That is Just how prolific this rich and prominent American family is in sur- sur surprises surprises sur surprises And the variety of the surprising surprising ing mg things they do is so bewildering so contradictor contradictory in motives cs and results that its it's often hard for an observer to believe e that the men and women omen responsible responsible responsible sible for them arc are all aJl of the same flesh and blood Seldom if ever has there been a II family that continually presented to the world orld as the Goulds have long been doing and still are such a topsy aspect The family's capacity for mental and mora moral somersaults and a complete reversal of e Cr es e i body's predictions seems to have no limits In a short space of time it will run the whole hole gamut of human nature nature emphasizing izing first some of its numer numer- numerous numerous numerous ous excellent qualities and then some of those which most people think not so good In order to understand wh why there is considerable justice in calling the Goulds a topsy family it is only necessary to consider the widely Idely different ways in which some of them have lately been figuring in the ne news nes s r rIn In his luxurious villa on the Riviera George J Gould

a life of quiet domesticity and devotion to various philanthropic works fr Like her brother Edwin Edn she furnishes s the world orld with surprises by the marked contrast which her life supplies to

there is the new generation of Goulds many of whom are already old enough to contribute their share of surprises sur- sur surprises an and help 1 make their family look more topsy topsy than ever GeorgeJ All the numerous children of George J 3 Gould are married with the exception tion of Miss Gloria who reigns in soli- soli solitary tary state as liS the mistress of the great family mansion on
