Here's what makes this item perfect:
Alma is called Dr. Alma Stokey. Usually in this sort of society page note, she is called Miss Alma Stokey.
Alma and Eva are called "the duo". I like the image of the two sisters facing the world together. I'm not saying it's necessarily an accurate image, I'm just saying I like it.
We learn not just that Alma is here in Atlanta, which would be enough for your average society page item, but also that Alma and Eva going to visit Glady in Miami.
AND the note throws in Alma's "last world tour". Not just "her world tour", but "her last world tour". One of many. (Three, to be precise.) Atlanta society now knows that Dr. Alma Stokey goes around the world at the drop of a hat.
Yes, it's a perfect item.
