NANCY WYNNE SEES SOCIETY GOING
CHURCHWARD MOST OF THE DAY
Last Days of Lent Are Spent More Thoughtfully by the
Many Persons Who Compose Society This
I" Afternoon Will See Seashore Exodus
MOST every one will spend some part
of the day's 12 hours In church
during this Inst most solemn time of
Lent, and then Easter Joy will come In
with the flitting toward the sea of
beaux and belles, sires and dames, and
who shall say that "Solomon In all Ills
glory" was ever nrinycd as will ho the
participants In the Knstcr parade on
the great Wooden Way of Atlantic City.
IF only this weather continues, and It
seems ns If It might! Think of last
Easter morning, when we all awoke to
see a blanket of snow moie than a foot
deep In some places over the giound.
Stilt, that Is not likely to happen this
season, fbr It Is a whole fortnight later
than last year; about nil one could have
to fear would be an April shower. Such
old lovers of the "City by the Sea" as
Mrs. Jason Waters have 'gone down
from New York for the Easter season;
the Princess Plgnatetll d'Aragon. In
other words, rtuth Waters, Is already
there with her mother, and her twin sis
ter, Mrs. tion Gatlns, will go down later
with her father nnd Join the family
party. t
Unusual enthusiasm was aroused at
tho luncheon at the Hotel Adclphla
yesterday noon by those Interested In
tho assembling of a citizens' army of
4$1000 soldiers, tho chief work of which
la being done by tho Drexel Hlddlo
"rookies." A number of well-known
women and men were In attendance and
plans were arranged for tho campaign
for tho half million of dollars which It
Is hoped to talse for tho cost of tho
army.
Many women have arrnnged to cap
tain teams who will collect tho noney.
Several of tho most ardent have nlrencly

Mrs. A. J. Drcxcl Riddle. Mrs. William
Richard Taylor and others. Mrs. E. T.
Stotesbury, it was announced, has sig
nified her Intention of becoming a mem
ber of tho Executives Committee.
Is all tho world going Shakcspcaio
crazy? It seems so, and yet his Im
mortal nnme and fame should suicly bo
celebrated on this year, the tercentenary
of his death. One of tho most Interest
ing affairs to be given for this occasion
will be the festival which has been got
ten up by the Philadelphia Commltteo
for tho Shakespearo tercentenary, and

has written an ode specially for tho ter
centenary, will read it at tho time. Then,
besides this, a chorus of 200 women,
chosen from tho Mahler Symphony
chorus, under tho direction of Henry
Gordon Thunder, will sing, nnd mem
bers of tho Philadelphia Orchestra will
contribute music Incidental to Shakes
peare plays.
