Nancy Wynne Hears Plans for Bryn Mawr Horse Show in Sep
' tcmber Large Ball at Narragansett Pier for
' -r Kerf Cross Enter Gladys
T HEATt that the British-American war
relief fund and the Bryn Mawr Hospital
are to be th.- beneflclarlea of the hocond
Bryn Mawr War Horse Show on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, September ID, 20 and
"II. Mrs. Robert 13. Straw brhlse, executive
chairman of the show, has announced all
kinds of Interesting plans. On the llrst
day of the hhow, Thursday, there will ba
a dog show with ho many c'utscs that they
Will Include all bleeds of dogs. That will
be pleasing to a great m my people, be
cause I think most of those who love
horses are Just as fond of doss, don't you?
Friday will be filled with the events of a
gymkanmi for youngsters of all ages. Mrs.
John A. Conveise will have this feature of
the show under her direction and promises
L-that it will be an exciting day. TheVe will
Be all kinds of stunts, Including, of course,
the potato and egg races, that are nlw.ivs
0 amusing, and In addition to the games
there will be mule racing. That surely w'll
be worth seeing. Saturday will be Military
Day, and on account of the title, as well
as the fact that Jt Is the last day, will
probably be the biggest day of the show.
There will be contests In the tan oval
among American, French and British olTi.
cers, In which they will display their ex
cellence In horsemanship, with jumping
contests both within the ring and over
the outside course and you know that's
going to bo something to see. And It's not
ail either, for theie will be one event for
pairs of jumpers, one horse to be ridden by
l a lady and the other by an offlcrr In uni
form. This Is something very unusu 1.
and the committee expects to see It well
fiUed.
The horse show committee, which In
cludes Dr. Thomas G. Ashton, Mr. Chalk's
E. Coxe and Mr. William H. Wninmaki-r,
-Jr., with the assistance of the women who
are on the executive and special commit
tees, have given the show a stiongcr appeal
for children, as special classes have been
arranged for them to enter their ponies
kept as family pets. These ponies will
have classes all to "their little seUes,"
the regular show ponies will not be
tnitted Into the sarau classes with
pets. So each youngster who enters
for
his
own special pet will have a fair Chinee
of winning a blue ribbon. Two other special
classes have been added this year, one for
horses best suited for cavalry use, and the
other for horses best suited to artillery use.
British, French and American lemount
officers will be theie to see these competi
tions and it's more than likely that they
1 will buy a few of thenvrlght there on the
spot.
jTHHERE was quite an exciting time in
Narragansett Tier on Saturday. You
know, the Greenwich Village 'Hall was
given then for the benefit of the Red Cross.
'it was held at the Casino, and a miniature
village was built around the grounds. At
midnight a play was given and a pageant
marched through the little village. Mrs.
A-Joseph Bailey Is up there now, visiting the
John C. Norrlsses ut the!" cottage and
Maria Frazer Dougherty also Is sperdlng
",the summer there. Mr. and Mis. William
A. Lleber, of Buttonwood. Iiryn M twr,
have taken a cottage there for the le
malnder of the beason.
T
HE family Is up In Maine for the sum
mer, and father is trylhg to teach the
two children to swim and paddle a canoe
as 'well as he does. You'd know Father
right away If I mentioned ills name, be
'cau8e, aside from even thing else, he made
his name famous at college by getting it on
the Ail-American football team. Marlon,
the daughter. Is nine, and it means nothing
ibut a huge Joke in her young life when
Father picks her up off the edge of the
"'dock and tlv.ows her Into the lake. She
swims back and asks for mote, and Father
beams at the masterful way she wields u
paddle in her own little canoe. But Johnnie
aged six, Is a trial. He will not try to
swim without water wings and the con
''fldence of a nearby helping hand. He howls
twh?n anybody splashes him, and just gen
erally disappoints the fearless .father.
A In desperation one day Father said, "I
hlnk I'll call you Gladys, that's the only
thing to do with a boy that's afraid of
everything," and promptly forgot all about

ner and came scuttling In after ever) body

.all pushed back from his forehead and tied
'in various plicea with ribbons from

Literal acceptance of General Pershing's
request that families write to the men at the
front hB all but swamped the iiiaU'bervlce,
with the result that letters are often a month
or six weeks In transit between Philadelphia
and foreign unlU of the army and navy.
' Mayor Smith's personal service bureau has
received many letteis from Philadelphia sol
dlers, telling of their disappointment on the
nonrecelpt of letters from home. On the
other hand, anxious parents have visited City
Hall to register a similar complaint about the
long delajs In hearing from their boys In the
service.
An Investigation of conditions led to the
discovery that mall for men In foreign Bervlce
has i cached such a volume that It cannot be

Peggy linked up from the newspaper she
was ie..elltic. (in the porch railing befoie her
was piiehul a fat P'gton
"Wc- haven't an.v crumbs We belong to
the patriotic food savers." she answeied
"What's that a new rvcjie for being
stingy?" The Pigeon's saucv answer caused
Peggy's e.ves to flash with indignation.
"Sting, Indeed'" she ivtortei". "We aie
gone i oils to our soldleis and to our Allies
when we guanl every hit of food, so that
they will have all the more"
"But what aie we Pigeons going to do If
ou don't feed u.s?'
Pegg.v thought over that angle of the mat
ter for a moment Then, like a true Yankee,
she answered by asking another question.
"Why don't jou feed out selves9"
"How slllt. We do ford ourselves. We
pick up ihe crumbs th.it people throw lo us "
"Xoiisi use-.' laiel.v lepllei! Peggv, who was

thing?" The Pigeon drew Itself up haughtily
and fluffed out its feathers
t "Homer and Carrie Pigeon find plenty to
cat and are serving the country by gobbling
up crop-ruining pests on Farmer Dalton's
farm," answered Peggy, warmly,
"Oh, they aie common country Pigeons,"
sneered the Pigeon "They work for a
living "
"And who are jou that you aie above
work?" demanded Peggy.
"Why, I'm Airy Pouter, of the Steeple
Pigeons. We trace our ancestiy back to the
original Blue IJocks. We haven't worked In
years and jeais."
"How do you live, then?" aswed Peggj-.
"We live In a steeple, as befits Birds of
our qualltj-. And we eat only the best of
food, too cake crumbs and bits of bread,
which people who aie not stingy" Airy
Pouter looked disdainfully at Peggy "are
glad to give us for the pleasure our appear
ance gives them,"
"Well, -ou are pretty," admitted Peggy.
"And I used to think It vvaB nice to feed -ou
crumbs and wheat But that was befoie the
war Now we have to ujj; our food for use
ful purposes. Wo can't throw any of it
away Just for fun or to feed lazy ornaments."
She gave Airy Pouter Just as disdainful a
look as ho had given her. "If you were patil
otic, you'd help win the war by helping in
the ' food raising, as the other Birds are
doing." , , . .,
"I don't like war, I'm u pacifist,

so precipilati-lv that Miss Flora wondered,
If she could have said anything to offend

Mr Smith talked next wl'h Mis Jane
Blalsdell Mrs Jain was looking paitn-ul n It
well'that evening Her diess was new. mil

odd to Mr Smith 111 a moment he knew ill
reason; she won- no apron. Mr Smith had
never seen her without an apton before i;ven

Miss Melllcent? Yes. In the distance
She! too. Is looking most charming, Mrs.
Bl.iisdell "
The woman lipped her foot linpatieiillt
"Yes. I know she is and some other folks
think so. too I notice. Was she with that
Pentiock tioj "
"Not when I saw her "
Well, she will be. if she isn't now
He follows her eveijwhere"
"But 1 thought that was broken up" Mr.
Smith now was frowning
"It was You know what that woman said

p'ete the sentent-
Mr Smith laughed
I wouldn't woitv Mis Blaisdell I don't
think he'll make much beadwnj now"
-Indeed be won't If 1 can help injsclf'"
flashed the woman indignantly.
"1 leckem be wont stand much show with
Miss Melllcent afler what's happened"
"I guess be won't." snapped the woman
"He isn't worth half what she is now As
If I'd let her look at him '"
"But I meant " Mr Smith stopped
abruptly. Theie- was an odd expression on
his face
Mrs Blaisdell filled the pause.
"But, really. Mr. Smith I don't know what
1 am going to do w ith Melllcent," she
sighed
"Do with her?"
"Yes She's as wild as a hawk and as
as flighty as a humming-hlrd, since this
money came She's so crazy with Joy and
excited "
"What If she Is'" challenged Mr Smith,
looking suddenly very happy himself. "Youth
is the time for Joy and laughter: and I'm
sine I'm g'ad she is taking a little pleasure
in lite."
Mrs. Blaisdell frowned again
-But Mr. Smith, jou know as well as I do
that life Isn't all pink di esses and sugar
plums It is a serious business, and 1 have
tried to bring hei up to understand It I
have taught her to be thrifty and economical,
ard to icallze the value of a dollar But now
she doesn't see a dollar but what she
wants to spend it What can I do'"
"You aren't sorrj- the money came?" jr
Smith was eying her with a quizzical smale
"Oh, no, no, Indeed"1 Mrs Blalsdell's an
swer was promptly emphatic "And I hope
1 shall be found worthy of the gift, and able
to handle It wisely"
..;r ah you mean " Mr. Smith was
looking slightly taken aback
I mean that I regard wealth hs one of
the greatest of trusts, to be wisely ad
ministered, Mr, Smith," she amplified a bit
importantly
Oh-h!" subsided the man.
"That Is why It distresses me to see my
daughter so carried away with the mere dea
of spending I thought I'd taught her dif
ferently." sighed the woman.
"Perhaps you taught her too well. But
t wouldn't worry," smiled Mr, Smith, as he
turned away-
