"tnciETT Is Interested once more In
Q the coming Pony Show to bo given
on the grounds 01 air. ana mrs. win mm
j clothier's country home In Wynne
eod on Wednesday, May 24, from H
o'clock In tho morning until 7 o'clock
at night. The proceeds will go to the
fceneflt of the Polyclinic Hospital, and as
M Is tho alternate year In which thoso
interested In the Institution nsslst at the
show, Mrs. Clothier, who has worked so
unceasingly over tho affair, will be aided
by a bevy of society maids and matrons.
jL number of new features will be added
to this year's show, ao It really promises
to outdo any of tho previous entertain
ntcnts, and, believe- me, they have- been
ftine shows!
1 Promptly at ll o'clock tho dog show,
wherein prizewinners and other arlsto
J cratlo young animals aro to bo exhibited,
' will be opened under tho direction of
Mrs. Clothier assisted by Mrs. Edward
Florens Itlvlnus. And at 2 o'clock tho
pony show, tho delight of tho futuro
beaux and belles, will bo In full swing.
j(tSh Victor C. Mather will assist Mrs.
Clothier with tho pony classes. A
bazaar with nil kinds of lovely things
will bo another feature, while for tho
special enjoyment of llltlo girls who do
not possess pot ponies or dogs a de
I cldedly now attraction will be the doll
show, whero many llttlo "mothers" will
, proudly exhibit their glass-oycd babies.
Luncheon will bo served nt small tables
arranged on tho lawn. Tho following
are a few of those who will assist: Mrs.
Herbert Clark, Mrs. William M. Elkins,
Jlrs. Harold A. Sands, Mrs. William II.
Nicholson, Mrs. Gnrdner Cassatt and
Miss Angela Nallo,
What an active and untiring person
Mrs. Holllster Sturgcs Is. Hero she Is,
one of tho Interested matrons In tho
rummago salo for the Jefferson Hospital,
which Is to bo held In tho Wldenor
Building next week. Mrs. Sturges Is to
be In chargo of tho enko and candy
table nnd Is most enthusiastic on tho
subject. This part of tho bazaar Is under
tho direction of tho social service de
partment. The fair dames nnd damsels
who will prcsldo over this tablo are ask.
Ing their friends to send In the candy
and other edibles on Wednesday, Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday mornings so
that thoy may bo disposed of as "Just
fresh mado" each day. Among tho
women who will grace this tablo aro
Mrs. Frnnklln Baker, Miss Ethel Elkins,
Mrs. Mitchell Hastings, Miss Allco
Echocttle, Jlrs. Alba Johnson, Mrs. Wal
lace Cralglo and some others who have
not yet definitely accepted.
The third performance of tho Ballet
Russo last night drew a crowded house,
although I must confess It was not an
overenthuslastlc one. Mrs. Charles H.
Howell occupied her regular box, and
entertained In honor of her son-in-law
and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Gutlllacm
Aertsen, Jr., who have only Just re
turned from their wedding trip. Then
the Sydney Emlen Hutchlnsons, with
their guests, Including tho Gerald Hols
mans, tho Edward Florens Rlvlnuses
and tho Sam Bells, filled two boxes. Tho
ArtHur Leas also entertained, nnd tho
Eddie Cassatts and tho Harry Harts
Were there. I noticed a. number of other
P people seated In tho orchestra, among
tnem tne cnaries l'enroses, witn their
i; daughter Sarah; also Jean Thompson,
Eleanor Hopkins and Katherlne Ogden.
i
Onco moro the voice of tho measles 13
v heard In the land and they aro upon
us, and many of the most attractive
matrons of the Main Lino nrp quaran
tined with their kiddles and missing lots
pf the good works on hand. Sirs.
Mahlon Hutchinson's son, Mahlon.Jr., I
believe, is attacked, and no less a person
ago than the George Emlen Starr's baby,
W but he Is about over tho disease. Mrs.
Richard Norton, of Ardmore, too, who Is.
so Interested In tho MI-Cnremo party for
the St. Nicholas Day Nursery on Mon
day, won't be able to bo thero after all,
for measles have appeared in her
domain as well. Nevertheless the spring
Is here, even If It did snow last April 3.

Last night the Ballet retimed with the

nnd nltitude of Its greatest triumphs It
had. for the racial material In which It
adds revelation of new things to revelation
of old nnd who shall sa which Is more

one fancies that the Ballet Russo Is here
to Interpret Russia to us, but the fact Is
that In this piece, ns In "Solclt de Nult"
nnd In "Prince Igo." they do reveal to us
how a grent nation lives In tho moments

Moro popular by far, though not so

but tho newer troupe could not capturo

Tchcrnlchcwn, could equal the unearthly
lightness, tho freedom nnd the grnco of
Pavlowa. Tho flgurlngs of the ballet were
beautiful, the total effect pleasing But
since Dlaghllcff has made a virtue of tho
vitalized ballet, ho cannot make an equal
virtue of the archaic. "Lcs Sylphldes"
