JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Several Entertainments Given for Mr. and Mrs. Holstcin-Fox.
Tableaux Tonight Under French War Committee's Aus
' pices Party at School of Design This Evening
IT SEEMS to mo that tho little Klapp
brlda In other words, Kllse Klnpp
Fox Is having a wonderful tlmo theso
days. I seem to bo hearing about party
after party given In her honor. It does
seem as It we can now go back for a bit
to tho days before tho war, when a bride
or a debutante was entertained and many
quiet, happy llttlo parttes wero given. This
evening Mrs. Alexander M. Fox, Jr., will
glvo a dinner In honor of Holstetn and
Elise at her home. 2008 Spruce street.
Ellse, you remember, Is the daughter of
Dr. and Mrs. Wilbur Taddock Klapp. She
came out the early summer of 1917, before
we got so well Into the war. Her engage
ment to young Mr. Fox waa announced last
winter and they wero married recently.
The (Junior Harrison Caners entertained
for them last week" and Gladys Williams
also gavo a party for them. Gladys Is
Ellse'a cousin.
IF YOU should ask me about It, I should
say that these tableaux tonight at the
Bellevue are going to bo well worth seeing.
They are "staged," you know, by the
French war relief committee of the Emer
gency Aid, and Leopold Seyffert and Ar
thur Carles havo arranged the poses and
"nxlngs." They are all well-known pic
tures, like Mrs. Slddons, which Alll be rep
resented by Mrs. Sidney Brock; Fran
cesca's "Unknown Lady," who Is really
very well known as Mrs. Joei Du Barry;
tho Spanish Dancers, by Zuloga, who will
be Katharine Lea and Mary Law, and
Goya's "Balcony Scene," by Mrs. Nicholas
Itoosevelt and Dorothy New bold. Mrs.
Gardner Cassatt will bo "France." There's
to be interpolated (I like that word) singing
by Mr. Raymond, of tho "Better 'Ole" com
pany, and there Is also to bo a picture of
the Mad Tea Party from "Allco In Won
derland." If that was the only plcturo
they had I could find It In my heart to go
Just to sit there and pick out all the dif
ferent people. The Hatter and Allco, of
course, will be easy, but the March Hare!
And who do you suppose will take the part
of the Dormouse?
Alva Sergeant, Theodora Lllllo and Elsa
Heath Appleton are going to do a danoo
which ought to be pretty, to Judge by tho
grace and ability of those three girls. And
then, of course, there Is to bo general
dancing and supper If you want It. Tho
affair Is under the direction of Mrs. Maurice
Heckscher, Miss Slnkler, Mrs. R. H. Bayard
Bowie, Mrs. Gardner Cassatt, Mrs. Roose
velt, Mrs. George Blddle, Jr., Ellon Mary
Cassatt, Harriet Frazler, Mrs. S. Bonsai
Brooks and Gertrude Heckscher. The
proceeds, of course, are for French war
relief, and in this case that means the
tuberculous children of soldiers of France.
TONIGHT there's the fete called "The
Land of Pleasure" at the Philadelphia
School of Design. That Is, tonight I J the
first performance, and It's to bo repeated
tomorrow afternoon and ovenlng. It's for
tho support of the French war orphans
adopted by the school, and also for the
maintenance of the fellowship of the
alumnae association. I believe U Is to be
one of those extensive affairs where you
walk all over the place and at every step
you come upon something elso that's Inter
esting or pretty or unusual or something, j
There's to be exhibition dancing uy t-am-aHne
Wharton Morris1, Doris Mills, Dorothy
Gute and Eva Smith. Then, Mrs. Beryl Morse
Green, who Is from New York, will ,make
pastel portraits "while you wait." I can't
imagine making a portrait under any con
ditions, but to make one while the "por
trayee" waits around and watches seems
utterly beyond comprehension. However,
Mrs. Green will do It. And she can, too.
Gipsies will be there to tell your fortune.
And Toyland, with all kinds of attractive
things; and a Japanese tea room, where
students of the school will serve tea. Of
course, they will all be in costume. I hear
that there Is an Interesting collection of
war relics, Including a ring donated by Mrs.
Edouard Lutz, which was made by a pollu
in the trenches out of a piece of shrapnel
from the battlefield of the Champagne.
Sketches by well-known artists belonging
to the school will be on exhibition, too.
Then there's to be "Jitney dancing." what
ever that is, from 9 to 11 tonight and from
3 to 6 on Saturday afternoon.
i Miss Ethel Solomon Is chairman and the
aides Include Charlotte Colhoun, Margaret
Snowden, Juanlta Sauveur, Marlon Thom
son, Pearl Alman, Paulette Van Roekens,
Florence Bradway, Margaret Mayes, Doro
thy Wilson, Elva Shegog, Ruth Patton,
Alta Mearkle and others. The patronesses
are Mrs. Edwin Owen Lewis, Mrs. Kern
Dodge, Mrs. James Mapes Dodge, Mrs. Har
rison S. Morris, Miss Emily Sartaln, Mrs.
Herbert D. " Allman, Mrs. Theodore C.
Knauff, Mrs. William Powell Wilson, S. C.
V.; Mrs. J. Edouard Lutz, Mrs. Eugene J.
McAleer and Mrs. William Hollar.
THEY were coming home from New
York and there was a hot box or some
thing and the train waa held up for more
than an hour. Every one was bored to
death and Just sat there mad. Father and
mother and small daughter were on that
train, and daughter, who was three years
old a couple of days before Christmas, Is
talking very plainly these days. Oh, very,
plainly!
.While they were waiting In that nllent
car a local train passed by. Daughter
turned and looked long out of, the window
until the whole train had passed. Then
she turned thoughtfully to her mother and
in loud and liquid tones remarked, "Muddy,
there was peoples In that train, By gosh!"
"Why, darling," said the horrified mother,
mid the shrieks of Joy from the car's
occupants; "you must not say that!"
"Daddy say's It," replied daughter, as
Daddy hurriedly, left the car for the smoker.

nlmlr Slcnklcwicz, executive rccretary of the

klewlcz yesterday. "We who have been In

adoption Is tho primary agency In tho move
ment to lift the ancient burdens of his home

The art of modern Illustration, obsened
Joseph 1'ennell, In the rourso of his Illus
trated lecture on "Kngllsh Hook Illustration
In tho Sixties," before tho liilloblhlon Club
last ecnlng, was 'imenlrd In tho same
country as tho British royal family was In
rntcd In Oermnny."
Thn artist showed tho development fnm
the time that Adolf Menzcl Illustrated n llfo
of Trederlclc the CJreat. the drawing-) of
which, lie said, Inspired Dalzlcl nnd Hwnln,
two Ilngllsh wood engravers, to Improve
Illustration In England.
Tho lecturer paid his respects to Thack
eray, who, hn said, wrote about nrt and
thought himself an nrtist, but that 'he made
some of the rottencst drawings nnd got a
grocer's clerk, Krrd Walker, to try to Im
prove them, but Wnlker said he could not
Improve them" u statement with which the
lecturer agreed
The lecturer nlso referred to tho Illustra
tions of one of Trollope's novels nnd pre
dicted that "somo day Trollopo Is going to
be resurrected when pome people lu lluropa
and In this country are forgotten." Ho cited
Tennlel's drawing of the "Mail Tea Tarty"
In "Alice In Wonderland" as ono of the
greatest exninples of British nrt, und he re
ferred to Charles Keen, tho Bunch artist, as
the greatest British nrtist since llognrth.
Toward the close of his remarks Mr. I'cnnell
showed something of Whistler's efforts nt
illustration nnd mentioned with a tinge of
sarcasm that tho Academy of the lino Arts
could hnvo had the great painting, his por
trait of his mother, If some one hero had had
sufllclcnt knowledge to havo bought It. lie
declared that It was offered to the Institu
tion for 11000. but that It could havo been
bought for JS00 nt tho time.
