I think. It's to bo out of doors If the weather permits, nncl If not the house will bo thrown open to the guests. Also, It's to be different from the usual fetes of the summer bo far. In that It Is not a fair, nor a inustcalc. nor a garden party, but Monsieur Carlo I.ltcn, the great Belgian tragedian, will make his, first ap pearance In this city at that time unci will give an afternoon of delightful recital. Included among the recitations will be Camaert'a great modern poem, "La Caril lon," accompanied by the violin obligato by Mr. I.uclus Cole, of the Philadelphia Orchestra. The whole affair Is given"1 under tho auspices of the French war-relief com mittee of the Emergency Aid, and It's all to be "au profit des Kefugtca de France." The cards of admission are dcllclously French, all gotten up In that language tilt It comes to saying that It's the French war-relief committee. They read as follows: "Premiere audition do grand tragrdlen Helge Carlo Llten, dans un repertoire moderne. Sur la pelouso de Deepdene chcz Monsieur et Madame Gideon Boerlckc a Vynncuool, Pa.

The little leaflet which was published, to gether with the Invitations to this charm ing affair, tells us that "Carlo Llten re minds us of Sarah Bernhardt in the wont derful dramatic 'beauty of his volco and of Sir Henry Irving by his art In creating an atmosphere around each of his Interpre tations." It will be a delightful affair, without doubt, and certainly the French and Bel gians of this city, besides our own citizens, will flock to hear the great man. Ice cream, 'strawberries and lemonade will bo sold on the grounds, but outside of that there will be no booths nor salablo articles as at most fetes. The patronesses Includo Mrs. Boerlckc, Mrs. F.

One after another of her blrdllngs are flying from the home nest, and of six children only little Sarah Is left, or rather will be left, in a short time, for Phoebe's engagement to young John Weir Sargent, of New York and Connecticut, was announced yester day. And do you know that makes four engagements and three weddings In tho Downs family in very little more than one year? First, Bessie, who came out the season before war was declared, became engaged to Rowland Evans and was married In a short time. Then Norton married Alice Thompson and McKean married Anne Mer rick. Both men and the third brother, Warren, are in Europe with the expedi tionary forces, and now with Phoebe en gaged, you see, there'll be nobody home but Sarah. Sarah, however. Is a mighty sweet per son and will help to make up for the lone liness of the others nil being away. And besides, there has been no definite date set for Phoebe's wedding yet. Phoebo Just graduated last year from St. Mary's-on-tlie-Hudsoi), the Episcopal Convent School, which has become so popular among the girls of this city. Ella Brock Du Barry went there and so did Elizabeth Thompson Drexel, and Bessie Downs Evans, and Alva Sergeant, and Just lots of others. Gcrtrudo Conaway just graduated from there this year. Young Sargent Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Sargent. His mother was Miss Louise Weir. They have u country home in Pino Orchard, Conn., and spend most of their winters in Now York. I hear he is very attractive. - DID you see what the wee small bird saw the other day and told mo about after ward? They were standing In Broad Street , Station, waiting for tho gate to open, and evidently when It did open either he or sho would have to depart, for they were both looking pretty sad about it. And, as the sign over the gate told that the train was bound for tho South, tho aforementioned bird concluded that HE had enlisted and was on his way to a training' camp. Well, In a few minutes Friend Gate slid ' open with a viciously efficient bang, and In a few more minutes he picked up his suit case and was about to say good-by. He did look awfully forlorn when he looked at, her and realized that he probably wouldn't ,ee her for months to come (and you would be, too, for she was mighty sweet In her mart blue suit and close-fitting hat). And ihe well, It didn't 'exactly appear as If this was" the-happlest moment of her life. In Just a very little while the train would leave and he with It. bo when she looked at him and realized that, .why, guess what ihe did. She gave a hurried little glanco all around to see If anybody was looking '. nrt thenl (she. hadn't seen the wi s. bird) I she Ulted her head up and gave him p. i quick little kiss. And then he left, but you . jean be 'pos-1-tlve-lee" suro lie looked a l - whale lot brighter and happier than a '- 1 moment before,.

POLICEWOMEN AT CAMPS Connecticut Hits Seven of Them With Complete Authority Connecticut was the first Stato to give complete authority to policewomen, accord ing to a statement made by Dr. Valerie H. Parker, of Hartford, chairman of the health iyid recreation committee of the committee on sanitation ami medicine, of the Connecti cut Council of Defense. Connecticut now has seven policewomen to look after women in camp neighborhoods and Doctor Parker acts as supervisor. "The v Ico problem has not been Increased to any particular extent by the fact that sol diers are encamped In the State," said Doc tor Parker. "We are, however, cognizant of the dangeis of camp life to youth and are taking measures for protection. Supervised recreation activities have been Introduced Into camp districts as one of the greatest remedial agents, giving, as they do, proper outlet for energy and healthful diversion." Doctor Parker Is on the board of directors.

Instead of tho expensive sheaves of daisies or roses the girls will wear only ono flower anil the simplest of graduation dresses. Tills Is only one phaso of the conservation pro gram that has been rigorously adopted at the Kensington High School. MIsm Beulah Fennlmore, principal of the school, has brought n auggestion to Mrs. Henry I). Jump, chahinan of tho Philadel phia County woman's committee of the Coun cil of National Defense, that a unit based on the working principle of the Philadelphia committee bo organized In Kensington, with herself as chairman. So far no such unit has been organized, but Miss Fennlmore asserts that the desire for one Is great among Kensington women and has pledged herself to bring in at least 100' members. Miss Fcnnlmore's request has been accepted, and within tho next few weeks meetings will bo held and the work of organ izing will he got under way Most nf the girl students of the school will lie members of the new unit. Already the girls have hail much experience In war work, whlih has been virtually a part of the school curriculum. "There H hardly a branch of women's war work that has not been taken up here," said Jllss Fennlmore. "Tho school baa been a sort of unrecognized emergency aid. Ev pcclally has the Importance of conservation been Impressed on the pupils. They aro leaving school at a time when they must realize that even a little extravagance, so readily condoned In women and so easily practiced, must be rigidly avoided. The matter of the graduation (lowers and dresses was a little thing. I simply put It up to the girls. They lost no tinie In deciding that at this time, when money is being pleaded for by hungry Allied nations and at every street corner for the tremendous war needs of this nation, to throw away a good many dollars on something perfectlyworthless was not the best way to advertise the training they have been given litre."

How land Shaw GOVERNMENT HAS WOOL TO KEEP KNITTERS BUSY Red Cross Classes Have Plenty of Work for Vacationers' Idle Hours Although the difficulty In getting wool at the stores Is Increasing steadily, the Govern ment supply is still largo enough to give any one who Is knitting In khaki or navy blue all they can manage. There Is a tremendous lot of knitting to be done this summer In preparation for the winter, ahd the Ited Cross classes have work enough on hand to supply many summer vacationers with occupation for the long, Idle hours. The knitting bag is too familiar a sight to be noticed now on the trolleys and trains ; women and children have completely mas tered the art of the needles, the subtleties of the heel that must be turned. So far as eockmaklug Is concerned" the machine Is rapidly displacing the four needles, except In cases where the personal touch Is peculiarly desirable, when a dropped stitch conveys only the tenderest meaning and a Jacob's ladder after the first wearing calls forth only a gentle melancholy Instead of fantastic language from one of the bos. Free wool Is offered at most of the clubs, and by the Emergency Aid. when a donation makes it possible, and fo those who wish to offer more than their time, wool Is for sale at cheapen prices than last ear. Besides the IitUtlon-wlde army of knitters, to which virtually every woman In the coun try belongs, most of the clubwomen In the city are enrolled as workers for the war. The spirit of concentrated and relentless activity has grown steadily, and organizations for the countless different: branches for war work are running smoothly and with steadily Increas ing efficiency without any signs of that effi ciency and activity slackening during the hot summer months. The general spirit Is simply that "there is work to be done now, and every one must do it." Women who once perhaps hardly knew what' a roll-top desk or a sjiapcr file looked like are down at their offices by 0 In the morning regularly. The day la a long, weari some round of committee meeting, discus sion, letter writing and planning, knitting, bandage making, sawing, without the prospect of,lhe thought of the usual summer delights, ns. for example, the club porch and the sum mer dances and the tennis and swimming, The realization has come, home, lastingly and effectively, that America Is in "a state of war." Eternal Triangle on Ostrich Farm "Widows arc responsible for many a man's troubles, but now the emu are developing the dangerous practice," said Sergeant Mc (Jee, of the San Francisco park police. "It Is the case of the eternal triangle, and it's all on account of that ostrich Don Juan " As the plot runs, before the arrival of Don Juan, Evangeline was a sorrowing, wall ing widow. However, on the arrival of the gay young bird Evangeline began to primp up, aiming directly to gain the young and handsome Don Juan. Although handicapped, because an emu Is not gifted with feathers as beautiful as au ostrich, Evangeline soon had Don Juan following her everywhere. Even the competition of Psjche arid Helen, the two maiden ostriches, failed to alter his attraction Not wishing trouble, the park authorities separated the two birds by a fence. But love will find a way, and Don Juan nearly lost his life locating the route. He was foimd one morning half way through the rail ings and It was a plumber's Job to extri cate him. The next day a heavy wire pro tector was nailed to the fence, Evangallne keeps meandering up and down the tenet, pretending not to care.

Learn to Open a Book Modern Bookbinding gives some practical hints on how to open a new volume: Hold the book. It says, with Its back on n smooth or covered table; let the front cover down, then the other, holding tho leaves In one hand while you open a few leaves at the back, then a few at the front, and so on, alternately opening back and front, gently pressing open the sections till you reach the center of the volume Do this two or three times and sou will obtain the best results. Open the volume violently or carelessly In any one place lyid you will likely break the back and cause a start In the leaves. Never force the back of the book. It tells a story also of a connoisseur who thought he knew how to handle books. "He came." sas a publisher, "into my ofllce when 1 had an expensive binding Just brought from the bindery ready to be sent home; he, be fore my eyes, took bold of the volume and tightly holding the leaves In each hand, in stead of allowing them free play, violently opened It In the center and exclaimed; "How beautifully your bindings open," He had broken the back of the volume and It had to be rebound," SUFFRAGE ACTION URGED Penne)lvania Association Protest Delay in Senate Congressional District Croup No. 1 of the Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage Association, lomposed of representatives of the six con gressional districts In Philadelphia County, jesterday adopted a resolution protesting against the delay In bringing the Federal suffrage amendment to a vote In the Senate, The resolutions were sent to Senators Pen rose and Knox.
