'About Various Events of Next Week Interesting
f v , Affair Last Evening
TMD jou ever see such a crowd at the first
day o any liorso show as there was out
at Devon yesterday"; 1 was perfectly sur
prised, because, usually tho llrst morning
thero areri't so awfully ninny people out.
31ut yesterday I rnn Into Klizaheth Oritlith
I'nge and .lean Thompson Thajer, who were
Helling chocolate jit the country fair (which
Is most attractive, don't you think hoV), and
Kitty Venn Smith findilng frantically from
ono placo to nnother, and Mrs. Hob Mont
gomery with one of her daujjhtcrs, uud Mrs.
l'nul Denckla Mills with her youngster, nnd
Cecily Barnes, and Hatty (Jr-yclln, and lots
of others, quite carly-i-nndi not one of them
had on a raincoat, cither. They all were
cry dressy.
InEAK that Miriam Knnc U to Iibtc
charge of the bookstore in the Victory
Fete on June 0 at the old Chew house,
Cliveden nnd Upsnl, one oTE tho Johnson
houses out in Germantown, next Friday.
Tho affair is under tho nuspiccs of the
AVomen's Permanent Emergency Associa
tion and tho Nationnl League for AVomen's
Hervlcc, and, as far as I cnfi mnkc out, every
body in Germantown and vicinity, is inter
ested. But' to go back to Mirinm Kane, lou
know she is the daughter of Mr. nnd Mrs.
Kiltrnrd Ar. Kane, of Lincoln drive, (ier-
mantown, and a shter of Mrs. Jnck Mollly,
who was Audrey Kane before her marriage
Inst July, just before Lieutenant Mollly
went oversens. Miriam worked for n long
time over a year, if I'm not mistaken in
a hospital in France nursing soldiers, nnd
she had some wonderful experiences. Hhe
lias always been interesting, having gone in
quite actively for art at one time, nnd is
nlways on hand when there's anything of
this kind going on.
Old books, nutographed editions, French
posters and tho autographs of famous mu
sicians, painters uud authors arc to be sold
at this table. Others on the committee will
be Mrs. K. Earle Johnson, Mrs. Charles J.
MeManus, Mrs. .Tames Penrose Stovcll,
Sophie Bispham Weiss, Kleanor Collins,
Phoebe Hoffman and Mrs. Everett Brown.
THE welfare dances at the Ritz next week
will be for St. Agncs's House, 1238 East
Ontario street,' Kcnsingtorf. This neighbor
hood house was opened in October, 1017,
nnd it now has more than GOO chlldre . nnd
joung people on its register. There nre only
two small rooms for cluh, classes and
umusements, bo the committee in charge !
very eager to buy the adjoining building to
make room for it, and Bishop llhinelander
has appealed to the women's auxiliaries to
raise all of $0000 by next fall to do that little
thing nnd also keep the work going. So the
women are starting right in, and next week
will be a beginner.
Those who have charge of it aro: Mrs.
Edwin N. Benson, Jr., Mrs. Frederick AV.
English, Mrs. C. Bradford Fraley, Mrs.
Joseph M. Gazzam, Mrs. Arthington Gilpin,
Mrs. Herman Krumbhaar. Mrs. Arthur E.
Xewbold (who, by the way, is treasurer of
thfs special fund), Mrs. John II. Packard,
.Id, Mrs. Theodore S. Paul, ZIrs. James
Starr, Mrs. George C. Thomas, Mrs. Mar
maduke Tildcn and Mrs. Hollinshead Tay
lor, who is chairman. Others who are in
terested in the work arc Mrs. Charlton Var
nall (she's awfully Muteresled in the Bced
street house, too),. Mrs. ItadclifTe Cheston,
Mrs. Edward Farnum, Mrs. AVilliam AV.
Arnctt, Miss Anna Itandolph, Mrs. Floyd
Tomkins, Miss Sarah Tomkins, Mrs. George
McCrcary, Mrs. George AVoodwnrd, Mrs.
ISobert Coleman Drayton, Mrs. Arthur E.
Xewbold, Jr., Mis. Anthony J. Drexel Bid-
Ule, Mrs. Norman Ellison, Airs. Jonn ainr
koe, Mrs. Ellis Ames Ballard aud Mrs.
George F. Knorr. I don't know as yet who
is which, that is to say, who will be patron
esses on which days, but I'll no doubt hear
that later.
WELL, as I predicted, that was some
party last night at the Academy ol the
Fine Arts. The costumes were gorgeous.
Q You know Edith Dallas and Prim Beeves are
studying at the academy now, and they wer,e
both oa tho student committee in charge of
tho .affair. Edith is the daughter of the
Trevanion Dallases, you know, and a sister
of Betty Dallas, whose engagement to AVil
i Ham Davis Ten Brocck wns announced sev
eral weeks ago. She is an awfully clever
girl and has just that piquant charm you'd
expect from a girl of her talent and tempera
ment. Not that she's temperamental, for
she has tho sweetest nature, but she has the
kind of imagination that "sees pictures in
everything and stories dn every picture.
Austin Purves was also on tho committee.
' Ho is tho son of Mrs. Austin M. Purves, of
Chestnut Hill.
LET mo tell you the latest remark of the
four-year-old (one of the many four-
year-olds that you hear about every time
they say anything worth hearing). This is
' the one with short yellow curls and big dark
blue, eyes nnd a voice that makes you think
of sleigh bells tinkling from a far-distant
snowy road. She went shopping with,
Mother the other uay anu tney uougnt nu
kinds ot "stuff," as she calls all food, and
then they bought a little doll and a parasol
to keep tho sun out of her eyes, and then
they started home. And on the way they
passed another store, nnd in the window
there was a doll almost as big as she is, only
not quite, because she's pretty big now, and
it was a boy, and he was sitting at a table
in a high chair, and he had on a napkin,
aud a blue suit all starched, and shoes and
stockings, and in summing it ail up later to
the rest of the family the little silver voice
announced, "Ho was soma dressed up!"

N. Y. FRIENDS URGED .
TO KEEP PLEDGES
Baltimore Member Says Conscien
tious Objectors Serving Time
Are Martyrs and Heroes
'' York, May 20. The New" A'ork
Aenrly Meeting ot the Society of Friends
met in devotional session with a number
of speakers taking part. Albert It. Law
ton, of this city, wns tho first, laying
especial stress on the keeping of pledges.
A dollar note, he declared, was of itself
worthing nothing more than tho paper on
which it wns printed, its sole value being in
the pledge of the United Stntcs, which stands
back of it. The dress of the Salvation Army
lassie and the old-time "plain dress" of the
Friends were, in a way, pledges of the faith
of which they were indicative. He urged nil
Friends to make good the pledge made by
every member of the society.
Dr. A Edward Jnnnev. of Baltimore, folt
these pledges were taken too easilv, for
Cluistlni) living does not menn an easy life.
George Fox and AVilliam Pcnn did not lead
easy lives, but mngnificent in results. He
spoke of the "conscientious objectors" in
lort Lenvenworth for twenty years because
they tried to do right. "So we todny hnve
our heroes nnd our martyrs. If Fox and
Penn were living todnv they would be in
Leavenworth Prison. If Jesus Christ were
here He. too. would be there. There is need
of earnest Christian living today ns in the
past."
ALIEN FOE DEPORTATION URGED
Royal Arcanum Adopts Resolutions
Against Opponents of U. S. Laws
Atlantic City, May 20. Resolutions call
ing on Congress to enact laws providing for
the immediate deportation of all foreigners
found guilty of engaging in nets of bolshe
vism or kindred movements opposed to tho
American form of government, and to give
to the courts authority to cancel and annul
the decree of admission to citizenship and
subsequent deportation of all persons found
guilty of such nets, were passed in the
closing session of the forty-second annual
convention of the Supreme Couucil of the
Roynl Arcanum. AV. T. Dnbney, of Rich
mond, Va., was chairman of the committee
on patriotic work which framed the reso
lutions. AVomen are not to be admitted to the fra
ternity. A. S. Robinson, chairman of n
special committee, presented a report In
which ho said there did not seem to be a
general demand from any jurisdiction for the
admission of women 1 to full membership
with the men in the fraternity.

TRAVESTY FEATURES
FINE ARTS' BALL
Impressionistic Stuff, and Weird
Dancing Enjoyed in Frolic Called
"A Night on JVIars"
Just then something apparently female,
with n pair of tin tubes stuck out sidewise,
supposedly to servo ns ears, nnd with other
nppurtnnees slightly more familiar, but
most awfully unreal to look upon, glided
past.
"AVoll, yes, old top. I should rather sny
this ends it. One night on Mars like this,
you know well, he simply ca-a-an't stay in
form eh, what!"
Several hundred who attended the Penn
sylvania Academy of the Fine Arts frolic
last night will agree with the Autsics. There
is nothing to do but ngree. In the first
plncc those academy balls are alwnys good,
and art well, art is nrt. Hint's nil.
"A Xight on Mnrs" it was, and. be
lieve the janitor nnd the gatemen and every
body else, though tho affair was n most dec
orous one n Mich things go, if Mnrs wasn't
hobnobbing in the general celestinl latitude
ot Edith Marjory A'enus, Inst night, then
the Zodinc i bust and nothing is what it
seems.
The dance wns in charge 'of the following
committees: Mr. Richard T. Dooner, chair
man; Mr. (iideon Ilncricke, Mrs. Mnry
Townsend Mason, Sirs. 1'rcderick I). Mount,
Mrs. Kthcl llerrick Warwick, Miss M.
Theodora Hurt. Miss K. Corinne I'auli, Mr.
Ralph Iloypr, Mr. Horace AV. llnrdj, Mr.
S. AVnlter Xorris, Mr. Henry Troth, repre
senting the Fellowship, and for the students,
Mr. Otto J. Gaiter, chnlrnuini Mri. Sarah
I.angley, Miss Margaret Connor, Miss IMith
DnllasMiss Beatrice Kdgcrly, Miss Dorothy
Fulton, Miss Lucy Holt, Miss A'irginin
Parker, Miss Mary P. Reeves, Miss Gertrude
Scholl, Miss Annn Kntherine Stimson, Mr.
Harold Ilorvcy, Mr. AVnlter Josephs, Mr.
Julian Levi, Mr. Tsadore Levy, Mr. Kugcne
McXcrncy, Mr. AifUu Purees, Mr. Abra
ham Rnttner, Mr. Raphael Sabntiui.
In between dances there were some clever
stunts, presided over by Austin Purves
ns the chief guy on Mars. Raphael Sabatini,
dropping the mister and nlso his ballast, shot
into n very Martian scene from a moving
picture nirplnne, and mussed up the hearts
of tho foreigners generally. Virginia Parker,
as a Martian princess, drew n pale blue
parabola on the public consciousness, with
Miss Peggy Shoemaker and Miss Frauccs
II. Cams ns retainers. The chief guy had
Arthur Mcltzer and Conrad Dickel, for simi
lar duties, while Harry Kidd and Harriet
Lipscomb .were just Martians.
A think that looked like a huge woggle
bug nnd acted like an II. G. AVclls .hero of
the wildest apd agedest vintage, proved to
be Alfred Hayward, alias a Murtian, nnd al
most equal to n very bnd dream. lie danced
nnd pursued Corinne Pnuli, who, in n dainty
pink, looked much too mundane to be' wasted
on Martian appreciation. Mr. Ilnywnrd
does pictures about a stenographer for the
Evenino I'uolio Ledger, hut nobody
knows how he ever, gets that close to nature,
after seeing his antics last night.
In Shaky Moon
Helena Holt, as Diana in u moon that was
dellclously shaky, trembled and supplicated
nnd finally danced oh, so very much so
to lure Bert Hillman, believed to have been
Saturn or maybe Jupiter. The grace of this
number was remarked by nil present and
Miss Holt's special training, plus instinctive
rhythmic expression, wns just a little bit too
poignantly successful for the carthbouml.
Other interesting stunts were put on by
Miss' Pauline Rcid and Mr. Sabutiui,
Stephanie Ilalderston and Miss Dorothy Ful
ton, nnd a forest idyl of 'naive, youthful
charm was depicted by SIlss Rose Rosenbcry,
Mr, Rattncr, l'nul Froelicli and Isadoro
'Levy.
It was not easy to pick out faces well
known to Academy- circles, but now and
again, from a mare of color and gleaming
whlto shoulders iiud bizarre, although quite
masculine Murtlau uniforms, a few identi
ties wcro leurnccl.despito the make-up and

crowd with delight in beholding their screen
idols in the flesh, but the autograph and
the specihoH will alwajs he remembered.
A latologue of the stars of the occasion
is impossible, because many of the plnjers
were in the audience nnd did not appear
when called upon, although present.
Taylor Holmes appeared at the Xixon
before he went to the hall. GInd.s Leslie,
the charming blonde finin the A'itugrnph
studio, came oer from New A'ork with her
mother nnd Miss Walker. Ruth Roland.
June Caprice and Creighlon Hale appealed
for Pnthe. Another favorite was Kvelju
(ireelj, of the World Pictures, while Ginee
'Valentino appeared ns a Klein star. Her
bert Itawlinson was the reprosentntUo for
Independent. Ford Oheck came from the
Itotzw nod-Gold wyn studios.
Motion pictures were taken of the grand
march and the officials. Prize waltzes and
fox trots were eagerly contested for.
